I’ve been looking for a birthday song
To describe here at 36
But don’t think I can find one
No remedy easy fix
A song is how i measure time
Tween heart beats short and long
Once around the sun and I’m
365 songs

Older
Wiser?
An every day surmiser
Of the fact of my existence
Through melodys and chords

So I’ve been looking for a birthday song
I was 26 when I started
Journey that I’m on
I’ve been beat down and disheartened
But I’ve always gotten up
Whether it’s right or wrong
Once around the sun’s enough
For 365 songs




Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 9+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.

You can see my most current song, as well as songs from year's past over at http://songaday.org
