There’s  a kind of pain,
You shouldn’t survive 
I search the lines  in your face,
 to see if your  lyin’ 
The words “ it’s  over”   hang in the  air
You can hear a pin drop, 
from way over there
My  heart stops cold ohh no no no 
I can’t breath in here 
 
You said, I held the keys to your heart 
but now you want em back
I guess  10 years down the drain is fine
You just wasted my sweet time 
I could go on and on but, 
You’re already gone, gone. gone, gone gone...  gone 

Heart death by a thousand cuts
That vacant look in your eyes,
cuts like a razor
You say you found another lover  
Like you’re doing me a favor 
What the fuck ?
 
Take my heart to the Undertaker 
Take my heart to the Undertaker
Tell him, send it back to its maker 
I can’t use it here anymore
That’s for sure 

I don’t wanna be 
Livin'   a flat line
I don’t wanna be  
Livin'  it half blind
It’s time 
Take my heart to the Undertaker  
Take my heart to the Undertaker

It’s past midnight when, I pull in the drive 
another 2-shift day, another day survived
My high beams light up the front yard,
Like the 4th of July

My feet stumble as I get out of the car
I look twice, there you are 
Leanin  up against that old oak tree,
that's hardened and hollow, 
 just like me   
You look like a shadow 
of who you used to be
 
now, you’re sayin  you  don’t love her 
 It was all  a big mistake 
Sayin whatever I dish out you'll take 
Sayin you’ll die right here 
If I don’t take you back 
If I had a heart
I'd have a heart attack 
boy,  let me be clear 
You don't have a prayer here
 
I don't have a heart, but
I don’t want to be a  hater,  
but here’s a little advise 
because it's true
There’s no one to blame but you 
You’re a victim of your own devise

I’m  saying this straight, 
from the heart  I don't have
I don’t wanna hear it man, 
I don't give a damn 

TELL IT TO THE UNDERTAKER...
Take your heart to the Undertaker
Take your heart to the Undertaker

I don’t wanna hear it man, 
I don't give a damn

A serene and atmospheric album blending the warmth of American folk with the ethereal textures of ambient music.

Soft Lantern Glow

Velvet Petals crafts a deeply melancholic atmosphere in "Obsidian Sky." Led by expressive acoustic guitar and poignant male vocals, this atmospheric indie folk track delves into themes of absence, fading memories, and the monochrome landscape of loss. Subtle synth pads, bass, and gentle percussion build a haunting, spacious soundscape that perfectly mirrors the lyrical longing. A reflective journey through a colourless world. #AtmosphericIndieFolk #Melancholic #VelvetPetals #ObsidianSky #SingerSongwriter #Slowcore #Acoustic #Longing #Loss

Obsidian Sky

Number One Call

Matching its raw, emotional, indie-pop style with minimal instrumentation, delicate vulnerability, and sassy but heartfelt attitude.

Try a Little Harder

The eruption of consciousness
Is at odds
With the one-way sign
Directing the traffic
Of the mind.
My mind 
Is a fence
And a filter
Keeping me blind
And in a state
Of helter.
While my soul is free
And guiltless
As my heart is in
 a state of stillness
my thinking is directed
to the extension
of my source.
A state of Self.
The grand acceptance of me.
To know 
Is to behold
Free to flow out
And back empathetically.
Lovingly with the ability
To react. 
Past space and time
This union of the divine.
The intrinsic jump
Flowing through
What’s sublime.
My heart is mine.
Mine to see
Mine to be free
Mine to believe
It’s connected through
The atonement from
What created me.
Real power 
Is my true source.
Listen to your truth.
Experience what’s real.
Be still and feel
The truth that seals
The knowledge in our minds.
I am crimson
Connected to the vine.

The Grand Acceptance

We all have moments we want to run, hide, or close the door for good—but sometimes, the bravest thing is choosing to stay. “You Stayed” is an honest anthem for the nights you almost let go and the mornings you found someone still by your side. For everyone who ever doubted they could be loved through the worst and were proven wrong. Thank you for staying, even when I couldn’t.

You Stayed

REMIND ME

Not Too Much
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[instrumental]

Time slowly slips away
It's hard to say where it has gone
You get lost along the way
And one day, it has flown

It is easy to lose track
When you are always on your own
I look up and look around
I find that I am still at home

[bridge]

I never went nowhere
Where I was, was never there
I stayed on my home ground
I never looked and never found

[chorus]
Here I am, on down the road
I slipped away, never in touch
Not too hard, an easy load
That's all I got, not too much

[instrumental]

I made plans and I worked hard
But looking back, what did I do
I made things that had no soul
Not meant to last and always sold

Not real work, just killing time
All that I made, was never mine
Another twist on the same screw
I never thought of something new

[bridge]

I never went nowhere
Where I was, was never there
I stayed on my home ground
I never looked and never found


[chorus]
Here I am, on down the road
I slipped away, never in touch
Not too hard, an easy load
That's all I got, not too much

[instrumental]

[chorus]
Here I am, on down the road
I slipped away, never in touch
Not too hard, an easy load
That's all I got, not too much

not too much

not too much

[outro]



Not Too Much (384)

[Me & Angel Have Combined Songs For Tracks]
(Whispers Of The Pine + Rewritten Time) 

[Verse 1]
I hear the whispers through the pines
Soft as shadows chasing time
The moon is pale and barely speaks
Over rivers low and meek

[Verse 2]
The night hums low, a sacred tune
Bound beneath the breath of June
Each star above, a fading mark
That stitches light into the dark

[Pre-Chorus]
Time unwinds in silent screams
Fractured thoughts and broken beams
The echoes pull, the branches bend
Where does the silence truly end?

[Chorus]
Call me out, then set me free
Through the woods where I should be
Skies collapse and pull me in
I find the place where dreams begin

[Verse 3]
The clock chimes sharp at noon’s descent
A haunting rhythm, cold intent
My mind ticks on — a bomb beneath
Too late to taste a true release

[Verse 4]
Leaves are rustling coded lines
Woven deep in shifting signs
Melodies in winds that stray
Lead me down a lost pathway

[Pre-Chorus]
Time unwinds in silent screams
Fractured thoughts and broken beams
The echoes pull, the branches bend
Where does the silence truly end?

[Chorus]
Call me out, then set me free
Through the woods where I should be
Skies collapse and pull me in
I find the place where dreams begin

[Bridge]
The dawn won’t wait — it slips, it runs
I chase it down, beneath the suns
Each breath I take, a flame, a theft
Through heavy haze, I rise from death

[Verse 5]
Chimes keep spinning through the void
Every sound a ploy deployed
Time clicks softly, then it shouts
Truth reveals what fear leaves out

[Verse 6]
Crimson clocks in shadowed halls
Stretching past our mortal calls
Thoughts dissolve beneath the weight
Time is knocking at the gate

[Pre-Chorus]
Time unwinds in silent screams
Fractured thoughts and broken beams
The echoes pull, the branches bend
Where does the silence truly end?

[Chorus]
Call me out, then set me free
Through the woods where I should be
Skies collapse and pull me in
I find the place where dreams begin

[Final Chorus]
Time is drawing out its thread
Whispers rising from the dead
Blades of thought across the skies
Rewritten truths refuse to die

[Ending]
Salute the hour, salute the chime
There’s no escape from whispered time
Always spinning, sharp and blind
The ticking haunts the back of mind

[end]
(fade out – reversed clock ticks, reverb-soaked ambient pads, final guitar swell like breath into stillness)

Whispers of Time

Our intention with our musical poetry is to discover a rhythm for peace of mind. Stand on your purpose, Live through each day, Rest, Listen and pray. Pray for the meditative rhythm as we work and play.
