 it was a very big pleasure working with this one with Gaxillic Productions! good vibrations! thanks again!

LYRICS:

Said i walked down my street
and i've got my cats walking with me
almost the end of the road
and still no one saw me

i've got a lot lot lot of answers on my mind
but no questions to go with it
it makes me so nervous to see
the poor and rich fighting for nothing yeah
i just c'ant beleive how i feel
oh someone please do something yeah

so i sat down under a big tree
two minutes to think oh am i free?
i've got to find a job man for my dream
but all i can do is, to sing!
so i lokked up the sky, got on my knees
and i tought of my wife, my cats and my kids
oh i could have sold my soul too but i beleive
we d'ont need any money to have a good sleep 
so all i can say now is, stand up and scream
before your life end like, one two and three

Realise

Realise (Gaxillic productions)

Take off! These chains are falling away.
There's a message in your morning I just can't face.
I lay myself down, and I dream.
One day, there'll come a moment I can't breathe.

Lift off! I'll never follow you home.
Won't you give me Hill and Valley where I can roam?
A little corner for my peace.
This town has gotten dirty, and I can't leave.

There must be somewhere I should be?
There must be something I can't see?
There must be something I could take?
There are so many rules to break.
I throw it all away.

Hold up? You're old. Not feeling so great.
True, I see your storm clouds gather, and I'm tempting fate.
You don't leave any space to dream.
Left it all behind, just wasted behind the scenes.

There must be something I could be?
There must be someone I can see?
I'm running out of pills to take.
It's just another rule to break.
I throw it all away.

Get up! I will not be on my way.
You can wait another lifetime before I fade.
You see, my field is evergreen.
I still think in terms of what I've yet to see.

Take off! These chains are falling away.
There's a message in your morning I just can't face.
I lay myself down, just to dream.
One day, there'll come that moment I won't breathe.

There must be somewhere I should be?
There must be something I can't see?
There must be something I could take?
There are so many rules to break.
I throw it all away.

There Must Be Something

The track features the sampled sounds of a raven, a crow, a cobra, a rattlesnake and a pig .  This particular combination is  a world-first .  It is aiming for an organic effect .  Also be sure to listen out for some "truck-driver " key shifts.

Dusk

Bluebird, you will never reach the sky.
So keeping hidden, raise your voice up to the night.
I'll drink my whiskey, smoke my cigarettes till dawn.
The world is frozen, but this fireside is warm.

I was calling out.
I was falling out.
I was broken and bored.
I was reaching out.
I was hanging round.
I was waiting to soar.
Wanting more.
Wanting more.

Bluebird, you will never get away.
(Why would you even want to get away?)
You're only memories, all the rest will have to stay.
(Back in your cage where all the best birds stay)
Hidden only by the pretence that they care.
Like circles drifting from the centre to the air.

I was wondering out.
I was holding out.
I was broken and cold.
I was never round.
I was on the ground.
I was getting too old.
In the cold.
In the cold.

Wanting more.
Wanting more.

Bluebird, are you singing in my heart.
(Singing out from down within my heart)
They must've noticed, you were broken from the start.
(You were broken from the very start)
I'll keep on dreaming, won't you tell me what you saw?
(Just a little hint at what you saw)
When you left me, and I couldn't see no more.
(What am I to do? I can't see more)

Are you calling out?
Are you falling out?
Are you broken and bored?
Are you reaching out,
Are you hanging round?
Are you waiting to soar?
Wanting more.
Wanting more.

Well, you can run, but you can't hide.
There's no escape, from what's inside.
Well, we all live, and then we die.
Imagination helps you get on by. (x2)


Bluebird

90's inspire rock produced in Metro Detroit.

Look at you save the day pushing weary souls out of the way.
I guess I'm on my own.
It's not your call, it's not your lie. Excuse yourself from action all the time.
It doesn't have to be this way.
10 years of being sore. Leaves you wanting so much more 
Who will help you?

Cast aside the broken laws, and saddle up for one more cause.
Painting picture you want to see, like a bag of candied misery.
A can of whoop-ass it's all the same. Common sense is so mundane.
Learn the lesson. Who will save you?

Why try to help me when ribbons in your hair is all they see.
You're not the one that they deceive. 
Unmarked grave for one you love, viewing history from high above.
Above another moral line.
Dime store economists say salvation cannot exist.
Who will help you?

Cast aside the broken laws, and saddle up for one more cause.
Painting picture you want to see, like a bag of candied misery.
A can of whoop-ass it's all the same. Common sense is so mundane.
Learn the lesson. Who will save you?

And then we walk away. Honest wage and simple ways left behind.
And then we run away. You decide who will fly, learn the lesson.

Lessons

This is the lastest track i've been working on

nostalgia

Do you see me floating strangely?
From where I stand you look tiny.
I catch raindrops coming at me
The winds push me away from thee. 

I'm glad to leave the Earth honey
I'll be soon there. You won't see me.
The stratosphere is pulling me
I'll be soon there. You won't miss me.

Birds around me act so gently
They sing and dance. It's so pretty.

I'm glad to leave the Earth honey
I'll be soon there. You won't see me.
The stratosphere is pulling me
I'll be soon there.
You won't miss me.

And suddenly, I move fastly
I see the stars and some galaxies
It's like I am outside my body
I'll be soon there. You won't miss me.

You Won't Miss Me

Lunchtime

One Step Closer Demo

The love, you could never get back

Never get back
Never get back 
Never get back

The love I had never felt, wish I could get this from Mom, 

but now all of it is gone, just like all those years ago.

I miss you so much, puppy
