It's been a long time coming but my new album "I Guess I'm Not Alone" is out now!!! You can stream on Spotify, Amazon, Apple and iTunes and you can get the digital album there or you can the digital album and the actual CD complete with artwork and lyrics at Bandcamp.com under my name Bradley Jacobson https://bradleyjacobson.bandcamp.com
So it's been awhile since there has been a new Swivek album but never fear I'm working on it now. A 13 track set entitled "I GUESS I'M NOT ALONE". The songs featured include songs left off of the EVERYBODY HATES YOU album, plus some old lyrics and themes I've wanted to tackle for awhile. I'm also incorporating my pals Devin Tait of Devin Tait & The Traitors, members of the former Signal Ranch group and my pal Amy Crosby of Shitting Glitter to help out. I'm getting very excited, but first recording must commence.
With Prop 8 getting overturned (once again) today seemed to be the perfect to start recording my song "Wounded." The lyrics and music were written the day after Prop 8 was announced as legal back in 2008 (one month after I got married), I was devastated, hurt, and 'wounded.' But I knew (know) our day will come so I wrote the song.So I wrote it the day after Prop 8 was legal and I'm going to re-record it the day Prop 8 was deemed unconstitutional. Seems perfect.
Here are the lyrics:
W O U N D E D Written by Bradley Jacobson
You can’t change what is true Heaven knows, what about you? You’re fading fast from memory You’re on the wrong side of history
I’ve been wounded, I’ve been scorned I’ve burned in flames and been reborn There’s nothing more you will take from me With your hate and your bigotry I’ll walk right through your brimstone And I will find my way home
Why don’t you walk the path of right instead Of hiding behind a book to spew hatred Your time of lies will fade away And bring about a brighter day
I’ve been wounded, I’ve been scorned I’ve burned in flames and been reborn There’s nothing more you will take from me With your hate and your bigotry I’ll walk right through your brimstone, yeah And I will find my way home
And when you’re burning in your own brimstone God will carry me home God will carry me home
Location: West Hollywood, California, United States
