[Verse]
The whisper of a gentle breeze,
As moments drift like waves at sea,
Time flows softly, as we sigh,
And dreams take flight, reaching high.

[Verse 2]
Stars may fade and seasons change,
Yet through it all, our hearts remain,
In every glance, a silent vow,
We'll find our way, here and now.

[Chorus]
As moments drift away, my dear,
We'll hold to every smile and tear,
For in the flow of time, we see,
The beauty of life's melody.

[Verse 3]
Sunsets paint the sky in gold,
Stories of the days retold,
In every touch, a memory,
Of what we've shared, eternally.

[Bridge]
Though shadows fall and nights grow long,
We'll dance along to our own song,
And with each dawn, a new surprise,
A world of wonder in our eyes.

[Outro]
As moments drift away, my dear,
We'll hold to every smile and tear,
For in the flow of time, we see,
The beauty of life's melody.

[End]




As Moments Drift Away

A Dawning

We Didn’t Know We Were Ready (feat. Niamh Regan & Ye Vagabonds)

I go to a fair to buy better rags
And I have the gold in my hand,
The slender man stretches beside me,
And links his arm in mine. 
Soon after that I am tipsy,
I don't care if I'm worn and cold,
Gone is the gold and with it the memory
of seven months without a coat,
and winters crushing hold.

He's slim, dark and handsome,
cunning, well-read, and cool as the snow,
I groaned in pain and I sunk,
in a doorway so damp.
I'd go to Moher or Dún Briste,
and leap from the cliffs,
I can work for him no more,
If only I could be away one a day.

The Banshee Aibell met us,
On the way I needed to go;
She said if the slim black boy would comply
That a hundred men would lock him up in a tower.
The slender man spoke sharply to her,
He said that his friend would not abandon him,
That he walked Ireland through woods and fields
With his company of wastrels raggedly following him.

Tooth and Nail will be out in a few weeks on all streaming platforms, but I wanted to share it with you first. With everything happening in the world, compassion fatigue is real, and I feel like I'm not doing enough. This song is for everyone (and everything) suffering when thoughts, prayers, and vigils aren’t enough. This is for the animals, for Mother Earth, and for anyone under the heel of another.

Did the Mountain Change You?

„Crown Unbound“ 

is a healing song for easing head pressure and mental overload.
Its gentle rhythm and spacious tones help release tension from the head and crown.
A sound journey to soften the mind and open the gateway to clarity.

CROWN UNBOUND (963 HZ)

🎵 Why did you pay, the man in the lifeboat - (Official Lyric Video by Brady Kent) 😢💔🎶 

This track is inspired by the sinking of the Titanic and the debate people have had ever since, about 'The Coward of the Titanic' - J Bruce Ismay. Some say the story is accurate, others say he has been misrepresented. 

I don't know, but this song talks about the events on the day, and how he lived his life afterwards. This song is about the sadness of 1500 people in the water and if it could have been avoided. 

🎵 With haunting melodies and deeply felt lyrics, this song asks the question that needs answering, "Why did you pay, the man in the lifeboat'.

What do you think about the 'Coward of the Titanic ?

Why did you pay, the man in the lifeboat

I dropped them slow, like little lies
Each crumb a shape of home
But I could feel the sky lean in
The trees begin to moan
They watched us walk away too far
Too deep to change our minds
And when the birds began to stir
We left no trail behind

We left no trail behind
We left no trail behind
Oh, We left no trail behind

Feed the crows, feed the crows
They know the way you chose
They’ll eat the road, they’ll eat the light
And leave you with the bones

She held my hand like kindling
Like she knew the end was fire
We slept on roots, we spoke in twigs
And dreamed of bread and wire
But I saw feathers in the dusk
And hunger in the trees
The forest wasn’t keeping us
It taught the crows to feed

It taught the crows to feed
It taught the crows to feed
Oh, It taught the crows to feed
Feed the crows, feed the crows
They circle what you owe
They do not mourn, they do not wait
They take it nice and slow

So now I walk with black-winged ghosts
The path a line of smoke
My sister somewhere deeper still
The woods her wedding cloak
And me, I lay the final piece
Where no one dares to go
A final crumb, a quiet gift—
An altar for the crows

An altar for the crows
An altar for the crows
Oh, An altar for the crows

Feed The Crows

The Simplest Thing

🕯 I Leave Ashes Behind 🕯
A slow-burning soul elegy wrapped in velvet smoke.
No anger. No goodbye. Just the soft hush of someone choosing absence with grace.
Minimalist jazz-inflected instrumentation meets intimate, breath-warm vocals — a departure so quiet, it echoes.

This is not closure. This is sovereignty.
She doesn’t vanish — she simply leaves nothing behind but ash.

🎧 Mood: detached, graceful, unshaken
🖋 Line to remember: “I leave ashes — dry and clean / Like I was never in between.”

Let the silence speak.

I Leave Ashes Behind

---

Verse 1

I don’t need closure, I don’t need grace
I watched it burn and turned my face
No final words, no bitter cries
Just smoke curling through the sky

Pre-Chorus
You’ll search the air for what we were
But darling, I don't leave a blur


---

Chorus

I leave ashes behind
Not love, not hate, not the ties that bind
No trace for you to follow back
No scent of me on your collapse
I leave ashes — dry and clean
Like I was never in between


---

Verse 2

I left the dress, I kept the name
I walk in silence, not in shame
No bags to pack, no doors to close
Just lighter steps where nothing grows

I didn’t flinch, I didn’t stay
I simply turned and slipped away

Pre-Chorus
You’ll search the air for what we were
But darling, I don't leave a blur


---

Chorus

I leave ashes behind
Not love, not hate, not the ties that bind
No trace for you to follow back
No scent of me on your collapse
I leave ashes — dry and clean
Like I was never in between


---

Bridge (the ritual of disappearance)

No candle lit, no mourning song
No looking back to prove him wrong
No trace of me in what you find
Just breath… just dust… just disinclined


---

Final Chorus

I leave ashes behind
Not love, not hate, not the ties that bind
No myth for you to twist or keep
No echo waiting while you sleep
I leave ashes — soft and wide
Then I return to what’s inside
