spring, full blast

I missed my acoustic guitar. I kind of took a break of sorts after New Years, and i just picked it back up again and have been writing like crazy.
So i've got this new little song i've been working on I'm calling Prom, and you can probably guess what it's about! I have to say it's a lot more upbeat than a lot of the songs i've written for acoustic guitar. Here are some words from it!


it's freaking me out that my heart is done
with all of its searching
i'm so sick of waiting for May to come
and greet us with
a reason to dress up and waste our time
time that's never coming back
so hold me tight till it feels right
and shake that ass.

oh i've got news for you
my darling dear.
and oh, i will wait for you
cuz this is love
and you are not right here
next to me.
but you will be.


like i've said numerous times, the weather has a direct correlation with my inspiration for writing stuff. It's that time of year where the air is getting warmer with the constant rain and flowers are coming out of all their hiding places. I haven't taken any walks yet, but if you know me, i do that often and that is where most of my songs come from- if i'm stumped on a lyric or melody, i take a walk and let it follow me.

Well, Spencer's in Idaho or Michigan or something, so i'll probably be going to some party out of town with Stephen Reichelt tonight.

keep it real!

ps. Jack's Mannequin for the sixth time next week! Yeah!
