It's Strange 02:30
It’s strange You make me want to stay the same It’s strange To feel trapped inside the game It’s strange To be betrayed by your best friend It’s deranged To stay here just as a means to an end I’m tired I’m tired I don’t want to lose you But you’re drifting from the shore And I don’t want to one the one who Let’s you slip out the door It’s strange I can’t even fake a smile I may Have to leave this town for a while

I want to know you better I want to know you better Your heart Your beautiful heart I want to know you better I want to know you better Your heart Your beautiful heart I want to know you better I want to know you better Your heart Your beautiful heart Your heart Your beautiful heart

You’ve got your love Baby you’ve got your love I’ve got my time Baby I’ve got my time I never wanted to be there I thought you knew that it was true You’re gone And I’m still shaking A summer love can easily be replaced Take your pick from pornographic suburban daughters The morning is heavy I need something to make me new You’re gone And I’m still shaking I’m still shaking I like the way you make me feel ok Like I’m real and not just some illusion I want you to take me Oh show me the real you You’re gone And I’m still shaking Notice the breeze starting to blow cold You better find a way to keep yourself warm, babe You don’t even know me but I bet your probably think you do You’re gone And I’m still shaking I’m still shaking I can hear the icicles dripping down Sometimes it feels like everything’s fucked up The fact that you exist Makes me want to continue on You’re gone And I’m still shaking I’m still shaking And I’m still shaking I’m gonna find you I’m gonna love you I’m gonna find you I’m gonna love you I’m gonna find you I’m gonna love you I’m gonna find you I’m gonna love you I want to be with you

Oh I don’t know where I’m gonna go I don’t know what I’ve got to show But I’m sure that if you stay with me tonight Everything will be alright Oh Make an angel in the snow Make the world around you glow The choice is hard But it is not mine to make My heart is yours To take I need your love I need your love I need your love I need your love Oh So many things that I want to know All about your heart and soul Your voice it make happy with who I am You’re so much better than all them Oh I don’t know where I’m gonna go I don’t know what I’ve got to show But I’m sure that if you stay with me tonight Everything will be alright

Lost Her 03:50
I once held her in my arms My one and only flame Broken and bandaged I was Thrown into the storm She made me smile again Now I’m so lonesome because I lost her This is all my fault I lost her She would’ve been better off If I never had called I don’t feel like eating no There’s nothing for me here And every smell makes me sick Where else can I go? I know I know I know It’s not fair It’s a dirty love trick I lost her This is all my fault I lost her She would’ve been better off If I never had called The sky is gray here every day It’s always been that way Everything stable and still Open up your eyes Read between the lines And I’ll see you at the top of the hill I’ll see you at the top of the hill I’ll see you at the top of the hill I’ll see you at the top of the hill I’ll see you at the top of the hill I’ll see you at the top of the hill
6.
Do you remember weeks ago I called you close in hopes to show Love for you on bended knee To tame the horse to plant the seed To let the wind blow over And to let the tide make curtains Out of all my lust for living And the dream of unrequited love returned Your memory helps me pass the time A vision of you still alive Walking down the street somewhere With golden flowers in your hair Smiling like an angel Who is lost but who is happy With the gift that she is giving And the holiness that she has truly earned We walk among the autumn leaves The crying sun the crooked trees Fighting with the feeling That my heart is what you’re stealing As you dance alone to music That only you can listen to Like some enchanted meeting Between heaven and an unfamiliar earth I cannot express the sadness That I feel when you are happy To lay with you and realize That everything will crumble And that all that’s really real Is this feeling that I feel When I look into your eyes When we talk and when we touch And I tell you that I love you
7.
Waking up next to you Is my favorite thing to do Just to kiss and hold you close Show you who cares the most One more morning One more morning One more morning with you Superhuman I’ve been doing Everything that I can To make you understand That I really like you I really do And if I didn’t I wouldn’t be here One more morning One more morning One more morning with you Plans cast shadows On our weekend Lay with me darling Please make me smile again One more morning One more morning One more morning with you One more morning One more morning One more morning with you
8.
You don’t understand how hard it is To just let things go You’ve never had to leave behind Everyone that you know You’ve never been Torn in two I came back for you I pick up on your implications Our future unclear Don’t give up on me so easily Please don’t leave me here All alone With nothing to do I came back for you I’m not gonna change for you I’d rather die If you really wanna change me babe Maybe it’s time to say goodbye But remember when you’re with Somebody new I came back for you So young and so full of life So spoiled insane Without you I’m leaving this one horse town The same way I came Gonna try and forget your name And all the sweet love that we made Gonna hang my head in shame And if I ever feel Like being blue I’ll come back for you
9.
The shadows on her eyes The portrait of her thighs The silence of her cries Let the breezes blow Let the breezes blow The love inside her tears The truth behind her fears The deaf man who will hear Let the breezes blow Let the breezes blow The strength between her words The things that you have learned The way she makes you yearn Let the breezes blow Let the breezes blow
10.
Open up your eyes Let me see your soul I don’t want to wake up Tell me this is real Dreams If only in my dreams I will be with you Dreams Are shorter than they seem Let me touch you Dawn is coming quick now I can feel it in my soul Please don’t let me wake up I don’t want to wake up Dreams If only in my dreams I will be with you Dreams Are shorter than they seem Let me touch you

Thanks Alot 03:25
Well there’s not much left of me I can’t even sleep I thought that you loved me Maybe not Thanks a lot Well I miss your siren kiss And when you looked at me like this All those lovely memories Dead and left to rot Thanks a lot You were the one that wasn’t like them You were my one and only friend I saw a future with you in it So I thought Thanks a lot I don’t know myself I don’t belong here I don’t know you anymore I can’t stop these tears Well I’m leaving here today I’ve got no reason to stay But it feels like something’s missing Like I’ve been shot Thanks a lot Thanks a lot Thanks a lot Thanks a lot

about

Joe Dickinson Chicago, Illinois

Hi, I’m Joe Dickinson.

I'm a DIY singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL.

It's not easy, balancing the external demands of work/life with the internal demands of creativity, but I'm working toward a set of sustainable internal systems that will allow me to continue to write, record, and release songs. Hopefully for the rest of my life.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen.
