Mayfly

Mayfly - Piano Solo

on a virgin land, you seem to drift away
on the trail of someone from another plane
from a virgin land, you can't seem to escape
following a scent that comes from nowhere

loud is the chant that no one hears
proud is the man that no one sees

i-i-i-i-i sing to you-u-u-u-u
a-a-a-a-at fifty two-o-o-o hertz

on a virgin land, you seem to waste away
following a voice getting lost in a haze
on a virgin land, you crawl, day after day
following a sound that comes from nowhere

loud is the chant that no one hears
proud is the man that no one sees

i-i-i-i-i sing to you-u-u-u-u
a-a-a-a-at fifty two-o-o-o hertz

She's No Lady (cover) RX2

First line: 'I slept through a hurricane', is true. Posting now from New York, as Henri sails past and the city is bathed in tropical rain... and it's also where I first recorded the piano part, so it seems appropriate. A friend (who I am also visiting tonight) once  told me how he preferred songs that were written on piano to those on guitar. Since 100% of my songs on Soundcloud are guitar based, he inspired me to switch for this one. Serendipity.


WIDE AWAKE

i slept through a hurricane
i didn't feel the driving rain
i slumbered under thunder storms
i never heard those beating drums
but i won’t sleep tonight
I’m wide awake
no i won’t sleep tonight
i’m wide awake
and wide awake is all i wanted…

sleepwalking in the park
through the daylight into the dark
looking alive but falling apart
lost my way when I lost my heart
so i can’t sleep with you
I’m wide awake
no i can’t sleep with you
i’m wide awake
and wide awake is all i wanted…

you found me in this restless state
took me through that open gate
now every touch is what it seems
and all the world’s a fading dream
‘now i will sleep tonight
like i never slept
now i will sleep tonight
like i never slept before
now i will sleep with you
like i never have, now
I will sleep with you…
like i never slept 
like i never slept before…

Wide Awake

Crawling slower,
Every hour,
Where reason blinds,
The defined,
These idle climbs,
Respond in kind,
Drenched in brine,
To preserve the grime,

Falling lower,
Aren’t we sober?
Where madness finds,
A peace of mind,
These vacant rhymes,
Fill empty times,
Ties that bind,
Our own crimes,

Sleep forever,
Till things get better,
Or be left behind,
Within your mind,
Will you live today,
To push away,
Or hate and obey,
A walking cliché,

Falling lower,
Aren’t we sober?
Where madness finds,
A peace of mind,
These vacant rhymes,
Fill empty times,
Ties that bind,
Our own crimes,

These vacant rhymes,
Fill empty times,
Ties that bind,
Our own crimes,

Falling lower,
Aren’t we sober?
Where madness finds,
A peace of mind,
These vacant rhymes,
Fill empty times,
Ties that bind,
Our own crimes.

Reverie

Reverie - Patriz Pacheco

When I was little if my mother described someone getting agitated or angry she would say they 'played pop'... but if they were really angry, especially righteously angry, then they 'raised holy war'... it's not what the song is about, but it explains why it's in my vocabulary.

HOLY WAR

I keep looking for you
In this holy war
But holy wars
Never end

I'm still gunning for you
No matter what the cause
And no matter the cost 
It's all I defend 

And I
Will go anywhere 
Just to fight with you 
On that field again 
Again and again 
Again and again 
Again and again 

I will race you
To the top
I'll make sure we
Never stop
I will never
Hold you
Up Again
Up again
Up high...

I'm looking for you
In this great expanse
Where the field of view
Just Never ends 

I'm running for you
I'm stealing every chance
Oblivious to
The bitter end

Cos I
Will do anything 
Just to run with you 
Through those fields again 
Again and again 
Again and again 
Again and again 

I will race you
To the top
I'll make sure we
Never stop
I will never
Hold you
Up Again
Up again
Up high...

I keep looking for you
In this holy war of ours
May this holy war
Never end...
