Many people have a battle with mental health. This song is about that struggle. To keep ourselves together.

Lyrics:

For miles and miles and miles
We saw our lives in piles
History as our mirror
Face ourselves in fear

The sand for miles and miles
Surrounds our cries 
Ohhh!
Fallen ones
They tried hard
Now they lie down
Hardened souls
Who fought hard
Didn’t turn them against the cause

Waves of thoughts come
Into our head
Attacking our resolve
This fight to dissolve apathy
All our willpower
Needed for the march ahead 
To face the enemy within

One and two and three and four
March across the broken glass
Five and six and seven, eight
Heading for the lemming fate
(There’s got to be another voice, 
a voice that brings another choice. 
Hold on, watch your step, 
Marching to a different world of hope. Hope. Hope. Hope.)

Ohhhh!

Imagine we had all won,
Imagine we were all one.
One.

The Enemy Within

Written in 1985, a sad tale of rejection and loss. Recorded in 2021 as an early attempt at using studio software.
Lyrics:

Why did you run

You’re presence still stays
In the room and on the things that you’ve touched
And I’ve tried so hard not to love 

But it’s so hard to expel you from my soul 

So Why, tell me why did you run?
(Why did you run?)
You never told me but you told everyone 
(You told everyone)
Yeah And you told them that you no longer loved me
(You said you don’t love me)
Yeah And I need you so bad so why can’t you see
That I need you so why can’t you need me? 

Have you any idea of the hurt and pain that remains? 
And there must be a release but I will not run away

But it’s so hard to expel you from my soul

So Why, tell me why did you run?
(Why did you run?)
You never told me but you told everyone 
(You told everyone)
Yeah And you told them that you no longer loved me
(You said you don’t love me)
And I need you so bad so why can’t you see
That I need you so why can’t you need me?

-----

We’ve come too far
can’t fall 
or back down 

We find ourselves
Right here
Right now

I’ve got a misperception,
slip in and out of mind

Outside of mind

The truth is here to be revealed
The point is just to be for real

It is what’s here and now to stay
When you've got no more games to play
Are you coming back to reality?
Are you stepping back to reality?

Are you waking up to reality?
There is a true connection
Between everything

We’ve made an art
Of playing
the fool

I’ve found a true connection
The right place at the right time

There’s simply nothing in the way
If you stop pretending to be asleep
We’re all standing on the same stage
Right at this temporal edge of space
Are you coming back to reality?
Are you edging back to reality?
Are you stepping back to reality?
Are you waking up to reality?
There is a true connection
There is a true connection
There is a true connection
Between everything

MY DAYS IN EYDON.
=============================

Second time I collaborate with Peter.

Great musician, exceptional lyricist and masterful social critic. All his work is full of social winks, a memory of something or someone or a beautiful poetry, and you can see it in the link below.

https://soundcloud.com/user-264930040

The first time he was kind enough to give me, on top of music I sent him, wonderful lyrics about my city, in which I feel deeply lucky to live. Do not publish this song as a gift, but you can listen to it in the following link.

https://soundcloud.com/user-264930040/hot-seville-night?si=d574dcbb06ff45648b332f9ffaca4522&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

That's why I decided to finish an unfinished song in December 2015 so that I could describe the town where he lives and return the gift to him.

Thank you Peter for your patience, enthusiasm and dedication.


Lyrics.

Ghosts
Float through my mind
Souls from ancient times
Speaking in their song of bones
Through tombstone telephones
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering

Stones
Spangled with iron
In perpetual denial
Of earthly ticks and tocks
Doing time in village stocks
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering
…..........they're whispering.... now....

Earth
Soft as the bells
Old hands forged them well
When you can smell the time
And hear the fires shine
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering

Ghosts
Float through my mind
Souls from ancient times
Speaking in their song of bones
Through tombstone telephones
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering
…..........they're whispering.... 
…..............but the whispering …..is mine.....
…...................it's all mine....

My Days In Eydon (Peter & Midisound)

What began as a collaboration with Debra Buesking has expanded to include the wonderful vocal talent of Paolo Pieraccini (@mayadog).  His singing, especially in Italian, gives the song a sweet, emotional intimacy and urgency.  A lovely honor to have him grace our song with his talent. Hear more fine music on his profile and Debbie's too @debra_buesking. 
Lyrics in Italian and English:
Dimmi dove sei
Torno a casa e non ti trovo più
Le tue calze sopra il letto
Sempre accesa la TV

Non dimentico
Le tue promesse in bilico
e le domeniche
Sempre spese solo dove decidi tu
Forse ho il cuore troppo piccolo
Per lasciarti la tua libertà
casca il mondo
quando te ne vai

Mille baci e poi
All’improvviso il vuoto fra di noi
Non so perché rimango appeso qui
Il tuo canto mi ha ingannato
e come Ulisse mi salverò
Ma poi ricadrò
nella tua tela ancora

Sei sparita ormai
irraggiungibile
ma è sicuro io ti troverò per dirti che
che non mi arrendo e voglio solo te
Puoi scommetterci
Vorrei sentire ancora i brividi
Mentre stringo la tua mano
per non lasciarti più
………………..
Chissà dove sei

Tell me where you are
I come home and I can't find you anymore
Your socks over the bed
Still on the TV

I do not forget
Your promises in the balance
and Sundays
Always spending only where you decide
Maybe my heart is too small
To leave you your freedom
the world falls
when are you leaving

A thousand kisses and then
Suddenly the void between us
I don't know why I'm hanging here
Your singing deceived me
and like Ulysses I will save myself
But then I'll fall back
in your web again

You're gone now
unattainable
but it's sure I'll find you to tell you that
that I'm not giving up and I just want you
you can bet
I wish I could still feel the chills
As I hold your hand
not to leave you anymore
……………… ..
Who knows where you are

Easy To Please (featuring Paolo; vocal) Debbie; Piano, David; Guitar

Texas protest song to stop the Bell County East to Big Hill 765kv Transmission Project that threatens pristine Texas Hill Country.

Two Hundred Miles of Greed
 
(Verse 1)
I was rockin’ on the porch when the letter came  
Red line runnin’ straight through my grandpa’s name  
Two hundred miles of steel from Bell County East  
All the way to Big Hill, feedin’ that Permian beast  
They say it’s for the grid, but the truth ain’t hard to see—  
It’s oil-field money talkin’, not you and me  

(Chorus) 
Two hundred miles of greed, towers tall and cold  
Oncor and LCRA get their ten percent in gold  
They’ll cash that check forever while we pay the bill  
For lights we never asked for on these Texas hills  
Lord, give us strength to stand, boots firm in this clay  
These towers ain’t comin’ through—not today  

(Verse 2) 
They’ll tell you it’s progress, they’ll tell you it’s fair  
But the profit’s guaranteed—ten percent right there  
Every bolt, every wire, every foot of that line  
We’ll be payin’ till our grandkids are past their prime  
While the rigs keep pumpin’ black gold out west  
They want our quiet ranches to carry the rest  

(Chorus again)

(Bridge) 
We’ve fought the drought, the flood, the banker and the bank  
Stood shoulder to shoulder in the live-oak shade  
From Blackbuck Ridge to Lampasas, we’re drawin’ that line  
This land ain’t for sale and it sure ain’t theirs to sign  

(Final Chorus)  
Two hundred miles of greed, we’re sendin’ it back  
Tell the suits in Austin we’re stayin’ on track  
Let the Permian pay its own way down the road  
Hill Country hearts ain’t carryin’ that load  
No, these towers ain’t comin’ through—not today…  
Two hundred miles of greed just hit a dead-end highway  

(Tag)  
Tell Oncor and LCRA the bill’s comin’ due…  
And it ain’t ours to pay.

Moved On

I’m a singer/songwriter from Guildford, Surrey, England. I started writing songs when I was 12 on a piano but really got into it when I started playing the guitar at 13/14. As with so many of us, career and family became the priority and I stopped writing over a 30 year period. Now I’ve retired, I’ve finally got time to write and record again and I love it! 
I play everything on the songs and record on my MacBook on GarageBand. Still learning! 
I hope you enjoy the songs and thank you in advance for any comments and feedback. 
James
