Where The Heroes Go To Die (Scorpio's Surprise Reprise)

Hi everyone,

Quite different from what I've  uploaded up to now.
It all started on a lonely night. Just like that:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/h34b7_k6ya8
I don't remember though if I started the recordings and composing that same night.
The percussion at the beginning is actually done on the guitar (Classical guitar).
Everything was played and recorded. Except for the rising sounds.
Enjoy
And please comment. Reading your comments is better than a coffee ;).

LYRICS

I'd give your pretty head a little shake.
Cos maybe i'm not such a fool.
Ah now, you're out there hanging with the super freaks.
The ones who abhorred you at school. 

There's no reason to be this excited by.
Oh, it's only some shit up your nose.
You look in the mirror from your pallid eyes.
Good lookers never give you a rose. 

The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
They get it for free.
The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
Come get it with me. 

Overestimating your thinking time.
It's seconds not the years that you thought.
The days that you gave in waiting on the line.
Can't count all the shit that you bought. 

Perfecting a lazy impression of.
The dandiest man on the town.
Might fool all the others with your dirty clothes.
Someday everybody comes down. 

The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
They get it for free.
The birds and the bees,
Oh the cows and the trees,
They get it for free.
The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
Come get it with me. 

You think you'll have it down
your nose at us.
Now that it bleeds take a pass.
The wolf is laying right there in your grandma's bed.
My girl what big teeth that he has. 

I'd give your pretty head a little shake.
Cos maybe we're not such a fool.
Ah now, you're out there hanging with the super freaks.
The ones who abhorred you at school. 

The cows in the fields,
Oh they get if for free,
They get it for free.
The birds and the bees,
Oh the cows and the trees,
They get it for free.
The cows in the fields,
Oh they get it for free,
Come get it with me.

Kode of Darkness

Far Side Of Entropy

I wrote this song based on a Charlie Chaplin Movie: "The Circus". 
A story about an actress who wants to break out of her life.
But then I found the old films from my mom in the attic.
It's so amazing, i love it.
The second girl on the uneven bars is my mom.
I dedicated this song to her.

Lyrics:
When you’re ready for your breakneck feat
You’ve practiced hard to defeat

Focused on your skills than move your feet
Release yourself from the straining beat

Dressed in your stunning jersey you will start
to break their hearts with your magic part

Outsmarting gravity with your balance
Than dance, elegance, with a lance in your hand

But they cannot see, how sad your life seems to be.
In your lafayette dress they just see the actress
But not how much prevention you had

If you really wan’t to change your hard life
Like a picture crashed it’s frame
Oh, be care of the broken pane
It might cut you like a flame
And if the fire starts sparkling
There is no one left to blame.


When you dance upon the wire like a bird
No one makes you hurt.
Look at your shadow reflects on the wall
It can’t break into pieces when you fall
And your charme as the spotlight
Let it grows upon the big top.
