about
Just me singing and playing the green Jerzy Drozd Custom four string bass. Recorded at The Blanket Fort
lyrics
Oh no, don't listen to
The words you file away lock away the truth.
You're choking on the things that you think you know
With the words you file away.
The words I've got they fail to serve
At describing what I'm finding on this good Earth.
The clicking and whistling only refer
To the words you file away.
I don't even want to worry
With all of these feelings to hide.
I find them so hard to swallow
When I lock them away inside
Oh, these words you file away.
The colors in my mind are brighter than their names.
All this chattering can't mean the same.
A hazy, grey cloud that shrouds the world
With the words you file away.
I don't even trust my eyes
Oh, and my ears are no good.
All they do is lie to me,
But they are all that I've got you see.
Oh.
All these words fail to serve me
At describing the wonder I see.
Cannot even tell each other
Just how beautiful we seem.
With the words we file away.
The words you file away lock away the truth.
You're choking on the things that you think you know
With the words you file away.
The words I've got they fail to serve
At describing what I'm finding on this good Earth.
The clicking and whistling only refer
To the words you file away.
I don't even want to worry
With all of these feelings to hide.
I find them so hard to swallow
When I lock them away inside
Oh, these words you file away.
The colors in my mind are brighter than their names.
All this chattering can't mean the same.
A hazy, grey cloud that shrouds the world
With the words you file away.
I don't even trust my eyes
Oh, and my ears are no good.
All they do is lie to me,
But they are all that I've got you see.
Oh.
All these words fail to serve me
At describing the wonder I see.
Cannot even tell each other
Just how beautiful we seem.
With the words we file away.

Becoming Unravelled
by Aaron GibsonAaron has a great voice and plays in his own way with no apologies. His songwriting is catchy and runs deep.
go to album -
Aside from being outrageously prolific, Trip creates music that is lush and strongly emotive. He's a beast of a player, too!
