Eyes they have, but they see not, ears they have, but they do not hear, a mouth they have, but they can not speak...And those worshiping them will become just like them. You did justice to this piece Rick.
The sleep is still in my eyes
The dream is still in my head
I heave a sigh and sadly smile
And lie a while in bed
I wish that it might come to pass
Not fade like all my dreams
Just think of what my life might be
In a world like I have seen
I don`t think I can carry on
Carry on this cold and empty life
My spirits are low in the depths of despair
My lifeblood spills over
"...I have not left this cave for days now, it has become my last refuge in my total despair. I have only the music of the waterfall to comfort me now. I can no longer live under the control of the Federation, but there is no other place to go. My last hope is that with my death I may pass into the world of my dream, and know peace at last."
2112 part VI: Soliloquy
The protagonist returns to the cave and broods for "days". He imagines "what my life might be in a world like I have seen", and now considers life under the Federation "cold and empty", with his spirits "low in the depths of despair". He resolves that, in order to "pass into the world of my dream, and know peace at last", he must take his own life— his narrative ending as "my life blood spills over."
One of the most famous soliloquies in literature is Hamlet's where he contemplates suicide, saying "To sleep, perchance to dream". The title of the song movement indicates a similar struggle where the protagonist chooses the liberation of spirit "that with my death I may pass into the world of my dreams, and know peace at last".
ONE TIN SOLDIER
Listen children to a story
That was written long ago
'Bout a kingdom on a mountain
And the valley folk below
On the mountain was a treasure
Buried deep beneath a stone
And the valley people swore
They'd have it…

Sweet dreams are made of these
Who am I to disagree
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want…

I used to play this in my High School band while shaking the hair out of my eyes.
Ahhh … . . *Those were the days*
Now I play mostly acoustic and I never worry about my hair getting in the way.
Progress? Maybe not, but it's still fun to think about.
Thanks for the memory

My version of a Neil Young song.

There's colors on the street -- Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet -- People sleepin' in their shoes
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
There's a lot…

Since my baby left me
I found a new place to dwell
It's down the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
You're makin' me so lonely, baby
I get so lonely, I get so lonely, I could die
Though it's always crowded
You still can find…

I don't remember a whole lot about this one. I wrote it along with two others in my bedroom at my parents' house, probably in 1993 or 94. I know the idea was to write stuff that I might be able to sing and play at the same time. This was played…
Originally written in my bedroom in 1992 or so. Later rewritten and played by Prime Meridian from 1998-2000. It was basically forgotten about until I found it on a tape in 2004 and brought it out for Break Even.
Written during a spring break writing experiment in 1999. Write one song a day. I did it pretty easily. This is about a photo of my grandmother that I saw at her wake in 1998.
Written at Northeast Broadcasting School as an experiment in replacing recorded sounds with samples. It was played pretty much as is by Prime Meridian in about '99 or '00 or so. It was heavily reworked and played by Break Even from '03-'05 and…
This is a very cool arrangement, with a fabulous rhythm, a sexy bass, a slick guitar, and a gripping vocal line. An excellent mix-down and mastering job. Keep tearing it up and Rock on!
Well it's funky Friday down here in the cellar and James has forced me to get it on…well he hasn't exactly forced me i was willing so here it is for Funky Friday………...
It seems i haven't had a moment ...life is very busy when you have a baby that doesn't want to sleep, i have found........I had a little time tonight to mess about and i came up with a little tune, then i saw this word "Bastardized" and thought…
A very colorful use of sound -- waves spread about like paint on the brush gainst a canvass, moving to and fro. The resulting paint, abstract and sur-real, is quite beautiful albeit with the gloom of late Autumn.

The single coil sound of my new used PRS guitar just got me in the funk. Had this partial riff on a Sony walkman from 10 years ago, decided to fill it out a little.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely....
Lyrics:
One cloudless night, freedom's candle was snuffed
Kicked and punched, gagged and cuffed
They took him away, for what he's not
Then cracked his skull, as a gesture for his…

My psychedelic folk version of the 6th movement of the 2112 suite by the extraordinary Canadian progressive metal power trio called RUSH.
Soothing smiles of mercy. There's definetly some sad taste behind this. I like it
Growl! IAA

Comments made by Justin Otter Guy
Beautifully written and performed, but what a sad truth you've expressed!
Dig! I got off on this one! Rock on!
A rather catchy composition -- I dig the way you think musically. Simply put, you ROCK!
Very interesting lyrics. Diggin' the mood of the music, the way it underlines the words as does the vocals. An altogether powerful composition!
This is a very cool arrangement, with a fabulous rhythm, a sexy bass, a slick guitar, and a gripping vocal line. An excellent mix-down and mastering job. Keep tearing it up and Rock on!
Nailed it! Excellent job! Rock on!
Far out!
Wahwahwonderful! Funkilicious! Deeply groovy. Yeah yeah! Rock on!
I sooo totally dig your approach to this classic. Wondrous! Rock on!
Marvelously groovy! A bit outside the box, and then maybe a few inches away from there! A fun, entertaining, delightful ditty, for sure. Rock on!
You're using sound like paint, generating images in my mind. Tribal, Hypnotic, and Creepy (THC), just like I like it! Groovy and far out -- Rock on!
Oh holy dookie you're a frinkin' guitarist from hell! Wow! You are on fire -- Rock the Hell on!
I sooooo love this! You ROCK! Rock on!
It has an apprpriate name -- I noted the shards right off, keeping a grand rhythm. But I was particularly intrigued by the dangling, melodic noodles.
A very colorful use of sound -- waves spread about like paint on the brush gainst a canvass, moving to and fro. The resulting paint, abstract and sur-real, is quite beautiful albeit with the gloom of late Autumn.
Nice, tight togetherness, nice mix-down, right professional job -- Rock on!
Groove on! Rich, sweet, rapturing, jazzy, bluesy, funkalicious, gripping. A great compilation with a smooth, slick hand. You're awesome -- Rock on!
Rock on!
Fun!
ROCK ON!!!
