Like I always do

It was supposed to be a love song, but ended up being something I wrote literally 10 minutes before we unexpectedly split for the first time. As the next two months dragged us through the mud, this song was never able to be given as was intended, since the way it was intended to be received had been wholly changed. Luckily, I generally write songs intending universality and retain their inspiration esoterically.

This song, along with my whole new album, now serve as the wind of old Ghosts fluting their way through the canals of this record in time; singing to me as sirens sing to seafarers; always seducing me to shipwreck my spirit on jagged memory or learn to ride the waves.

I did not listen to this song for about six, almost seven months, and I've forgotten entirely how to play it though I will quickly learn; however, a newly mastered album deserves a whole listen, and I've fallen back in love with this song all over again.

Within two months, should you wish, you will be able to own the emotion this song conveys, along with eight other songs from a record of time which was once called, "My Mind in Sound" and evolved to now, more appropriately, be titled as, "Last Year's Ghosts".

Listen to the brittle raspiness of one of last year's Ghosts singing like only ghosts can at the blue link embedded in the following song's title atop it's lyrics.

I hope you enjoy this song even half as much as I do, thank you for staying in touch on here - and now....

Back to You

Take that gun from off your lips & ask me to dance/ use the spiders in your veins, crawl up & take a chance/ oh I know the old clock is ticking at our graves but I swear if you just hold me I'll keep you safe// and what will I do when death comes to take me from you? I'll run like I always do right back to you// Take that fire in your mind to keep us warm/ use the poison in your smile, you know it's such a charm/ and I know all your fears but I swear if you reach out I'll be right here// and what will I do when death comes to take me from you? I'll run like I always do right back to you - and lady of mine, where's that fear been leading you? Here's all I am, go on & take it all with you// Take that valley in your frown that holds my whole world, fill it with an ocean & I'll fill it with pearls/ and I know it feels like the sun won't rise again but I swear if you just kiss me this will all end/ lady of mine where's that fear been leading you? Here's all I am, go on & take it all with you// and what will I do when death comes to take me from you? I'll run like I always do right back to you/ Like I always do, right back to you/ like I always do, back to you
