Verse 1
He was on a path to nowhere, then he raised his head
One day, he opened up his eyes and this is what he said to me.

Pre-Chorus 1
Brother I won’t hurt you, I’ll always be your friend
But if I don’t do something, with my life soon it will end
And you see, there’s no point in me carrying on, unless I change my evil ways.

Chorus
I’m gone, I’m moving on, I’m rolling down this road alone
I’m gone, I’m moving on, So raise a glass for me, farewell
I’ll see you soon on the other side, and it will be my brand-new day.

Bridge
Black sheep I know - We fall down
Addictions we bleed - We hold on
Hallelujah - Be strong
The brother I keep - He’s long gone

Verse 2
Seven years and not a word
Seven years I dreamed of change
And then, he showed up at my door
This is what he said to me

Pre-Chorus 2
Brother, please forgive me, for never coming home
I didn’t have the strength to stay here, the temptations long been gone
Believe me, I’ve bled my last drop of tainted blood, and I’ve changed my evil ways

Chorus 2
Long gone, back where I belong, I’ve found my way down the road back home
Long gone, back where I belong, Please open your hearts to me again
Or I’ll see you soon on the other side, and it’ll be my brand-new day

Brother

2024-09-22 AM:
Cleaned up the intro (there were hesitations in the in-universe news bulletin) and balanced the vocal levels so the instrumentals weren't drowning the singing out.  This was a struggle because one intermediate remaster this morning went too far the other way and it sounded like I was doing spoken poetry with very faint instruments!

Foul-Mouthed Parrot (Remastered)

Buy on Beatport

"Trevor Said" by These Guitars Say Sorry is a raw, emotional acoustic ballad featuring only percussively strummed guitar and heartfelt vocals delivered in a distinct British accent. With minimalist instrumentation, the song paints vivid portraits of everyday struggles and personal stories, blending folk-rock with social commentary. The stripped-down arrangement allows the poignant lyrics and gritty vocal performance to take center stage, echoing influences from British folk and working-class protest songs. It's a powerful reflection on life’s hardships, resilience, and the scars we carry.

Lyrics

Trevor said he never expected
The thoughts in his head to amount to anything 

Jennifer sits alone in her bedroom
Wondering why the phone never rings


Cathy thinks she wants a divorce
Her husband Jeff doesn’t know it yet


Lucia’s worked 10 years in a factory 
Doesn’t see her kids
But it pays the rent


Can I paint you a picture?
Have you seen it before?
The life and the love and the loss
And yet you ask for more


Life is hard, you can pretend but anyway
How frail we are
Here tomorrow gone today
The pain’s so sharp take me, take me far away
Yet here we are
Showing off the scars we made


Edna said she never expected
To live this long but the end is nigh


The teenage years are always the hardest
Melissa texts and wonders why 

David’s waiting for life to get started 
Anna wishes she had a plan


Christian sits there broken hearted
Thomas is ready to make a stand


Can I paint you a picture?
Have you seen it before?
The life and the love and the loss
And yet you ask for more


Life is hard, you can pretend but anyway 
How frail we are
Here tomorrow gone today
The pain’s so sharp take me, take me far away
Yet here we are
Showing off the scars we made


You can pretend but anyway
You can pretend but anyway
Life's Hard

Being musician and artist "since ages", the last two decades and all the developments in digital music broadened my interests and activities in doing music actively and passively. Not being shy of any genre (OK, leave off some Punk and Extreme Metal derivates) I engage in composing, arranging, mixing and collaborating. 

Oh, and I do all my artwork and designs as well. And as you may notice I regard AI as a friendly helper.

Have a few looks & listens into my repertoire and eventually gain some insights. I'm always open for collabs if the the interests match ...
