about

Boilerplate Romantic Triangulative Exploration (of) The Individual Amidst an Other Individual Both Amidst The Relationship.

I don't completely agree with this song, but I honor that I did believe it when it was conceived.

There's parts of it that I feel grown-out-of, but much of the interpersonal exercise is valid, and not a lot of my attending to my own contributions to relational dynamics has changed, so I guess...

Yes, I do still agree with this song. (Whew! Glad to have gotten through that inner argument).

It seems like an ongoing conversation that I've gotten better at having, so that's nice.

lyrics

I adore you
Baby, can't you see
Yet I'll ignore you
Should we fall short of fantasy

It ain't easy but that's how it goes
I am not the man I hoped I would be
Do I owe an apology to you
For doing what comes Naturally?

Maybe, baby, that is just how love goes?
It's not supposed to be an easy road.
It's an answer that I can't question,
And a lesson that's ongoing.

Do me a favor:
Hear my story, then don't worry.
Beautiful lady- you gotta be suitably crazy to be with me.

It ain't easy but that's how it goes
I am not the man I hoped I would be
Do I owe an apology to you
For doing what comes Naturally?

The Conor Byrne EP
by The Cupholders

I love being a Cupholder, and I think that a certain beligerant appreciation of camaraderie comes through in the music. Fantastic record! Casey Ruff

Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde
by The Rainieros

"Blood Red Wine" is the spiritual b-side to my song "Wingman", and an important intrinsic object for future scholars of Casey and Liam to refer to when wondering about their lives in 2013-2016 A.D. Casey Ruff

Secret Kids
by Virgin of the Birds

The song "Summer Palace" makes me wonderfully nostalgic, in that it gives voice to the longings of a certain Age's time and place so poetically. Casey Ruff
