Willie's Love Child

Keeps The Candy Tight

Who I Am

Endless

There's a song about love, you see
About the fire in your soul and the misery
It’s got all the lines, the heartbreak and cries
Where love lifts you up, then punches your eyes

But isn’t it something, isn’t it strange
To write about love in this clinical cage?
It's all metaphors, hearts torn and burning
Same as the last tune, we’re barely learning

It’s a song about nothing, and I mean it, too
Verse after verse, yeah, we’re just passing through
No wars, no peace, no heroes that sing
This one’s a song that don’t mean a thing

Now there’s that big track about fighting the power
For social injustice, the darkening hour
Yeah, we’ll bang the drums and shout in rhyme
‘Bout how everything’s awful most of the time

But do we solve it? Nah, not today
Just riff on the problems and look away
Sing like we’re soldiers, but don’t hit the street
Hey, singing in safety is kinda sweet

It’s a song about nothing, and I mean it, too
Verse after verse, yeah, we’re just passing through
No wars, no peace, no heroes that sing
This one’s a song that don’t mean a thing

Let’s get deep, write a verse introspective
Like I’m some sage or the world’s detective
Sing about doubting, imposter inside
Like I’m the only one along for this ride

Yeah, we’re so complex, so layered and grand
With our earnest guitars and our five-piece band
But do we solve it? Nah, we just play
Deep as a puddle at the end of the day

It’s a song about nothing, and I mean it, too
Verse after verse, yeah, we’re just passing through
No wars, no peace, no heroes that sing
This one’s a song that don’t mean a thing

And so here we stand, no topic, no end
No big revelation, no message to send
Just four chords and a hook, all out of space
A song about nothing, a lyrical chase

So clap along, it’s empty and bold
Just a catchy tune that’s already old
It’s empty and hollow, a beautiful bluff
Yeah, sometimes nothing is just enough

A Song About Nothing

The Snake, a Bargain, a Common Fate

Dazed - B'sides, we're complacent 
In this dying world 
As we got a common fate
Too proud to atone

The horses run the race 
Even wearing blindfolds
And, forced to keep the pace

The cost to play is staged
'F you wage rather than own
Hounds will count the days
To take the throne

With fangs within estates
Stake the land and claim a loan
The snake appears so brave


[Short Chorus]
Don't write a sin about me
So, don't you write a sin about me
You got no medicine without me
Drug you off the cave, and now you blame me?
Now that you pray, you try to blame me
Now that you can think, try and replace me...
No...


Faded - What could have conveyed
A motion to disown
Those words are mutilated 
Into what's opposed

In pages we portrayed 
Our most beloved ones
But lost what we translate

What's convenient for today
Oh, Pick your bone
Write in your own name
In two tablets of stone

The bargain you acclaim 
Might be great, but you should know
Not to idolize the Snake!


[Long Chorus]
Don't write a sin about me
So, don't you write a sin about me
You got no medicine without me
Drug you off the cave, and now you blame me?
...
No way you win without me
You'd still be climbing trees without me
So go and sing a praise about me
Thinking it's your God, when you made me
Thanking your God, when you lay with me
Thanking your God, when you lay with me
Thinking it's your God, when you made me
Him...

[Solo]

[End Chorus]
Don't write a sin about me
So, don't you write a sin about me
You got no medicine without me
Drug you off the cave, and now you blame me?
...
No way you win without me
You'd still be climbing trees without me
So go and sing a praise about me
Thinking it's your God, when you made me
...
Don't write a sin about me
So, don't you write a sin about me
You got no medicine without me
Thinking it's your God, when you made me
Him...

Cold Shoulder Of Snow

“When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love ...” 
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

About the song: Each moment is precious but mostly drudgery. Therefore drudgery is precious. But the person singing cannot see that.

The production: Partly an exercise getting away from Logic stock drummer. Finding a drummer with extra time is tough on SC plus I am impatient. The piece does use Logic drum samples but they are edited and re-crafted, plus mixed with my keyboard-based drumming. This project started in May but tried many bridges before going with this Jam-based version. If you listened within the first hour or two you got a completely different bridge which consisted of a piano & cello mini-performance! It was a bit of a jarring transition however so I replaced it with layered, building guitars an hour or so after release. Since then have remastered it 4 times, including one from landr.com uploaded at around 1:30pm on 11/8/2017 New York time.  LANDR has really improved since I first tried it in 2015 but if I spend even a few dedicated minutes in iZotope I can usually top it. Getting harder though.


Coming down to living
coming down.
Going up to sleeping
Going down.
Wondering what is up
and who’s around.

Coming and going
Sleeping not sleeping
Going and coming
Living not living.

Open up to seeing
open up.
Closing down to hearing
Closing down.
Wondering who is lost
and who is found .

Coming and going
Sleeping not sleeping
Going and coming
Living not living.

Reaching up to hold you
reaching up.
Slipping through my fingers
slipping though.
Wishing there was more
that I could do.


Coming and going
Sleeping not sleeping
Going and coming
Living not living.

Coming down to living
coming down.
Coming down to living
coming down.

Coming and going
Sleeping not sleeping
Going and coming
Living not living.
