Lyrics:

Verse:
I know your face 
from the magazines
from the movie screens
from all of it

I can’t get
myself to LA
these days, you know
I fucking hate it

I’m here in BK
where nothing is fake
you’ll still find the snakes
on the concrete

PreChorus:
(instrumental)

Chorus:
I know
I’ve been here before
I know how it ends
I know how it goes

Verse:
I feel our time
Is ticking on by
The more we try
The more we seem to die 

Oh, honey 
Don’t you know
There’s distance in you
I’m speaking the truth
oh oh

ooohh oohhh….

PreChorus:
she sends a postcard to say I…

Chorus:
I know
I’ve been here before
I know how it ends
I know how it goes

Yeah, I Know How It Goes

MY FRIEND JORGE

I HAVE NO EXCUSE - 14db - Burl - ADC / Summing

I can pretend

Olivia, I Don’t Want To Sing

BG:
Olivia

INTRO:
You took 
Olivia
Olivia
away from me

VERSE:
I was like a dove
resting 
right outside your window

I comfort you with love
Through songs
You were my only true one

There must be something wrong, Dear
I haven’t seen a smile on your face in over a year

Now blackbirds sing along  
They sing the songs that mourning doves sing 
when you’re gone

PRECHORUS:
when you’re gone
when you’re gone

CHORUS:
love, I don’t want to sing you this song
When you’re gone  
When you’re gone 

VERSE 2:
I’m catching all the worms
In the cemetery

I hope I’ll find your heart
The one that’s buried 
below is where we all go

This dove has lost his love, you know 

so now, I fly around 
and visit your window sill 
I miss the way you were
I’d greet you every morning
we’d sing our lovely songs
we’d shout the harmonies
it rang through neighborhoods
now we can’t sing our song
no, now that you’re gone

BRIDGE:
I won’t want to sing
to you, anymore
I just want you back with me
I don’t want to sing the song again
I just want you back with me
I don’t want to sing…

CHORUS:
I don’t want to sing…
I don’t want to sing…
I don’t want to sing…

No I don’t want to sing
Not when you’re gone
Not when you’re not here
Not when you’re gone
Not when you’re not around to hear

Olivia, I want you to know that
I cannot sing for you
Olivia, I need you to know that
I cannot sing for you
Olivia, Olivia, Olivia, I know
Olivia, Olivia, Olivia!

I Like Bubbles and You Like Bubbles

Stuck With You

Radiant :: Lyrics

Here I am 
in a different time
a brand new shade
a different light

there I go
away from you
escape the darkness
escape the room

I am radiant
I am glowing like the sun….

 

Radiant (Sample)

This is an original instrumental track written, recorded, mixed and produced by Eric David Smith. 

I Had Words For This But Decided To Keep Them Silent

Lyrics :: We Just Couldn’t Keep Our Fire Bright

I was true
I was just like you
I gave my heart away
the same as you
oh, babe it hurts
but I feel it
yeah, I feel it too

see when we met
the stars were in our eyes
but then we saw
the spark it slowly died
we picked up sticks
and rubbed  them with all our might 
but we just couldn’t keep our fire bright

We tried so hard

We Just Couldn’t Keep Our Fire Bright

Lyrics :: Sticks And Stones

light up the candle
you said it would never die
just burn at wick
let it shine
let it shine

we traveled down
the aftermath
of our remains
I’ll never take you back 
and you know what hurts?
all the lies you told 
such a clever game
playing sticks and stones

melt downs and tantrums
you said you’d be fine
the truth was a lie
how could I have been 
so very blind?
so very blind

and we traveled down
the aftermath
of our remains
I’ll never take you back 
and you know what hurts?
all the lies you told 
such a clever game
playing sticks and stones

now all that remains
was the aftermath
don’t tell me you’ve changed
see you’re hot and cold

and we traveled down
the aftermath
of our remains
I’ll never take you back 
and you know what hurts?
all the lies you told 
such a clever game
playing sticks and stones

Written, recorded, produced by Eric David Smith on August 1, 2016 in Brooklyn

Lyrics :: 

i was in a cold room
feeling blood around my neck
and the noose was made of leather
and your voice was fading out 

when my bones and blood start healing
you’ll see my love will never die
and I’ll come back for revenge
and I’ll find a reason why

You'll See My Love Will Never Die

This track was created from the inspiration of Charlie Chaplin's Speech "The Great Dictator" - I sampled his speech from Youtube and produced an original track around it using half of the speech.

"Soldiers! don’t give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts! You don’t hate! Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural! Soldiers! Don’t fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!

In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: “the Kingdom of God is within man” - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.

Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise. They never will!

Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people! Now let us fight to fulfill that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men’s happiness. Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite!"

Liberty Will Never Perish
