She's Crazy 04:19
She's crazy when she sinks a bottle He's lazy never seems to care. I know her - saw her with the Vicar Down under tables - broken chairs. She's crazy. She told me I would be the winner He told her he would turn the key I know that it would never happen She shows me other people dare. She's crazy. I'm lonely now that she is missing I wonder what will come of her She's holding bones where flesh is missing They'll never find his cigarette. She's crazy.

Midnight Blue a song for you or two So sleep in the night. Midnight Blue its up to you its true To show me the light You took all the lies away You showed me the light You taught me the Arrows Way Straight and true And you know I'm here for you Midnight Blue Midnight Blue I cannot find their truth In all of their lies Midnight Blue if only they were to open up their minds So far in the far away So deep in the blackened plane Dust lanes in the spiraling Midnight Blue

Something's right and something's wrong But nothing's no matter Something's in the air tonight Ghosts upon the stair. The cold accepts my stinging nerves The feeling something's wrong I would believe but something says this should not be wrong. I would whisper in reply and close the drapes and walk away "Nothing's down the hall..." This is I can not explain A "someone" in the air Something that must simply be ghosts upon the stair. I have heard this whispered down Down the silent hall I would whisper in reply to "nothings" down the hall

Drive My Car 04:10
Drive my car Down the darkest of avenues Drive my mind Through the darkness that runs through you Pass me by on your way to another fool Wave goodbye to my wreck on the avenue As the wind whips around me I have nothing to fear. As the road moves below me I'm free from you. Drive my car Into holes on the avenue Break my soul Keep my mind from you With my pain all around me I have nothing but tears With the world spinning from me I'm free from you. Drive my car Down the darkest of avenues. Drive my mind Through the darkness that runs through you. Break my soul Broken glass on the thoroughfare. Drive on by Pay no mind to the bodies there.

I hold your hand It feels so cold It's only time that passed and I was once so bold I hold your hand I touch your heart I find it hard to understand we're so apart We close our eyes and now we see The things we could not understand will set us free We watch the stars We search the skies We are alone Among the stars We look for truth with jaded eyes We fall into the memories keeping us apart We search the skies We watch the stars We fall into the distance keeping us apart I watch the stars I search the skies I am alone Among the stars

You've got something special and I like it. You've got that certain something Always one thing special You've got something special and I like it. You've got something going You've got something and I like it! You've got something special You've got something and I want it! It's not a passing feeling - can't deny it It's not a passing feeling - always fancy dreaming You've got something special and I like it!

One fine day I sat upon my lawn Just minding my own Just catching the sun Just innocent bliss My eyes were closing and my mouth agape When suddenly I did awake! To... Sticks with Hoods from yonder woods They stole my goods those Sticks with hoods Sticks with hoods from yonder woods In misery they taunted me. They haunted me! Someday I will get my just revenge I'll find those Sticks Those nasty Sticks
8.
Many times I have turned away from the light Forever tripping over excuses hatched in my mind And always falling flat on my face and wondering why And then I'm running from what has always been in plain sight! Remember good thoughts - good words - good deeds Simple words for the layman and for the wise Remember what is always in front of you in plain sight And try to put away all the selfish things for which we strive And look inside for all of the changes in your own life. Remember good thoughts - good words - good deeds Keep these words as your mantra for all your days And try to look for things in yourself when someone is to blame Remember hate is something created by our selfish ways And that our fears are following on the heels of the same! Remember good thoughts - good words - good deeds
9.
Forgiveness 03:13
We look within ourselves to face the darkness there To help us overcome the darkness everywhere Forgiveness - face the darkness everywhere We must listen to the trials of every man To feel remorse and seek the pain to understand Forgiveness - we must listen to the trial of every man We must face the ugliness of how these things began To hear the voice of others - if we can. When we find our inner peace we will concede To seek the stillness of our mind we can procede Stillness - we can now build peace. To be exiled from our selfish inner needs To find the solitude and build a world of peace Stillness - build a world of peace. Forgiveness - build a world of peace.

Thanatopsis 05:54
Did you ever hear something and thought it made sense But you thought again? That you've heard enough garbage and you've been taught To live by society's rules. Have you ever thought of living a billion years? Well my friend, follow me I won't steer you wrong and I think you'll see You're better off dead than alive. Have you loved or you lost You don't know - is love measured in social gains Or is it measured only by your dead remains? Or should you care if you don't love at all? Call for my god to assist me to take me away from this life Call for the dead will rise and you will see that everyone is soon to be free Taste the blood of men who were noble Is the taste any different from men of the poor? Aren't we all the same once we turn to dust? Is it love or is it lust that calls men home? Now you're gone from our world drink the blood of the here and hereafter Can you laugh at time and disguise your world with society? Is the ignorance hidden from those who can't see Thanatopsis? Challenge you soul to a duel of the here and hereafter! Now that you have entered death with me can you return to society? Where happiness is measured monitarily Or can you stay wise here in the dark? In the dark.

about

Well, hello then! This is a collection of songs both new and old that I have been wanting to release for a long, long time. In fact, the song, "Thanatopsis," was the first song I'd written (I was sixteen!). Then there are songs like, "Midnight Blue" and "She's Crazy" that are more recent and I hope reflect some form of musical maturity. Well, about as much musically maturity as I can muster. Fear not - for as old as they are they have all been re-recorded in sparkling, glamorous digital audio!

The songs are about my personal experiences and perspectives that have evolved over the years and I hope they bring some form of catharsis to your ears as the experiences they reflect have brought to my life.

This would be my fifth "solo album" as I see it. I hope you will find lots of variety here as I always try to mix things up a bit. Of course thanks go to so many people who've contributed to this album and sadly, they are too numerous to mention here. Suffice to say that I have lots of amazing friends and family who are always there to help out with my crazy projects. Thank the sweet Universe for them - and you - and I hope you like this enough to download it. I could use the money. But even if you don't...

Thanks for listening - !

Tony
