If you could whisper lullabies
And my dreams could just comply
If you could sink into my bed
Tangled up inside my head

If you could settle like the dust
On my skin to cover me up
be the ether, in the wind
With every breath I'd breathe you in

I could fall asleep
No gravity
We'd waltz on wind and rain
And you'd follow me to highest peaks
We'd be the mountain range

If I fall
When I fail
And there's no wind to fill my sails
And if the current is unsound
You'd be my anchor and hold me down
Down
Down
Down

Fall asleep
No gravity
We'd waltz into the sky
And you'd follow me to oceans deep
Falling with the tide

And we'd rise
Rise
Rise
We'd rise

No gravity when I'm asleep
We'd waltz into the sky

I'm sound asleep
Don't wake me
We're waltzing on the rain


Illucid Waltz (New Version)

Fantastic song by Blitzen Trapper. I figured I'd give it a shot and ended up doing a lot of violin work and staying up way too late.

Lyrics:
It was just a little while past the sunset strip
they found the girl's body in an open pit
her mouth was sewed shut but her eyes were still wide
gazing through the fog to the other side

They booked me on a whim and threw me deep in jail
With no bail, sitting silent on a rusty pail
Just gazing at the marks on the opposite wall
Remembering the music of my lover’s call

So you make no mistake I know just what it takes
To pull a man’s soul back from heaven’s gates
I’ve been wandering in the dark about as long as sin
But they say it’s never too late to start again

Oh when, oh when
Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to send?
Oh when, oh when
Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

It was dark as the grave, it was just about three
When the warden with his key came to set me free
They gave me five dollars and a secondhand suit
A pistol and a hat and a worn out flute

So I took a bus down to the Rio Grande
And I shot a man down on the edge of town
Then I stole me a horse and I rode it around
Til the sheriff pulled me in and he sat me down 

He said, you make no mistake
I know just what it takes
To pull a man’s soul back from heaven’s gates
I’ve been wandering in the dark about as long as sin
But they say it’s never too late to start again

Oh when, oh when
Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to send?
Oh when, Oh when
Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

Well the sheriff let me go with a knife and a song
So I took the first train up to Oregon
And I killed the first man that I came upon
Because the devil works quick, you know it don’t take long 

Then I went to the river for to take a swim
You know that black river water is as black as sin
And I washed myself clean as a newborn babe
And then I picked up a stone for to sharpen my blade

Oh when, oh when
Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to send?
Oh when, oh when
Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?
Oh when, oh when
Will that black river water wash me clean again?
Oh when, oh when
Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?

Black River Killer

Incantations

My take on this great track by Portishead. I recorded the guitar and main vox then added on several harmonies in the vocals and guitar, and added a violin track. 
Enjoy, and please let me know what you think.


The Rip

Second and newer version of this great song by Magnetic Fields. Added several harmonies to round out the sound a bit, enjoy

Lyrics:

A monster from the river by the back of our home
Clenched around my ankle, teeth digging to the bone
Rising up so quick and clever
Only for my hopes to wither

Woke up in a ring of trees
With a bandolier of lead
Finished off the whiskey 
To satisfy my head 

what gave shivers to my heart was not the tremor of the earth
but the way the sky was dyed 
and how you loved me
and how you loved me as I loved you before my body fled
and I shimmered in and out of my existence

I wait for the night because the stars can not be counted
Drop down the heavy shutters when the sun has me surrounded
Every night is deadly with beasts braying in the dark
Sharks swim the air around but every bullet finds its mark

My severed mind left behind this simmering remorse
Tired zombies flowing out of illuminated halls
It turns out everybody’s swimming in the river
Turns out I am swimming in the river
Turns out I will now become the water
If I was really anything before her

what gave shivers to my heart was not the tremor of the earth
but the way the sky was dyed 
and how you loved me
and how you loved me as I loved you before my body fled
and I shimmered in and out of my existence.
