about

"Just So You Know" was the first song written for my new album “Rhythm of the Roads”. It was March 2020, just as the pandemic was gaining steam and we were all learning to live it place. The weight of our new reality seemed surreal yet very temporary at the time. This song was a wishful view into a post-pandemic world where people are gathering again to celebrate with newfound optimism. Seems things were heading in that very direction just a few months ago. We’ve had a set back more recently but stay positive. We will beat this thing.

lyrics

Just So You Know

Just so you know
Everything is fine
Everybody seems to be improving
Just so you know
The fruit is on the vine
We were paralyzed but now we’re moving

And all this worry
Doesn’t seem to matter much at all
And all our pleasures
Are dancing in the daylight with the shadows on the wall

Just so you know
It isn’t what it seems
It’s always bundled up with such confusion
Just so you know
That never in my dreams
Did I for once believe in this illusion

For all these reasons
We organized to find another way
From these deceptions
Divisions and dissentions and distrust in what you say
Just so you know

And all these people
Stand in line
Have come together
In Memories and harmonies and particles of time

Just so you know
We were on the run
We were on the verge of revolution
Just so you know
There’s so much to be done
We’re searching thru the maze of our solution

And every moment
It takes until we’re finally in the clear
Moves us closer
To recognizing all these different colors
That stream across the early autumn sky
And gather on the lips and in the words
That form the sounds of our goodbye
Just so you know
Just so you know

about

Mark Rogers Williamsburg, Virginia

With his new LP "Laying It Down", singer/songwriter Mark Rogers cements his place in the indie folk pop scene as not just a reliably strong composer, but as a sonic force to be reckoned with. "Laying It Down" features a certain cinematic texture in lyrical delivery that makes his work flow much better than most.--- Mindy McCall, No Depression, 2019. ... more
