Monsters and zombies live inside my head,
feed upon my chamber like leaches.
Parasites and sycophants disregard my reason.
I wait in hiding,
I'm hunted.
When the leaves begin to turn and daylight hides its face,
it must be December again,
I'm bitter like the air.
My escape to hibernate killing me again,
keep my cave dark and sealed,
your virus cannot find me.
Distance and silence I offer to myself,
static fills my head,
I'm cold again.
When the leaves begin to turn and daylight hides its face,
it must be December again,
I'm bitter just like you.
Welcome to my world,
I love what you've done to the place.
I miss the silence,
I'm cold again.

You said I was something and took away my pain,
then words ran out and you had your doubts,
took those words away.
It's not up to me to say the words that you wanted to hear,
and it's not up to me to do the thing you want me to.
It's not up to me to do the things that I can't do.
She said she was tired and made me sleep alone,
then time ran out and she left me out,
and on with her life she went.
I thought I could leave all these words behind.
the motives were clear in the voices I hear,
echoing in my mind.
Delicate voice with words to flatter,
a porcelain face I wish to shatter.
Pieces of us that seemed to matter,
velvet skin to bruise and batter.
I said, you said, she said, we said.
Get away from me,
stay away from me.
Stay away.
You touched the hand that cradled my sperm,
and I was looking down to watch you squirm.

evergreen Altamonte Springs, Florida
I'm Jeff. Musical ideas oftentimes find my head, some of which feel natural/authentic and some of which feel nurtured/borrowed. At times, a blank canvas and record button yield magic. Other times, the sounds take patience to develop. The ideas range from very basic to very complex. These are the recordings I wish to share with you. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have. ... more

This guy's pretty much the reason I'm back at writing/recording from home. His approach to music making/sharing is extremely humble, practical, & insightful to me in this era of digital file sharing.
