I got a picture in my head of how I wish it could be I can’t any rest until I make you see I got a picture in my head of how I wish it could be And I held on so tight to mistakes of my past I gripped the moment so hard it shattered like glass Held on so tight to mistakes of my past Now there’s a way that it can be Something about letting go to destiny I want to be the man who opens doors for you If this was an Ergs! song I’d offer you a context clue But you wouldn’t get it… I’ve got a picture Gotta pictures in my head Gotta picture in my head

you say we made our bed now lie but I say you do not decide the way we take our path in life you jail those who take a stand but those who go and steal our land are bailed out and given a hand sixteen tons and what do you get…another day now we’re in the chains of debt wondering how we lost this bet but it wasn’t us gambling away mortgages and 401 ks those of you who we elect are paid by us to serve and protect not to sell your soul and our respect to be a special interest pet sixteen tons and what do you get another day older and deeper in debt yes another day older and deeper in debt the credit card’s the company store and we’re shackled once again as before the only crime that I could see would not be standing up for your beliefs so stand for those who cannot speak and stand for those who cannot see and stand for me and stand for you and stand for he who screams it’ll be alright you’ll see, it’ll be alright you see oh, it’ll be alright you see oh, little one won’t you see that it’ll be alright it’ll be alright

Wasting my time shouldn’t be dreaming of you Wasting my time for something I’ll never do It’s a deadly sin that I just want it so bad A deadly sin and it’s driving me mad Wasting my time running away from you Wasting my time I can’t make it through It’s a deadly sin that I just want it so bad A deadly sin and it’s driving me mad Solo Wasting my time running from you Hiding away what could I do? Wasting my time running from you You held the answer And I get the clue

I’m so bent out of shape I’m thinking of all the things that we should do But I feel so out of place oh yeah Holding my hands and touching the beaches with you It’s like LA LA land came and it kissed us On our sweet little cheeks you’re a mistress I’ve been here and you’ve been there all the time Seashore will bring in the memories the margaritas will take them away Before we know we’ll forget what to say The tides they come in they come out they go Sounds like the fun we had in the snow We’re jet setting around all over the world But I’m so bent out of shape oh yeah I wish this was my life and it could take place The only way I think I could explain would be to show you what I feel So play a little solo give you a clue Solo Do it go back in and make it happen my friend Tinsel town is full of dreams we can never fool around I’ll take it home I’ll write about it I’ll give you a little call on the phone But you’ll just have to let me on down

I’ve been dreaming of yesterday And all the games we used to play I’ve been thinking of yesterday And it’s better than today I knew you’d always go I knew you wouldn’t stay I knew it wasn’t so Life’s just not that way Solo I’ve been dreaming of yesterday And all the games we’d play I’ve been thinking of yesterday and it’s better than today

and when the stars of snow fall in the yard I hope you’ll keep warm and when the stars of snow fall in the yard when loneliness creeps with the breeze that blows through the trees how I hope you’re keeping warm and when the stars of snow fall in the yard loneliness filters through the gloom sometimes loneliness grows but I’m always just a phone call away I hope you’ll call when the stars fall of snow when the stars of snow fall in the yard we can argue fuss and fight and you recall the one who I remind you of and when you argue fuss and fight and figure everything’s his fault I hope you’ll call and when the stars of snow fall in the yard collect on the window sill barring the view of the world that will once again become the spring and when the stars of snow fall

It’s no use to be just like the others It’s no use to be just like yourself The window fell you can’t see through And that’s all you can do It’s no use to be just like the others It’s no use to be just like yourself The window fell you can’t see through And dear the others won’t do So you tried to make it out All the things you’d figure out And all those things just falling down all around Solo It’s no use to be just like the others

when the wind blows harder and the days grow shorter just remember I’m yours just remember I’m yours when the days grow colder and the snow covered fields say once again where are you just know I’m near and when the blossoms begin to bloom and the birds carry another tune just remember I’m yours just remember I’m yours and in midsummer when the sunshine falls like honey just remember I’m yours just remember I’m yours and when the days grow weary and the trees start to let their leaves fall to the ground once again I’ll be with you once again I’m yours round we go the ebb and flow just remember I’m yours

about

DewArt Los Angeles, California

A record of a community that makes art with the tools available. Presentation may or may not be rough around the edges but the work here will always be a labor of love vs. being simply an insipid attempt to be a derivative of what’s in vogue.
