Tired Eyes 03:45
3-20-2021 You put your heart in my hands I know it hurts real bad We can share all the pain The darkness and the rain Stay with me through the night We don’t have to use the light We don’t even have to talk I know the dark consumes us all You have tired eyes Don’t apologize There’s no need to hide You have tired eyes I haven’t even said a word I know that’s absurd I’m just stuck inside my head Waiting for my thoughts to rest You say you’re waiting on me You want to know what I believe Do I think that it gets better Do your question have answers (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

Stay 03:51
3-12-2021 What are you waiting for? It’s all about the timing We were here before But you can’t ever find me I guess I should have listened When you said that it was missing Just to talk to you Feels so strange I’d give it back to you I’d give it all away I’d give it back to you If you’ll stay I’ll give it back to you I’ll give it all away I’ll give it back to you, now If you’ll stay I can tell by your actions It’s hard to figure out What can I do to show you I’m not better now How can I get through to you I guess it matters now And I promise to you I’ll drink this all away "I wrote this in 2006 or so. I jam on it occasionally. Headphones and such are because I was jamming on stuff a d wanted to see what the acoustic sounded like through these headphones. This isn’t the feed from the mixer." (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

2-20-2021 I was on your side I don’t know how you missed it Now I’m dead inside Can you be a witness? Thought that you were mine Now I’m just a victim, Of what you left behind You still leave me speechless Someone’s on my mind Yeah It’s you "I wrote this in 2017 and have played it off and on. I finally had to change the guitar on the chorus to stop my fingers from jamming up. Tiffany, I know this is the only one of my songs that you like so I hope I didn’t ruin it." (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

I'm Alright 02:47
2-1-2021 I don’t know, how you sleep If you’re alright, inside And our eyes, they did meet I watched them smile, I watched them shine I don’t know, what it’s like, To say goodbye I was denied I sit around and watch the stars But they don’t shine, like your eyes I’m alright There’s something more, to this life So they say I think they’re lying And I know, what it’s like, To be out of sight, out of mind And I know, how to lie I can fake, a thousand smiles Turn around, and close your eyes Close them tight I’ll say goodbye I’m alright (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

Shine On Me 03:40
10-27-2020 I am shattered, I am lonely The rain it pours down on me I am lost please come find me I guess I’ll never understand How the sky could take you from me I’ve arranged all that I’ve seen If I could leave with your blessing I’m sure the sun would shine on me It’s not the silence I wanted I’ve exposed all my secrets You’ve seen the darkest side of me It wasn’t for you to leave (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

Misery 03:29
9-17-2020 I guess I shouldn’t hate you I need to learn to let things go And here’s another breakthrough Here’s another night alone I don’t want your sorrow I don’t want your pain I’m writing to myself here now Please just go away I just want to say I’ve been so ashamed Please don’t ease my pain Please don’t ease my pain I just want to be Left here in misery Please don’t rescue me Please don’t rescue me I can just pretend I do it every day It’s not the words the hurt me It’s the silence that stings And maybe if I bleed for you You’ll notice I’m still here And if I were to die right now Would you even care "Super old, 2004, and super rough. Never did anything with it in the past 16 years." (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

9-15-2020 They all say to her She’s too pretty to be crying When she looks in the mirror All she sees is a lie No one knows what she does at night No one knows how hard see fights No one knows what she fears the most No one knows how much she cries I don’t want her to hurt anymore Why am I the one who bites my tongue She lives life through her friend All she wants is one true friend Why don’t we joke she says Why does life hurt so bad? "Episode two of Luke is changing songs that people didn’t like for one reason or another. This one is a little different because the lyrics are some of the most liked that I’ve written. A lot of people relate to it. However my performance has never quite lived up to that. This is the fourth or fifth re-write since I wrote it circa 2017. There is one slight lyric change. The vocal structure on the verses has changed dramatically but the chorus is largely the same. The guitar structure got got a major change but weirdly the bones are still there." (FB VIDEO SOURCED)
9.
9-15-2020 Forgive me If I seem distant Forgive me I promise I’m listening Forgive me We will talk all night Forgive me Are you alright? I want to sleep I want to sleep Heaven is calling me Forgive me I’m not alright Forgive me It’s been a long time Forgive me If I stay silent Forgive me If I don’t hide it "Episode one of Luke is making changes to old songs he wrote that people didn’t really care for. In this episode this is a song from 2010 or 2011. Emotional wounds were still fresh after a suicide attempt and then being admitted to the psych floor three months later so people likely weren’t fond of the lyrical content. There was quite a bit of change in the lyrics this time and some minor guitar changes." (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

5-18-2020 I’m jealous of the rain That falls upon your skin It’s closer than my hands Have been Oh I’m jealous of the rain I’m jealous of the wind That ripples through your clothes It’s closer than your shadow Oh I’m jealous of the wind 'Cause I wished you the best of All this world could give And I told you when you left me There's nothing to forgive But I always thought you'd come back, tell me all you found was Heartbreak and misery It's hard for me to say, I'm jealous of the way You're happy without me "Let’s try this again but more natural and less forced. My take on Labrinth “”Jealous” I used their lyrics but wrote my own guitar part. Also I only used one verse and the chorus. I’m sure I’ll end up deleting this one too but figured I’d share for now."

I was looking at them as I was going through unused lyrics a couple weeks back and put them in my pile to work on and then a couple days ago Travis uploaded a version from a jam session from 2014.

A few things -This is a cheap keyboard and the keys clack and the sustain kind of feeds back -I looked up how to play one chord and messed around from there -This is basically a progress update for those who know I’m doing this and curiosity seekers -I’m going to cut my tonsils out myself so air can flow and I won’t sound like I have a cold all the time Cassandra Jannan Andy I think you are the ones who know about this endeavor."

Autistic 02:38
5-26-2019 She doesn’t ever try He always makes her cry He’s strung out again And she expects it She doesn’t want to risk it He doesn’t mind he listens They’re afraid of faking love So how’d it get so bad He’s autistic She’s acoustic Non-electric Who’s to blame He is faking She’s enchanted Taking chances It’s all the same How’d they make it through the night It’s just another fight He doesn’t like the light So she pulls the shade down She’s afraid to cry He always wonders why Is it worth staying When they’ve wasted all this time "This was Tara’s favorite of my songs. I rarely play it and I’m sure it sounds shitty and sloppy but whatever. She would have been like “You need to stop being so hard on yourself. I wish you could see how talented you are.” And I would have been like “I guess...” then we would have moved on. Unfortunately you moved on forever and left me. I’m missing you extra lately."

3-1-2019 I think I’m bitter now because, I’m striking out I think I’m bitter now because, I’m striking out Flames have gone out Flames have gone out We could go out It wouldn’t be me Times are better now I was high before Now I’m low again Flames have gone out Speak to me Speak to me now I’m unclean She’s serene Gotta cut back now ‘Cause I don’t want to drown Going to cut back now It’s a promise I made "This is from 2008 when my over abundance of alcohol use was becoming less of a joke and more of a serious issue. Things were catching up to me mentally and emotionally and little did anyone, including myself, know this would be a prelude to the quick deterioration of my mental health and the birth of a pill addiction, worse alcoholism and the first of many suicide attempts. Outside of one small part of this song which incidentally is the part that subtly mentions my alcohol use this song is about someone who wanted a relationship with me but I declined because I felt as if I would be a bad influence on her and I didn’t want that on my conscience. I didn’t want to being a happy person into my dark place and corrupt them. The part about the alcoholism is about a friend who challenged me to do things like play open mic sober and to not drink so much in general because it was starting to scare her. I think I went 3 months without drinking and I showed myself that I could be sober and play in front of people. I probably never thanked her and she probably doesn’t remember so Sky, thank you for pushing me and making me prove to myself that I could do that." (FB VIDEO SOURCED)

2-24-2019 I’ve been so alone I was reaching for your hand We were sitting in your bedroom and You said you understand I feel so burnt out The bleeding never ends I’ve never worked so hard to Get back to where I am Cross my heart Please don’t die The moment I leave here You’ll be sad again I’ve been thinking that We have different hearts And your silence tells me that We might fall apart You’ve never been so distant I can see it in your eyes, just Put your arms around me Make me feel secure (FB VIDEO SOURCED)
36.
2-6-2019 I guess I never told you I held it in too long How could I tell you That you were the world And I need direction But you’re not here to guide me There’s something in the silence When you were here beside me Just say the word I’m barely holding on I don’t know how to face this Since you’ve been gone There’s something in your smile There’s something in your eyes You don’t what it feels like To spend the day with you All of that was taken I never said goodbye If you’re living in the shadows Just give me a sign (FB VIDEO SOURCED)
