about

Time Today (2020)
During the quarantine of Spring 2020, I had all these expectations that I would have extra time to finally get this album done. While the album did not get done until months later, I instead found time for creativity, reconnecting with old friends, daydreaming, and family. The song itself becomes a kind of silver lining of quarantine.

lyrics

where has my time gone away?
what the heck did I really do today?

staring out into space
wondering about the human race

we need more harmony
instead of more stinkin’ green algae

having a hard time standing
after a mighty rough landing

things seem out of balance
based too much on chance

where has my time gone away?
what the heck did I really do today?

strewn everywhere
in my hidden secret lair

floating out the egress window
layers going out with the flow

towards the highest skies
where all our focus lies

take a picture, turn it in
say it has a perfect feelin’

where has my time gone away?
what the heck did I really do today?

insomniac body feels numb
brain and hair stuck with gum

disembodied molecules
breaking all the rules

weaving myself through walls
recombining into waterfalls

endless daydreams
travelin’ light transfer beams

where has my time gone away?
what the heck did really I do today?

a cowboy and his water gun
joining forces with the sun

or maybe to the great beyond
where I can be James Bond

where I save all that will be
through artfully made green tea

instead of hiding
caught in-between deciding

where has my time gone away?
what the heck did I really do today?
where has my time gone away?
what the heck did I really do today?
did I really do today?
Did I really do?
Did I really?
Did I?
