Ambiguous

On a park bench sat an old man all alone
Working the daily Sudoku
I didn’t really want to bother him
I asked if I could sit and rest a minute or two

He said life’s not so simple lad
Even with the modern advances we have made
They only seem to make you lazy and dumb
The young they will not work, yet they still want paid

With a nod of my head, I was on my way
Thinking of the things this old man had to say
It’s probably something that the generations voice
Was he speaking truth or only making noise?

Do we make life difficult in the choices that we make?
Or are our journeys left to chance?
Either way it’s not so simple what we choose
We still keep going forward; to the music we dance

Instrumental Bridge

My thinking soon got the best of me
I went back to the bench but the old man was gone
He left his paper and the puzzle on the bench
I could see that every space he filled was completely wrong

It’s not so simple running the rat’s race
It’s not so simple, looking through the wall
Does it really matter if the old man’s right or wrong?
We’ll settle in our old pine box and in the ground we fall

Not So Simple

Peace Message

At a Dead Party

the waves are fallin' over my head
the waves are crashin' over my head
you pull yourself up by the bootstraps
'n collect
take inventory of
what remains

the waves are crashin' over my head
yeah, how I even got out of bed

it's funny how time can cure your deepest ills
it's funny how denial can keep you well

the waves are crashin' over my head
the whitewater leaves you spinnin' down

Belle on flute :)

Small Song

EXIT

Music : Janne Hennie & PJ Project
Vocals & lyrics : Janne Hennie

I always felt alone
Had no one to lean on
There was heavy clouds over me..
I was let down as a child
And lost all trust in people
Had to find my own way to survive..
I was so afraid of being let down again
Of those who said they loved me
And said they were my friend..

So I built a wall
I built a solid wall
My own place where I could feel safe..
No one got through there
No one could sense my fear
No one could hurt me
I could hide behind my wall..

Then you came
And everything changed
You broke through my wall
Made sure I didn't fall..
I felt I could trust you
when you said you loved me
I felt safe when you said you were my friend..
You wiped all my tears..
I could share all my secrets
You held me close
And chased away all my fears..

I had built a wall
I had built a solid wall
My own place
where I could feel safe..
But you got through there
You could sense my fear
But you didn't hurt me
I didn't have to hide anymore...

Behind My Wall W/ Janne Hennie

The End of Neon-City (v.0.9)

Cast of Characters:
Steve's Planet-- @steve-vervaet —Steve—acoustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, composition/arrangement
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–electric guitar, production, and mix
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—organ and piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and rhythm guitar
cgmaness-- @user-419254289-15129531 – Chris -- electric guitar
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–electric guitar 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – five string fretless bass 
This song was written by Steve on the acoustic guitar. He passed it along to Ken, who added a sturdy rhythm acoustic guitar, as well as his always solid, dynamic drums to it. In short order, Ken got the rest of the Eclectic Collective together on it, starting with Josh, who added his five string fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. Next up was JJ, who's keys, both organ and piano, can be heard livening the whole thing up. Then came Tez with his fiery ripping guitar fills. 
  We were all blown away, though, when Stephen added his equally ripping guitar fills as responses to Tez's parts. It really sounds like the two maestros are having a conversation. Not to be outdone, Chris sprinkled some of his magical guitar to fill in the spaces, mostly at the beginning. 
  Of course, we needed a competent producer to pull the whole thing together for us, especially with all the different voices in the stew. That person was Stephen, who was able to wrangle all of us and make it sound coherent, like the expert producer he is. 
  We all really enjoy working on Steve's songs, although it's been a few months since we did one together.  It's been proven many times before that if,you start out with something good, and you end up with some thing great. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Original lyrics by Steve Vervaet:
I hope we ever meet x2
I hope to see you again
I hope to see you smile
I hope to be your friend x2
Hand in hand, hand in hand
Once again x3
I hope you shake my hand
On the boulevard
Gazing at the stars, gazing at the stars
I hope you ever be, a part of family
A comfort zone for me x2
To be around in everything I found
Please, please love me, forever being around
Hope you ever be, a part of me
Hope to touch your eyes, I hope to touch your love
One day you’ll see that you belong with me
