fantastic -love it -I would love to sing along with you

Feels like today the sky's the limit.  Things are getting better by the minute.  If I was an emoji I'd be a smiley face.

Things Are Looking Up

Part 4 of my "All Hope Is Lost" mini track series.
The world is broken and all hope is lost but still the nomad wanders, into territories unknown he escaped but not without sin, now longing and searching for salvation...

Salvation

The Forgotten

A song about a guy I know

lyrics:

The biggest and baddest of the scumbag namesake
He’s snorting tons of crack cocaine that is probably fake
A wife beater bullet proof vest to protect his fragile pride
A class act hell bent on suicide 

Cocaine  Charlie smokin’ way too much
Cocaine  Charlie stone cold to the touch
Always holding a grudge
Trying to play executioner, jury and judge

Pot’s for losers and meth’s for junkies, so coke’s just right for him
Walk on down his alley way and he’ll tear you limb from limb
There is no one that can stop him except his kryptonite
Marijuana Jonny’s down for the fight

Cocaine Charlie just wants to unwind
Cocaine Charlie sneakin’ up from behind
You’ve got no place to hide
Manning the front to protect his Frankenstein Bride

I wonder how he pays the rent
Cocaine Charlie’s at it again
You know it’s not an accident
That his nose has a huge dent

The only saving grace is his Dad’s inheritance 
You’ll see him on the street trying to trade it in for friends
But there will be no friends to hang out with this time
Cocaine Charlie’s crossed the line

Cocaine Charlie slammin’ lines and beer
Cocaine Charlie thinks that you’re a queer
Don’t you interfere
He’ll beat you with a tire iron if you get near

Cocaine Charlie watching 2 girls 1 cup
Cocaine Charlie can’t get his dick up
Don’t you interrupt
Jerking his thing and he’s just about to erupt

Cocaine Charlie withering to the bone
Cocaine Charlie needs another drug lone
Cocaine Charlie, get the fuck off of this street

Cocaine Charlie

[DAN]
Another late night
Another early morning
I’m running out of wick
One more thing?
Sure I can do it!
As long as we make it very very quick

[Chorus] 
Why do I always overcommit?
(Why why why…)
Why can’t I get these pieces to fit?
(Why why why…)
Why don’t I ever know when to quit?
(Why why why…)
Why why why
Why why why…

[HANNAH]
I’ll work all night
‘Til the morning light
Just need a little shuteye
I ask when we’ll ever
Get us some sleep
You say we only sleep when we die

[Chorus]

[SONYA]
I’ll get on a plane
Go anywhere you want me
All you got to do is ask
No job too big
No job too little
I’ll commit to doing almost any ol’ task

[Chorus]

[DAVID]
Too much on my plate
Forgot to eat today
Maybe we should reassess?
Sign me up for another!
No rest for the wicked!
I feel like a man, a man possessed 

[Chorus] 

[DAN]
8, 9, 10, 11, midnight (8, 9, 10, 11, midnight)
1-2-3am (1-2-3am)
I’m still feeling alright
I don’t mind late nights
But the alarm clock, I dread… 
I feel like the walking dead… 
Every morning at 6am… 

[Outro]
Why do we always overcommit?
(Why why why…)
Why do we always overcommit?
(Why why why…)

Darkened

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 :)

'Bodies Swaying'

Smooth, Into the groove…
Step by step That is a romance Meet me on that spot tonight Tune by tune That is a romance Hoof by hoof That is the moon dance
Sometimes it’s one ahead and then three to back Then swinging round and returning on another track
And ancient lanters wander across the sky again Singing old songs in a language we’ll never understand And they go…
Meet me under the moon tonight  Let us dance into the morning light I promise I will not step on your toes just swaying bodies in the silver light
Smooth,  Waving in the silver groove
Sometimes it’s one ahead and then three to back then swinging round and returning on another track Into the distance and then out of mind Then slinging round and appearing on the other side
While our bodies swaying to the music And they go…
Meet me under the moon tonight  Let us dance into the morning light Oh, bodies swaying to the music Our bodies swaying to the music
