Artist Bio:
Jimi Pocius is a singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist from Rockville, CT. He has
extensive performance experience in a wide variety of musical genres going back to his childhood, where he started on Cello at the age of 7 back in 1969. His main instruments are the guitar and bass, though he doubles on synths and most stringed instruments and sings.
Most of his life has been spent fronting local bands, he never gave a damn about stardom,
he just wanted to play good old
fashioned Classic Rock 'n Roll....his songs are as diverse as his interests, encompassing a wide range of classic rock stylings while always keeping one foot firmly planted in the blues of his roots. Now in progress is a second album of Rock 'n roll music titled "Some More RocknRoll"...less eclectic than his previous indie, "AmblyopiA", more straight-ahead old school classic rock. CD's are available if you are interested on an extremely limited basis.
All his songs are available for free download, he asks if you enjoy them to please make a small donation to the American Cancer Society. If you want more info, please visit his website for pictures, alternative song downloads, and some music apps at http://jimipocius.com/

it's not like it used to be
she's not a friend to me
her love once so warm and wet
now cold like a tourniquet.
opal and burning her
eyes full, still yearning
bereft of all dignity
her eyes staring right thru me
did she see eternity
was it only my vanity
222222222222222222222222222222222222222222
engulfed by eternity
adrift on a stormy sea
no love in the essence
that used to hold on to me
souls still yet lovers
a burden not soon regret
as deep as an ocean
inviting me open wet
promise we soon forget but
heart feeling nothing yet
the life i left counterfeit
her love like a tourniquet
3333333333333333333333333333333333333333
but a life on this sea for me
sailing on endlessly
now just black holes i see
seem to stare right thru me
i'd sail till eternity
in love with the open sea
but i had believed the lie
now left here adrift to die
to sail on this stormy sea
bereft of all dignity
her love now so cold and wet
now taking me, counterfeit
her tide feeling no regret
my love like a tourniquet
no words left said to regret
love like a tourniquet
adrift endless sunset
her love like a tourniquet
love like a tourniquet....

riff

verse 1
your kiss is judas, but now that's just a start
can't hide the hatred burning deep in your heart
you spread the jetsam from your poisoned mind
who'll pay the price for what you've left behind?
black heart cold steel

so ..voices told you you're god's fortunate sons
mislead and posture, bang the victory drums
with drunken delusions in your cocaine eyes
seek death on earth, think no one's wise
black heart cold steel

verse 3
you filthy bastards just make me laugh
stuff your brave new visions straight up your ****
we're all the same, one heart and one mind
your perverse corrosion divides mankind
black heart cold steel

Constitution wouldn't defend your stinkin' lies

oh death's messiahs,where's your truth to be found
who grants the right to let you stand your ground?
we'll stop you somehow, your visions cease to fly
so kiss your powers and agendas goodbye

Swan Song
Jimi Pocius
1)
it's been real
it's been fun
been like playing with a loaded gun
it's been real, it's been strong
but you know i must be going
can't ya hear the wind, it's calling out
my name?
2)
been a steal,so unkind
to be born allways to
tow the line
state your crime
don't be wrong
can't ya hear the wind,
it's screamin' out my name?
bridge)
is it still the same
has it really changed
can ya hear the wind it's screamin' out my name....
Gtr Solos
3)
it's been real
that's no lie
but now the time has come
for me to say good bye
it's been real,
been so strong
can't ya hear the wind
it's callin' out....

Jimi Pocius - Day AfterDay
lyrics
Day After Day
jimi pocius
1984
1)
day after day
life slips away
struggling to an
unknown end
and night after night,
we huddle in fright
of what the new day
might send
2)
Ghosts of the past
linger and last
still crying out in
their pain
they whisper to me and
only i see the world's
gone crazy and i am
insane
bridge1)
was it tomorrow, was
it yesterday
we declared war is
over my friend
will all we destroy
and all we create show
us the means to our
end
3)
they say you must
follow these games
that they play
always the same,
without change
but they become afraid
if ya go your own way
to protect themselves
they declare you
deranged
4)
we blunder blind down
an explosive path
destroying the world
in the name of the
free - a whole world
that's filled with
crazed psychopaths who
would nail their own
kind to a tree...
bridge)
5)
the human race has
become a disgrace like
they don't know better
ways they plunder the
earth, and lay her to
waste it's always the
same, never changes
day after day
day after day
day after day
day after day.....
