No explanations left to give apologies over
She wanted more than the story, but nobody told her
I hear the insane are hardly worth the medication
But she'd like the story just the same, for when she gets older
It's not the end…

Wait for the room to focus
Feeling around for closure
The whiteness of my skin
The pale reflecting eyes
The beaty of total darkness
Move to the door and open
Room after room of sorrow
Breathing through your mouth
Flooding from your eyes…

I sail northward against the wind
My hope erased by the wages of sin
I have no way to break the ice
I’m frozen with chains of tomorrow
I have no fear of getting through
The feelings I lost without starting
It’s our little game not…

You say the world is too complicated
You say close your eyes forget it all
Nobody sold me a bridge in the desert
Nobody remembers with our eyes closed tight
You say somedays just a point of view
You say someones not much different
Nobody…

So wide awake the hands are still
Too tired to keep them silent
It barely pokes above the surface
It hardly registers among the crowd
So long and waves the farwell
We’d better tell the authorities
Goodbyes are so beautiful
Disappear…

Seasons start to change without much worry
Ordinary days no reason to remain
The clouds will force the rain realize its glory
Nothing keeps us sane better start to hurry
Slow monkey cabin fever
Free clinic dirty needle
They’ve gone…

If I scream louder
Could you understand

Screaming at the top of my lungs

You know, son, when you turn up the amplifier that high it creates a harsh and unpleasant sound. If you turn it down a little it lets the natural beauty of the guitar tone show through! And then maybe you wouldn't have to strain your voice so much to sing over it!

Making music everyday alone in my dark hole
Pumping out my silliness for not a single soul
Stinking up the internets with links to stupid songs
Oblivious that no one clicks and no one sings along
There’s a word for people like me…

Friends hate you in every way
You fuck them over every day
Jobless homeless knocked up too
Revolving cycle is what you do
2 cars on blocks in the front yard
Complain how life is really hard
Think you don’t deserve this pain…
Karma is not a fantasy. It's the only thing you can count on in life because you reap what you sow. Watch out for those weeds you don't see growing until they've killed off your harvest!
Although Asimov doesn't have a story directly named after the super-computer, it does
appear in many of his sci-fi stories, and is related to many of the stories that inspired
these compositions. So, it is fitting as it serves a bit of a 'overture…
this is a great idea. I did an album based on the novels of Haruki Murakami and one based on "the Talisman" by Stephen King. It's in the grand tradition of musical composers to base one's art on other mediums and works and this is definitely a success!
from the album "Que Vive!"
you’re so much like me that I’m not sure
where I begin and you end
sometimes I even see through your eyes
your shi brown eyes
still innocent
you’re so refined, that I can’t
fake any more lies
you’re clutching…
A RPM 2012 warm-up, using Angie Fights Crime's words:
she hides her heart under the pillow
waiting for the good fairy to come
replace this worn and broken thing
with a heart that can feel again
she’s never sure which night will be her lucky one…
Were you not there
I'd have fallen through I swear but hey
You were unaware
That I'd built up a dependence on you
Well alright
Never mind, I'll find salvation in a needle
or a bottle of somekind.
you were to me
somewhere between a saint and…
Reg has re-leaved his inner thespian tonight in another reading........... this time........... The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge...Done in one take mistakes and all ......he hadn't come across this one since his school…
the honor is all mine. how great for some dumb hick in kansas city to write a bunch of songs and all these incredible artists step up and record them for free. seriously, i'm humbled beyond words.
New original. I hope you find it enjoyable. And if you're willing to leave a comment, I'd love to hear your feedback. :)
Lyrics, for those who like them:
Grey fisted clouds in the sky. Plaid skirt and innocent eyes,
And I am no longer sane…
Reg has added some lyrics to the Slowdown piece.....Reg has just realized that its ok! to get clean, but now he's got to stay like it the rest of his life ...................and that's a long time to be sober...............
Flinch
I'm guilty
I took the bait again
And here I am again
Always with the same stupid grin
And I didn't go as planned
Few things do I've learned
From the top I pulled it
but I didn't see how far you'd go
didn't I see you flinch…
This is a song about finding momentary escape from the pain of loss.. and having it interrupted by the realisation that it's the anniversary of the day it all started;
Some days I get up
and I go to the park
and I sit in the dark

Some may say that given time, every one messes up and thinks of no one else,
Sins their sin, their selfish acts.
But you I would have sworn were different, a faithful heart.
Not without fault, but I never thought you would cut me like that.

i'm working on my cover, it may take me a week or 2, it's complicated song, mostly the lyrical delivery, which i don't want to change. everything else though, has got to go.
Comments on angie fights crime's stuff
I think I'll cover this one. :)
Still haven't decided which of your tunes I'm going to cover yet though I've been listening through. :) (This is boynamedbri btw.)
Like Your voice....good song
Nice cover :)
you have a great grasp on mixing
like your stuff
very cool ...love the instrument choices...great mix
An excellent album so far will be back to hear the rest
Agree with Alex nice melody...liking that bass working hard too
Who really cares? your right... no one..we all look the other way concentrating on our own thing
Loving your sound
Sometimes only total darkness will do excellent vocal and sound especially the Bass driving the sadness
it's really about my anger management problems.
i actually had the volume turned pretty low to record this, it sounds big because of my huge nuts.
check out www.thescope.ca on Monday evening

I love the "epic fail", that's hilarious. This album rocks it.
if i scream louder will i lose my voice?

Haha, no, I didn't know you sampled me. Love it!

i beg to difer on the "it needs a rapper" comment. i hear beyonce singing a groovy little number on this.

I just realized the title of the CD has to do with pulling yourself away from this awesome music and getting back to work. No, I won't like it.
goddamn i love this album that nobody listened to. i could play these songs all day and never get tired of them.
that's very cool and unlike anything I'm doing with em, so awesome!
so many words. Nicely done!!
you should check the Iron Maiden version. It's pretty f'in awesome.
the honor is all mine. how great for some dumb hick in kansas city to write a bunch of songs and all these incredible artists step up and record them for free. seriously, i'm humbled beyond words.
i think you already know that i think you should quit your day job already and get on a Major Record Label and Make BUCKETS of FREE CASH! marvelous.
another masterpiece guys, seriously, fantastical stuff! and you're right, i don't like it, i LOVE it!
oh hell yes, this one, THIS ONE!
holy wow!
hell yes.
you are easily the most prolific songwriter on the planet. i bow in awe!
me like.
if i never write another song as long as i live, you made it worth it with this.
