Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Wave Goodbye'We'll have forgotten by tomorrow all the trips delayed with sorrowHolding on, tomorrow gonePeace of mind pent up inside, walk the sky I'm high and dryFading star, in my heartTired, I'm frail insideWave goodbyeTime away to understand better thoughts inside my headMoving on, but not so strongInsufficient being, I walk the line inside my mindHolding on for so longOh won't you let me be?I want to try and see all I can, understandThat I'm not the man I planned to beOne day we'll make it, then we will be happyBut in the meantime...www.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Mount Fuji Seen Below A Wave at Kanagawa' by Katsushika Hokusai www.katsushikahokusai.org

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'New Day'Get off the floor it's a new day to get aheadIn times past you may have said that you'd be better deadHow many times can you pick yourself up when you've fallen down?No guarantee that there will be tomorrow, anyhowNow that we're on the same page I've got a few things to say,then must be on my wayI'm sorry when I'm manic and panic and say the whole world sucks and will explode somedayHow many times will you forgive me, when I break you down?No guarantee that you'll concede or even stick aroundWhy bother?Because it's a new day, a second chanceTo change the fate of the rest of your lifeWhy bother?Because it's a new day, another chanceBefore too long all your chances will be goneJust say maybe, for one more dayHold on a little longerRemove the veil, stop lying to yourself, forgive yourselfYou're only human, that's beautiful, you're flawed and beautiful like no body elseHow many times will you deny the calling of your life?A tragedy to see you grieve while causing your own strife www.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'New Day Dawning' by Ginny Blakeslee Breenwww.trinitymountaingallery.com/ginny-blakeslee-breen

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Oh Goddess'Twenty-seven years old, distilling lead into goldThe world's gonna end or so I'm toldTrying to right all my wrongs, all I've got is this songKeeping me grounded where I belongWhen I look at my life I see worry and strifePerfectionistic, ask my wifeHeart's heavy with pain, the whole world to gainIf I could let it go, would you do the same?Oh Goddess, Oh GoddessPlease take me home to youThere's nothing that's not usI promise to be goodPeople locked up inside, what have we got to hide?Superficial differences divideMelt into the field, unified and realConsciously turning like a wheelWhere do I end and begin, if the elements in the world that make us are the same?Transpersonal flight into the Light, No opposites, no wrong or rightHear the cosmic laughter falling in the rainIf you think that life is disaster,Remember you're the master within the Yin & Yangwww.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Ascension - Goddess of Transforming Fire' by Katherine Skaggs www.soulpaintings.com

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Into the Sun'Lately the things that I try to sayCome out horribly wrong and leave me in this placeMaybe the feelings that are stuck inside my headAre far too frightening to faceBaby, I'd love to think you're the one for meAnd I'm the one for you, but sometimes my mind disagrees Guilty, the shame and judgment my conscience breathesSocial-conditioning to keep me in defeatFly into the sunSolar-rays the end of days...Fly into the sunThe dawning of the Golden AgeDharma, the spinning wheel of cosmic rouletteHas dealt my hand, there's no more time for vein regretsKarma, where I come from and where I'll goMany choices good and bad of long agoCharmer, snake with feathers so divineA spark of wisdom planted right between the eyesArmor, the battle scars of many livesAre laid to rest to focus on the LightBreathe out, breathe inOh ElohimFive days no SunThey'll come undone - But I'll be there with Youwww.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Gold Sun' by Jaison Cianelli www.cianellistudios.com

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Out of the Sky'Out of the sky in a single night you came to meAnd with you eyes, in a single glance you understoodFull of surprise, synchronicity doesn't lieI see myself as happy with youTry my best to treat you wellThough we've just begun the words are being sungI never knew someone quite like youSharing a dream, life's not what it seemsI see myself as happy with youTry my best to let you chooseWhat's good for you, I know you're good for mewww.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Lucy in the Sky' by Amanda Matthews Fieldswww.wildhoneysuckle.com

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'For Andy' Thinking 'bout Andy, just the other dayHow the time passes and vanishes into the hazeThinking 'bout Andy, what is there to say?I'm sad that you left us and wishing that you could have stayedThinking 'bout you todayMs. Durden was wrong to be so hard on youThe kids in the school yard, I guess that included me, DrewHey look there's Andy rolling down the hillJamers and Crystal, and sometimes Johanna there tooRemember the time on my ramp with your knee?Jumped out of the way, and stood there as I watched you bleedOr how 'bout the time when my mom banged her headYou asked if she was alright, she told you to go home insteadI'm sorry, my friendWhen I get there to Heaven, my friendWill you vouch for me, share your couch with me?We'll watch us a movie or twoAnd head down to Chris & Tom's liquor store just like we used toOh Andy, I miss youDemerol days when I pushed you away,Kicked you out of the band, and couldn't quite see where you landedI went off to art school, you stuck with the bassAnd held down the rhythm in jazz band, as you took my placeCame into your own, in spite of your bluesYou joined a fraternity seeking acceptance through proofThey found you off Angeles Crest in your carA hose through the window, exhausting your suffering heartSoon to departThis lonesome night I'll be singing this song to you, hoping you push on throughYou gave up the fightI don't blame you for checking out, I've had the same thought, no doubtAnd yet here I AmWell I'll see you on the other side thenGod's love for you will never end and neither will mineI'm all grown up with kids now, maybe you're one of themIf reincarnation is real, and I think that it is, my friendEmet is four now, and Jade almost twoEvery time Emet laughs really hard, man he looks just like youLynzie never met you, a shame we didn't speak leading up to your exitHer Great-grandma joined you the following weekI know she's looking out for you up the skyWith good old home cooking and generous helpings of apple pieThinking 'bout you tonightWhen I get there to Heaven, my friendWill you please save me a seat?Forgive me for all of the times I was cruel and I was meanIf it takes me a hundred more years will you still remember me?Lord knows I could never forget Andy*In loving memory of Andrew Mark Dolan www.mypspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Couch' by Fred Bell www.fredbellpaintings.blogspot.com

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Got to Run'I saw you down by the curbsideKeeping me with watchful eyesTwo stogies with iced-espressoUp the straw I'd watch it riseGot get 'em, fresh meet for cookingSeal the deal and you're the manTest drive 'em, present the numbersThen take everything you can And here's to all the souls in needGod rest you safe in bed and keep good companyI aim to leave, you aim to pleaseDon't knock me down, my knees are feeling weak"Hey Cobra," he liked to call me"I only want the best, it's true.How could you think of leaving,With all this job can offer you?""Keep dreaming," I'd hear them sayingAs they'd stuff their pockets fullCan't do this, seventy hours a weak is just too cruelI hope you know you're really like a brotherIn spite of all that's said and doneBut let's not pretend for one more day that it's my callingI've got to runwww.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Running Man' (1932-34) by Kasimir Malevich

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Coffee'I got out of bed one day and made my way down the hall to the kitchen for some coffeeThe coffee maker wouldn't turn on, and so I stood and stared and thought about no coffeeLegitimate addiction, as I grab my keys and coat plus a dollar-fiftyI wonder will it ever end?All the sleepy mornings and a drink upon which I dependIt's alright, don't get down on yourselfThat's life, and that's what learning's aboutDon't stress, you can let it all goIt's alright, don't get down on yourselfJust laugh, cause that's what living's aboutDon't stress, you can let it all goInternally conflicted, as I wax and wane between my conscience and my brain, Telling me I need this drink to feel good, with a kick and a boost to elevate my moodWhat about exercise or some vitamins, or maybe a cup of tea?But none of that sounds as appealing to mewww.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Green chair with coffee cup' by Anthony Ulinskywww.anthonyulinski.com

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'Until Tomorrow'I'll see you off, I'll hold you closeTo know tomorrow's gonna comeAnd sweep me off my feet each time our eyes meetI'll hold my love until tomorrowWill you think of me then, as now you do?To walk through fantasy toward something newI'll hold my love until tomorrowIt's nice to feel loved, and hold you in my armsA firm belief in us is not so much to askLet's fill our fears with love and heal our hearts todaywww.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Until Tomorrow' by Patrick Kitsonwww.patrickkitson.com

Music & Lyrics by Jesse Miller - Copyright 2009'You Deserve What You Get'When I'm home I feel the need to be aloneSelfish tendencies take their controlIf only I could bleed my egoThere was a time I wasn't so afraid, the world was mineEach day was new and took me by surpriseContentment's given way to painted smilesYou deserve what you getA simple science of cause and effectYou deserve what you getTraveling on, meander down the path the light is now goneHidden in the clutches of my palmThinking I should turn back, I move onDown below the belly of the beast is soon to blowThe sands of time remain from so long agoThe chaos that I reap is what I sowI'm thinking over in my head what to doHaven't a clueThere's plenty to be thankful forInstead I choose to sing the bluesYou deserve what you getA simple science of cause and effectWe all deserve what we get www.myspace.com/jessemillerbandjessemillerband@gmail.comjessemillerband.podomatic.comPainting, 'Cause and Effect' by Pamela Elis http://pamela-ellis.fineartamerica.com/
