MUSIC and the SOUL

music of rick calderone, steve parrish, michele statt

soaring

Maybe I’m soaring

Am I boring you?

 

Here comes some lying

Here’s what you’re buying into

It’s me it’s all about me

 

I’m a schmoozer caught smoking

The fake smile is just a token

 

I think, I think, I think…

 

I’m also a traitor

Defibrillator, my heart stops with you

Why can’t you hold on too?

 

I’m a loser but I’m joking

Try to say the word “love” and it’s spoken

Try to say the word “love” and it’s broken

 

I think, I think, I think…

 

Maybe I’m soaring over nickels dimes poring

 

It’s uplifting to think I was drifting just for life

Would you like to buy my life?

 

I’m a chooser of indifference it’s all insignificant

I think, I think, I think…I’ll soar into the void and toss my wares into the void it’s honest to avoid it’s honest to avoid

 

Where are you Brian?

I need some new chords to try in this song

Maybe I hope I’m wrong…

(Here come the sirens…

must be I’m trying hard to rewrite my song)

 

 

I’m a loser but I’m joking

Try to sing a song and I’m choking

Try to live my life when it’s broken

 

I think, I think, I think…

 

I think I’m dying

So this is dying…

thoughts

when i daydream or drift, i'm invariably alone...we play social roles to the extreme, but when it comes down to it...we're really by ourselves...

when i was in college at the grand university of Arizona, my great friend Brian Lasagna, helped me get over some musical fears (of course, at 3 in the morning on the mall in a philosophical and inebriated stupor, can you tell if anyone is there listening??) 10 yrs later, i was trying to find a musical re-connection...and i was reminded of ways to remove one's self from doldrums...

although the words are simple, i think this is my favorite song lyrically...
