"Money & Ink" was written in early September 2013.
Born from the frustrations and fatigue of working like dogs and seemingly getting no where, "Money & Ink" is a karma plea. One that will hopefully work!
lyrics
We come with nothing,
And leave with less,
The underdogs squire,
Our hands out-stretched,
Little black books of money and ink,
Wrong place wrong time the loops don't link,
The fingerprints of nods and winks,
We come with nothing,
But song and jest,
Tasting the grindstone,
Our tongues bound and stretched,
Little black books of money and ink,
Wrong place wrong time the loops don't link,
The fingerprints of nods and winks,
Little black books of money and ink,
Wrong place wrong time the loops don't link,
The fingerprints of nods and winks,
God was watching,
But I laid her to rest,
Ignore the quiver old friend
We're not dead yet
I saw you watching,
Its the way you test,
This silence must be broken,
I must speak these sins of flesh,
Little black books of money and ink,
Wrong place wrong time the loops don't link,
The fingerprints of nods and winks,
Little black books of money and ink,
Wrong place wrong time the loops don't link,
The fingerprints of nods and winks,

A ferocious convergence of blues and folk executed through fierce vocals, eclectic percussion and driving rhythmic guitar. An acoustic setup with intervals of dirty, delightful electric fuzz.
