Hey people...,

I just finished some lyrics again. They're about the inner emotions of anyone who is stuck in a situation, but can't move on, no matter how strong their efforts. Yes, it's personal to my feelings, of course. That's why I write. But those who know the feelings can likely relate. It's called "Leather and Laces".


"Leather and Laces"
-Rick, "RiCterMan," Strayer, fecit.

I’m only a man, left in a boy’s shoes.
-Laces tied so tightly,
and well, I can’t- I just can’t seem to move.
There’s little comfort. -In fact, it’s
really, very much constrictive.
I have no choice, unless
I cut myself away...

(Short Interlude, envisioned.)

So few could bear, these, soles.
As well, so few can understand.
I’m here...,
and anxious, to cut myself away...

(Moderately Long Interlude, envisioned.)

I’ve gotta’ cut myself away...
-Laces stay; I hate them.
-Gotta’ cut myself away...
Worn, with worn-out welcome.
-Wanna’ cut myself away.
Disregarded worth lives.
-Need to cut myself away; cut to new release,
with shoes anew, and too,
relaced.

(Short Interlude Outro)

I haven't been writing very much lately... I've been pretty busy working and spending time with a few people. But..., I'm getting really tired of putting forth effort and holding onto patience, when little change seems to be happening. I'm tryin' all that I can, but I still feel very stuck.

Anyway... The title has nothing to do with bondage; just to clarify... I'm sure most people can make the connection with shoes, but I want to be sure that it is understood... Nearly everything I write is personal to me, and if I'm sharing that, the title is an important part. There's usually more than one reason for why I gave a title to whatever I've written. In this case, I think it sounds kinda' interesting, it symbolizes feeling worn out, and it symbolizes being tied in. I mean, those are the basics for that...... But I'm done for now, and it's time to say goodnight. Take it easy, everyone. Later...!

No, but I will be. -Gotta' find a way to get a P.A., and then find some talented artists to make actual songs with... I don't know how long it'll take to get that far, but I'm not quitting until I feel it's too late to do what I want to.

Glad you enjoyed the lyrics, and I hope all is well for ya'. Later!
