@wyatt-turner: Thanks man! I really appreciate the input that you have been giving me :) you are pretty much the only person to have been so involved with my music, by which I mean taking time to comment and correspond with me :) All of my tunes are very personal and organic to the extent of reflecting my state of mind at the time of composition so i generally do not set out with any genre in mind! I hope to bring out a lot more good stuff in time. I am working on a very special piece at the moment and I will share a demo with you if you would like to give me some feedback! cheers, and again, thanks! best of luck with your endeavours!

Two Goats. Living in a tower. Do you know they have psychic power?

Two Goats

This is a song I wrote 5 years ago and I finally got to recording it. The lyrics are open to interpretation.

Thank you to Attie Basson for adding your mad bassing and vocal harmonizing skills. Also a big thank you to Josua de Vries for adding some backing vocals.

Lyrics:

The Fountain

The illusion pulls me back in
Sheep following a dream of hope
Drinking from the fountain we use to swim in

Can you see my eyes?
Slowly I start to lose my mind (x2)

Leaving all bad things behind, control me
There’s no enemy only negative intensions (x2)

The illusion pulls me back in
Sheep following a dream of hope
Drinking from the fountain we use to swim in

Can you see my eyes?
Slowly I start to lose my mind (x2)

Follow your dreams, swim in the ocean
Follow your dreams and observe the beauty in it all
Follow your dreams, swim in the fountain
Follow your dreams and observe the beauty in it all

Leaving all bad things behind, control me
There’s no enemy only negative intensions (x2)

Follow your dreams, swim in the ocean
Follow your dreams and observe the beauty in it all
Follow your dreams, swim in the fountain
Follow your dreams and observe the beauty in it all

The Fountain

This song is inspired by the story of Noah and the intense decisions he had to make.

Thank you to Attie Basson for recording the bass and thank you to Josua de Vries for adding the beautiful sound of your keyboard!

Lyrics:

Too Many People

There’s just too many people
On this fucking planet
If you had the chance would you
Kill every last one (x2)

Including yourself
To save the Earth
For what it’s worth

We are like a disease
Spreading hate and not peace
There’s war all the time
Yet we think we’re doing fine

This is a stupid song
It proves nothing wrong
It serves no purpose
So here’s another verse

There’s just too many people
On this fucking planet
If you had the chance would you
Kill every last one (x2)

Including yourself
To save the Earth
We must learn to live
In peace


Too Many People

From the remastered edition of Kill 'Em All, available on April 15, 2016.

Remastered by Howie Weinberg at Howie Weinberg Mastering, Los Angeles, CA

The Four Horsemen (Remastered)

This song is based on the same kind of structure as it's predecessor 'The Fountain' but with a bit of a different vibe.

Thank you Attie Basson for playing bass and singing harmonies on this track

Lyrics:

The Fountain Part 2

There is a place where we can go
With streets of diamonds and fields of gold
But it’s not a place where love exists
No peace of mind and no happiness 

I wanna go to the edge of the earth and I hope
I’ll see you there, I’ll see you there
I wanna go where no man has gone before
I’ll take you there, I’ll take you there

We’re not alone, these chemicals turned us to stone
And all we know just blows away, it blows away in the wind
The fire burns, it burns my skin so let me in
But then you left me outside as you hide from the flames

I wanna go to the edge of the earth and I hope
I’ll see you there, I’ll see you there
I wanna go where no man has gone before
I’ll take you there, I’ll take you there
How does it feel to break the promise you made
You lie to yourself
I know I know it’s not the truth, it’s not the truth
The truth will find you
How does it feel to fake the faces you make
You lie to yourself
I know I know it’s not you, it’s not you
The truth will find you (x2)

The Fountain Part 2

Lyrics:

Open Water

I hear the open water calling to me
I think I’ve had enough of this society
Don’t let fear run through you, run through your heart
You gotta leave this world behind you as you find a new start

The open sea is all I need
No one to tell me where to go or who to be
So here I go, floating away
Floating away in search of better days

Look outside your window, can you believe
People keep on telling you that you are free
But is it really freedom when you have to pay
It seems you’ve payed your whole damn life away

The open sea is all I need
No one to tell me where to go or who to be
So here I go, floating away
Floating away in search of better days

Now the ocean starts to shake
I’m awake enough to notice that this is the end
Now the earth starts to move
I will lose my mind if I stay, if I stay here

I feel the Isolation run through my mind
As I watch the water start to crawl inside
This ship is sinking, don’t know what to do
I close my eyes and start to think of you

The open sea is all I need
No one to tell me where to go or who to be
So here I go, floating away
Floating away in search of better days



Open Water

Here is an Afrikaans song I wrote about reuniting with an old friend

Credits:

Lyrics:

Hier is jy nou, maar hoekom lyk jy so maer?
Het jy vergeet om na jouself te kyk my vriend?
Hier is ek nou, maar hoekom word ek so kwaad?
Ek het vergeet om na my siel te kyk my vriend.

Ek het jou jare laas gesien.
Wat maak jy nou?
Het jy 'n vrou en twee kinders?
Of het jy jouself gaan soek in die woud?
of op 'n koue berg in die nag?

Dink net, daar is geen tyd nie
Ons is verewig in die oomblik
Dink net, ons was nooit vry nie
Ons brand verewig in die sonlig

Dink jy ooit terug en wonder
hoe ons verander met elke oomblik?
En waar sou ons wees as ons sonder
al hierdie wonde probeer lewe?

Dink net, daar is geen tyd nie
Ons is verewig in die oomblik
Dink net, ons was nooit vry nie
Ons veg verewig in die oorlog


My Vriend

Sad Dwarf

I haven't made music in a while. I'm rusty. Give me a few days.

I've become very sick. Flu or something.

I spent about 1 and a half hours deliriously trying to finish this song. Would be a bummer if I would've bailed on day 3 already, even if I'm ill, haha.
