Just the Beginning (The Veil Lifted) Part 2

Origami

Some mornings I sit there in silence and think, “I can’t keep doing this.” Then I remember I said that last week… and I’m still here, still trying, still giving it everything I’ve got. That’s not weakness. That’s strength most people will never understand. Let's own the day

Own the Day

Breaking Free

Life is not easy. Keep going you've got this. 

Strength in the Struggle

Life is not easy. Keep going.  You will make it. Especially with a little help from Brazil

Strength in the Struggle 'alt'

Remembering the hero's. Theirs and their families sacrifices. Not just for WWI/WWII but for all conflicts.

In the darkness before the dawn,
Brave souls take flight, and the struggle goes on,
Pilots in the sky, soldiers on the ground,
Fighting for freedom, where courage is found.
They sort through the chaos, files in their hands,
Bonds forged in fire, united they stand,
Each heartbeat a promise, each sacrifice made,
Echoing stories of the choices they've laid.

Lest we forget, the battles they fight,
In the shadow of grief, we honour their light,
Through the tempest and trial, their spirits remain,
As the past intertwines with the joy and the pain.

From the fields of France to the coasts of old England,
Their duty calls firm, and they respond to command,
Each sight that they witness, a burden to bear,
Memories woven in the fabric they wear.
In the reeking tubes and iron shards lie,
The death of young dreams, the question of why,
Sons and daughters lost in the storm of the fight,
Each name a reminder, each heart a light.

Lest we forget, the battles they fight,
In the shadow of grief, we honour their light,
Through the tempest and trial, their spirits remain,
As the past intertwines with the joy and the pain.

The tumult and shouting, it fades with the night,
Captains and Kings, they’re lost from our sight,
Yet where do we go when the art turns to dust?
We carry the weight; in remembrance we trust.
No mercy for anyone, the harsh price we pay,
In the face of the horror, the brave find their way.

Because these are the stories of glorious lives,
Of bravery's echoes, where true courage thrives,
Families shattered, yet resilient and strong,
In the heart of the battle, we all belong.
At the going down of the sun, we stand tall,
Remembering the heroes who answered the call,
With every breath taken, we pledge by their side,
In honour and gratitude, their spirits abide.

Lest we forget, the battles they fight,
In the shadow of grief, we honour their light,
Through the tempest and trial, their spirits remain,
As the past intertwines with the joy and the pain.

So lift up your voices, let the trumpets ring clear,
For courage and sacrifice, we draw ever near,
With heavy hearts beating, we carry their names,
Together in honour, their legacy claims.
Lest we forget, through the trials and test,
We cherish their spirits, our heroes, the best.




Lest We Forget

Smile an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you down
'Cause that would bring a tear to me

This world has lost its glory
Let's start a brand new story now, my love
Right now, there'll be no other time
And I can show you how, my love

Talk in everlasting words
And dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm here if you should call to me

You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have
To take your heart away

You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have
To take your heart away
It's only words and words are all I have
To take your heart away
It's only words and words are all I have
To take your heart away



Live: Words (Bee Gees)

“Do You Believe in Dreams” is a powerful, synth-driven rock track that blends soaring electronic textures with bold charged energy. Pulsing analog synths cut through the mix, supported by driving drums and a dynamic melodic progression that feels both anthemic and cinematic. The track carries a sense of forward motion and emotional lift—equal parts nostalgia and adrenaline—evoking neon-lit nights, big questions, and the electric spark of chasing something just out of reach.

Whether for high-energy playlists, action-charged visuals, or fans of retro-inspired modern rock, this track delivers a vibrant mix of edge, atmosphere, and momentum.

Do You Believe In Dreams

Blurring lines between devotion, love and obsession

I've got a river running right into you,
Flowing wild and free, like the fire in my view.
I've got a blood trail, red in the blue,
Every step I take pulls me closer to the truth.
The taste of the divine, it’s burning in my veins,
Your touch ignites a storm, breaking all my chains.
You got my body, flesh, and bone, yeah,
The sky above and the earth below, what have you shown?

Raise me up again, take me past the edge,
I want to see the other side—oh, let me pledge.
Show me what it’s like, the thrill and the fear,
With you here beside me, I’ll drown out the sheer.

Raise me up again, take me past the edge,
Heaven and hell, a tightrope, I'm on the ledge.
My love, did I mistake you for a sign from God?
Or are you really here just to watch me nod?
Maybe just to turn me on, oh, can’t you see?
Caught up in your magic, it’s where I want to be.

'Cause these days, I would be lying if I told,
That I didn’t wish that I could hold you so bold.
Or maybe make a good girl bad for a night,
Together like a blaze, ready for the fight.
I've got a river running right into you,
I've got a blood trail, red in the blue.
Something you say or something you do,
The taste of the divine, oh, it feels so true.

You've got my body, flesh, and bone,
The sky above, and the earth below, we’re never alone.
Nothing to say and nowhere to go,
In this raw intensity, let our passions flow.

I've got a river running right into you,
A tempest between us, wild and true.
Through the chaos, we'll break every chain,
With a pulse on the edge—let me feel that pain.
Together we rise up, against the tide we feed,
In this raging river, love’s an eternal creed.

River Into You

rocking around the christmas tree  (johnny marx)

This song was inspired by a friend of mine who's going through a battle with cancer and it became very apparent that not only was he going through it, his loving wife was also going through it supporting him. This song needed to be written for all the partners that suffer as well.
Created using Band in a Box and Sonar.
