Awayday

(Free Deeks)

An 'Awayday' ticket used to be a cheap way of travelling on British Rail and was a way of getting away from home, the return part of the ticket not being used. My character in this song has left home to prove a point (perhaps, infused with the feel of the old stories of the man who leaves to make his fame and fortune). Unfortunately, my character doesn't reach his required level of achievement and decides to find another way out. This character is a composite of a number of people I've known in the past and the outcome, a reflection of what might have happened.

He takes the pills while he lies on the bed Throws down the book, wryly smiles, shakes his head He closes his eyes, takes his mind off his room Mumbles some sound, mopes around in his gloom He eats, goes to work, meets no one, pays his rent Walks to the park, stands alone by the fence He wished he'd stayed home, it was never like this Remoulds the plan though the hand isn't his He's all alone, he's all alone Someday he'll show them what he was meant to be Someday he'll show them the way Someday he'll show them what he was meant to be Someday he'll show them the way Just one more drink, though it won't be the same His old mates are awed 'cause they know where he came He can't go home now 'cause they'd laugh in his face Hold back the hate, hope that fate saves disgrace Faint sounds of laughter, the punch lines gone wrong His life's like a joke, but it reads like a song This time his book falls, his hand stays outstretched He's more than alone, lying still on the bed He's all alone, he's all alone Someday he'll show them what he was meant to be Someday he'll show them the way Someday he'll show them what he was meant to be Someday he'll show them the way He's all alone, he's all alone Someday he'll show them what he was meant to be Someday he'll show them the way Someday he'll show them what he was meant to be Someday he'll show them the way

Two Dead Rattlesnakes (On Morning Star Lane)

By Free Deeks


A couple of years ago I spent some time in Mariposa, a small town in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada in California. Each week the local newspaper would publish a resume of the incidents, provided by the County Sheriff’s Office, that occurred in and around the town during that week. In this song, a member of the Sheriff’s Office has discovered that his wife doesn’t love him anymore. In the first part he is leaving to get to work, he’s in the car, listening to the radio and thinking of what had been happening. The second part is a list of his work during that week that will end up appearing in the local paper. Life in its mundanity and sadness.

Whodunnit

By Free Deeks


The trusty ‘whodunnit’. The book that has fascinated and filled people’s empty hours. We all like a mystery and this is my précis of the genre. Like music uses twelve notes to create a myriad of songs, crime fiction conjures up a million twists to a limited number of plots.

Gone For Good

By Free Deeks


This is a complete beak up of a relationship and by the look of it, it’s turned a little nasty. There’s no reconciliation here and the protagonist is going to have to get out of town...and he ain’t coming back!

No Curtain For The Show

By Free Deeks


A relationship is faltering, and maybe nearing its end. However, one of them is clinging to a belief that there could be a reconciliation. There is tenacity, hope and a belief that it’s not over until the large lady start her song.
