lyrics

Sunshine
And all I feel is rain
Black clouds
Feeling normal again
All the smiles
Coming today
Just fall right in
A secret dark place.

Messy bed
And it stays that way
No company
To judge the disarray
Laundry day
But I Google instead
Cause I need the recipe
For skillet corn bread.

Lovers in the park
And I blow my horn
Naked as the day
That I was born
And the coffee shop is crowded
No single seats left
I'd prefer not to be
Part of a threesome.

What's happened?
What's the matter with my heart?
What's the matter with my heart?
What's taken it apart?
That complex body part
Gorgeous work of art
My Imaginary Heart.

Single and alone
Stuck in this middle age
Married for awhile
Oh, it must've been a phase.
Loved a few ladies
That I wined and dined
They wouldn't make one good one
If they were combined.

Oh, I know I sound harsh
And I might be jaded
But the lovers I've known
Have long since faded.
And the trouble is me
Does this make sense
At the high school age
All the girls were experiments.

But women have needs
Now they're all growed up
And they place a high price
On security, not love.
I don't want a friendship
With benefits
And I do admit now
That I ain’t so perfect.

Rand Reynolds Nashville, Tennessee

Rand Reynolds writes authentic Hillbilly Noir, a new music genre he created in 2005 to describe his haunting Edgar Allen Poe- like lyrics accompanied by a stark, rustic Martin guitar sound. The songs reek of the human abyss, danger and disappointment because, in Reynolds' Noir world, hope and desperation go hand in hand -- for his dreams of easy deliverance are empty, two sided and vague. ... more
