It Steals Your Soul And You Take Pills To Get It Back

This is a song on which I sing and play pedal steel guitar.  The song is based on a poem by my late aunt:  Pat Brandstetter.  Here is here original poem:

Riding Along
(1994)

Riding along in the car,
Beauty abounds
Wherever you are.
A kaleidoscope of trees 
Tall and green,
A patchwork of 
Lakes large and serene.
The animals look so strong 
And proud from afar.
All this beauty you take in
Riding along in a car.

Never Mind  ft. ZHOCA

Most songs about break-ups, failed relationships and broken friendships are about despair, anger and grief. When I wrote "Goodbye Warrior", I decided to write about a courageous and understanding person, who realised that accusations don't make anything better. Forgiveness is the key. This song is about finding inner strength, and separate in friendship. Maybe we just chose the wrong type of relationship instead of the wrong person.

==== LYRICS ====

You call me a liar
but I don't think I'm that selfish anymore
Your heart is on fire
but I'm not the one you are looking for

Keep the distance for a while
please slow down mile by mile
it is not, that I don't need you 
That's not how the story ends
I want us to be friends

Though I can keep myself upright
Though I own up to every stupid mistake
I can't help the way I feel tonight
Goodbye warrior – Here comes the knight

I dial your number
but I don't succeed in holding the line
I need to see you face to face, yeah
that would be fine …?
 
Keep the distance for a while
please slow down mile by mile
it is not, that I don't need you
That's not how the story ends
Lovelife cancelled - friendship bends

Though I can keep myself upright
Though I own up to every stupid mistake
I can't help the way I feel tonight

Though I can keep myself upright
Though I own up to every stupid mistake
I can't help the way I feel tonight

Today I will stop surrendering
Tonight I'll stop worrying 
I'll be tender, discard my dagger!

Now I can keep myself upright
I won't own up to every stupid mistake
I adore the way I feel tonight

Now I can keep myself upright
I won't own up to every stupid mistake
I adore the way I feel tonight
Goodbye warrior – Here is your knight!

[Verse 1]
They’ve tried for years to box us in, 
To make us all the same
Yet we’ll look for common ground
Ain’t pieces of their game

[Verse 2]
Different stories, different past 
We all rise as one
No beauty in a mirror
When the glass is numb

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh - oh, feel the rhythm, feel the unity
Oh - oh different sparks, but watch em rise

[Chorus]
We shine through shade, every shape, every name
A masterpiece in motion, 
never meant to be the same
We have the art to illuminate 
Beauty in diversity

We elevate 

[Verse 4]
Diversity and colour
If we all thought alike
Rather blend our voices strong
A screen of unity

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh, feel the rhythm, feel the vibe
Oh-oh, different sparks but watch them rise

[Bridge]
Look around, can’t you see
We’re a wave, we’re a sea
Every difference, every hue
We’re beautiful individuals

[Chorus]
We share our praise 
A masterpiece in motion, 
Our batteries full, we illuminate 
Beauty in diversity
Yea that’s how we elevate 

[verse]
We are beauty, shine as one
We are diversity - the power of choice
We’re beauty in diversity,
Beauty in diversity 

[Outro]
Beauty in diversity 
One voice one sound
Beautiful diversity 

Self worth
Stand proud
