My Crime
(J. Green, S. Maxwell)
Inspired by my year-long bout with Epstein-Barre. What if I never got better? Would I have regrets about the way I lived my life? Oh yes. By not giving love, life or faith a chance, I have committed the ultimate crime. Ultimately, the song is a cry for a second chance.
Still Burn
Go On Girl
Tellin' Lies
(J. Green, A. Jones)
A self-love song to remind myself that my "I'm no good" beliefs are all lies.
Malcolm X
Hey! (Seeing Colors)
Pickin' Up the Pieces
Singles
What's Happening Here?
(J. Green, L. Andreone, D. Navarro)
A contemporary nod to Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin On?"
Cold Storage
(Jamie Green)
A song about the Iraq War, inspired by a blog I read by an an Iraqi doctor who said the only good Americans have brought to the hospitals of Iraq are cold storage for all the corpses.
Go It Alone
A bittersweet song about a woman exclaiming that she will go it alone if she is not meant to find the love she so longs for.
Tuesday's Tragedy
September 11, 2001
This is written on Sept 11, 2001, in response to the events of that horrific Tuesday. It is about the loss of that day, not about the politics that followed.
