   About Acacia
Acacia is a California based band who are influenced by a wide variety of contemporary and traditional music. Opening for bands as diverse as Fishbone, Sons of Champlin, The Benevento/Russo Duo and The Jazz Mandolin Project, Acacia blends their collective influences into a style that is accessible yet all their own. They have performed high energy shows at many festivals on the west coast and have headlined such venues as the Galaxy Theater and the Coach House in Southern California. Acacia strives to create original and inspiring songs that lift and compel the listener with vocal harmonies, strong grooves and swelling jams, allowing for a complete musical experience. The interplay between members can be as soft and warm as candle light or as raging and rebellious as a wildfire.

Late night drunken ramblings,

I didnt realize I wrote so much.
Acorn





May 11 2008 2:13 AM

Some write the path
with victory
some write it in stone
Some fight all thier lives
and some walk all alone

and that whirl wind
spins us all around
but we find our way
we touch the ground
and put on that
golden crown

who ever is
let them be who
they are

Even if you cant here
us we are singing
and we mean
it is in us

and we feel it
we just sometimes
cant express this

everyone I know
means well
they just hurt
like a pile of dirt

If I could star again
I would do it as a friend
It means so much to me
this litte pile of free

So I sat by the railroad track
tryin to get back
to what the dyin
fellow said

I paid for what what i
done so why do I have
to feel so unsung

my love can be felt
through a dying rose
or even on the way
to your head from your toes

but mister im just a man
with a helpin hand
so god bless you for
helpin me with nothin

cause nothins all I got
no matter what I have
so let this be lesson
to those who have a lot

cause we all get tears
in our eyes
when times get tough
and friends just cant
be found

but i am there for you
no matter what life brings
and you dont know the joy
of the songs you sing

but when life comes hard
ill play my part
when darkenss comes at me
ill be true like so you
sail on

so you can sail on by
you just need to shine
all of dreams our on there
way

Im right beside you even though
im far away
im here to stay
Acorn

What went through your mind
sometimes its hard to find
those things that are behind
so hard to rewind

but the suns so bright
like gods burnin light
how could you miss it
i just want to kiss it

your eyes have light
that make it alright
my words just flow
with a burnin glow

where did it come from
where will it go
life is uncertien
some never will know

but i know you do
that why i give you
a song to sing
that will never be sung

a friendship thats known
but will never be shared
something Ive felt
still can never impress

where I want it to go
something interupts the flow
someone to who cares
someone who dares

some one whos there
whos been where
youve been
and knows

what grows
in your brain
believe me it sane
reach out and grab it
it there

one step away
what are you waiting for
your life is in store
its not the liqour whore

but its there
dare
you
yourself

reach out and grab it
all your life
it changes
maybe just a little bit

there is no one who compare with you
when I think of love
i think of you
Acorn





May 11 2008 2:36 AM

When the words flow its
like nothin at all
but they all mean so much
its not just a hunch

it told you so so damn your lies
a sat on the beach they
just tried to leach
the love I had for you

I gun to the head
a noose and the color red
yeah I seen that too
walkin around with no shoes

your life is callin
from start to finish
the pedals fallin
you must go and I must find

but i want to know you
like I never have
Ill be here in sunshine
or in shadows

but when life seems
like its dying
ill be here for you
i wont by lying

a sweeter life we know will be
i will rest i peace
that i know is me
a truer state ive found
thats free

why dont you come to your senses
youve be climin fences
you lifes been hurtin
you should be learnin

draw the ace of diamond
shes your best bet
you aint seen her yet

but freedom
its jut you prison walkin
dont be alone
we all get cold

your highs and lows
dont let them go away
don be that way
stray

let somebody love you
Acorn

A field that was green
I saw it one time
with some friends I loved
I miss them

A bed I layed in
at the wrong time
and a new friend with
an aggresive energy

I drove a thousand miles
through the burnin sand
just to be with you

and I barely got to see you
when I really wanted to
A girl was there,
but there are so many of them

our friendship is like
a field of diamonds
that has been covered
with the tears of angels

I remember days of everyday
now Im lucky to get one
and sometimes there shared
with ones i dont know

like the night you
passed me by
the stars are so beautiful
so far apart

sharing thier light
all by themselves
I remember times of
sight we shared one night

Im not the first to cry
I wont be the last
but I know the love Ive felt
And I miss when I melt

Love is Love and it
does not change
and thats what I
have for you

I hope this reaches
you the way I mean
It to

The grounds so hard
sometimes it dont
get through

im doing alright
maybe never been
better

i love you guys
some dont know
how but i do and
thats whats now

I came to a place
where the world
was barley a trace
and I saw what was
important and knew
it couldnt be tied
with a lace
It had to be held
with complete embrace

the villagers said
there our friendship
could die, but I
never would allow it

So im lettin you go
'cause I cant take
another heartbreak
I love you to much
for all that

But I do hope
I see you again

I love Acacia like finding your girlfriend after a long psychedelic experience.

Or like seeing an old friend after a long trip.

Like being with some one you trust.

Taking your dog for a walk to a hot spring and meeting up with 15 girls in bikinis.

The look in the eye of beautiful girl who passes you by.

And then you find...


The hug of and old friend

A 3 AM conversation about how much you love a person.

Sitting alone and realizing how beautiful it is to be alive.

Those are some of the ways I love Acacia.
Hilary

They stoped by for a while,
they just couldn't stay
Just for a smile,
I wish it was today
Way Way out on the Isle of Pile

He was a smiler
A baguette relier
crumb maker beguiler
Loved to get higher and higher
pants without fire
He was the Irie piler

A cactus and a Palm relate
like two friends
Not knowing their fate
knew not to pretend
It was a clean slate

He was a smiler
A baguette relier
crumb maker beguiler
Loved to get higher and higher
pants without fire
He was the Irie piler

Have you ever seen
A frustrated ocean
A bored forrest
A wind without motion
A life unlived
An unatural commotion
The Isle of Pile
gave me that notion.

He was a smiler
A baguette relier
crumb maker beguiler
Loved to get higher and higher
pants without fire
He was the Irie piler

Someday I'll be back
With a lived heart i'm sure
filling some spaces I lack
with some time that is pure
and an energy to atract
The Isle of Piles allure
