The Universe

The sun shines too bright
the call of shades in forest grows
you can't forget that you came from darkness
you saw too much and it will never let you go.

We were all born through and with pain
and this pain is your closest friend
you are the one with the scars
you are marked by the darkness
and no matter how bright the sun shines
the darkness within you will prevail
forever.

Hopeless Mind

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13PSSbnr0ME

A path unseen, a journey deep
into the darkness, with tears to keep
  
A sense of fear begins to creep
While shadows dance and dreams are asleep

A fragile hope begins to fade
dark forest shows of what you are really made

Of sorrow deep and bitter pain
Lost in the woods again and again

The forest whispers soft and low
A final resting place where I will go

A silent end, a tragic scene
Hanging lifeless what might have been

Pain...anger...hatred...isolation...desperation       

Desperate mind

Summoning of a Massacre is my first full electronic release.

Summoning of a Massacre

Cold stones weep beneath the pines,
Where shadows crawl and moonlight shines.
The forest breathes a quiet dread,
A silent host of whispered dead.


Roots entwine the slumbering bone,
A garden sown with souls unknown.
The earth forgets what lies below,
But a restless wind begins to blow.


A distant owl, a soft and mournful call,
Echoes briefly, then is lost to all.
The forest breathes, a slow and steady sigh,
Beneath the vast and diamond-studded sky.
 

They dream in dirt of sunlit days,
Lost to the fog, in timeless haze.
No tear falls now, no memory bright,
Just hollow quiet, and endless night.
  

Their names are carved on fading gray,
As years like dust are blown away.
The living pass with hurried feet,
Unhearing, the lost heart's final beat.


In this city of the silent stones,
No twisted word is said.
No broken hearts, no fractured bones,
Just peace among the dead.
 
It's better here, beneath the weeds,
Away from all your pain.
No empty smiles, no selfish needs,
Just endless, quiet rain.

The graveyard (city of the silent stones)

Inner winter spreads its hands within me, whispering of way of sorrow,
and covers everything with ice and snow
all is withering, dying, freezing, without vision of tomorrow,
and what once was life friendly, is now gone.

This funeral mind put all the good down
lay it in the coffin and buries it deep in the ground.
Sentenced to the eternal solitude, winter is thy path and doom.
Path of no sunlight, this way of pain and gloom.

Funeral mind

After years of playing the piano, I was on a family bushwalk with a nature guide. When we had tea around the fire, he pulled out his acoustic guitar & we sang songs. That was the final push to get me to learn the six stringed instrument as well, because it was so portable & could be used anywhere with a minimum of fuss. That was a quite a few years ago now, but it has given me another medium to compose on. This tune "Natur" is born out of the noodling I do out on the verandah of my house, then I added all the strings & Rhodes electric piano afterwards, to ramp up the emotion.

Natur

A very cinematic and emotional track featuring piano and lush strings. Perfect for any film or documentary, trailer, opening credits, end credits

This is the beautiful and poignant film that inspired me to write this song. It was like I had Ellen in my head for three days..... https://www.channel4.com/programmes/ellen
Ellen is taken from The Hag and the Whore, the third album from Steph Sweet, singer-songwriter and underground musician and author. Influences of freak-folk, psychedelia and angel-punk and songs about hags and whores, paedophilia, the selfie-generation, a beautiful girl, a break-up, teepees, death and spamsters and wolves. Album art by Skinny Graphix

Ellen.
Ellen, she’s at the changeling age, only fourteen.
Her Mum’s lived inside a bottle, since she had her at fifteen.
There’s drinking ‘round the house most days.
Let the men in. Let the men in.
Her Mum just wants to dance with them.
Her Mum just wants to dance with them.
It’s like they’re factory-farming humans just to boost the GDP.
There’s no way out for the working classes, no jobs and no money.
Ellen’s lonely and she’s hurting, hurting so bad inside her head.
She lashes out at everything.
Ellen wishes she were dead.
She’s difficult and mouthy.
Doesn’t make a good poster-girl for the BBC.
And everybody turns their head.
Ellen is the girl that they don’t want to see.
And everybody turns their head.
They don’t want to see.

He’s older and she thinks she loves him, he gives her tenners, vodka and speed.
A plastic bead of kindness in a vacuum looks like a diamond ring.
Who's going to help Ellen?
Nobody.
Who's going to help Ellen?
Nobody.
There’s a million girls like Ellen in all the big cities.
Too difficult and mouthy to be poster-girls on tv.
It’s like they’re factory farming humans just to boost the GDP.
No vegetables unless they’re frozen, crisp sandwiches for tea.
Ellen’s lonely and she’s hurting, hurting bad inside her head.
She lashes out at everyone.
Ellen wishes she were dead.
Who’s helping Ellen?
Nobody.
Who’s helping Ellen?
Nobody.
Nobody.
Nobody.
