Two New Tunes

Couple new songs I'm working on.





Somehow

I'm getting ahead of myself, and I'm tired
You're getting an earful of mouth running wild
and I think that it's time to slow down

Been thinking about what you said, and it's true
I don't need you to understand my point of view
it's just for me to sort out somehow

I just need to slow down somehow
I just need to slow down somehow


Dime

You asked me if I could stand to get a better view
but when I did you said I was looking down on you
it's tough to help you out when you don't trust how I do

We're stuck on different sides of the same dime

You came to me singing a tune with the tongue of a goat
and I said it might as well have been a song I wrote
it's not the words coming out, it's how they feel in your throat

We're stuck on different sides of the same dime

Well sometimes, y'know, I can't help myself
I see only the black and white
And yeah, I know that it's all mixed up
but some days the gray looks like a line

And it's a whole 'nother scene
when there's no more in-between

We're stuck on different sides of the same dime
