Listen on Podbean

Song lyrics by Jacquie Burckley:

Untitled song to the tune of “Drown” by Front Porch Step
I’ll carry the weight
I’m your burden to hold
Leave it up to me
Keep myself composed

I wonder if you think of me
I think about your mom
And I wonder if you dream
Ma a sinner, you a con
I think about the sea fish
Pearl sparkle on surface blue
Your love or my life I gotta choose
Either way I choose, I’m gonna lose

Untitled song to the tune of “Same Dark Places” by JR JR
Carve a heart from my hand
So you can understand
Fire eyes and burning soul
You put me in and somehow out of control

You can’t choose half and not give whole
A hole and dark and mostly coal

I want to waste your time like you wasted mine
Time to warn the next one
I hope she flees the first time
not the tenth and not the seven thirty
I pray she gets there early

Untitled song to the tune of “Sick of Losing Soulmates” by Dodie
I don’t quite understand
The silence ringing inside my head

‘Cause I want to hold your hand and kiss you on the train
The bar is set higher, get your shit together
I may be crazy, but you’re insane
I want to hold you close and kiss you in the rain
The bar does not go higher, get your shit together
I may be crazy, but you’re insane

Song lyrics by Chrissy Schreiber

Untitled song to the tune of “Strawberry Fields Forever”
by The Beatles

Wondering how to accept this
A lie you came to know so well
The ones who gave you everything
And the kitchen sink
Might just be human after all

Untitled song to the tune of “I Get No Joy” by Jade Bird
Turn butterflies to tar
Bully my liver
Scream til my lungs scar
Freeze you out, shiver
I’m such a fool
My throat my only tool
I sang it raw for you
Voiceless I am no one

Untitled song to the tune of “Hurt Me Again” by Matt McAndrew”
When I’m singing to you
I can see that you’re blue
Cause it’s copper that burns in your eyes
But the flame’s burning low
And you might think you’re alone
Can you tell me, where’s the truth in those lies?
