Lyrics

Even Fail
By Ed Bejzak and David Husted

V1
Wave sharpens
As it readies to pound
Under ocean canopy
Once again smooth
A tired refrain

Ch      
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    

PreVs
V2
Crackle of fire
drizzle of rain 
cold and distant thunder
Now silence
Again and again and again

Ch2
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    

V3
Falling, floating
Air rushes past
Sensation unfamiliar 
All stop 
Never and ever again  
Ch2
You can jump
I'll be there
I will be your safety net
You can jump
Even fail    
Outro
Even Fail

Even Fail

The Treehouse

Fighting with yourself
Your chaos is held
Face with open eyes
Look towards the light

This path I chose 

I am ok
With your crazy
If you’re ok
With my own ways

To figure you out
Yeah it makes us shout
Truth behind the lie
We can fix your mind

This path I chose 

I am ok
With your crazy
If you’re ok
With my own ways

Bolton born and bread
Kind and fucked in the head
Embrace heart and mind
That’s why we unite

This path I chose 

I am ok
With your crazy
If you’re ok
With my own ways

“Skyler-Laura”  by Luke

Music, Rhythm Guitar, Bass, Drums: Manuel

When Manuel sent me a guitar track over a year ago I fairly quickly decided to write an epilogue for Major Tom. Little did I know that I would end up taking a longish break from writing music. With infinite patience Manuel waited for me until now and to my even greater surprise this retro lyric has become almost current with the two NASA astronauts in space waiting for their return trip to Earth.

SEND ME A ROCKET
(MAJOR TOM THE EPILOGUE)

I can’t hear you 
Still I can see you
A cloudy ball in space
Nothing to keep it in place
This is my beautiful view
Nothing can make things right
I’m stuck here 
A deep longing
Hard to accept this 
This can’t be
This can’t be
My final fate

It’s been so long
It feels like you forgot me
Nobody cares about the shirts I wear 
Did you move onto something new
Cause I’m still looking at you
I’m still waiting for you

Send me some hope
Send me a rocket
Show me that you care
Send me some hope
Show me that you love me

You forgot so soon
It hurts all the time
You forgot I was a shining star
You wouldn't write enough about me
Oh, oh, I’m so sad

Send me some hope
Send me a rocket
Show me that you care
Send me some hope
Lighten your pocket
Show me that you love me
Send me some hope
Some hope

I can’t let go
I dream all the time
I wanna feel the sun and wind
I wanna go home

Stuck in my tin can
With no way out, out
Shiny and bright
Can you hear me shout, shout
I’m stuck here 
A deep longing
Hard to accept this 
Oh no, oh no
I want to go
Want to go
Want to go 
Want to go home
Go home
This can’t be
This can’t be

Send Me A Rocket

Send Me A Rocket | Major Tom The Epilogue

Run
(Strophe 1)  
I see the shadows in your eyes,  
A fire burning deep inside,  
You think you know, but you don’t see,  
The darker side that lives in me.

(Chorus)  
Run, run, while you can,  
I’m the danger you can’t understand.  
Run, run, don’t you see,  
You’ll be lost if you follow me.  
I’m the storm behind the calm,  
The poison kiss, the hidden harm,  
So run, run, while you can,  
Or you’ll fall right into my hands.

(Strophe 2)  
I wear my smile like a disguise,  
But there’s a darkness in my lies,  
You’re drawn to me like a moth to flame,  
But play with fire, you’ll burn in shame.

(Chorus)  
Run, run, while you can,  
I’m the danger you can’t understand.  
Run, run, don’t you see,  
You’ll be lost if you follow me.  
I’m the storm behind the calm,  
The poison kiss, the hidden harm,  
So run, run, while you can,  
Or you’ll fall right into my hands.

(Bridge)  
The moon is high, the night is cold,  
But in my arms, your fate’s foretold.  
You’ll lose yourself in my embrace,  
But lose your soul in this deadly chase.

(Chorus)  
Run, run, while you can,  
I’m the danger you can’t understand.  
Run, run, don’t you see,  
You’ll be lost if you follow me.  
I’m the storm behind the calm,  
The poison kiss, the hidden harm,  
So run, run, while you can,  
Or you’ll fall right into my hands.

(Outro)  
Run… run…  
While you still can.

Hope is in the air — a wind that is fierce enough to lift kites and rattle wind chimes, but gentle enough to free specks caught in a spider’s web. To become windswept is to go with the flow, keeping faith in a good future, and to do what you know to do to make hope come alive.

Windswept

I was really impressed by the novel The Paul Street Boys,  what hit me is the profound sense of duty and sacrifice by Nemecsek a boy who apparently  seems to be weak and not reliable to contribute to win a battle, and despite the battle victory everyone lose. I have tried to imagine the feeling of Nemecsek and his fighting against disease  together with the strong will to win and redeem the "Fatherland". It points out important moral issue about futility of war.
Originally released and written in 2010.

Nemecsek

"There is initiative required to pursue a relationship with a woman or a musical instrument; how often they are alike in their demands ... Ultimately, we are destined for forced labor where no thinking is required" (words of David Dunham, taken by his comment here below). Is artistic imagination destined to disappear, and will humanity indulge in total creative laziness (in music, art, literature), delegating to artificial intelligence the fulfilment of needs that have contributed to human progress? 

Lyrics: Mick Hansan
Music: AI

When I started going to school
I wondered why it was necessary to waste my time
days locked in a classroom listening to
of history mathematics physics, it was a crime

Then I finally got my high school diploma
I got the most with the least effort
I cheated the teachers with great serenity
luckily I wasn't forced to enrol at university

Of course, it was time to work
I didn't know how to do anything.
I worked at McDonald's, at Amazon, at Burger King
It takes a lot of talent to have no skill
It takes a lot of talent to have no skill
never having anything to will

I got married to a good woman
all house, church, shopping, baloney
Being from a good family
there was no shortage of money

We didn't have children, I didn't want them
It would have been too much work to bring them up
Besides, she chose in her spare time finally
working for free as a baby sitter in other families

I kept on doing my daily job
I didn't know how to do anything.
I worked at McDonald's, at Amazon, at Burger King
It takes a lot of talent to have no skill
It takes a lot of talent to have no skill
never having anything to will

One day my wife asked me for a divorce
I'm sure she didn't have another man
All she said to me was: ‘I'm not your watchman
and it's time to take an holiday from you.
A very long holiday: until I die, or you’

Deep down I didn't even mind
it was better to have an empty house
where I could safely indulge in idleness
without anyone pointing it out to me
renouncing any form of activeness

On the other hand I kept working
even though I didn't know how to do anything.
I worked at McDonald's, at Amazon, at Burger King
It takes a lot of talent to have no skill
It takes a lot of talent to have no skill
never having anything to will

One day I thought: why not learn to play the piano?
It takes time and effort, maybe is better the ping pong
The guitar? And to do what, 
sing a Frank Sinatra's old and awful song?

But a night while yawning I'm surfing the net
I read about these new programmes, I read about AI
they say that this is quite a little something
without be a hard set
what a beautiful perspective, so eye-catching!
you could write songs 
without even knowing how to do it
make everyone listen to all them 
while you sit in your armchair

That was it, now I ride the wave
I signed up on different platforms
I don't have to use my name
I'm me but I'm not me

I produce several songs a day
have thousands of followers 
they are the flies, 
and I am the spider

I can't play anything
I can't sing
I have not to write what I think
but I became a successful songwriter

they are the flies, and I am the spider
I can't play anything
I can't sing
I have not to write what I think
but I'm a successful songwriter
they are the flies, and I am the spider

And if my wife had not already 
asked for and obtained the divorce
I would have done it by now
