Grey Matter

The balance between black and white is grey
But who wants to live that way?
Who wants to live that way?
The yin and the yang the big and the bang
To get the sun I'll take the rain.
Give me love and I'll take the pain.
Moderation
Can't fall in love in moderation
Excess leaves to inspiration
Intoxication to salvation
Too much not enough hoarding more stuff
Fear knows the fat man's name
Hunger's just part of the game
The razor's edge one foot on the ledge
The fine line between love and hate
The distance between now and too late
Moderation
Can't fall in love in moderation
Excess leaves to inspiration
Intoxication to salvation
Moderation
Everything in moderation
That includes moderation
Please excuse my exageration
Who wants to be Malcolm in the middle?
Mediocre, middleclass, the mean
Wanna be the pop punk, hot chick, cool hunk
Rage against the machine
The best they've ever seen
Your face up their on the screen
The wave of light, all points in between
I know you know what I mean
Moderation
Can't fall in love in moderation
Excess leaves to inspiration
Intoxication to salvation
Moderation
Everything in moderation
That includes moderation
Please excuse my excitation
The balance between black and white is grey
But who wants to live that way?
Who wants to live that way?

NEVER NEVER
Never never never gonna feel me
Never never never know the real me
Never filter through your mentality
Never touch your mind to my reality
Always in the middle of the night
Have a great big drag out fight
Always when I wanna feel all right
Leave you out of mind and of sight
I'd love to stay with you my dear
If I could get through all of the fear
So easy take the vow promise "I do".
So cheesy when it's time to say "I love you"
but I do.
Never never never gonna see me
Never never never gonna be me
Never speak in tongues universally
Never break the bonds of my mortality
Like to share what´s trapped inside of me
Words can´t tell true colors just degrees
Look outside as far as I can see
God is that you staring back at me
Never never
Never never
Never never

ORGANIZIZED
Em Bm
Some promise change you can believe in
Others simply say they´ll keep ya breathin
I´ve thought myself into a corner
D
I know I don´t wanna live this
A

Some say read my book and I´ll remake you
Come on hold my hand and I will take you
Only thing that I know for certain
Sure as hell don´t wanna live this way
-------------------------------------
CHORUS I
Bm G
Some day I´m gonna get organized
D A
Work that gut gonna exercise
Bm G
Quit the smokes get eight hours sleep
G A
Time to take the leap
Jump into the deep
Time to plant a seed
-------------------------------------
Em Bm
Tried twelve steps thirteen steps you name it
Inner sinner child so hard to tame it
I´ve cried yourself into a corner
D
I know I don`t wanna live
A
this way
Promises to myself so quickly broken
Late night resolutions must be jokin
Best laid plans could use a little tweakin´
Sure as hell don´t wanna live this way
-------------------------------------
CHORUS II

Never had a bestest bud
Not Geoff or Don or Barry Rudd uh-huh
They were good friends I must say
Don't know where they are today uh-huh
Girls and friends would come and go
Some were nice others no uh-huh
Pretty much took what I got
Guy that were cool chicks that were hot
No man's an island.
I'm a peninsula
No man's an island
I am Iberia
No man's an island
Just call me Michigan
I'm as free as a tree
Now i go two great kids
Best thing that I ever did uh-huh
Life slips by while you' re makin' plans
Ask my baby, "who's the man?" uh-huh
Don't wanna be all on my own
Sure do love spending time alone uh-huh
Master of my own domain
No one to fight or to blame uh-huh
No man's an island.
I'm a peninsula
No man's an island
I am Iberia
No man's an island
Just call me Michigan
I'm as free as a tree
In Spain the saying is well know
if the company sucks better being alone
This not meant to offend
But life's too short for too many friends
No man's an island.
I'm a peninsula
No man's an island
I am Iberia
No man's an island
Just call me Michigan
I'm as free as a...
I'm as free as a...
I'm as free as a tree

SHT Musik Valencia, Spain
Like the Lettermen segment from whence comes the name of this project, these are my stupid human tricks. They are simple
home recordings done almost always as a one-man band.
Mostly the songs are about the human condition, my personal trials and tribulations with inner demons and addictions, and anything else that I find interesting or amusing.

This is one of my favorite albums when it comes to cute, catchy little songs that I just never seem to get sick of. I recommend the song "The Symmetry".

Unicorns Get More Bacon
by Marc With a C
The title track, Unicorns Get More Bacon, is hilarious. If you are a performing musician I think you can really relate to this song.
go to album
new alhambra
by elvis depressedly
I love all of the Elvis Depressedly albums. The main member of this group, Mathew Lee Cothran, is also the frontman for Coma Cinema which is worth checking out if you like Elvis Depressedly.

Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp).

Polished dancepop from Honeymoan with sky-high vocal melodies surrounded by sparkling guitars.

Giddy and ramshackle bedroom indie pop bursting with buoyant guitars and summery vocal hooks.
