All I Wanna Do Is Die

Gloomy Lullaby. I started calmly and ended up with a song in a scary horror movie style. I hope you like the mood.

There's 25 Country song titles (or heavy references to the title) buried in the lyrics. How many can you spot?

When Country Was Country (Original Song) (Rough Demo-Guitar/Bass/Vocal)

Sitting Waiting
Face into the sun
Starring through the sky so blue
She starts to wonder
Can we come together
Into something new
Something true

Tell us lies
To keep us polarized
And we move more and more apart
We just go on living
Push the button
Feed the green
We are obscene

I will testify
I've seen the proof
Time to reconcile
For you it's time to choose
For her we have to choose

Rich get richer
Leave the rest behind
Politicians lead the show
Backroom handshakes
Impending head fakes
It has to go
Just say no

Bought and sold to the highest bid
America has lost her glow
We must come together
Hand in hand as we go
The way we know

I will testify
I've seen the proof
Time to reconcile
For you it's time to choose
For her we have to choose

Come together
Love your brother
We have to choose
We have to choose

I will testify
I've seen the proof
Time to reconcile
For you it's time to choose
For her we have to choose

Come together
Love your brother
We have to choose

Come together
Love your brother
We have to choose
We have to choose
We have to choose

Time to Choose

My lyrics and a long prompt got 30 seconds from Udio, adding 4 more sections and pruning them down to what I was looking for. My first collaboration with an AI is quite professional sounding stuff that I could not have played or sung this well. I think this is a song that I made since I wrote the lyrics and the long prompt and made many desicions all the way from the start to the finished song. This will probably become the most used way to make nice shiny tracks for mass consumption next year, but I think that handmade music will be made because it is nice to do and the machine is a ...machine. ... maybe... but there is still time to dream!

I'm very happy to share with you my very first attempt at songwriting! 🤩 I hope this song touches your hearts, even a tiny bit. This song wouldn’t have been possible without the beautiful guitar tune that Counterworlds Voltage kindly let me sing over.

I was in the dark
when I first found you, my love
I never thought that a star
would ever notice my soul
But you were always around  
just never thought it was me
that you were looking for
longing for

Give me a sign
and I will open my heart
so you can sleep inside
See it's made for you
find myself in you
I'll lose myself in you

Was staring the sea
when I felt wind on my face
One foot was soaked, can you see?
The other holding my pace
Rested my hands on your head
to heal the air that you breathe
Just lose yourself in me
Find yourself in me

Give me a sign
and I will travel the worlds
with nothing but my voice
As if it’s not my choice
not my choice

Let go of your fear
and feel my sound caress you
as if it’s not your choice
Leave behind the noise
Leave behind the noise

Where To Find You

October Wind

When I was in infant school my class was a ragbag bunch of scruffy working class urchins, self included.  National health glasses held together with band aids, hand-me-down clothes, bruises, jam sandwiches.  There was a kid in that class who was very quiet, often absent.  Good at reading.  Good at running.  Kept himself to himself.  Sat at the back, never made eye contact.  Never put his hand up.

Turns out he was very deaf and spending a lot of time in hospital with operations of various sorts.

When he was seven he was given a hearing aid - huge thing the size of a transistor radio that sat in his shirt pocket.  The story I heard was that when he first went home with it his mam took him for a walk down a country lane to try it out.  He was very upset that it was obviously broken - all sorts of odd scratching and buzzing noises.

They eventually realised that he was hearing insects for the first time.  

Imagine that.

Often wonder what became of him.

A Good Boy

A symphony of crushing silence 
Played his timpani of weathered clay
Under lowered eyes that cried defiance
He’d softly make his quiet way
A guiding star that burned with life, but ever failed to shine
Kept his distance, from afar, no avatar to hide behind
He’s a good boy, so they say, in their condescending, pitied way.

Inputs built of aural mud are clinically desensitised
Muffled whispers trundle under cobbled skies of grizzled grey
Dreams and aspirations that never could be realised
He’d tightly close his eyes and lightly kneel to pray
Social cripple loner ‘neath a joker’s plastic smiles
Silent rippled mannequin, cartoon audio spastic child
He’s a good boy, so they say, in their well meaning, hurtful way.

Flip the switch and hear the light
Bear witness to the revelation
A trip to day-sound from his silent night
Demolishing all his expectations
Sweet blushing kiss of angels’ eyes
One of them has turned the volume dial
To flush his muted domicile
And hear the crickets singing on the chamomile

So cast the light fine, on the deafened child’s mind
And let the sound shine as the clearest of days
A new world’s flight is leaving dark behind
Clarity rebound leads the way
Breathe the noise, of those blissful waves
Touch the sense as darkness fades
He’s a good boy,…..he’s a good boy…..

So swing the arc’s beam, bless the lonesome soul
Illumination wakes the inner self
Warmth of seemliness melts the cold
Communication taken off the shelf
Breathe the noise, of those blissful waves
Touch the sense as darkness fades
He’s a good boy,…..he’s a good boy …. He’s a good boy now.

A new composition............

Lyrics:  

In the quiet echoes of a fading dawn
Once we danced beneath the stars
The civilization that once was
Had its chance and soon will fall


The rivers run heavy with lies
A never-ending stream of deceit
Ugliness and greed with a sinister grin
Words of kindness are buried alive


Isn’t it a pity the smallness they hold
Their hearts and minds are so cold 
Lost in the darkness of their souls
The darkness of shadows is upon them


The streets are weeping with tears
Compassion forgotten in this modern-day hell
They search for redemption in the ashes of time
But the clock just keeps on ticking


They lament for the love that once was
In the reign of chaos, they feel lost
Isn’t it a pity that humans can be so cold
The kindness of souls turned bitter and old

Hello dear friends
my wonderful 10-years-old granddaughter is a mighty skilled rider.
She rides like a princess.
She inspired me to make this little song/fairy tale.

Lyrics in English

The Girl on the Horse

The silence is broken when she is riding in
on her black and white horse
and the hooves are clapping on the streets of stone
She is riding fast as a hurricane and her hair
is billowing with the wind


They are both very excited about the speed they now have reached
when they fly through the town
they are cheering and they are clapping their hands and hooves
She is riding fast as a hurricane and her hair
is billowing with the wind


The dust is smoking and the people move aside
they don’t want to get hurt
they are very impressed by the skill they show
She is riding fast as a hurricane and her hair
is billowing with the wind


Her Grand Dad keeps telling her, please don't fall to the ground   (=me!!)
You might break a lot of bones
but the girl and the horse, they just laugh at him
She is riding fast as a hurricane and her hair
is billowing with the wind


Lyrics in Swedish

Flickan på hästen

Tystnaden bryts när hon rider in
på sin svartvita häst
och hovarna klappar på gatorna av sten
Hon rider fort som en orkan och hennes hår
böljar med vinden


De är båda väldigt exalterade över hastigheten de nu har nått
när de flyger genom staden
de jublar och de klappar händer och hovar
Hon rider fort som en orkan och hennes hår
böljar med vinden


Dammet ryker och människorna flyttar sig åt sidan
de vill inte bli sårade
de är mycket imponerade av den skicklighet de visar
Hon rider fort som en orkan och hennes hår
böljar med vinden


Hennes morfar säger hela tiden till henne, snälla fall inte till marken      (=jag!!)
Du kan krossa många ben
men flickan och hästen, de bara skrattar åt honom
Hon rider fort som en orkan och hennes hår
böljar med vinden
