TAKE TO THE SKIES

It's not the youth which isn't working
it's just your ideals growing old
it's not a whole lost generation
much more your life which is on hold

So break some bones if you feel uncertain
and once they've healed you'll love them more
tear down some fences on your way out
become the person we adore

oh we adore you

And since we know things grow with distance
go off and write some memories
to be long told to those who will never
become as brave as wise as you

Oh we fear for your love for us to fade
like lightnings we fight for your attention
we need you to take to the skies
to come back together we will rise

Get it on iTunes!

Serafyn - Take To The Skies

My interpretation of the beautiful song by Phosphorescent. 

Lyrics:

mama there's wolves in the house
mama they won't let me out
mama they're mating at night
mama they wont make nice

they're pacing and glowing bright
their faces all snowy and white
bury their paws in the stone
make for my heart as their home

they tumble and fight
and they're beautiful
on the hilltops at night
they are beautiful

blazing with light
is the whitest and the tallest and the biggest one
she's muscled and fine
when she runs

they're tearing up holes in the house
they're tearing their claws in the ground
they're staring with blood in their mouths
mama they won't let me out

they tumble and fight
and they're beautiful
on the hilltops at night
they are beautiful

blazing with light
is the whitest and the tallest and the biggest one
all muscled and fine
when she runs

mama there's wolves in the house
mama i tried to put them out
and mama i know you're too wise
to wait till those wolves make nice

Here's a stripped down version of one of our favorite Prince songs, Nothing Compares 2 U. We grew up adoring Sinéad O'Connor's cover from 1990.

LYRICS:

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away

Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong

I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me?
Guess what he told me?
He said girl you better try to have fun 
No matter what you do, but he's a fool
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

All the flowers that you planted mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

Music & Lyrics by Philip Whitehead

Winter has fallen,
The leaves contain my heart.
Freedom is calling,
Frost is all around.

I gave my soul to summer,
Left it on the breeze.
Now leave me here in slumber
To freeze.

So let's sleep now till the summertime,
Turn the lights down all the way.
And I'll sleep now, suffocate my mind
Until the dark times go away.

And I'll freak out before the sun gets high,
Until the night takes him away,
And I'm free now.
Yeah, I'm free now

And I'm so tired,
And I'm so tired,
But I'll pray to keep alive.
And I'm so tired,
But I'll pray to keep alive.
And I'm so tired,
But I'll pray to keep alive.
And I'm so tired,
And I'm so tired.

And it's so cold in here without you now.
It's so cold, and you never let me out.
But I'll be cold,
And I'll be here.
'Cause I'm so tired,
Yeah, I'm so tired.

Winter has fallen,
The leaves contained my heart.
Freedom is calling,
Won't stop calling me.

📝 Lyrics:

I wanna be where you are
Now there’s nothing left for me
I wanna get in my car 
And drive as far away 
As can be 

I want the wind in my hair
The sunlight on my face 
I wanna dance in your light 
Just say I can stay tonight 

You know I’ve got nowhere to go 
Got nowhere to hide 
And all , all I’m asking for 
you let me stay tonight 
And keep me from the
Wolves outside

I felt the knots in my chest 
As I watched you cross the room
Wearing your favourite baggy dress
And the perfume I brought you 

The moment i gazed into your eyes 
I saw a lifetime of regret 
I wanna dance in our light 
Please say I can stay tonight 

You know I’ve got nowhere to go 
Got nowhere to hide 
And all , all I’m asking for 
you let me stay tonight 
And keep me from the
Wolves outside.

If you say I can stay tonight

📝 Lyrics:

Lullaby for Lucas
This is a race against the weather
This is a protest against blame
A syringe for you to measure
A poppy stem along your vein
This is a lullaby for Lucas
A high commission from the lame
For curtains drawn in the daytime across a broken window pane
And darlin’, you weren’t to blame
For the wave sent to temp her
To steal away in the night
We will cover your skin in silver
You know we’d treat you right
For the splitting of a second
And the drawback of the bow
In between time heaven
When everything moves slow
And darlin’ ; you weren’t to know
For the magic in your fingers
I know you wait for it to come
But your temper, it rises before the rising sun
This is a lullaby for Lucas
This is a protest in his name
This is in favour of forgiveness
Cuz you know we’re all the same
And darlin’; you weren’t blame

Katherine Abbott - Lullaby For Lucas (with lyrics)

📖 About the song:
Bringing together an exceptionally compelling voice, powerfully memorable melodies and a true knack for crafting contemporary pop music, Australian singer/songwriter John Lingard is poised to make an indelible mark on the international music scene.

2018 saw Lingard make two productive and inspiring trips to Nashville, where he met some important collaborators who helped bring his musical visions to fruition: songwriter Ben Cramer (Old Sea Brigade), songwriter Mark Watrous (The Shins) and producer Owen Lewis. They hit it off on his first foray to Music City (Nashville) in the summer of 2018 and Lingard decided to go back to work on what would become the new EP.

The ability to bring forth such powerful and emotional narratives from his own life, his own thoughts and feelings is the hallmark of a bold and dynamic artist. It is a rare gift, and one that will undoubtedly stir the hearts and minds of audiences around the world.

📝 Lyrics:

Catastrophe
Love without warning 
Capsized on me 
Kicking and screaming
Life is a hurry of worn out dreams 
Stay afloat while we’re sinking 
Getting harder to breathe but 

We’re almost home
We’re almost home 
We’re almost home

No cavalry
No flag on hill waving 
Collapse on me
Fear without waning
I’m building a fire
I’m burning a bridge
I’m looking in your eyes 
Trying not to think but

We’re almost home 
We’re almost home 
We’re almost home
