Revenge Is An Octopus 03:35
lyrics

You’re dead and you can’t give anymore Between is a little thing Hold it by the sun with kerosene Watch it turn….. The mirror sees the morning, aaah the way she sings Me and you let’s take the other road Between is a little thing Hold it by the sun with kerosene Watch it turn….. The mirror sees the morning, aaah the way she sings My cigarette is burning in her mouth It’s getting hot, getting so hot You’re dead and you can’t give anymore Between is a little thing Hold it by the sun with kerosene Watch it turn….. The mirror sees the morning, aaah the way she sings

Elysium 07:12
lyrics

I miss you already and you haven’t even gone The space that you fill will forever be empty… With you not around You are the bright sunflower in my dreary head When the wind takes your petals away the rest of the rainbow… Is lost in the dark Peacefully, watching me, whispering these words… There’s a place for you right next to me my love It’s a matter of fact that we all turn to dust Some a little faster than the others… In finding their way back To the sound of the echoes above Repeat chorus I can’t take this no more The door’s slamming shut on everything I know Let me ride outta here with my hat on ( Repeat chorus I’ll wait, I’ll wait far away I’ll wait for a someday…I’ll wait for a someday that brings me to you I’ll wait for a sign to signal the end of this waiting….I can’t wait to see you To the ends of the earth we will go…..fire up the rockets we’ll ride em’ home We’ll ride them home (repeat)

They Get You When They Wanna 03:16
lyrics
buy track
It’s the fire seeping into the flame There’s a black bird flying into your hand Into the lake It’s hard to be true Wings are falling from the sky Your body’s unsung; they get you when they wanna It all was a dream The battle never came War torn lover Don’t ever leave me to die It’s a fire burning into my veins And the blackbird has something to say Down in the deep end of the life that I knew Into the lake It’s hard to be true Wings are falling from the sky Your body’s unsung; they get you when they wanna It all was a dream The battle never came War torn lover Don’t ever leave me to die

On My Mind 04:10
lyrics

Hotels on my mind You’re so hard to find Goodbye everybody I’ll see you down the line One drop or two to feel better I feel better when I’m with you Now it comes down…..to this baby Some little bell rang my door Shattered the walls that kept me warm Nobody tells another one baby… How to bring all your love to the table I realize I cannot tell if what I said was right or wrong I hear your bell from a thousand miles away Time to recognize what’s falling through our conversation Now all I’m living for is you, just you Some little bell rang my door Shattered the walls that kept me warm Nobody tells another one baby… How to bring all your love to the table I realize I cannot tell if what I said was right or wrong Hotels on my mind You’re so hard to find Goodbye everybody I’ll see you down the line Did I treat you well? I’ve been getting worse here and it’s on all sides Teardrops and a gun can lead to a flower Some little bell rang my door Shattered the walls that kept me warm Nobody tells another one baby… How to bring all your love to the table I realize I cannot tell if what I said was right or wrong Hotels on my mind You’re so hard to find Goodbye everybody I’ll see you down the line

We Won't Cry At The Burial 05:28
lyrics
buy track
Weeds blow out on the whipping plains Voices of so many of them who’ve been here before You’ll never find anyone whose heart’s broken so many times Don’t need this feeling anyhow the sound is getting softer now They don’t cry around here After so many cold nights the chill disappears You’ll never find anyone whose heart’s broken so many times Don’t need this feeling anyhow the sound is getting softer now We won’t cry at the burial (repeat) We won’t cry, we won’t cry Time may be turning away Laugh if you knew him and tell a good joke in his name You’ll never find anyone whose heart’s broken so many times Don’t need this feeling anyhow the sound is getting softer now We won’t cry at the burial (repeat) We won’t cry, we won’t cry…..round here Weeds blow out on the whipping plains We won’t cry at the burial (repeat) We won’t cry, we won’t cry We won’t cry at the burial (repeat) We won’t cry, we won’t cry…..round here *Background vocal on final chorus Now that I’ve lost you, you can remember me Now that you see me as I really am When you see me, you will know my name

David Gergen Los Angeles, California

I write and record music by myself in my studio in Los Angeles. Sometimes they are songs, other times they are experimental instrumental tracks. Whatever the outcome may be, I am always recording.
