A Long Day

So long, so short
So long, goodnight
So long, so short, so long, good night
So long, so short, so long

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long day
It’s been a long ass day

But that’s not what you leave behind you
What you leave behind
Is so much more
So much love
So much light and…

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long night
Left with memories now 
Of this beautiful life
I’m tired, you’re tired
No more talking
But I don’t mind

A mother, a wife
A friend, a life
A smile so bright
Lift you up
Make you right
In the mourning, in the light
All alone and alive
I’ll keep fighting, stay behind
With you always on my mind

So long, so short
So long, goodnight
So long, so short, so long, good night
So long ,so short, so long

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long day
It’s been a long ass day

But that’s not what you leave behind you
What you leave behind
Is so much more
So much love
So much light and…

It’s been a long day
It’s been a long night
Left with memories now 
Of this beautiful life
I’m tired, you’re tired
No more talking
But I don’t mind

You see I’ve got these friends of mine
And they call all of the time
It doesn’t stop, stop, stop till I’m
Feeling fine, feeling fine

And I don’t envy you or me
Tonight, this time. 
And I don’t envy you or me
What’s it take to have somewhere to be
With open arms and closed fists and 
Open mouths that shout like this

Like this
Shout like this
Shout like this
Shout like this

I’ve got these friends of mine
And they call all of the time
It doesn’t stop, stop, stop till I’m
Feeling fine, feeling fine

If we get loaded
Then we get loaded tonight
And all the time
Sometimes struggles thrive
Takes death to feel alive
Too many choices
Conflicted alibis
This is mundane 
But we get by
Yes the dude abides
It’s time to get 

High
Let’s get high
Let’s get high
Let’s get high

It gets hot now
As if we’re only finding out
But everybody’s still 
Got their heads in the clouds
In the kitchen 
Or driving round the ring
We all join in 
Hear tiny voices sing

Ow wooh!
Ow ah wooh!
Ow ah wooh!
Ow ah wooh!

I am home from the road again
Feels so good in my abode again
Rapture comes and then it goes again
I feel the weight lift of my shoulders and

Like a super power
Hit at the perfect hour
Like a sudden breeze
Release a tight squeeze
And you make me feel 
And you make me feel
And you make me feel 
And you make me feel

And you make me feel

A fire burns deep inside of us
The flames churn the tide in front of us
Fever comes and then it goes again
The waves dissolve into a vapour and

And Though I never do 
What you told me to
I keep connected to it
Just like you taught me to and
And you make me feel 
And you make me feel
And you make me feel 
And you make me feel

Requiem Dance

Verse 1:
Here comes the reading of the last repose
Here comes the feeling that will last with those
Who will take away the better part of me
Who will make the reeling then the harmony

Bridge 1:
White light are you calling me
I need a priest, I need a sign 
Cause Im running outta time
I’ll give my last two cents first
I need to speak and though it hurts
These words are mine, they have some worth

Chorus 1:
If I need ya then I love ya then I hold ya
And there’s nothing left to do, but waiting
If I leave you need remember what I told ya
Then there’s nothing left to do but waiting
Always be kind, tend to body and mind
And in truth you will find your salvation

Verse 2:
Here comes the reading of the eulogy
Here comes the music to accompany
There is a beauty in the mourning style
As the flames burn higher, don’t forget to smile

Bridge 2:
White light are you calling me
I need a priest, I need a line 
Cause Im running outta time
I’ll give my last two cents first
I need to speak and though it hurts
These words are mine, they have some worth

Chorus 2:
If I need ya then I love ya then I hold ya
And there’s nothing left to do, but waiting
If I leave you need remember what I told ya
Then there’s nothing left to do but waiting
Always be kind, tend to body and mind
And in truth you will find your salvation

Refrain:
Requiem dance, dance, dance
Requiem dance, dance, dance
Requiem dance, dance, dance
Requiem dance, dance, dance

Requiem Dance

Lyrics:

Vamping

May you be free from pain and suffering
May you always believe in now
May you be kind and take safe offerings 
It doesn’t really matter how

May you be loved and love back often 
May you run into a crowded house
Leave freely the way that you walked in 
When you feel like getting out

[INSTRUMENTAL]	

May you be free from pain and suffering
May you always have an open door
And when good friends come a knocking
May they always come back for more

May those good friends become old friends 
And be there when you need them most 
Be there to share in happiness 
And when darkness needs a toast

And if your feelings overcome
You just keep leaning into them
It doesn’t really matter now
It didn’t really matter when
You were calling from the light that shone
Remember these feelings will soon be gone

May you be free from pain and suffering
May you listen to these words
May you find someone to confide in
Someone who sees your worth

Someone who is playful 
And cherishes all that’s good
May they love you more than I do
Im not sure that they could

[INSTRUMENTAL]

And if your feelings overcome
You just keep leaning into them
It doesn’t really matter now
It didn’t really matter when
You were calling from the light that shone
Remember these feelings will soon be gone

Deep Cut Thin Lines

Cover Art by DWQ, Image of Apolloniuss Elipse and Evolute courtesy of Robert Jantzen and Frederick Hartmann.

Lyrics:

Intro
Deep cuts thin lines run through
Deep cuts thin lines run through
Deep cuts thin lines run through
Deep cuts thin lines run through

Verse
The mind is powerful
But for the feelings that it craves
The mind's unstoppable
But for the heart’s compulsive ways

If the place you flow, your energy through 
Is the place that you blow your mind
Take a taste from the cup, that replenishes you
All else is a waste of time…

Bridge
I've got this screen you see
It keeps on feeding me
It's like pure nicotine
It keeps me hungry

Chorus

Deep cuts thin lines run through
You better hold on to the lies and the truth
Deep cuts thin lines run through

Deep cuts thin lines run through
You better hold on to the lies and the truth
Some of us spend our lives in a vision
Some of us spin lies for a livin 

Verse
Though the mind it is powerful
There’s this fear sometimes
And it’s unstoppable  
And though the colour may fade from sight
Without the darkness  
There is no light

The place that you flow your energy through
Is the place that you will find
Slower songs than anyone
Deeper cuts and thinner lines… 

Bridge
In this quiet time
You are crying out
You are a friend of mine
But I can't hear you shout

I've got this screen you see
That keeps on feeding me
It's like pure nicotine
It keeps me hungry

Chorus
Deep cut thin lines run through
You better hold on to the lies and the truth
Deep cut thin lines run through

Deep cut thin lines run through
You better hold on to the lies and the truth
Some of us spend our lives in a vision
Some of us spin lies for a livin

Repeat Chorus

Outro, End.

This song is about trying to spend more time on the things and with the people that make you (and them) thrive. Its about the struggles of getting out of habits of inaction, wasting time on the stuff that doesnt matter, instead of spending time engaging in more life enhancing moments. These habits and compulsions to pay attention to the worthless are difficult to shift. They can form deep cut thin lines in our minds that are hard to notice and even more difficult to escape from. The song culminates in an instrumental outro which echoes the positive feeling of breaking free into the 'flow' state and finding yourself thriving on life...kinda the way I felt when I was playing it. I hope you enjoy it.

Deep Cut Thin Lines

Lyrics:

Verse:

It’s feeding time    
So feed them to the lions won’t you. 
Stepped on a landmine
And it’s fizzing on your left boot
This is blissfulness
This is restlessness

Bridge:

Like hallucinogen evokes
Like a Man O’War it floats            
Its still stinging while everybody’s grinning                 

Chorus

They’re jokes
They’re very honest jokes
I lost myself in laughs and then I choked
They’re jokes 
They’re very venomous jokes               
But do the laughs outlast the lump caught in my throat

Post Chorus

Its a cast of many shadows 
Each swim amongst the shallows
And its easy to see	
Now they are coming after me

Verse II

It’s well defined
So blur a line or two
Some kind of pastime
One that plays with you
This is peacefulness
This is recklessness

Bridge II 

Let’s destroy the destroying
Play games without toying
Try stay standing with punchlines landing

Chorus II
They’re jokes
They’re very honest jokes
I lost myself in laughs and then I choked
They’re jokes 
They’re very venomous jokes               
But do the laughs outlast the lump caught in my throat

Postchorus II
Like plasticine it moulds you
Into contortionistic folds to
Float in the sea and		
Get lost in the debris

Bridge III
I am a lion
I am a lion its true
Time after time 
I protect you
I mind my pride 
Like a fool

Instrumental

Chorus III
I mind my pride with these 
Jokes
They’re very honest jokes
I lost myself in laughs and then I choked
They’re jokes 
They’re very venomous jokes               
But do the laughs outlast the lump caught in my throat

Strike

Take care that we don't slip
Let’s try and just slide in
Tonight we hear the strike
before we see the lightning
Take care that we don't slip
Let’s try and just slide in
Tonight we hear the strike
before we see the lightning

Bridge lines that are hiding under
Dark blue light high in the sky tonight
Deep sighs, it's the end of the summer
Still my skins charged and its hardest not to smile

It's been a brain freeze day
gonna spend it in my own free way

We’re lighting camp fires
in the middle of the forest
We’re watching sparks fly
through the chorus
And these hands that surround you...
It can stop a
It can stop a
It can stop a lighting strike

Take care that we don't slip
Lets try and just slide in
Tonight we hear the strike
before we see the lightning
Take care that we don't slip
Lets try and just slide in
Tonight we hear the strike
before we see the lightning

It's been a brain freeze day
gonna spend it in my own free way

We’re lighting camp fires
in the middle of the forest
We're watching sparks fly
through the chorus

Take care that we don't slip
Let’s try and just slide in
Tonight we hear the strike
before we see the lightning
Take care that we don't slip
Let’s try and just slide in
Tonight we hear the strike
before we see the lightning

Lyrics:

What does it take to have somewhere to be
 
We wither and cower 
and give them every hour
What does it take
What does it take

In the heat of the moment 
Aim to the left, aim to the right
These people see me coming
They’re getting ready for the fight
Lay claim to what is day
and what is night
and what is yours 
and what is mine

Thank God we don't have to think
Thank God for AI

Thank God we don't have to think
Thank God for AI

In the heat of the moment 
Aim to the left, aim to the right
These people see me coming
They’re getting ready for the fight
Lay claim to what is day
and what is night
and what is yours 
and what is mine

Thank God we don't have to think
Thank God for AI

What does it take
What does it take

We wither, uncover
and comfort one another
While they make money from nothin
Make peace with me my brother

I don't have the right mind
But it's about time
I told you bout my one crime 
In my primetime
It was nothing like the blood call 
In the moonlight
Everywhere's a downtown
Where we’re all found out

Cower

Lyrics:

We are we are
We are just sculptures
We see we see
We see how you sculpt us

What do you see 
Whenever you sculpt us
Well it isn't me
I ain't not sculpture

I've been asked to intervene
I've been asked to call you out
I'm gonna have to open extreme
I'm gonna have to scream and shout

We are we are 
We are our history
We see we see we see
We see what you quarry

What do you find 
Whenever you mine us
Our footprints align
You know they define us

I've been asked to intervene
I've been asked to call you out
I'm gonna have to open extreme
I'm gonna have to scream and shout

Take your sadness
Take your pain
Wrap it up in all this madness
Turn it into something we gain

I've been asked to intervene
I've been asked to call you out
I'm gonna have to open extreme
I'm gonna have to scream and shout

Sculptures

Lyrics:

I'm rubbing salt in the wounds
Of ready salty moods
You're doin my head in
It's festering and stewing
Can you please talk without chewing
We're covered in Salt
We're covered in Salt
We're covered in Salt

Salt, salt
Is all that there is
If it hurts sometimes
It's worth it for just one little kiss

Salt, salt
Is all that exists
Seasoning
To make it taste even more exquisite

I go up to my room
Decompress with some choones
Pushing all your buttons
Is making me rotten
Now I'm kicking off my old boots
They're covered in salt
They're covered in salt
They're covered in salt

Salt, salt
Is all that there is
If it hurts sometimes
It's worth it for just one little kiss

Salt, salt
Is all that exists
Seasoning
To make it taste even more exquisite

Old arguments need drafting (and redrafting)
Gonna ignore you half the afternoon (and morning)
And I'm pouring salt before asking (without tasting)
I'd apologise but it's way too soon

And we're covered in 
Salt, salt
Is all that there is
If it hurts sometimes
It's worth it for just one little kiss

Salt, salt
Is all that exists
Seasoning
To make it taste even more exquisite

Salt, Salt, Salt. 

And you shimmer 
While you shine
It's a killer
Every time

And you shiver 
While you shake 
And you pour
Some salt to taste

Don't believe in what it feels to be 
What it feels to be without you
Don't believe in what it feels to be
What it feels to be without you
Don't believe in what it feels to be
What it feels to be without you
