sorry i am a little late on my blog for day one… the first day of fasting always seems the hardest for me, and yesterday was no different. during the day i was fine, but got the usual headache last night from not eating all day. but i got a little curveball last night which equaled some nasuea to go along with it. not sure how you can get an upset stomach when you haven’t eaten, but i did it. ha. so the combination of not sleeping the night before, not eating all day, and headache/upset stomach = an early night of sleep for this guy.
 
none the less here is the first video. i wrote this song just a week ago while we were traveling around the country looking at castles and palaces. that really didn’t have any correlation with the song, but it’s what was going on when it was written. enjoy.
ps. no comments about the faces i make while playing guitar. i can’t help it. i’ve tried.
 
  As I’m walking around through this sea of faces,

Heads down, feet drag, eyes roam from here to there.

Everybody going, to their own places,

Their hearts all showing years of wear and tear.


So why don’t we break these chains,

That shackle our hearts to the floor,

Swing wide, the gate called love

And let freedom roll out the door


Suburbs new houses, and every door is locked

Seclusion is comfort, no need for a change.

Neighbors are all strangers, there’s fences all around

Our houses and our hearts and our closed minds too


So why don’t we break these chains,

That shackle our hearts to the floor,

Swing wide, the gate called love

And let freedom roll out the door


Call Madonna a prophet, she spoke truth back then

It’s a material world that we’re all living in

Do our hearts have visa written on them

Do we show our love through hugs or an atm


So why don’t we break these chains,

 
That shackle our hearts to the floor,

Swing wide, the gate called love

And let freedom roll out the door

 
love. obedience.
