Waste c. Vlayman '15 Can't seem to feel anything below the waist Nothin' seems real, and mebbe that's my fate To be not real, to have no smell or taste Such a waste, such a waste Pharaohs come along, my son, they rule and defile Queens and priests just carry on, as befits their style Golden headress brocaded silk crying in the meanwhile Crying in the meanwhile Fairy tales may not be every thing you believe They're told to childern, my son, and others we seek to deceive That happiness can be found, if you'd just be free Come with me, come with me Love is what you make when, you run from the abyss The time you take to perfect yer sins, it's nothing more than this And if you have the chance, my son, make it yer third wish Look through her kiss, look through her kiss Drums: nettage RthmGtrs: Paul(FulltoneDist+-SwellFlanger-ShrtTimer)-ProJr-E609-ISA1 Bass: HnrJazz-Brick-dbx160XT Vox: M500-VC1Q LdGtr: G&Lf100(bigMuffW)-ProJrM-Superlix-ISA1_MXL860-UA710_MS Cowbell: Superlux-ISA1_ProJrMXL860-UA710>MS

Shadows (Dispel) c. '15 Vlayman When I looked deep into the heart of the girl I could never really be sure, what was kept hid I tried so hard to get into her mind and heart Look me in the eye, son, ya know I did No matter what I do, it's her own hell I can't dispel the shadows I took my time, I gave her everything All that was mine was hers to have and use I made it clear and I know she understood Look me in the eye, son, ya know it's true No matter what I did, it was her own hell I couldn't dispel the shadows So when she left, well, it wasn't no kinda surprise Tho' when she took ya, that threw me for a loop I coulda seen it comin', seen it in her angry eyes Look me in the eye, son, ya know I'm tellin' the truth Drums: nettage Bass: Alvz-MMhd130-TT-EVndPM1000-VLA2_Brrick-dbx160XT Vox: evNR257a-pm100-vla2 Gtr: mijSTRAT-ProJr.-e609-isa1(PAD)

about

Vlayman Chicago, Illinois

Fat, bald and old - could I be anymo' rock-n-roll?
I play guitar, bass, some keys and percussion, and I try to vocalize. I write and record, and I do so obsessively. Also, I like martoonies, a lot, and I raise my kids, whom I also like, a lot.
Look for me at the TapeOp and TalkBass forums, where I'm vvv, or in various bars in the Loop.
