Looking Glass
My Innocent, rises up to the dark times
A periscope of hope, helps me see
Flowing through the waves, blending with the rage
My Seeker, dreams of home and Penelope
Water calm, skies of blue, but danger lies ahead
Ponder what I said I'd do and what I did instead
Youthful possibilities, in an aging shell
Wish it were a mystery, but I know oh so well
I peer through my Looking Glass, it tells me of an omen
Full stop, drop the anchor, for a moment of reflection
Change course, reverse the exodus
It's perilous, but not too late
I spy with my little eye, the double-bind of her perfection
Bridge/Solo
Another epic concert to my audience of one
I want to share my music, and she's poured from the sun
The hardest part, she wants no part of me
My Seeker, sailing parallel with The Maiden
Will is strong, but as time goes on, a smile bending
Joie de vie abandons me, the second act is ending
Wish that I could hurry on a broken heart, slow in mending
It would make my weakness strong, if she would sing along
I've been at sea so long
Looking Glass, where do I belong?
I peer through my Looking Glass, it tells me of an omen
Full stop, drop the anchor, for a moment of reflection
Change course, reverse the exodus
It's perilous, but not too late
I spy with my little eye, the double-bind of her perfection

The Anger Sharks
04:33
|

Arising from the ashes, a second chance
Guided by a vision, three fateful men
They love your smiling faces, you’re a family
The lines that are forming, signs of prosperity
If you really need me, then why am I alone
It’s so confusing, three minds rule two worlds
The storm is coming, hide from the hail and the wicked rain
Just like before, once again
The Anger Sharks are swimming
Beneath a mask of learned serenity
Many, are the needs, of the frenzy
Masters of, the deep, blue, me
Beware the paradox of, independent men
Told to work together, as if all are one
Soon their darkest places, become collaborative
Instead of grand designs, the goal is simply just to live
Mad chaos ensues in the blink of an eye
You’re pre-exhausted, but don’t rest or you might crack
Compounding debt of reality
The anvil that broke the camel’s back
The Anger Sharks are winning
Fractured is the mask of learned serenity
The hungry needs of a past undone
Will feast on the needs of the few, or the one

Think For Yourself

Think For Yourself
Growing up, so many forces dominate your soul
It’s hard to separate the truth from what you’re told
Willful denial, will sabotage your goals
Clarify what you believe from what you have been sold
Think for yourself - Fight The Negative Thought Patrol
Think for yourself - Mind The Child to remain in control
Think for yourself - Direct pressure on emotional bloodshed
Think for yourself - Well done beats well said
Motivate yourself or the dream will suffocate
Come to terms with what’s been lost and all you hate
The weak choose to destroy, the strong live to create
Changes on the other side, flooding the gates
Think for yourself - Fight The Negative Thought Patrol
Think for yourself - Mind The Child to remain in control
Think for yourself - Direct pressure on emotional bloodshed
Think for yourself - Well done beats well said
Don’t set the precedent
Being fine with being ignorant
Brick by accursed brick
Tear down the wall
Accept your humanity
Reject the all-me society
Nothing new awaits you
Think for yourself

Go Time
04:32

How could this have come to be, such distance from reality
Such fear of parting ways with what's familiar
I want to live, so much to give
Parts of me are trying
Parts of me are lying
Go, Go
Time for me to
Go
Everybody
Go
Take sea, sail north
Battle on, carry forth
Chasing the horizon
Haven't seen land for days
It's go time, baby
It's go time, baby
Time for me to
Go
Everybody
Go!
Take sea, sail north
Battle on, carry forth
Scanning the horizon
What a waste of time
The mirror shows the facts of life
Eyes that wear the years of strife
Looking back at me with many questions
I check the clock, it's time to rock
Rock and Roll Forever!
For however long that is...
It's go time, baby
It's go time, baby
Time for me to
Go
Everybody
Stop!

Deck The Halls

Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Tis the season to be jolly,
Don we now our gay apparel,
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la la la la la la la
See the blazing Yule before us,
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Follow me in merry measure,
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la la la la la la la
Fast away the old year passes,
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Sing we joyous, all together,
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la la la la la la la
Fast away the old year passes,
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Sing we joyous, all…together

Jingle Bells
03:20
|

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight - yeah
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride, in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride, in a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune and a mess
We fell into a drifted bank
And then we got undressed
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride, in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride, in a one horse open sleigh
(solo)
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Loving me some Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride, in a one horse open sleigh

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh...You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He’s throwin’ some horns, whippin’ them drums
Three or four toots and rummy rum rums
Santa Claus is coming to town
Little toy dolls that cuddle and coo
He’s kickin’ their butts and bangin’ on fools!
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
So...You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus in coming
Santa Claus is coming to town

Girl U Want
02:58
|

She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits on the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drifts on down in a mist from above
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
You're in a corner everywhere you turn
You know you're headed for the planet of burn
But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
She's the real thing, but you knew it all along
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinning
Why don't you just admit it's all over
She's just the girl u want.
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits on the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drifts on down in a mist from above
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinning
Why don't you just admit it's all over
She's just the girl u want.
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl, the girl u want
She's just a girl, she's just a girl

Myth Pusher Austin, Texas
This album is over 20 years in the making with many of the primary riffs written between 88-94. I just never gave myself
permission to spend the time necessary to make something that sounded like what I was hearing in my head.
It is not perfect, but I know I genuinely did my best in putting this together. If old school rock is your thing, I hope you like it. Good bit of my soul in there.
