Another beam of light sailing through eternity

Nice work George, this has a sort of Beatlesy feel to me.

dif·frac·tion
diˈfrakSHən/
noun
noun: diffraction; plural noun: diffractions
the process by which a beam of light or other system of waves is spread out as a result of passing through a narrow aperture or across an edge, typically accompanied by interference between the wave forms produced.

This is a song I wrote about a month ago, and it features my friend Igor Garcia on violin. The title was the result of combining a scientific word (diffraction) with a generic one (love), and the metaphor that therefore got created. I wrote all the music and lyrics and recorded guitars, pianos, bass, MIDI drums and vocals. I hope you enjoy it. Picture taken and edited by me.

Lyrics:

"Diffracted love
When you felt that it was over, it was too late
In their newness the old days felt fraught
Although everything's meant to decay 
Light shone through

Diffracted love
And you chose dwelling into your solace
And you lied to yourself, "it's enough"
Though you kept losing all but your loss
The sound spoke through to you

Love comes in through the blinds
Night-time camouflage in the dark 
Hypothetical disguise
Off you go

Love comes in through the blinds
Lonesome lullaby in the sky
Hypothetical disguise

Diffracted love
When you learned how to feel it was too late
And it seemed as the good days would last
Although everything's meant to decay
Love slipped through again"

Morning - Beck [Cover]

John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats recorded this, and I'm suddenly regretting that I didn't ask him for his story ideas earllier.

LYRICS
Mr. Tillman good to see you again 
there’s a few outstanding charges just before we check you in 
let’s see here, you left your passport in the mini fridge and a message with the desk says here the picture isn’t his 
and oh just a reminder about our policy don’t leave your mattress in the rain if you sleep on the balcony 
OK, did you and your guests have a pleasant stay? what a beautiful tattoo that young man had on his face 
oh, will you need a driver out to Philly? 
Jason Isbell’s here as well and he seemed a little worried about you 

I’m feeling good, damn, I’m feeling so fine 
I'm living on a cloud above an island in my mind 
oh baby, don’t be alarmed this is just my vibe 
no need to walk around no it’s not too bad to climb 

Mr. Tillman for the seventh time we have no knowledge of a film that is being shot outside 
those aren't extras in a movie, they're our clientele 
no, they aren’t running lines and they aren’t exactly thrilled 
would you like a regalo on the patio? is there someone we can call? perhaps you shouldn’t drink alone?

God's Favorite Customer

Mr. Tillman

"Aramara" nace cuando encuentro "Tu Lindo Andar" de Los Molotes (feat. Gerardo Tamez, Ernesto Anaya, y Diego Ávila). Es una canción preciosa (escúchala aquí: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GvBZ9Bo9Uo)! Fue de las primeras veces que uso música de otras personas para inspirar piezas propias, ya sea sampleando partes o tal cual remixes. Es un proceso extraño, pero muy disfrutable! Gracias, Molotes, por hacer música tan chingona <3

De ahí, "Aramara" tomó su propio camino. Sim embargo, hay una constante fundamental. Ambas piezas transmiten, hasta donde yo veo, un profundo amor que inspira movimiento, descubrimiento y aventura. Cada una a su modo. Últimamente he pensado cuántos pensamientos y actitudes en común tenemos todos los humanos. También es loco pensar que cada quién tiene su única y sutil variación de la realidad. Disfruten su camino, y acompáñense de quienes les ayuden a apreciar las sutilezas. Anden con quienes les lleven a los lugares más mágicos.

I see faces and traces of home
Back in New York City

So you think I'm a tough kid, is that what you heard?
Well, I like to see some action and it gets into my blood
They call me the trail blazer, Rael electric razor
I'm the pitcher in the chain gang, we don't believe in pain

'Cos we're only as strong
'Cos we're only as strong
As the weakest link in the chain

Let me out of Pontiac when I was just seventeen
I had to get it out of me
If you know what I mean, what I mean

You say, I must be crazy, 'cos I don't care who I hit, who I hit
But I know it's me that's hitting out, and I'm, I'm not full of shit
I don't care who I hurt, I don't care who I do wrong
This is your mess, I'm stuck in, I really don't belong

When I take out my bottle filled up high with gasoline
You can tell by the night fires
Where Rael has been, has been

As I cuddled the porcupine
He said, I had none to blame, but me
Held my heart, deep in hair
Time to shave, shave it off, it off

No time for romantic escape
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape, no
No time for romantic escape
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape, no
No time for romantic escape
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape, no
Off we go, off we go, off we go, off we go

You're sitting in your comfort, you don't believe I'm real
You cannot buy protection from the way that I feel
Your progressive hypocrites hand out their trash
But it was mine in the first place, so I'll burn it to ash

And I've tasted all the strongest meats
And laid them down on colored sheets
Laid them down on colored sheets

Who needs illusion of love and affection
When you're out walking in the streets
With your mainline connection, connection

As I cuddle the porcupine
He said, I had none to blame, but me
Held my heart, deep in hair
Time to shave, shave it off, it off

No time for romantic escape
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape, no
No time for romantic escape
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape, no
No time for romantic escape
When your fluffy heart is ready for rape
No time
