lyrics

Spiderweb in the lamplight
A warm glow emanates from the shadows
A sheltered alley on a hazy night
Wet cobblestones, reflective windows

Four a.m. and I can’t sleep
An insomniac strolling the streets
I took pills and I counted sheep
My mind kept twirling, swirling above the sheets

I watched the news before bedtime
I really shouldn’t have, you know how those images remain
I hope for peace but that’s just a dream
And while awake the nightmare spreads itself like a stain

She’s tucked away in the lamphead
Oblivious to the fear she instills
Creating art from silken thread
Sometimes reaching from lamp to windowsill

about

Roger Hammond Amsterdam, Netherlands

Based near Amsterdam. I write, play guitar, sing and record. I try to write interesting lyrics and occasionally I think they are. A lot of the songs end up with a calm sound and emphasize the vocals and acoustic guitar. My early influences were Paul Simon, Tom Waits, Jethro Tull, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Chopin, The Beatles, Elvis Costello, Otis Redding and a ton more along the way ... more
