transformations
friends,
tonight is episode 726.
some songs from past and present,

it's difficult at times
to be in the moment,
+ to see value in things
we'd rather weren't the case.
i'm thankful yr here,
+ hope you'll - join me.
the songs:
- i like to keep it low (don't even try, 2012)
- shutters (demo2, 2020)
- footprints (demo, 2020)
love,
russell

empty spaces
friends,
episode 723 is here!
it features two versions of a minor melody.
these're the lyrics i like a bit better:
empty spaces
consider it concluded
won't you let me go?
the endless, pointless, torture
so psychological
i read things slow dear,
and wonder,
my stories shift in place
at times they're wrong,
yes, tho they're gone
i'm still with you in ways
all this talk of moving forward
advice i can't take
chance brought me opportunity
then buried it in faith
<solo>
that's love i think,
staying open
to what we'll never find
the planets soar,
in orbits more
distant all the time
the songs:
- chicklet (demo, 2020)
- empty spaces (demo, 2020)
- another earth (don't even try, 2012)
i'm thankful yr here,
and hope you'll - join me.
love,
russell

p.s. -
upon consulting the (more) formal definition,
this is - codependency,
+ this is - narcissism.
