Lyrics:
NORTHBOUND TRAIN (LESBIAN MOON)
I slept with the lesbian again, tonight.
Drinking constantly,
But never standing upright.
She said, "I could really love you,
But I prefer to abuse".
So, I toast to double vision,
Thoroughly amused.
Freedom has its lonely moments
Classically depressing, though it’s
Never quite as sad as indifference.
interlude
I took a trip to the pastel city.
I’m flowing over it,
Spending all my love.
I shared a drink with a friend
And we laughed out loud.
On the deep moonlight.
And I want to leave the city
And watch the desert gloat at me
And watch the paisley birdy play
-bridge-
I climbed aboard the northbound train, tonight.
I wrote about the feeling
That felt so right.
I fell in love with a stranger.
I can't say she broke my heart,
But I was definitely in danger.
Caution can be beneficial,
you never know when the world will
suffocate and die.
interlude
I took a stand for anything tonight.
Big or small, I couldn't be sure
Whether I was right.
But it felt perfectly natural anyway.
Perfectly hopeless,
But at least I had something to say.
Nevermind the politics and policies.
Nevermind the glamourous dignity.
Just suffer happily
…suffer happily.

Miss you buddy. RIP

Ed, are there more demos available? These are quite good. I hear Church inspired. Also, what became of his Rickenbacker guitar 🎸?

[@E-candy]

As of now a total of 9 demos exist on a cassette Richard owns. His plan to have it "professionally" captured and mastered. The Rickenbacker was put in "hawk" and never retrieved. His last instrument was his black Takamine acoustic which ended up suffering the same fate.
