Periscope 1/8 -

I wrote a song on my new piano, but it's so hard to video it.

It's also, it turns out, hard to throw together a guitar version when I've only ever known it on piano.

Anyway, I'm throwing the lyrics up here for now...let me know your thoughts!

I took in years of mourning...still I never saw a light.

And you're saying sorry as you exit slowly;

Covering your eyes.

His apologies, like these sorry beers we drink to forget the evening.

Remember the days you'd close your eyes for a minute,

Just to hide from the moment?

Silence speaks to me, in these lonely nights we keep.

I'm listening.

You're shifting blame but I know the story;

I'll let you have your way.

And you're just a ghost now, but you used to know me,

And shelter all we had.

Your excuses to Stay, to Try, to Leave;

They were never lost on me...in naive misery.

Remember the days you'd close your eyes for a minute,

Just to hide from the moment?

Silence echoing, oh I used to know that face, now a memory...

I'm listening.
