*** Lyrics ***

Saw my heart in half
Left it on the floor
Memories come back
Don't want them no more

Tears on my sleeve
Tryin’ to believe
Lost in the waves
Of a love I can't save

Saw my heart in half
Just a photograph
Time is slipping fast
Was it built to last?

Tears in the night
Caught in black and white
Dreams of you and I
Fade into the sky

Moments that we shared
Now they leave me scarred
Stitches start to tear
Do you even care?

Saw my heart in half
Just a photograph
Time is slipping fast
Was it built to last?

Saw my heart in half
Left it on the floor
Memories come back
Don't want them no more

Saw My Heart Out

Saw My Heart

***Lyrics written by yours truly ***

You tore pieces off me 
So slowly I didn't even notice
Until it was too late
There was nothing left of me

Now we're both damaged souls
Time can't heal wounds this deep

All the pieces of me
What will never be
All the secrets we keep
Feelings buried deep

What would I have become
If we had never met
I know I'll never get back
The part of me that is lost

I should have ended it
Yet I hung on
To what was doomed
From the start

Now we're both damaged souls
Time can't heal wounds this deep

All the pieces of me
What will never be
All the secrets we keep
Feelings buried deep

Long conversations
Were well overdue
Both pretending
That everything is fine

Now we're both damaged souls
Time can't heal wounds this deep

All the pieces of me
What will never be
All the secrets we keep
Feelings buried deep

Deep Wounds

Damaged Souls

Song using midi guitar parts I recorded 12 years ago.

Lost in my mind
Floating in space
Nothing around
Just an empty place

In my fantasy
Colors so bright
Holding on so tight
To what I can't see

Perpetual daydream
Lost in the sky
Stopping time
Letting life pass by

Feel the sunlight
Warm on my skin
Dreaming again
Again and again

Endless like an ocean
Drifting on a breeze
Caught in the motion
Lost in my memories

Perpetual daydream
Lost in the sky
Stopping time
Letting life pass by

Perpetual daydream
Floating on air
In my mind
I am always there

Softly now
The world fades out
Dreaming
With eyes wide open

Perpetual daydream
Floating on air
In my mind
I am always there

Softly now
The world fades out
Dreaming
With eyes wide open

Perpetual Daydream

*** Acoustic version ***

Woke up in the future, but it wasn't what I expected
Flying cars and robots, but the feeling was disconnected (ooh-yeah)
Neon lights and shiny things, but the soul was hardly reflected
Lost in a world that's colder, where love seems neglected

Virtual realities and screens
Where true connection fades away
Searching for meaning in an artificial display (ooh-yeah)
Technology advanced, but the heart didn't progress
Yearning for a simpler time, when hearts were truly blessed

Caught in a time machine, but it's not what it seems (no, no)
Lost in a future that's chasing a dream (ooh-yeah)
Yearning for a glimpse of the past, where love felt real and memories last
Woke up in the future, but it wasn't what I expected

Caught in a time machine, but it's not what it seems (no, no)
Lost in a future that's chasing a dream (ooh-yeah)
Yearning for a glimpse of the past, where love felt real and memories last
Woke up in the future, but it wasn't what I expected

Woke Up In The Future / Glimpse Of The Past (Instrumental)

*** Lyrics by Carlton Carr ***
 
I met you in the chat room
Of a singles dating site
Disappointed to find
That we lived so far apart

Screen to screen 
Heart to heart
Meant to be 
Forever apart

Foreplay on facetime
Climax on the phone
Virtual connections
But still we are alone

Artificial intelligence
Can never make this real
Images and words
Masquerade as sex appeal

Screen to screen 
Heart to heart
Meant to be 
forever apart

Eventually we grew apart
Our love was doomed
Right from the start

Screen to screen
Heart to heart

Screen To Screen (Smooth Jazz)

Money's tight always feels like a fight
Twenty five short it just ain't right
Got no room for extra flair
Just enough to get me there

Counting coins every little bit
Stretching thin just to make it fit
Real broke versus somewhere inbetween
Two worlds apart from what I've seen

Between pay cheques feeling the strain
Between pay cheques feeling the pain
Not the same no it's not the same
Broke for real or just in the game

Got a job still can't relax
Pay those bills can't pay for snacks
Got a gap from A to B
Living lean that's reality

Between pay cheques feeling the strain
Between pay cheques feeling the pain
Not the same no it's not the same
Broke for real or just in the game

Real Broke

Caliente-Más Fuerte

I used to play guitar and make instrumental music, but I gave that all up many years ago. With the rapid advancement in music technology, I decided to give it another crack using my keen ear and cutting edge tech to create some awesome tracks! Lyrics are inspired by sayings and words of wisdom found online from various sources.
