My Lyrics
AI Melody

Grew up in the Military, and we moved a lot.  This was my Dad's advice.
---

Pulling up our roots, we're packing once again,
Saying goodbye to friends, relocating on a whim.
Leaving places with memories in the wind,
A bittersweet farewell to who we leave at the end.

Dad sees my sorrow and pulls me near,
Gives me a hug and speaks into my ear.

He said, “Hear me out, for here’s where we begin.”
"Wherever you are, it's the best place you've ever been.
"Every winding path invites a chance to uncover more,
"Every corner of this world, holds a marvel to explore."

I took Dad’s words to heart and gave it my best try,
Finding beauty in places, though sometimes I’d ask why.
There were moments of struggle, times I felt so alone,
Wishing he were here with the wisdom he’d shown.

When the path grows hard and I feel a strain,
I sense his touch and could hear his words once again.

He said, “Hear me out, for here’s where we begin.”
"Wherever you are, it's the best place you've ever been".
"Every corner of the world, holds a marvel to explore",
"Every winding path, a chance to uncover more."

Though he's no longer with us, his memory is dear,
He left this world too soon, but his words are always near.
I carry him within me, through every step I take,
And now I understand, his wisdom was no mistake.

He said, “Hear me out, for here’s where we begin.”
"Wherever you are, it's the best place you've ever been".
"Every corner of the world, holds a marvel to explore",
"Every winding path, a chance to uncover more."

As I journey through this world, I'm always thanking him.
Because Wherever I am, it's the best place I've ever been

ROCKS

This song came out a collaboration with CTS during FAWM last year. It's a bit heavy rock and a whole lot of funk. I suggest you listen with headphones for the best experience ;)

Lyrics by Andrea Brennan
Music, vocals and production by CTS

Pulsing neon signs
Flashing venom in my eyes
Poison triggers feeding
Euphoric state of mind
Escalating into
A hyperactive high

Chorus
Manic insanity
Roller coaster ride
Manic insanity
Wreaks havoc on my life
Manic insanity
Each peak with such intensity
Surely one will be the death of me

Race the Vegas strip
Stack of hundreds up my sleeve
Double down and hit me
Only losers need to sleep
The devil's come to play
I'm getting in too deep

Chorus
Manic insanity
Roller coaster ride
Manic insanity
Wreaks havoc on my life
Each peak with such intensity
Surely one will be the death of me

Up and down the streets
Searching for some fun  
Hoping my last twenties
Can buy some one-on-one
Honey in her hot pants
Pulls a hit and run

Chorus
Manic insanity
Roller coaster ride
Manic insanity
Wreaks havoc on my life
Each peak with such intensity
Surely one will be the death of me




MANIC INSANITY

My Lyrics
AI Melody
Based on dream
----

Emerald valley, sleeping giants rise
Beneath a canvas of a thousand skies
A starry ring, a cosmic light
My soulstone sings, bathed in the night
 
Volcano's heart, a golden flow
Sapphire rivers, where blue flames glow
One with the mountain, a fiery embrace
Then soaring high, in starry space
 
Scales like sunrise, shimmering bright
The world below, a tiny light
"Home," it whispers, a feeling deep
Falling fast, from skies asleep
 
Volcano's heart, a golden flow
Sapphire rivers, where blue flames glow
One with the mountain, a fiery embrace
Then soaring high, in starry space
 
Eucalyptus tree, a silver gleam
Golden radiance, a waking dream
Enveloped whole, in its mystic light
Then fading fast, into the night

Volcano's heart, a golden flow
Sapphire rivers, where blue flames glow
One with the mountain, a fiery embrace
Then soaring high, in starry space

Awake from the dream, a yearning trace,
A  link to my soul, that distant place.
A journey within, a tug at my heart,
A future beckons, longing to start.

Volcano's Heart

lyrics

Why so afraid, small in faith
Let the dead bury the dead
We grow apart but never forget
The times that we had then
It was spring, we knew everything
Our heads were so big then
Living Colour, 5150
Was the music we had then

Trampolines in barns
Trampolines in barns

We were boys, they were girls
But little was said of them
Tractors and noise, things that were made
All that fades begins again
Looking down from our little perch
All that's seen is future days
If you could see, see me now
Never grew up, those were the days

Trampolines in barns
Trampolines in barns

Trampolines in Barns

I felt the original track needed a seasonal update.

====================================
The eggnog is ready, got a notice on the door
Health department heard about the specimens I store.
Gotta find some wrapping paper, no time for a bow.
These specimens all have to leave, before the authorities show.

Presentable, Questionable
Gotta gift 'em all, that's my objective.
To wrap them well before they start to smell
From my super-duper monster fridge that's custom built

Amy's getting the gorgon, no wiggles for her hair
Tavi gets the vampire bat, got some fangs to spare.
Kraken for Des's collection, with tentacles galore
And for Reya, a zombie, she'll be wanting more!

Presentable, Questionable
Gotta gift 'em all, that's my objective
To wrap them well before they start to smell
From my super-duper monster fridge that's custom built

Thought I'd help everyone out, do a charitable deed
Give these monsters to science, to fulfill their need
But the hospitals all passed, the museums said "no thanks"
Guess they're not quite ready for rotting zombie shanks!

Presentable, Questionable
Gotta gift 'em all, that's my objective
To wrap them well before they start to smell
From my super-duper monster fridge that's custom built

The invitations are sent, with a festive little rhyme
"Surprise holiday party, come have a monstrous time!"
But I didn't mention the gifts, that would just be uncouth
Hope they like their presents, with fangs and claws and tooth!

Presentable, Questionable
Gotta gift 'em all, that's my objective
To wrap them well before they start to smell
From my super-duper monster fridge that's custom built

The Health Department's knocking, thankfully just in time!
My guests have all their gifts and sipping on their wine.
The monster fridge is empty now, its interior pristine.
Inspectors finally leave, making me smile as I start to scheme.

Presents in my Monster Fridge

My Lyrics
AI melody
=======================
Our choices weave a pattern, etched in frost's design, 
Each action holds a consequence, a price we'll pay in time.
We plant our seeds 'neath skies of gray, our motives hid from sight,
But nature's course will have its way, unyielding in its right.
From quiet words to daring deeds, a story in the snow,
The seeds we sow in winter's cold, will surely reap what's sown.

Oh, the winter's harvest will arrive, on winds of bitter chill, 
Some fruits of labor may not survive, from seeds we've sown with ill.
A stark design 'neath skies severe, what we gift is what's received, 
Sow what you Reap, the truth is there, though hope is hard to cede.

With callous hearts, some try to bend, the rules to serve their gain, 
They build their lives on false pretense, and sow their seeds in vain.
But pride will melt like fragile ice, a swift and sharp decline, 
The web they wove with selfish vice, will break and lose its shine.
For every deed, in shade or light, a consequence unfurls, 
Relentless is the winter's bite, as it claims our differing worlds.

Oh, the winter's harvest will arrive, on winds of bitter chill, 
Some fruits of labor may not survive, from seeds we've sown with ill.
A stark design 'neath skies severe, what we gift is what's received, 
Sow what you Reap, the truth is there, though hope is hard to cede.

Don't be a fool, lost in deceit, the frost reveals all true, 
Embrace the truth, though bittersweet, find strength to soldier through.
The seeds of kindness, bravely sown, can weather any storm, 
The love we sow, will keep our spirits warm.

Oh, the winter's harvest will arrive, on winds of bitter chill, 
Some fruits of labor may not survive, from seeds we've sown with ill.
A stark design 'neath skies severe, what we gift is what's received, 
Sow what you Reap, the truth is there, though hope is hard to cede.

Sow what you reap! 
Sow what you reap!
In life's harsh song, it all returns anew, 
So plant with care what you will grow, 
and may your dreams come true

CARAVAN

All these songs are my lyrics.  Melodies by Udio AI.

Most of my songs are about a fictitious world called Eden.  It's similar to this one, but perfect on the surface, and rotten at it's core.

Feel free to ask me question about my process if you're curious, or even about the songs themselves. I also enjoy talking with people and learning about their musical journeys.

It takes me about a week to make a song, even using AI.  Some of the songs are very difficult to craft (like Widow's Dog) and some were easy (like Breakfast with the President).  

Sorry if some of my lyrics are off.  I'm still learning as a lyricist.
