This is where I show up every week—unfiltered, half-awake, and usually a little wrecked—to answer Jim Adams’ Song Lyric Sunday challenge. No pretense. Just me, a lyric that hits somewhere deep, and whatever comes out when I sit down to write.
What you’ll find here:
- Lyric-fueled reflections—not reviews, not critiques, just gut reactions to songs that won’t let me go.
- Unpolished honesty—I’m not trying to sound smart; I’m trying to tell the truth. Some posts rant, some spiral, some land softly. All of them are real.
- A messy mix of genres—from Iron Maiden to Shuggie Otis, I go where the challenge takes me. If it stirs something, I’m in.
- No distance, no disguise—these aren’t academic takes. They’re what happens when I let music speak straight to whatever part of me is still awake at 2 a.m.
If you’ve ever heard a lyric and felt it pull something loose inside you—that sudden sting of recognition—then you already get it. That’s what this page is about. Welcome to the noise inside my head.
