About Me

Hey my name is Tyler. I guess I'm just one of the "mad ones" as Jack Kerouac would say, "mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved," and "desirous of everything at the same time." I wholeheartedly love and I can dig it because it's my only true intent. However, I'm deeply passionate about music and film [and reading] and I like to sing that cosmic American shit and folk-rock like Bobby Dylan and The Byrds. I know I'm different from others but all I can do is be myself and like Jimbo said, "That's what real love amounts to-letting a person be what he really is." I'm a free individual. But I got the Stones to keep me happy and my heart is sure beating like a hammer these days. I hope you can dig that.

"Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion."


"Part of me suspects that I'm a loser, and the other part of me thinks I'm God Almighty." JOHN LENNON


Why must every generation think they're folks are square?
And no matter where they're heads are, they know mom's aint there.
Cause' I swore when I was small, that I'd remember when,
I knew what's wrong with them, that I was smaller than.

Determined to remember all the cardinal rules.
Like, sunshowers are legal grounds, for cutting school.
I know I have forgotten maybe one or two.
And I hope that I recall them all before the baby's due.
And I'll know he'll have a question or two.

Like, hey pop. Can I go ride my zoom?
It goes twohundred miles an hour, suspended on baloons.
And can I put a droplet of this new stuff on my tounge?
And imagine puffing dragons, while you sit and wreck your'e lungs.
And I must me permissive, understanding of the younger generation.

And then I know that all I've learned, my kid assumes.
And all my deepest worries must be his cartoons.
And still I'll try to tell him all the things I've done,
relating to what he can do when he becomes a man.
And still he'll sticks his fingers in the fan.

And hey pop, my girlfriend's only three.
She's got her own videophone,
and she's a-taking LSD.
And now that were best friends, she want's to give a bit to me.
But whats the matter daddy? How come your'e turning greed?
Can it be that you can't live up to your'e dreams?


"It's really Me
Really You
And really Me
It's so hard for us to really be
Really You
And really Me
You'll lose me though
I'm always really free"
