LOOK ALIVE 03:23
you're right to ask which side of me is fine to be ok with this means i am blind and the fever dreams have reached a record high so dont mind me i'm off to live my life don't ever look away you're right to say that you are not so wise to think you could have angels on your side because i've fallen down here, i'm lookin for my mind i'm crawling down here, running out of time so don't mind me i'm off to look alive dont ever look away dont let them see you shake the waters fine where love is blind

SALTY TEARS 03:41
oh my god i got a song that cant be bought it's playing over on and on and it wont stop salty tears down through the years oh my god now what went wrong you drank from your piss pot salty tears i tasted every drop don't tell me its the end i never got to be your friend (whistle) back and forth through my door i've never seen this side of you before some are born abused by the storm they stood where they were dropped and they slept til they forgot which side they're on because the show must go on...

never thought i'd see the daylight come hear the early birds feel the birds on the morning breeze i'm out for a walk before the day is done splashing in the puddles jumpin in the leaves i'm out here livin my life i'm never going inside again into the great wide open, wanted dead alive no one will survive heart broken with your life on the line and your health in decline where the sun doesn't shine down where i'm not alright i'm not asking you why i forgot how to try i'm never going back inside again... ready or not here we come say i'd like to know where you got the notion to rock the boat, don't rock the boat baby, don't tip the boat over out in the great wide open, under the big blue sky i found myself confronted by a host of hungry eyes you know that freedom is what freedom does so don't look so surprised when they don't resist the very ones they've gotta fight hey i'm going back inside

we took the scenic drive over pyramid lands we've been stuck inside drawing out our plans growing eyes in the back of our hands it's nice to get outside and stretch our limbs don't take the sun away from me dont fake the fun when you're with me you fell out of a dream and landed softly as the sleep fell from my eyes from your eyes, they took the freedom from your eyes and no one here gets out alive

about

I had a hard time trying to name this one. I wanted to name it "FEARDOM" but felt it was too "poppy" for that name. I settled with WILLY NILLY because that phrase better sums up how i approach art and music.

This is my second release from self quarantine for my third week now. This album has obvious references to this Covid-19 craziness but it is meant as more of a time capsule than anything.

Also for some reason in THE PETTY OPTIMIST i referenced Tom Petty, don't know why...but i did...and also, for some reason i wanted to put the Hues Corporation in there too...so i did.

I really wanted to beef up the rhythm section for this album. I added many layers of percussive instrument and actually wrote the songs with the bass and drum first...then moved on to writing guitar and lyrics, etc.

I wrote all the lyrics in one sitting so the album as a concept means something to me...but it will be something different for everyone. Most wont make it passed the first song but for those who listen all the way through thank you... i love you.
