Well, the line's been drawn, we'll ignore and we'll invade,
It's best if you run, or get on your knees and pray,
After midnight, bullets…
Thanks for this one Roger.... I'm so sad every day that we live in another era that repeats the same old sins of history. When will humans learn that we can all share and everyone will have enough?

Yep... Not much to say really... But I like how you've done it... Those chords in the chorus/refrain, moves the vibe from "triumphant" to "empty" as you deliver the line.
Hehe... I've spoken to my people... and we'd have been more scared if you'd trade-marked the title somehow... and they said to mention to your lawyer and this Dexter chap that Lorraine "Atomic Blonde" Broughton is a very dear friend of ours and she has a special understanding of the phrase "We're Done" ...hehehe
Wow! I just realised I heard and loved this on Tuesday... and then wrote a thing called "We're Done" on Saturday - I shall go and update my description now!!!
When my kids were babies, my Dad always used to hum a little tune when he was carrying them and trying to settle them down... it's the sweetest, lilting sound, I've hummed it all my life, always thinking of my Dad when it was in my head. I've…

Thoughts dreams and lies
There was something on my mind

Silenced by the message acted out on the TV in a silent mime
A dream of existence now…
The Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn Forming the Christmas
Star left we here breathless. I fiddled with the big foot telescope, Kim with her Ceremonial feathers and all, but we ended just holding hands

Cool song. I like the imagery and the hopeful end to the verses.
My feet are tapping!
Ooooh ooooh oh Mama! Love it
Yeah, why not :)
Nice one.
I like the shuffle and imagery. It has a soaring quality.
Yeah we like this a lot ("we" being Mr & Mrs R)

Great song written about a horrific event. I never thought I’d see this kind of thing happen in the world.
Yep... Not much to say really... But I like how you've done it... Those chords in the chorus/refrain, moves the vibe from "triumphant" to "empty" as you deliver the line.
Good one indeed! Hope it’s fictional and all is okay in the real world
Let’s hope you’re singing about Eunice who just blew in and out your life. Good riddance.

Wooo. Like this one a lot. Making me think of early Status Quo - not entirely sure why. Love the droney sound of the open E.
Nice piece.
I missed this one earlier. Love those beautiful images. Magical
Excellent Roger

Sadly too true for some, my Dad had a wretched childhood thanks to drink and poverty in the 1920's and 1930's. Great song.
