I spent a lifetime babe, searching for the sea and even tho i love my sugar i can't seem to name this peace i said live on babe we're gonna find that gold she even walked on the waves my sugar i can't seem to name this war why can't i wake on the long walk evil can live like a guest i think i'll even the railroad if my sugar baby wish... oh the weeks weave on i guess her mind seems like a throne i seem to live on regret woman but i see the serpent shores we gonna walk on the sand some we gonna take our rest she gonna pour me some sugar baby the best somebody stole the weather i think ill just row forever the months weave on i guess the waters roadless roads i think i row my best when the anchor's low we didn't fear all the weather never envied the water never mean to the feathers of fate and sugar breeze without walls aint dangerous hail without falls painless i stepped on the war sand even to live like a man i didn't even know it she never loved on the rocks the salt dries my bones i can't feel my breath sew me to your soul mama the water makes us rich like silver and gold the salt dries my soul she didn't live on the rocks we didn't live on the rocks yeah i aint fallin war silver and gold turn on everyone turnin those rocks into gold

oh the scarecrow hangs as he sangs to his shadows i love the breeze that shakes my knees down to my elbows and i do love my garden growing like the autumn trees in the pines oh mr breeze would take some of these stems twigs and leaves thru the meadows and trees cause i want them to feel and see warm strawberries the sweet cemeteries crazy city streets and the waters running free but before you leave let me say my peace oh my friend thank you please go stretch and stray like a twig dreams of arrows you see if it was me then it would be scarecrows everybody will help you discover what you set out to find but it in mind they might not be kind they might make you pine like the forest sighs it might be fine hell it might be better than mine or come on home back to your fathers garden or grow your own by some black waterside everybody will thank you for setting out for what you found out you could find yeah keep it in time wind chimes and wine and nevermind the hills steady inclines just float on  byE foreign shrines i know you’ll be fine you’ll get it right and it might be better than mine i wear my bones like a cloak made of shadows sit and sip on smoke casting stones towards the gallows everybody will love you and shatter the beating heart in your mind just keep it in time and keep it kind with windy sunshine with your achingly bright lovely angels eyes yeah you’ll fall from high and sing a forest sigh for miles and lives for your every smile so if you find what set out to find would you keep it with mine

this oceans sails in my little boat and gives my old soul a break i can't seem to wait Danny boy, the pipes, are calling and rolling by, my door is always, open we watched all night the waters shining across the wide missouri danny boy the pipes are falling on my boat but i, I've learned to float like a leaf goin home and when we dance in that sacred valley ill bring the pipes with me

about

Pioneering the lo-fi folk and conceptual DIY movement Mike Desmond's Dead Horse brings us the one man band's Debut EP, Ghepettos's Revenge. A wild mix of captivating imagery, delightfully haunting vocals, a driving playing style unto itself, and an underground sound that oozes character. Rich yet humble. Warm and real. Satisfying. No polish or make up on this one. More like a vintage mix tape to a long lost lover than the traditional showcase. Recored at various locations throughout the U.S. over the course of 2015. Using borrowed instruments, an old cassette four track and stomp boxes for effects (recorded and mixed without a computer) this EP brings us just a taste of what will be. And I for one am hungry for more. A truly refreshing mix of innovation and talent. I don't know where this troubadour is from but I know where he's going and I advise you to follow.
