The Foul Gain

Wendigo Vex

in the Tropic of Cancer

Ride with me to Galveston
with the windows rolled down
Ride with me to Galveston
with the windows rolled down
Ride with me to Galveston
let's leave this town

we are going
we are going to
have families of our own
we all know
we all know it
that this is the last hurrah
we are going 
to have families of our own

ride with me to Galveston
with the windows rolled down
ride with me to Galveston
with the windows rolled down
ride with me to Galveston
let's leave this town

Galveston

You set out long ago, and you’re still enjoying your life.
Your goal is to find the essence within yourself.
There’s always just one goal — to be yourself.
But now’s the time to admit it to yourself, maybe...

...at the end of your journey, you might find a new world, one that could be better.
Maybe...
...at the end of your journey, among the stars, a small treasure awaits your discovery.
Maybe...
...but at the end of your journey, what will you do when you’ve lost yourself in your goals?
Sitting back in an armchair, you slowly count the passing minutes.

You’ve been traveling for so long, and you still love your life.
Your goal is to find the lights of the world.
There’s always one goal — to be selfish, too.
But now’s the time to learn the secret, maybe...

...at the end of your journey, you might find a small house where you’ll be at peace.
Maybe...
...at the end of your journey, you’ll buy all the secret objects of your desires.
Maybe...
...but at the end of your journey, what will you do when your dreams are gone?
Sitting in an armchair, you just count the years.

There’s always one goal — to be moral.
But now’s the time to confess the secret, maybe...

...at the end of your journey, you might find a torn flag to pick up.
Maybe...
...at the end of your journey, standing in the fire, you might save your small world.
Maybe...
...but at the end of your journey, what will you do when you no longer believe in principles?
Dreaming in your armchair, you’ll finally glimpse the lights.

...

Elindultál, már réges-régen, és úgy élvezed az életed,
Célod az, hogy megtaláld majd önmagadban a lényeget.
Mindig egy a cél, hogy önmagad legyél,
De itt az alkalom, hogy magad bevallhatod, talán...

...utad végén megtalálhatsz egy új világot, mi jobb lehet.
Talán...
...utad végén a csillagok közt egy apró kincset, hogy felfedezz.
Talán...
...utad végén, mit csinálsz majd, ha céljaidban már elveszel,
egy karosszékben hátra dőlve számolgatod lassan a perceket!

Úton vagy már olyan régen, és még mindig szereted az életed,
Célod az, hogy megtaláld majd a nagyvilágban a fényeket.
Mindig egy a cél, hogy önző is legyél,
De itt az alkalom, hogy a titkot megtudhatod, talán...

...utad végén megtalálhatsz egy apró házat, hol jól leszel.
Talán...
...utad végén vágyaidnak titkos tárgyát mind megveszed.
Talán...
...,de utad végén, mit csinálsz majd, ha álmaid többé nem leled.
egy karosszékben üldögélve számolgatod csak az éveket!

Mindig egy a cél, hogy erkölcsös legyél,
De itt az alkalom, hogy a titkot megvallhatod, talán...

...utad végén megtalálhatsz egy tépett zászlót, mit felvehetsz.
Talán...
...utad végén tűzben állva kis világod megmentheted.
Talán...
...,de utad végén, mit csinálsz majd, ha elvekben többé nem hiszel.
egy karosszékben álmodozva megpillantod majd a fényeket!

Utad végén / At the end of your journey

TITLE: EGO WON'T LISTEN
_________________________________________________________________
LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
I could carve it in stone but you'd still deny
Truth's a mirror you refuse to try
Your mind's a fortress with a broken door
Jealousy's the poison you keep asking for

(Chorus)
Ego won't listen
Ego won't fall
You block the echoes
You build the wall
Jealousy burns and ignorance calls
Ego won't listen
That's all
That's all

(Verse 2)
You wear a crown of "I know it best"
But the cracks in your kingdom fail the test
Every word's a weapon
Every glance a game
But deep down
You're scared of the shame

(Chorus)
Ego won't listen
Ego won't fall
You block the echoes
You build the wall
Jealousy burns and ignorance calls
Ego won't listen
That's all
That's all

(Bridge)
Your shadow fights the light
It twists and turns
The truth's a fire but you'll never let it burn
Caught in a loop
Spinning out of control
Your ego's a thief stealing your soul
[Chorus]
Ego won't listen
Ego won't fall
You block the echoes
You build the wall
Jealousy burns and ignorance calls
Ego won't listen
That's all
That's all

You Built The Wall--I Left It All

Ego Won't Listen

with many thanks to Cecilia for her vocals

Hope for Humanity

Music & Lyrics: Eddy Mango

YESTERDAY, SO FAR AWAY

Yesterday, so far away, so far away, yesterday...
Tomorrow, is tomorrow, tomorrow is not today.
Yesterday, nothing can I do about, yesterday...
Today maybe it will be okey.

Good morning to you a happy day,
good morning I sing this serenade.
Good morning feel good I open up,
window starting up a brand-new day.

Don´t forget, don´t forget live today,,,
never stop, don´t give it up.
Yes I say, live today maybe this is your day...
You never know, around the corner,
maybe maybe, you will find the gold.

Mats Demotape

Yesterday, so far away. ( 1994 ) Eddy Mango-Margareta Theorin ( Eddy )

Do It Now - OC - Paploviante & ♤

Here's a very pretty tune that SoundCloud's Swiss bassist, composer and producer extraordinaire Paul Racle created as an open invitation.  I loved what he's done here and jumped in by adding a few synth melody lines over the top to help bring it further to life.  Paul creates and shares so much music here on SC - check out his galleries:

Thanks for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares

Lyrics:

Sitting by the fireplace 
Gazing in each other's eyes 
Sippin on our sparkling grape juice

Your lips say you love me
My eyes say I really care
If someone else entered the room 
We don't know that you're there

You had a little cocktail
Waiting on me 
I think I'll let you feed me a grape or two 
(laugh)

Chours:
We don't need no alcohol
We don't need no drugs at all
We can get high off each other

We don't need no diamond rings
We don't need no blings & Things
God gave us love Fit For A King

So we got 
Fresh love
No additives
We don't need man-made preserves
(repeat)

Everything is natural 
Made from the ground 
Sprinkled with love from above
(repeat)

Repeat chours 3X

Spoken words:
Help us sing it y'all
Sound mighty good y'all yeah
Everybody to my left and to my right
Let me hear you sing
Y'all up there in the balcony
Can't hear you yeah
Yeah put your hands together
Sound mighty good y'all

Everything is natural 
Made from the ground 
Sprinkled with love from above

Natural made from the ground 
Sprinkled with love from above
(repeat 2X)

(Repeat chours to end)

Organic - Paploviante & NayJ.
