Andrea, thank you for the kind words,

I woke up and there it was, I put it down in writing at 3:00 am recorded body sounds and completed the yokle vocal the following evening. It has a little "match game" thing going on as well, sort of sogilly wading through it. To be honest I write stuff down all the time, never know what message is being transmitted, or why I pay attention when I should be sleeping instead, just glad to be creative. Here are my lyrics:

The Burning Wick 7-22-06 lyric & melody: © Jeff Wells

Cruel benevolence lack of decadence tall tale toll to pay at a bridge that I assembled yesterday I think I'll put it in reverse finally play what I rehearsed in a mind based ego function public way is this a lie, the dark one's trick? from woo! to woe with just one click fire to light the candlestick the sacrifice, of the burning wick the burning wick

a skin to slip in dawn our covers prime consuming past tense lovers turned the leaf for what it's worth divine the path that's set from birth and when we stray, that's in there too it all becomes transparent truth defeat of purpose wry undue to paint thyself that shade of blue that shade of blue morning comes and I awake and happiness is now at stake bring me love your kisses kept your bathed in anguish etiquette your smile like the sand dune swept she took the bus, I took the jet although I know I look unkept It's maybe cause I haven't slept
