This song takes me to a peaceful place, perfect for reflecting in the small hours of the night.

The horrors of modern urban warfare - started most recently in Syria, then extended to Ukraine and now Gaza. Nowhere is safe at time of conflict. The great sadness of our world.

Excellent, compelling and a perfect distance in between the ethereal and real world. It can be super challenging (for me anyway) to write something about a real event, without it being as flat as a book report. But this is anything but that

Six Feet Never Felt So Far. By Glenny G November 8th 2021
SIX FEET NEVER FELT SO FAR
I RIDE ALONE IN MY CAR
I LOOK TOWARDS A DISTANT STAR
WONDER IF THERE'S LIFE ON MARS
WENT TO FISH MY FAVORITE LAKE
WHEN THE GROUND BEGAN TO SHAKE
I'VE NEVER FELT A REAL EARTHQUAKE
AM I ASLEEP OR AM I AWAKE
I CAN'T DENY IT I SEE THE SIGNS
AS THE SUMMER FRUIT ROTS ON THE VINE
NOW THEY SAY THERE'S CLIMATE CHANGE
STORMS AND FIRES HAVE MANY NAMES
WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHO'S TO BLAME
LIFE ON EARTH IS NOT THE SAME
THE WILDLIFE DISAPEARS
WE NEVER SHED A SINGLE TEAR
WE JUST BURN OUT ANOTHER YEAR
THEN LOOK OURSELVES IN THE MIRROR
BUT THERE'S A GOOD LIFE STILL AHEAD
I'M STILL BREATHING AND GODS NOT DEAD
GODS NOT DEAD NO GODS NOT DEAD 
SOLO/CHORUS
THERE SEEMS TO BE TWO DIFFERENT TRIBES
WE'RE CUT IN HALF AND THEN DIVIDE
ALL ALONG IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT
SIX FEET APART NO END IN SIGHT

Six Feet Never Felt So Far (Original) With Lyrics

Duch

Every Damn Thing
Writers: Carey Latham

I could sit here and watch her in the morning sun
Never leave this room, never get enough 
Of her love, of her touch
That’s what she does, leaves me wanting more
Even tho she fills me up

Like April rain hittin’ that Mississippi river
Like every color meltin’ those skies out in Denver
Like a song on the radio I gotta hear again
She’s whiskey on my lips 
She’s everything I’ve never had and now
She’s every damn thing I don't wanna live without 

I can tell her the troubles weighing on my mind
She holds me with those I got you eyes
Lifts me high, so I fly
All day and night, never lets me fall
Oh but I fall every time

(Repeat CH)

She's an Elvis t-shirt when she’s ready for those covers
Smelling so sweet I can't let go of her
She's strong as that “Believe” on that pink coffee cup  
Lookin like she dropped down from heaven above

Like April rain hittin’ that Mississippi river
Like every color meltin’ those skies out in Denver
Like a song on the radio I gotta hear again
She’s whiskey on my lips 
She’s everything I’ve never had and now
She’s every damn thing I don't wanna live without 

tag
Yeah she’s everything I don’t wanna live without

EVERY DAMN THING

 simply the worst pun in the history of bad puns !
We would like to apologize in advance to you,  dear listeners.

The importance of being Ernest (Ring my wedding bells)

Grief and Time walk into a bar
Grief says please don't break my heart
Time looks to the side and says
Let the moment decide my friend 

And The Moment pours himself a drink 
and before he has a chance to think
Silence walks in with a steely grin
and says it's my world you're living in

Useless heart 
how you got me this far
I will never know
but you lead me to this bar
with all these strangers I know 

Loneliness is in a bathroom stall
writing crude words onto the wall
Anxiety is rioting because her name was in the writing 
everybody sighs because she does this nightly

Carings in the corner oversharing
one too many and her smile is blaring
Grudge never liked the other much
but with him she's always had a special touch 

Useless heart 
how you got me this far
I will never know
but you lead me to this bar
with all these strangers I know 

Tensions throwing punches to the crowd 
and he breaks the Silence's nose into the ground
everybody orders another round 
and a one way ticket trouble bound

And before the last shot is tasted
Time is wasted

Useless heart 
how you got me this far
I will never know
but you lead me to this bar
with all these strangers I know 
with all these strangers I know 
with all these strangers I know 
with all these strangers I know

once again our eyes
glued to our screens
as we watch horror unfold

never forget we cry
while we watch these fires fly
and twilight ends the day

how easily we forget
that this news
really, it ain't new

ain't no victors
in the afterglow
only a pain that grows

oh woah oh
oh woah oh
oh woah oh
oh woah oh

mothers and children
the sick and the dying
buried 'neath the rubble in the streets

these shallow graves
don't care who's laying there
bare and free for all to see

time's running out
the clock ticks on
before the final death knell rings

who will tell the stories
of the broken and the slain
so we don't do this shit again

oh woah oh
oh woah oh
oh woah oh
oh woah oh
oh woah oh
oh woah oh

in the small hours of the night...

Love found me
I was walking in the Forest
I was walking in the Forest
& love found me

& I cried my surprise
To all the bluebells in the Forest
All those bluebells in the Forest
When love found me

I did not see it coming
But that’s no fault of my own
I’d walked into the forest alone
After all, it’s on my way Home

He kissed me
I was lying in the meadow
Just lying in the meadow
& he kissed me

& I cried my delight
To all the rabbits in the meadow
“All you rabbits in the meadow
He kissed me!”

I did not see it coming
But that’s no fault of my own
I’d lain down on the meadow alone
After all, it’s on my way Home

He left me
Now I’m walking through the valley
I am walking through the valley
Where he left me

And I cry, O I cry
And it echoes in the valley
Hear it echo in the valley
“He left me.”

I did not see it coming
But that’s no fault of my own
I will walk through the valley alone
After all, it’s on my way Home.
