So far, I have stuck to my guns about making all these songs/videos "one-takes," flaws and all. I think the piano is too loud in places, and, tragically, I sang "someone" instead of "no one" in the last chorus--which kinda undermines the "spin" of the song at the end. But...it is live...and good songs whisper in our ears that life can be better, right?

Happy Mother's Day 2007 to everyone! It's on special days like these I'm reminded of those who...well...aren't having as good a day as most of us will have--those who weren't lucky enough to be born from a wealthy womb.

My new friend David, at Nussentials, asked me to write a song for their "Feed the Kids" campaign, which is affiliated with Children, Incorporated. Here it is.

"No One"

Here I am
Just a boy with broken dreams
Just a child with stolen scenes
Of a better life somehow

Will you help
Or will you turn and walk away
Promise you'll come back one day
Can that day be now

'Cause no one hurts when I hurt
No one cries when I cry
No one knows the pain and cold I feel
No one even tries
No one sees when I shine
No one holds onto me
Could you be my no one now

Here I am
Just a girl out on my own
Barely holding on
To what hope's left inside

Will you help
Maybe you need someone too
Maybe I could help you through
Hand in hand, side by side

'Cause no one hurts when I hurt
No one cries when I cry
No one knows the pain and cold I feel
No one even tries
No one sees when I shine
No one holds onto me
Could you be my no one know

Poverty's a tragedy
I've been blessed, I know
These broken lives and saddened eyes
Could have been my own

So I'll hurt when you hurt
I'll cry when you cry
I'll know the pain and cold you feel
I'll be the one to try
I'll see when you shine
I'll hold onto you
I'll be your no one
I'll be your no one
I'll be your no one now
