Tears
It was very hard for me to record tears as it was written at a point in my life that sucked. My first real live in girl had just aborted my baby , my career was on the skids... I was too high to realize how good I had it I guess. I am not sure. anyway , it is a song about an emo who wants to kill himself. well , ok , me in one of my more mellodramatic moods. anyway , it brought up alot. not just emo either . back then , I had the best occult library ever. I studied often. and recording the song brought back alot. not just feelings , but unmentionables. consider this as the first in the sieries...more on the DEAMONS and the fight,plight,as I record more. lubz Erik

This time titled "Business as perusual " or something. Anyway Got to get to class , so Late , n thanks for your support.
Holiday Blues
Alot of people get down near the holidays. It reminds us of childhood lost , finding out there is no Santa , and family stress. No matter how much you spend on presents it does not seem enough , and so on. My advice ? go see Santa at the mall , sing Chistmas carols and go to church. fake it till you make it. If life is how you think of it , think it good.
Me n U - Love True
You say I am inmature ? Your inmature With all this together or apart How can we be either of those when we share one heart? You have this plan where your just gonna cut me off But whats going to happen when u find your other half has run off You know I am here , your right there There is nothing we can do about that But we can’t be yelling and screaming ending the world over every little spat It aint my choice you know my choice Watch the children on the lawn Ice cold beer Every day I sit here alone I wonder what the hell I am doin here We travel together a long long way And I guess you got tierd of the rollercoaster ride Bit that don’t change where we r going The migration route is printed on the inside I laugh at me n u and the things we do Now that I have learned You belive what you want Tierd of being burned Belive it or not you cant taunt Cause I know the truth You can lie to yourself but wont do you no good Your going to love me anyway I am going to love you anyway True love is that way ©Erik Pieper Nov.1,2012

Will Rock For Food
what's the diff between a musician and a pizza ? A pizza can feed a family of 4 ! buh dum bump. but really. IDK maybe there are some out there who live well off thier income and within thier means. that is not me.If I have 5 dollars , I spend 5. ask the label u give me 10,000 I spend 10,000. Probobly why they don't give me that much anymore ,lol. well I have no shame to my game so one day , seeing the guy flying a sighn on the highway I got an brain strorm. in Nashville they don't allow panhandleing but they are allowed , for low cost , to buy into a magazine distrubution co. I thought I wonder.... yes, I have done it. I have stood there on the side of the road with cd in hand and tried to smile. very humbleing. I recomend it to everyone. upon final tally the cd cost was covered and I was 5 dollars to the good. so I spent 5 dollars.lol. my point is , what a great way to market. out of every three that i encounter on the street 1 visits the website.do the math and 1 out of every 100 will buy somthing else. I could solve world hunger and get my music heard every where. going to look into a grant.....anyone who wants to pick up the ball or lend a hand. Erik
she sings and dances
went to see a show nothing new same old thing or so I had thought but she made me forget all i was taught... I saw her there upon the stage I felt like I was locked in a cage I could not reach up and touch her wanted so bad to mean so much to her I danced and rocked to the beat watched her legs watched her feet saw her face my own blushed with heat suddenly she jumped in my arms my head set of all kinds of alarms my heart broke my knees grew weak was this the girl that I seek? she sings and she dances did she notice as i stole glances? will she ever be my own got her digits on my phone walked home in the pouring rain praying that I would see her again all kinds of thoughts in my brain n go on to live another day but I am not feeling the same this fire of mine I can not tame....

Tonight...
sitting here in these four walls hear the people shuffling down the hall quiet myself but my voices are so loud got a good buzz got no reason not to be proud the refrige is full and the rent is paid got a few prospects for getting laid but for some reason my hearts up to treason trying again to break the dreams i have of you the thoughts that keep me awake at night just let me catch my breath I will be alright oh y can't I hold you tight? just got to make it one more night..... catch my breath , N , I'll be allright.......
