The whole playlist is best with headphones on, Have you ever woke up alone crying? Then your in the right place, my specialty, trying to get over being hurt, it sucks! The new album at this point is being called Wounded Soul in honor of it, what is, it? the dread, it becomes alive but only if you let it, it's mind over matter, you know the rest,  I woke up from one of those bad dreams again. But I reject that outlook, can a person get PTSD or whatever that's called, from a divorce? I remember waking up and writing most of the words down on the back of an envelope with the title song, and my son we'll just call him Jr. wrote the first 2 verses just passin' through, Lol . I remember thinking my soul is indeed wounded from my last affair.  I am a happy person it took being alone to realize it. The devil you don't know is you.

Wounded Soul  (best with headphones)

I added some lyrics, not finished yet, car test

turned your back on me

A little blues jam I created , I have lyrics for, just wanted to post the jam for now,vocals to come. I woke up and had this riff in my head, I happened to have the recorder up and running and I just did it in 10 minutes. It seems the songs I do the best are in this way. Maybe it's because when I wake up I am still in touch with the artist inside better. I also wrote Lost again & When you were mine this way. Maybe that is why they sound a little dreamy, I tried to capture the essence of the way I felt at the time.  It is true for me that playing a blues song makes me feel better. If you get something from it, that would make it even better. 

Désespéré (Hopeless)

The talking in the front is from the video Bonds of the past from Immanuel Velikovsky, that man (Humans)( us) have a collective Amnesia from the cataclysms of our past and we are a species with amnesia, along with, acute Scotoma definition at the bottom, Resulting in all of the neurotic crazy love-starved hurt reactions of the people of the world, We are wounded and abandoned, it has traumatized us so bad that we seem intelligent enough to see our coming doom but not whole enough to do something about it, There is profit in death and sickness, peace and life they destroy, creating cement with chalk destroys the planets oxygen atmosphere it is toxic, yet we release tons and tons into the air, we trash our tiny blue jewel of a planet they say we love Many of us do so much, what is wrong with people?  But, I like to think I am an optimist, or should it be op-ti must!  I did submit my resume to the optimist club, but I don't think they'll accept my application,  people are beginning to wake up it has become a cliché' but it is actually true, according to astronomers we are closer to the galactic arm and indeed more power than ever is flowing through the Solar system, but on the other side of that the sun has never been weaker, but that's nature unpredictable, 

Mars is growing ozone and clouds, Venus is cooling off and losing its poison envelope, Neptunian satellite Triton has an unstable orbit, if it breaks free from Neptune who probably stole it from Saturn it is according to Velikovsky 50/50 whether it leaves the system or makes a break for the inner system, it could mess everything up, things like that or another old cliché that's true most are if not all,  shit happens, it sure does, don't we know that, the most alarming thing to me is Velikovsky's ominous  warnings, that amnesia victims are often doomed to repeat the performance, the only thing that is inevitable is change, this current state of the solar system or what I call phase everything especially life is in a set of phases,  may last for thousands of years more, but one day it will change again, just like it has many times before, SCOTOMA define: The word ‘scotoma’ is most commonly associated with vision, and it refers to a blind spot . A ‘psychological scotoma’ is another type of blind spot only this one occurs in the way we view reality. It means there is information in our experience that is inconvenient for our ego, and it responds by turning a ‘blind eye’ to it.

Psychological scotoma usually arises as a response to cognitive dissonance. This refers to a situation where there is some type of conflict between our beliefs, opinions, and our behavior. Our ego doesn’t like there to be any obvious inconsistency in our thinking, and it responds to such a situation by using strategies such as psychological scotoma.

AMNESIA Twilight of the Gods(REMASTERED)

Yes, you did did me in, on the other side now,
lyrics: 
Take the lovin' on the run, disappear when the money's gone, 
walk between the raindrops with no shame,
Every dog has it's day, yours is comin' your way,
You'll drink from your cup of sorrow,
Throwin' rocks to hide your crime, you're a legend in your own mind,
You live like there's no tomorrow,
Every dog has it's day,it's comin' your way,Your incognito,
that's the way that it goes, first your money then your clothes,
pay your dues to the devil,
Mark Bolan's gutter gaunt gangster, you feel juxtaposed, go ahead and feed your monster,
like a dog that's starved in the rain, still trying to pull my chain,
don't you know it'll turn on it's master, big fish in a little pond,
a black hole  goes way beyond, your recipe for disaster, 
Your like a Jezebel with authority, sing your song of certainty,
Don't forget your bible on Sunday,
Psychic dart thrower with bad aim, energy Vampire fannin' the flame,
it'll all come back to you someday,
every dog has it's day,  it's comin' your way
Hey baby, your incognito baby, succubus incognito, succubus incognito

Incognito

Windswept Leviathan, cagey lady, you are my heroin, that's all I have so far, heh, 
                                          The Genius of the crowd
There is enough treachery, hatred violence absurdity in the average
human being to supply any given army on any given day

and the best at murder are those who preach against it
and the best at hate are those who preach love
and the best at war finally are those who preach peace

those who preach god, need god
those who preach peace do not have peace
those who preach peace do not have love

beware the preachers
beware the knowers
beware those who are always reading books
beware those who either detest poverty
or are proud of it
beware those quick to praise
for they need praise in return
beware those who are quick to censor
they are afraid of what they do not know
beware those who seek constant crowds for
they are nothing alone
beware the average man the average woman
beware their love, their love is average
seeks average

but there is genius in their hatred
there is enough genius in their hatred to kill you
to kill anybody
not wanting solitude
not understanding solitude
they will attempt to destroy anything
that differs from their own
not being able to create art
they will not understand art
they will consider their failure as creators
only as a failure of the world
not being able to love fully
they will believe your love incomplete
and then they will hate you
and their hatred will be perfect

like a shining diamond
like a knife
like a mountain
like a tiger
like hemlock

their finest art   Charles Bukowski

Mind Bender (My Head Is Spinning)

FYI there is a short version if you prefer the classic approach  this would be the album version, I put it all in the song, if you listen you can hear the clock ticking away and the Princess in her benevolent/ terrible aspects Shiva is bellowing through out, this song has so much energy playing it,  lyrics -
 Living in an electric universe,
I can see my way,
You tell me I'm just contamination, red shift expanding clay,
Purple dawn of Crea-tion
Roman gods lived in the sky,
  watching with all seeing eye,
Kronos has doomsday on his mind,
 Mars took all the pain,
So that we could see/live again,
Living in an electric universe, thunderbolts rule the sky, 2x
There are no islands in space! In fact it's in the works. Granular guitars was used for the intro,

 Advice tips to over coming a wounded Soul, most important, love yourself! Tips after lyrics, very good helped me very much. All I can say from my experience is to say all in all the experience was dreadful 
  lyrics ;
I hear the couple down below,
 beginning of the end comes up through the floor,
fighting  over nothing just to settle a score
Tearin' their love up they don't even know, reality show,
 breathe in the summer breeze, I'm lying half asleep,
while she talks and drinks, She haunts my dreams,
Don't wanna sleep force open my eyes,
another bad dream I'm losin' my mind,
My Soul is wounded, The devil you don't know is you,
Walking wounded soul,You made it so,
chorus
We loved with a love, sweeter than love,
Couldn't stay there ya, Just a figment of, My imagination,
You mistook my kindness for some kind of weakness, guess you thought that I'd always be there,
that's when you changed became all estranged,
tellin' lies ,criticize, I was  waiting, waking, suffocating, self- medicating
I couldn't believe after all this time, You were hostile I was exiled
a million miles away from my life,
Chorus
We loved with a love greater than love, coulda stayed there
ya it's just a feeling of, my soul is wounded
the devil you don't know is you,
(bridge)
chorus
We loved with a love, greater than love, now it's just a figment of my imagination
There is no hurt my dear than to grieve the loss of someone still alive,  25 steps to follow. No matter what may happen tomorrow, 

1. Cut her off completely from your life: Cut all ties

2. Accept that it's over, write a song, it feels really great to create using your pain.

3. No compromises: 

4. Mind vs feelings: Constantly get in a debate in your head when you start missing her. It’s a debate between your mind and your feelings. Start using logic. Think of 10 major problems you had with her as a girlfriend/ BF and as a person. I guarantee you, by the time you’re at reason #5, you’d be like, “WTF

5. Make a list of all the things you disliked about her. Be brutally honest

6. Make a list of all the opportunities you came across the things you could have done but couldn’t because the presence of that person somehow contributed greatly to the opposite direction

7. workout: You are dealing with self-hatred. You are partially blaming yourself. So destroy hatred by self-betterment. 

8. Appreciate Love around you: 

10. Involve your friends: Tell your friends directly that you need their help to move on. Don’t get into any emotional details. 

11. Let out your pain: Let out your pain whenever it hits

12. Stop talking about your ex: 
13. Don't do what they did and run to someone else, it never works, that's what she/ HE did, now she is doing everything she can to run from her past, but one sure way to remember something is by trying to forget

14. Reconnect with people: Reconnect with people from your past 

15. Stay engaged: Keep yourself engaged when you’re alone. 

16. Become self-sufficient: You need to realize one simple fact - in order to be complete, you don’t need another person
17. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks but yourself, get right with the universe, do good and good will follow, trust me it works.

18. He/ She is an addiction: Accept that you are an addict on this person. Like every addict on this planet, to conquer the addiction you first have to recognize and accept the disease. You have spent days and months continuously around this person and in a moment she’s/ he's gone. 
19. For when you ask why? Answer with why not? You should not need anyone to be happy, if you do then you have not arrived, but you will by staying the course.

20. No smoking or Alcohol or drugs: ok a little bit is fine

21. If they loved you they would still be there. 

22. Do  things you used to love or enjoy again, 

23. Be patient: It’s going to be a MFKR . But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, watch yourself rise from the ashes,

Knight Of Sorrows ( Tecumseh)pronounced more like   Teh-koom -theh 
silent S,  was how Native American's said it. 
Tecumseh was a Shawnee warrior chief who organized a Native American confederacy in an effort to create an autonomous Indian state and stop white settlement in the Northwest Territory (modern-day Great Lakes region). He firmly believed that all Indian tribes must settle their differences and unite to retain their lands, culture and freedom. Tecumseh led his followers against the United States in many battles and supported the British during the War of 1812. But his dream of independence ended when he was killed at the Battle of Thames, which led to the collapse of his Indian confederacy.

Early Years
Tecumseh, whose name in Shawnee means “shooting star” or “blazing comet,” was born in 1768 in the western Ohio Valley to the Shawnee chief Puckeshinwa and his wife Methoataske. After Puckeshinwa was killed at the Battle of Point Pleasant (Lord Dunsmore’s War), Methoataske migrated to Missouri with other tribe members, leaving Tecumseh and his siblings behind to be raised by their older sister Tecumapease.

Tecumapease taught Tecumseh the tenets of Shawnee culture; his older brother Cheeseekau taught him how to be a warrior. By his teenage years, Tecumseh had come to despise Americans after witnessing the atrocities they committed against the Shawnee people and their land; however, the brutal tactics some Indians used to fight the white man also horrified him.

In the late 1780s, Tecumseh participated in a series of raids on settlers, then accompanied his brother Cheeseekau and a small band of Shawnee warriors to Tennessee to join a group of Cherokee Chickamauga. After Cheeseekau was killed, Tecumseh became leader of the Shawnee band and returned to Ohio to help Chief Bluejacket battle the U.S. Army.

Treaty of Greenville
Under Bluejacket’s direction in 1791, Tecumseh led a scouting party to help defeat General Arthur St. Clair’s army at the bloody Battle of Wabash. He then fought at the Battle of Fallen Timbers on the Maumee River, where General Anthony Wayne and his army decisively defeated the Indians, and both sides signed the Treaty of Greenville which forced the Indians to forfeit much of their land in the Northwest Territory.

Tecumseh refused to sign the treaty, however, because he felt the Indians didn’t own the land they’d given up. He believed the land was shared by all Indians and could not be negotiated away. Nonetheless, Native Americans abided by the Treaty of Greenville, although white settlers and their leaders did not.

Prophetstown
 By the early 1800s, Tecumseh had settled in Ohio and was a respected leader, war chief and orator. In 1805, his younger brother Lalawethika experienced an alcohol-induced vision and declared his intent to lead Indians on a quest to reclaim their lands and culture. He changed his name to Tenskwatawa and became known as “the Prophet.”

After correctly predicting a solar eclipse in 1806, hordes of Indians from various tribes began following the Prophet. In 1808, Tecumseh and the Prophet moved their growing multi-tribal alliance to Prophetstown, near the Wabash and Tippecanoe rivers in present-day Indiana.

Battle of Tippecanoe
Tecumseh traveled far to recruit disgruntled Indians to his pan-Indian alliance. In powerful speeches, he rallied them to his cause by warning that the only way to overcome their invaders was to unite and resist the American way of life.

Wrote this when I was in my 20's many snows ago.  I was just learning how to write my feelings down. I felt like rerecording it. It has been fraught with frustration,   Guitar credit to MrRhoads442 looperman a couple of moody loops I really like.  it is where I was at that time and had my first heartbreak which is something we all have to face at one time or another. I wanted a big production feeling from it, that it is ,very hard to mix to much to work in, all in all though I feel happy with it here like this my intro n outro worked out,  The good thing that comes from sadness is an inspiration to create, to write and the knowledge I gain probably because it makes me feel better, only through adversity do we learn it seems. This song has been a challenge for me because there are so many tracks. Below is a Shake-Speare sonnet/poem that is worded much better the way of feeling love's rejection. then the lyrics.

A woman's face with Nature's own hand painted
Hast thou, the master-mistress of my passion;
A woman's gentle heart, but not acquainted
With shifting change, as is false women's fashion;
An eye more bright than theirs, less false in rolling,
Gilding the object whereupon it gazeth;
A man in hue, all 'hues' in his controlling,
Much steals men's eyes and women's souls amazeth.
And for a woman wert thou first created;
Till Nature, as she wrought thee, fell a-doting,
And by addition me of thee defeated,
By adding one thing to my purpose nothing.
But since she prick'd thee out for women's pleasure,
Mine be thy love and thy love's use their treasure. Shake-Speare. 
           Ballad to a Stranger ( a paraphrased letter that was never sent)  
Sorry for bothering you, realize your feelings changed, spent my heart lovin you in vain,
as love goes you never really gave anything, that was done by me,
You'll never know misery, loss that I suffer,your someone I don't even know, I guess your not amused with me anymore, I would crawl through broken glass baby just to be by your side,you were always constantly on my mind,
I tried to be your friend, that's only a one way street,My light has dimmed my friend,
When I saw you yesterday you were looking good, I realized were strangers in this world, Ooh baby I love you so, never let me go, never let me go
Who's that on the street they know my name, walking down this long ole dusty lane, all we can do is do our best, you'll never know what I been through, doubt you even care, when will I be free from this nightmare,
broke my back for you baby, and this is how it ends, just let me know one thing, are you happy, are you happy,
Baby our fall from grace fell in your favor, you wanted a slave, you got a stranger. I had more trouble with this than I could bargain with, to many tracks, it gave my computer fits as well. I think I have no less than 5 guitar parts depending on where the song is at. I feel it's overproduced and I will do this project over.

Ballad to a  Stranger

Pretty self explanatory, I like the earlier version better it's a tad rougher but it's got the edge I was looking for, with this song, I came out swinging full of angst I remember it well, but everything kind of gets watered down as it tightens up but I learned from it, don't back off because you might  rethink the original fire. I just wasn't the one for her, and it's okay now ,but man I was so full of angst at that time, Love is a 4 letter word and I admit complete failure  but it's alright  it's like pizza, it's not for everyone,

YOU NEVER KNEW ME AT ALL alt version

(get out a your bubble)Wake up and smell the Flowers A little country little funky little easy had a lot of fun doing it. different for me Lyrics 
What is it bout you woman, get enjoyment outa bringing me down,
 1,000- pound weight hangin' from your neck, 
only thing you do never let em see you sweat, 
then again  maybe I'm goin about it all wrong, 
cuz that's when you just try harder,
It's time to wake up and smell the flowers, 
that part of you doesn't live there anymore,
 Livin' short years disguised in long hours,
 I think it's time to start livin' for TODAY,
 Wake up and smell the Flowers, 
that part of you is gone,
carrying a torch sucks! Wake up and smell the flowers either to life on your own or, the flowers to your own funeral anything is better than that! life goes by so fast we don't notice until 5 or 10 years get behind us.Life can sometimes feel like long hours but very Short years. the choice is yours, carrying a torch around for somebody when you know there is no hope at least for the right now is just foolish. It can be like a heavy cross,  Drop it and never say never! Me talking to myself.

Wake Up And Smell The  Flowers alt version

Still, bugs in it,  working on it, have to give it the car test, Created it to jam with    Needs a good lead track, I am no lead player.  I love all that is freaky and the moon is definitely Freaky with a capital F I was thinkin' I think I have a good sound on my SG I have a little amp that just kicks.

FREAK MOON

I was not happy with the vocals on the first recording so I decided to record them over. I think it sounds better, but I will have to listen to both and compare. Things usually have to grow on me, this is a cover of a fine Bob Dylan song off his wonderful album Blood on the Tracks. I did it a bit more up tempo and added a sax to the end. Always wanted a sax solo as I really dig it. one of my favorite songs.

Big Girl Now -Cover

Only one person ever called me by that name, me mum every now and then I get something close to right, I feel maybe this is the case here, I had no idea I could do this well at this b ut 8it comes pretty natural and easy to me, but my friends musician ones tell me arranging is their toughest the method put chance into WHAT A SLOPPY MESS AT FIRST, i TWEAKED THIS PRETTY WELL AT FIRST IT SOUNDED LIKE NOISE BUT i CENTERED EVERYTHGING AROUND THE DRUMS, MY  bass method was to turn on the chord track,  set it to bass., pick out said bass for the job, insert a drum beat into the bass with chord track turned to  bass notes, chord track puts them in the right frets  quantizes it, sounds like Getty Lee, try it sometimes it comes out better than others sometimes it comes out dead solid perfect. like here, I was very fortunate for it to come out like it did. I am still impressed doing it again, all of the digital songs were recorded by me in my home Cubase 9.5 studio,  soon to maybe be 10 pro, at first Cubase was awesome, but they are from Germany, they do not always respond very timely, but they seem to have improved lately, and they have never let me down so that counts pretty good. I have a couple grand into it, but another thing, for all one gets for the money imho having used everything from free amazing audacity, pro tools, Ableton, and another that escapers me, Cubase is by far the best product, those Germans are geniuses, with all in gets for the money in increments not going from zero to 10 pro over night, going in segments is more better for learning, rewarding  better they are still improving I think I will stay, recording guitar track on old 4 track cassette instant analog then uploading for total analog feel

Jaybird's Symphony Number 1

I know ya can't be alone that long, so ya wind up with the first one you met, now your too blind to see, they're stealing everything from you,  fall right on through baby don't you do me that way, don't shy away, don't do me that way,  I'm trying to end the fall, yeah baby why'd you do that way, yeah I'm in the fog, baby don't you do my that way, I'm trying to end the fall, don't shy away,
