My staging ground for ideas I'm working on... Likely to be lots of stuff in various stages of completion. It will run the gamut, too - from experimental/abstract electronica to straight-ahed pop, proggish-rock to spoken word.

Story behind the song
Written for the first guy I ever dated. It was a brief but traumatic experience for me.
Lyrics
We met on a one-lane highway The midnight fog our only friend Two strangers with too much in common So many things I shouldn’t have said... Bruised by the stones of silence Drowned in this river of fear. We walk through the shadowed valleys A fog in our head as twighlight draws near If you want me to, I will run to you... We pass through the mountains ahead. Past fields and flowers of friends. You reach a fork in your life, I’d dance in your eyes but I’m already forgotten... If you want me to then I will run to you... How can you let me fall in love As you turn your back and walk away? The howling wind has lost its voice And the flowers call your name... We return to the fields and flowers, A waning moon lights your way Stone tears and words drop like nightfall... I give the mountain your grave. (One last time I stay) I would have run to you, if you wanted me to...
