Wonderful melodies, excellent orchestration.

you don't have to be right,
you don't have to be.
there's every chance the world is upside down.
in strange jaws
and broken mouth
though how the tongues are soaked but never drown...

don't worry yourself,
don't worry.
the ocean doesn't judge with all it knows.
say sorry to your tired limbs and lay them on the shore
the body won't stop pulsing under clothes

the colours of the massacre that opened up my throat
and dripped down to the floor
there's a pool of barely spoken, hardly thought , and never wrote,
and stains forever more.
who are we breathing for?
who are we breathing for?

are you brave enough to follow between the stolen sounds?
are you wise enough to know what cuts in two?
can you rise to the challenge whilst you fall to the ground?
am I asking you in me or me in you?
are you brave enough to follow between the stolen sounds?
are you wise enough to know what cuts in two?
can you rise?

Music/Lyrics/Mix/Arrangement/Singing and playing: Achazia
Still a little work in progress. Trying to figure out the end with a instument solo. Had this song on private by mistake. Curious what you think of it so far :)

Lyrics:
I need a place to fall apart.
Where I can heal my longing heart.
So, please tell me where you are.

I am walking through the  lands.
As I close my empty hands
and leave it all behind.

Strange eyes
Blue as the hopeful sky
There's something 'bout the way you look at me. I'm mesmerized

Strange eyes
Making waves inside
There's something 'bout the way you look at me. I'm mesmerized


I can hear the siren's call
Would I rise or would I fall
So. please tell me where you are.

I saw you standing there alone
In the mist on your own
Take these empty hans.

Strange eyes
Blue as the hopeful sky
There's something in the way you look at me. I'm mesmerized

Strange eyes
Making waves inside
There's something in the way you look at me. I'm mesmerized

Strange eyes

This is the 5th track in the "Seven Dreams of the Orb Weaver" medley.  (If you like this one, you might like listening to the whole medley in sequence--you can find it in the album section https://soundcloud.com/skai-eriksson/sets/seven-dreams-of-the-orb-weaver.)  The previous track "Waltz of the Pelicans" ends with a counterpoint sequence intended to set the mood for this track.  In turn, the current track ends on an unresolved chord, where the cadence is completed on the opening chord of the subsequent track "Shadows of a Spider Spinning Silk".

My second collab with multi instrumentalist Philleann. I have a soft spot for irish flutes and pipes and Phil always plays so beautiful.
This song is called the Huntsmans Son. You can also hear some vocals from Lena Arlid.

"Yes...Men Cry"

Is it weakness to be sensitive & show the secret hidden deep?
And even as you see the lines appear on my face, this heart was yours to keep
Consider these tears meaningless if no one really cares to speak or even see
Yes...Men Cry & you once whispered in my ear that you knew all of me....

Do you think it is freedom to be alone or have I been ranting too long
Over extended this heartless plea, was I ever your king or was I just wrong
Yes...Men Cry & sometimes they reveal dark secrets allowing you to see the soft side
Left me here for reasons of your own & now I understand why I must forever hide

Winter Visitors

Iris


There was an iris in the way that I saw you smiling,
dancing to the London song, crying in my mind..
It is so quiet now that the music has faded into night
now that the hymns have gone away, the gardens broke in two

Hold me in the wild winds, calling in the night
tomorrow all these angels gone away
And who we love and what we love, don’t mean a thing to me
it’s just the lights and how they rumble in your head

Iris deeping blue and closing
wrap your body round me mind
drying drowning slowly falling 
gentle show me the unwind...
.
.
.
.

[I wrote this song a long time ago, back in the ‘80s when I was living in London and signed up to EMI... it was not a ‘suitable’ song for recording back then... heh, no hooks and a loose groove..  but I unearthed it the other day and it just seemed to flow in my own wee studio.  It’s virtually all acoustic, with a light layer of synth... and a few sonic gaps filled here and there...   I played my upright piano and blended that together with the vst piano, kicked a few bottles around and then pretended my poor cello was a jazzy bass...  it gave me a great blister to play it that way!   

It feels like quite a journey, to remember this song from back in another very different part of my life and now to re-claim it... as all my own work.    :-)]
