210817 Burr In The Bonnet - Rabbit Run

This is one of my new tracks.  I am making music at a different tempo than I usually do.  Using Dub-step style drums, while trying to keep my same Electro sound.  This is alot darker than what I usually create.

Rip It Up

A song I wrote for my mom who passed away last year.

Gail's Waltz

A new mix...tell me how you like it, what's missing?

We all walked to the foot of the cliff
Stood in its shade in morning light
The sea was wrinkled and clouds were swift
The air was cool, the sun was bright

I said to Jane are you happy now?
She said you never can be sure
The matchstick boy knelt down by a pool
& glowered up at me with a look so pure

Then a cloud took me away
Don’t know how it happened but the next I saw
They were small down on the bay
I was floating high above them all

Watched them suddenly start to move
Crowd around someone lying there
I couldn’t tell exactly who it was
From where I floated I didn’t care

I kept on rising into the sun
Silent voices in my ears
Some of them calm saying don’t be afraid
Some of them sudden and quick with fear

A cloud took me away
Like a gentle hand on my brow
Into the brilliance of the day
It was all familiar somehow

A cloud took me away
To a shining temple in the air
Into the brilliance of the day
To a quiet place somewhere

 A straight-forward "if-only" song... to hum while spinning on your bicycle.

Dare to be free

Well I've walked the planet's highways
And I've sailed her airs and seas
Certain that a change was bound to come
But never did I dream 
That I would find this place of change
In the country I first traveled from

Now politicians round the world
They labor for a change 
Mothers children soldier out to die
And kings of tiny kingdoms
Labor for a change in vain
For the reins of power
Not within their lie

But those who see the diamond light
As shining in their eyes
Those who see the changes yet to come
They labor in the fields alone
Their soul created ties
While the diamond light 
Is shining in their eyes

Now violence is a razor and
It cuts us from the past
Power's engine drowns the silence out
And hopeless is the message 
On the evening news broadcast that says
There's nothing that can bring a change about

For the world is burning slowly
And the world is burning fast
And the flames of progress 
Threaten to consume
The residue of faith
That into countless forms has cast 
Some of the faith
That brings the roses into bloom

But those who see the diamond light
As shining in their eyes
Those who see the changes yet to come
They labor in the fields alone
Their soul created ties
While the diamond light 
Is shining in their eyes

The Diamond Light

earlyish celebration of having soprano, alto & tenor recorders :)
