Train Leaves Here This Morning (Dillard & Clark cover)

Show Me Your Sexy Tattoo, Lyrics Gerald E. Greene

💜🗝
Strong Tea
Inspired by «Strong Tea or Father» by Shao Qian, this song is written from the voice of a daughter learning to forgive herself for the distance and anger she carried during her father’ s final days. It’s not about perfect closure, but about finding a way to put the past behind. Forgiveness isn’t always clean—it’s slow, uneven, but real—the way a father would.

[Verse 1]
The taste stayed bitter
a child’s never forgets her first bruises
I kept the silence tight-lipped
blaming myself
for time that slipped away

[Pre-Chorus]
I was angry young and afraid
but that was never blame

[Chorus]
I’m learning to forgive myself
slow the way a father would
Strong tea in my chest
still burning still good
the past is gone
but it carried me on

[Verse 2]
I thought my anger was my sin
I thought my silence meant I failed him
but grief was too heavy
and I was still just a girl—
unready unwelcome

[Pre-Chorus]
If he could only see me now
I think he’d want me free

[Chorus]
I’m learning to forgive myself
slow the way a father would
strong tea in my chest
still burning still good
the past is gone
but it carried me on

[Bridge]
No child should wear a crown of shame
no daughter should swallow blame
even prayers for death were still prayers—
still love
still his way

[Final Chorus]
I’m learning to forgive myself
slow the way a father would
strong tea in my chest
bitter but understood
The past is gone
but it carries me on

Strong Tea

WARNING...This track is seven and a half minutes long. But the "guitar" solo which ends the song is a must hear. Suno has really made this track something special for me. I wrote this song with a uke on my lap,  and developed the 8-bar chord sequence which constantly repeats thru' the song. This goes a long way with the lyrics to defining the song. It starts slowly and quietly, but soon continues with an anthemic intensity.. I gave no specific prompt for the long, very long outro solo. Nearly  a minute of superb guitar and a final soft section of piano arpegios, bringing one of my best song to a fianl end.

My Guitar Is on Fire” is a haunting alternative rock anthem about a struggling guitarist’s midnight crossroads deal with a shadowy figure. Dark, cinematic, and guitar-driven, it blends blues legend with modern post-rock energy; explosive riffs, soaring vocals, and a chorus that burns long after the song ends.

The image is interesting. Taken in 1985, I would have been 5 years old. That water doesn't exist there anymore. I have my feet in Djouce mini reservoir. In August 1986, Hurricane Charlie caused it to burst it's banks and it emptied into the river Dargle and caused some fairly bad flooding in our home town of Bray, Co. Wicklow. Djouce Lake is now a dry lake 🔆

Instrumentation
-Piano played on keys
-Ovation Acoustic Guitar 2 rhythm runs
-Bass one through run\
-Epiphone rhythm one run
-Epiphon elead one run
-Vocals one run
-Deep tech logic kit beat following piano for first half of track and then acoustic guitar for second half

To add
-Build a pizzicato string section to follow the acoustic rhythm. Or whatever punchy bow up down technique is. Turn this into a legsro section for the second half and should build the drama nicely
-Bring in high pitched percussion for the interlude at 2min34 and then make that low pitched tribal epicness for the outro section from

Shout out to the masters. Radiohead - The Tourist locked in the 9/8 mode with a few loops before writing the piano line. Love the way they venture different timings. I'm not sure this song is straight 9/8 though. I think they throw in a 12/8 and or a 3/4 at some point in the sections.
Truly the best band of all time in my world. I'm praying hard we get at least one more album 😆🧬🎶

The idea of the title is, let's move out of the metaphorical hell we all see people creating around us and get grounded! ❤️

I'll also note that ascension of awareness from pea head means we end up beside eachother.... No bullshit above and below!🔆


Up to the Ground

Good consciousness of clean
Infinity of one
Flow good now eternal
A christ like glow mind won
Synchronised to system
Forget the old body
I'm always here as spirit
As all life ghost shall be
I am Nana and Papa
I'm all passed life and live
I am potential energy
Just good idea inside
I am a friend of Spiders
I am a partner of Trees
I am a rock that made me
Equals to my seeds
We are not born of sin
This fear phantoms' cruel eye
With naturally selected grin
True spirit doesn't lie
We worship just our heart
Each day holds fresh new know
If we suffer as oppressed 
Still be your light to glow

Bring forth our intellect
Feed emotions matured
Define new perfect
Divined nature
Equal beings
Transcended ego
Magical meme
Shiva shanti dreamer
Good bonefide feel from soul
One greater good collective role
Control of inner balance still
Focused to breath we bend to our will
We've moved into this higher plane
Gone is confusion from physical pain
Ascended we are
Up to the ground
True spiritual God inside we found

Up to the Ground

All my own AI assisted songs, are free to download.

I have been writing songs since1959 until the present. As a songwriter, I am more than happy with the wide range of songs I have written over the years. But my musical skills are quite limited and the early demos on Souncloud are of me singing  and accompanying myself on guitar or latterly ukulele. I can strum the strings well enough, but there my skills end.

Recently I discovered Suno AI and the results astounded me. I could finally produce demos of my songs to be proud of. I am currently going thru my catalogue of songs and producing AI assisted demos. I know many musicians turn away from AI but it has a place for me. There is no other way I could have obtained some 300 demos to this level. I do not and do not intend to look for any reward except the satisfaction that hearing my own songs gives me.

I am still writing and hope to have many more years of songs left in me, Enjoy if you can and I would love to hear your comments on the tracks, if the music moves you at all.
