CAN'T GET USED TO LIFE

I close my POTENCIAL BIÓTICO album with this contemporary revival of a philosophical song I wrote 19 years ago when my grandpa died.

Could describe it as a requiem for guitar quartet, 2 voices, rhythmic base & church bell (you may know the piano version at https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/sets/piano-sessions-2012 album).

A mostly slow piece with lotta soul and no artistic ambition (but a little ‘Pros&Cons’ air to the end ;).

Church bell sound built with kind help by https://soundcloud.com/spyro9474

Letra / lyrics:

Miedo al cambio,  /  Fear of the change,
incómodo trabajo;  /  uncomfortable work;
molesto planteamiento:  /  annoying approach:
no me gusta lo inesperado.  /  I don’t like the unexpected.
  
A lo mejor es que no estoy acostumbrado  /  It is probably that I am not used
a ver las cosas cambiadas de sitio.  /  to see the things moved from place.
Ver a la gente irse al otro lado  /  Watching people going to the other side
es duro si piensas que todo  /  is hard if you think that everything
será siempre lo mismo.  /  will be always the same.

Ay, lo mismo ...  /  Ay, the same thing ...
ah, lo mismo ...  /  ah, the same thing ...
ay, lo mismo a mí...  /  ay, the same to me...
  
No he sabido reaccionar,  /  I didn’t know how to react,
atrapado en mi infantil ilusión   /  trapped in my infantile illusion
de que nada cambia,  /  where nothing changes,
ah, tengo que darme cuenta de lo que pasa,  /  ah, I must realize of what happens,
ay, tengo que salir de esta caja.  /  ah, I have to go out of this box.

a lo mejor es que no estoy acostumbrado  /  It is probably that I am not used
a las sorpresas de la vida,  /  to the surprises of life,
a nuevos planes que no había planeado,  /  to new plans I had not planned,
no me acostumbro a considerar  /  I don’t get used to consider
una opción distinta.  /  a different option.

Ay, distinta ...  /  Ay, different ...
ay, distinta ...  /  ay, different ...
ah, distinta a mí,  /  ah, different from me,
a mi pensamiento,   /  from my thought,
a mi forma de ser,   /  from my way of being,
a mi manera de verlo...  /  from the way I see it...

========== Lyrics ==========

Never knew the pain that was in you
Never knew just how you stung
But never felt that the time here was wasted
On our magic rides in the Sun, Oh Yeah

Sending you sweet flowers
That were grown from your seeds

Oh let the love flow freely
As the light increases with the days

Ahhhhhh........Oooooooh

Now I know the things you wanted
And the things you just accept
Even when the love was sinking
You could always count them less, Oh yeah

Sending you sweet flowers
That were grown from your seeds

Never knew the pain that was in you baby, yeah
Never knew just how you stung
But never felt the time here was wasted
On our magic rides in the Sun

Never knew the pain that was in you, baby
Never knew just how you stung
Let the love, let the love, let the love
Flow freely through your door
As the light increases with the days

This is a song I wrote while being inspired by working with Janine https://soundcloud.com/janinelevinson . I was trying to write songs with her vocals in mind, but she always created such nuanced harmonies that often went well beyond my expectations. This is a song I wrote about being stuck at home, and that I shouldn't forget or take for granted its meaning and value. I love writing songs about defining "home", because the perception of it seems to always be in flux. My perception of home was quite different growing up than it is now. Lastly, a home is place everyone deserves. If you have the inclination, I would love to hear what are some of your favorite songs about the meaning of home if you comment of this song. Again, please admire Janine's fine work on this tune.

Lyrics:
Waiting on a train
Won’t go anywhere until I’m home

Mother was alive
Wouldn’t go anywhere until I was home

Brother won’t you sleep 
Sleep so soundly 
When you’re home

Father always said
The bed’s always better when you sleep at home

I know the Way
I know the Way
 To get back home

In the rain
And Through the snow
When in pain
And you can’t seem to grow

Down that road
A whisper in the wind
You’re not as bad
Or a failure where you been
Love is all we got
But sometimes it’s all it takes
Even when you have the shakes. 

In the rain
And Through the snow
When in pain
And you can’t seem to grow

I know the Way
I know the Way
To get back home

Waiting on a train
Won’t go anywhere until I’m home

Mother was alive
Wouldn’t go anywhere until I was home

Brother won’t you sleep 
Sleep so soundly 
When you’re home

Father always said
The bed’s always better when you sleep at home

In the rain
And Through the snow
When in pain
And you can’t seem to grow
In the rain

I know the Way
I know the Way
To get back home

Last Train Home (with Janine Levinson)

Mary , Queen of Scots (8 December 1542 – 8 February 1587), also known as Mary Stuart, queen of Scotland (1542–67) and queen consort of France (1559–60). Her unwise marital and political actions provoked rebellion among the Scottish nobles, forcing her to flee to England, where she was eventually beheaded as a Roman Catholic threat to the English.
The scene to the soundtrack:
In the May sunshine, Mary and her 2nd husband Lord Darnley her cousin went to ride to the Scottish
woodlands.It all seemed like a dream, the wild ride, the strange smells and sounds.
They should have a race. Mary loved to ride and to ride fast. A horn sounded, it notes oddly out of
place where no hunters were.

Lyrics:
Behind the curtain
The world is uncertain

Blind womans blues
Blind womans blues 
Blind womans blues

The instincts take control
Not walking tall but grope
The head between the shoulder 
The dignity will moulder

Blind womans blues
Blind womans blues
Blind womans blues

Aware of danger always
Defensive acting night and day
Depending on assistance
Suffering from distance

Blind womans blues
Blind womans blues
Blind womans blues 
Blind womans blues

The world is pale
Behind the veil
Without communication
There´s just dark isolation

Blind womans blues...



As some of you know I suffered from Cataract a very long time. It rules everything in life to see or to see not. Now I got new lenses implanted and learn to see quite from the beginning. It´s amazing, I am gifted with a new way of life. Time to close that chapter. To finish it, I expressed some of my experiences and suffering in that song. Thanks for listening. Take care on your eyes always :)

Blind Womans Blues

Neli CoKo - Blind Womans Blues

This track is inspired by an old piece from 1982, which we played in my third Band. At that time we were enthusiastic and wanted to make music as a living. But we all ended up somewhere else, only our singer made it, as he joined Pink Cream 69 and later Helloween, where they are playing the big festivals till today :-)
I myself had stopped playing at all, focused on my profession and touched only the acoustic guitar from time to time. My Marshall JCM 800 and my Fender were becoming more and more living room Accessoires and were nicely looking hanging untouched at the wall. In 2015 my son woke up music in me again, when he came to me playing a song he had created with GarageBand on an iPad. Then the guitar flame started to burn again and finally the result you can listen here. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics; Aida Deturck
Verse
They took everything we had Lying to us with false promises just like gods they play and as fools we believed them but in the shadows we can hear your song asking us why are we so shy

Chorus
Rise up your hearts and don’t let them pass No, Don’t look back no time to lose it's bigger than you… No one can do it better, No one can do it better No one can do it better…than you

Verse
For the first time we learn we can’t wait for salvation Get up, carry all your dreams and come no more crying, we’ll fight together, is now or never

Chorus
Rise up your hearts and don’t let them pass No, Don’t look back no time to lose it's bigger than you… No one can do it better No one can do it better No one can do it better…than you

Bridge
We hear your voice, hear your song, feel your love mother nature we are trying to save you

Chorus
Rise up your hearts, can’t let them pass! It’s Show Time! The end is near, we have no fear, no more
Rise up your hearts you shall not pass Anymore Your Lie ends here, we are bigger than you…

Bridge
Ancient spirits told us deserts, seas and mountains rivers, woods and fountains whispering in the wind We are destroying the world.

Thanks for indulging my weird ideas Bitzone, you are the best!

This song is part of an LP of 12 songs that I made with Stricknice, Bitzone, and Wou-Wou & The Wormling (and many other friends who you all know on SoundCloud) from a massive set of demo tracks that Wou-Wou graciously passed on to me. Basically, this LP worth of songs was an early pandemic gift cause I had a little extra time on my hands to make music! I was originally going to release all the songs in one long track but one of my muses kept telling me to release this song on its own and I eventually succumbed to her wishes. I am massively grateful for all the work Stricknice, Bitzone, and Wou-Wou put into this big project. There may be more songs from this project that trickle out before the whole set is released. It was super cool to finally work with Bontender on a song. I have been a big fan of his indie rock sound for a long time. Bonetender rocks!!! 

This song goes out to all the loners, weirdoes, freaks, and geeks out there. Who cares what society wants you to be. Be yourself and you just do you! There are plenty of normal people in the world already.

Lyrics

Watching you out the corner of my eye 
Memorize your schedule to pass by
Feeling your energy get closer to intensify
Don’t think I’m a creep I’m really a nice guy

Why can’t I just walk up and say hi
I’d rather watch you from the wall like a fly

Ghosting out of my Generation 

Watching you out the corner of my eye
Seeing you finally here to pass by
Inhale your scent to remember I retry
Don’t want to think I’m a creep so I lie

Why can’t I just walk up and say hi  
I’d rather stay up against the wall like a fly

Ghosting out of my Generation 

Watching you out the corner of my eye
Waiting all day for you to pass by
Feeling you brush against me I electrify
Don’t think I’m a creep I’m really a nice guy

Why can’t I just walk up and say hi
I’d rather watch you from the wall like a fly

Ghosting out of my Generation

See you same time tomorrow
Goodbye Kelly goodbye Sister J
Oh yes you hide your sorrow well but
No need to tell these kids that god does not appear to care

Oh if he's even there
 
Walked down to old St Martin it's
Dusk already there's cold December rain
In the Piccadilly lights
This place has seen the lost and found for
Seven hundred years
And so they come and pray
Or just to stay out of the rain
 
Oh were there words enough and time I would
Explain the world away and
If life's just a story (maybe) we can change the ending if we try
And though the past's been priced and sold
Tomorrows yet untold
 
Strayed into being happy
Fields of barley framed our stupid bliss
But it was all reflected lights
I never learned how to be kind until I lost someone I loved
But I'm not here to pray
Just trying to stay out of the rain
 
[Repeat chorus]
 
And the words become a song
And the child becomes a man

NEON IN HIS BLOOD (The loneliest boy I ever saw)

With neon in his blood
Neon in his blood

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride
If turnips were watches, I'd wear one by my side
If "ifs" and "ands" were pots and pans
There'd be no work for tinkers’ hands

Neon in his blood

Neon in his blood

The land rolls up and the land rolls down
If Mummy didn't cut the fat off Daddy would eat it
Sometimes the rocks stick out 
But mostly they don’t
The worst part about being old 
Is remembering when you were young 
And we look at the stars 
And we still don’t know what they mean
Except she’s gone so I eat what I like
Pick the goosegrass buttons 
Off the loneliest boy I ever saw

With neon in his blood
Neon in his blood

The loneliest boy I ever saw

With neon in his blood
Neon in his blood
Neon in his blood
