that's home

this is a product of homesickness, nature deprivation and too many hours awake writing. This combo creates a kind of wicked hysteria that makes one go deathly pale and look like they haven't showered in days. that's my excuse, at least.

that's home

in a tree-filled grove i spent my days
arms wrapped around, hands sticky from the sap of a great pine tree
or out on the beach, gulls overhead
boy grommets summing up the swells, surfing
that's home, that's home

born I was, I was born a long way from here

in a parking lot, loud beastie boys
with a cold slurpee, having nothing to do but nothing
bad TV, too hot to eat
so you're in the river with fishies
That's home, that's home

'this is a product of homesickness, nature deprivation and too many hours awake writing.'

@doogey9 haha - so true, and i really do feel that a lot of times my angst makes my writing so much better. its too bad it has to be that way, but, oh well, gotta just embrace the pain and love it;-D

I am sorry you feel homesick but this song is great- love that strum :)

[owlphanumeric]

@UnluckyMum sadness is my dearest friend, it inspires me. I don't miss it when it isn't present, though ;-)

Have you changed your hair recently? It is looking particularly rad =]

I like when you make music.

i'll chip in to get you back home (states right?) so we can jam electro/uke songs. but remember... i'm cheap. i can maybe get you a ride on a slow boat filled with questionable cargo. or a twenty towards another means of travel. ;0) sorry you have the blues but it spawned a lovely song. you are a talented songwriter.
