I hope you enjoy!

peace, jamie

Oh yeah…Here’s the lyrics…

Everything is Nowhere

Music in my head but I can’t hear it
Dreaming I awake but nothing’s clear
I only see what I want to see
I can only be what I want to be
Climb the nearest mountain just to get myself high
Disbelieve the truth just to hold on to the lie

I am not dreaming
I am awakening
I am not even trying
I am not where I find
the pieces I have left behind
the colors painted in my mind
Everything is nowhere all the time

Everything you told me now it haunts me
Seasons look behind them and they taunt me
I only dream what I want to dream
Sometimes it just makes me scream
Run into the darkness now full speed ahead
Running from the demons with my eyes all red

Lost in Seattle (Original Song)

jamie2 Comments

This song was inspired by personal experience. A cute hippie girl slipped me a dose on a hot summer day at a Dead show…hours later I found myself wandering aimlessly…a “Fear & Loathing in Seattle” experience, complete with the Space Needle dancing along to the drums. I recently told the story about it on a BlogTV show I was doing, and it inspired me to write about it.

I hope y’all enjoy it…

peace, jamie

ps.I posted the lyrics to this song a few days ago (look down).

I went to an open mic last night…played a few songs and met a few new friends…Andrew, Brian, Valerie good to meet you guys. I’m going to have to do that more often…maybe there’ll be a bit more of an audience next time…js.

I am working on a video for “Lost In Seattle” to get it up on YouTube for tomorrow as well. I still can’t remember all the words…lol. Don’t tell anyone you see me peeking at the lyrics on film. sshhhhh! 😉

Hope to see everybody tomorrow night on the big show…be sure to sign up and subscribe here so you can get all the announcements (no spam…promise!)

peace, jamie

“Anything” (Original Song)

jamieLeave a comment


Here’s the latest YouTube video. This was actually just a jam that turned into a new song. I had to listen to it quite a few times before deciding to release it.

The words were really just an improv and I wasn’t sure I really liked it…but after a a long debate, I decided to let YOU decide.

I hope you enjoy it…let me know what you think.

peace,
jamie

6 String Belief (Son Volt Cover)

This is one of my favorite Son Volt songs, and I think Jay Farrar is one of my favorite songwriters…so it’s fitting that this gets to be my first cover song posted here.

Thanks to MyDeath420 for the idea.

I hope y’all enjoy. peace, jamie

“Everytime You Fall”

I recorded this song during a BlogTV broadcast…and I did a good job of mangling the actual words and making up a few new ones to fit. It felt good while I was playing it though, so I decided to share it.

The actual lyrics are below…enjoy!

Every Time You Fall

Well Ive been thinking about a lot of things lately
You know I really cant say why
And Ive been thinking about all the things I used to know
Ive been wondering if it aint just a great big lie

Then the sun comes up and the moon goes down
And I wonder if it means anything at all
And the one thing that you know is it gets a little harder
Holding back the tears, from every time you fall

Well Ive been laughing about the things I find funny
But Im really trying not to cry
And Ive been wondering about the reasons for the suffering
In between the time when were born and die

Then the sun goes down and the moon will hide
And the darkness of the night makes you feel so small
And the one that you know is it gets a little harder
Every time youre getting up from every time you fall

Well Ive been dreaming about tomorrow just a little bit
Brighter than the day before
And Ive been praying for peace and a little understanding
Just a little less hunger, a little less war

Then the sun goes down and the missiles fly
Or a car blows up, some bodys children dying
And the one thing that you know is it gets a little harder
Holding back the tears from every time you fall

“Slip Away”

I wrote this song quite a few years ago, about one of those relationships that come and go so quickly….before you even know you were in it.

I tried to keep the footage pretty simple and raw…somehow it seemed better that way. I hope you agree.
