Screwing up can happen
Naked bodies from the clouds
Orphans asking why

Photographing warzones could be

Lyrics - CM / Music - TB, SM
You’re all alright, I can rest now
Now you’re alright, I can rest
I’ve tried so hard, did my best now
Now you’ve tried hard, did you’re best
My mind’s eye watches from afar
I love you all for all you are…

C Maiorano
You said you wouldn’t, Then you did it
Playful kitten, With a mission
Contradictions, I don’t listen
Too explicit, Here to mention
A pile of twisted wreckage
Always misunderstood
You’ve gone and burned you’re bridges

Here's an instrumental folk Celtic sort of tune I made today. Guitar, bass, pennywhistle, mandolin, bodhran.
Took about 4 hours to record all the parts properly. The result is a delightful minute and a half, I think!

In a lost scrap of rude time
