TEARS YOU JUST CAN’T CRY words and music by DOUG ROOSSIEN

EV’RY DREAM…you EVER HAD 
WAS REAL, until the Morning 
EV’RY TRUTH, you Ever Learned 
you FORGOT… Behind Closed Eyes 
EV’RY PLAN, you Never Made … ev’ry CHANCE, you MEANT to Take 
Turned to Tears ... TEARS, you Just Can’t …Cry 

All the things, you thought, you wanted 
Back, when this … began 
Choices made, that you can’t change now 
If you could you’d choose again 
You gambled hard, lost on love… sometimes LIFE’S a tragic PLAY 
Turned to Tears ... that just won't go away 
Man, you don’t … know why 

Why you … STARE OUT, through that window 
LIKE … There’s SOMEPLACE… you should go 
And there’s Someone, in that Mirror, … You just don’t know 
You’d be livin’ all … ALONE, but your… REGRET, lives in your SOUL 
And you stopped crying for your freedom long ago 

Tonight, he’s … LYING … there beside you) 
With the … choices … that you made 
You’re holding … Blankets Cold and Lonely 
Hearing words … no longer said 
Till all the … Days seem like forever… and you wish they would just end 
Sleepless nights … too late … to pretend  
That … you don’t … know why 

So, you … STARE OUT, through that window 
LIKE … There’s SOMEPLACE… you (could) should go 
And there’s Someone, in that Mirror, that … You don’t know 
You’d be livin’ all … ALONE, but your… REGRET, lives in your SOUL 
And you stopped crying for your freedom long ago 
You stopped trying for your freedom long ago 

EV’RY DREAM, you EVER HAD 
WAS REAL, until the Morning …… words & Music – Doug Roossien

Old Norse religion was polytheistic, entailing a belief in various gods and goddesses. By the twelfth century Old Norse religion had succumbed to Christianity.

Inside Thrymheim’s walls our forebearers cold bones shelter us from the elements

Forged in strife and molded by frost,
the Jötnar of ice, rime and blistering bite

Our bold voices boom over boreal mountains of old

Freja rules over her heavenly field, Fólkvangr, where she receives half of those who die in battle. The other half go to the god Odin's hall, Valhalla.

The Incremental Moment
By Ricky Wilhelmson

Stay with it!

The Incremental Moment

Blue Dream

■概要(Overview)
時々、命は何度も形を変えて存在し続けるような気がします。
例えばそれは空を飛ぶ鳥かもしれません。

Sometimes it feels like life continues to exist in many different forms.
For example, it may be a bird in flight.

■歌詞
「大丈夫だ」
大丈夫だよ　悲しまないで
振り返ってもいいから
僕がいつも　君のそばに　いるから

風を切るスピードで
この大空を飛ぶ
僕は鳥　見上げてよ
この僕を

上昇気流を　身体に感じ
僕の翼で　どこにでも
君の心を届けてあげる
君の大事なあの人へ

LaLaLa・・・

大丈夫だよ　君は頑張った
顔を上げて　いいんだよ
僕らいつも　正しいばっかり　ではない

どれだけの時間を
飛び続けただろう
僕は鳥　届けたい
今　君に

上昇気流を　覚えているかい？
君と二人で　旅したね
僕はいつでも　見守っている
僕の友達　君の事


寂しい時に　思い出して
空を見上げて　風を感じて

例え身体が　滅んでしまっても
花を咲かせよう　風を吹かせよう

大丈夫だ
大丈夫だ
大丈夫だ
大丈夫だ

■ Lyrics (Google translation)
"It's okay"
It's okay don't be sad
you can look back
It's okay because I'm always by your side

at a speed that cuts through the wind
fly in this sky
I'm a bird, look up
this me

Feel the rising air current in your body
anywhere with my wings
I'll carry your heart
To that person who is important to you

LaLaLa...

it's okay you did your best
It's okay to raise your face
We are not always right

How long have I been flying
I'm a bird I want to deliver to you now

Remember the updraft?
I traveled with you
I'm always watching over you
my friend about you


Remember when you're lonely
Look up at the sky and feel the wind

Even if my body perishes
Let the flowers bloom Let the wind blow

It's okay
It's okay
It's okay
It's okay

SOMEDAY THE WEIGHT OF THIS YEAR ON MY LIFE WILL BE AN ALBUM FULL OF PAIN,... BUT, RIGHT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE I'M CENTRALLY LOCATED IN HELL

1987 WENT TO Nashville for a “short week” Music row to make the big time … wow … nobody listens in lawsuit land in those days. 1988 WENT TO NASHVILLE for 3 days (surely, I would crack this puzzle and become famous …) so many on benches in front of churches. Frustrated, didn’t sing publicly again basically for 25 years. (after all, where would a singer/song writer, make a name for himself in Karaoke land).
2010 discovered open mics (new world begins). WRITING SINCE …a lot! Had someone to produce me in limited acoustic style for a couple years…I think a few were damn good “Fields of Quiet Soil”. Had a lot of offers to write lyrics and/or sing for a lot of other artists here. (but no recording capability …let alone a decent computer for my own. TODAY, THINGS CHANGE …I’m here to make an impact (got 4 new ones under my belt recently) …plus some old ones you will not be disappointed listening to. Welcome old music fans and artists., potential serious collabs.
I’m locked and loaded this time!
