about

So there I was – home for the pandemic, minding my own business. Suddenly this ol' tune from 35 years ago started tugging at my pant leg. So I did a few tweaks and recorded it, as I felt a "push" to share it with all of you. I hope it does something to you and for you, cheers!

lyrics

Scattered Times

Scattered times my scattered mind is lonely
All alone a scattered mind undone
Scattered times my scattered mind is lonely
With scattered dreams of one

Scattered words across a sea of promise
Tossed about across a battered life
Scattered words across a sea of promises
And dreams once alive

Still I feel a clearing
Of gremlins I’ve been fearing
Through this pain I finally find the rain
Gives my soul the cleaning it’s been needing

Scattered lies my words they have no meaning
Losing track don’t know which ones are true
Scattered lies my words they have no meaning
And now I have no proof
Know one knows the truth

Still I feel a clearing
Of skeletons I’ve been fearing
Through this pain I finally find the rain
Gives my soul the cleaning it’s been needing
Cleanse my soul - cleanse my soul
