This song tells a story. I really enjoyed that it takes some time to explode :O Good work!

very unique vocals, great indie rock sound...great clean guitar tone

Neat little guitar melody.vocals are very good and sells it

One collective location for all my tracks.  This list will update as I complete songs, with each of the songs on the playlist added in the order recorded...as you listen, you'll hear me unwind, my recording engineering skills devolving from today, going back nearly two decades to when I recorded the first song in the list, using Cakewalk and a computer microphone wayyyyy back in 2004.

All Tracks

A new song  Enjoy  !😎
words: (translation below↓↓↓)
oly sokáig vártam       
idelent a fényre
azt hittem hogy eljön
énhozzám is végre

azt hittem hogy lesz még    
azúrkék az égbolt
selymes és lágy          
olyan  mint rég volt
chorus:
ajajjajaj ez kegyetlen vidék   
ajajjajaj itt túl sok a pribék   
dobog még a szívem           
de közel már a vég

felmásztam a létrán
és mit lát a szemem
csúf sötét felhő
ül a szíveden
csúnya sötét felhő 
a háztetők felett
beborít mindent    
elveszi  kedvedet

chorus 2x

lágy szellő fújd el,
fújd a felleget
napfény ragyogja be
az egész eget
azt dalolja már
a rigó madár
sokkal szebb nyár
és tavasz vár

translations:
I've waited for so long
For the light down below
I thought it would come
To me, you know
I thought there'd still be
A sky of azure blue
Silky and soft
Like it used to be, too

Chorus:
Oh-oh-oh-oh, this is a cruel land
Oh-oh-oh-oh, too many thugs at hand
My heart still beats
But the end is near, it seems
I climbed up the ladder
And what do I see?
An ugly dark cloud
Sits on your heart, you agree
An ugly dark cloud
Above the rooftops so high
Covers everything
Steals your joy, oh my

Chorus 2x
Gentle breeze, blow away
Blow the clouds away
Let sunlight fill
The whole sky today
The blackbird sings
A joyful melody
A brighter summer
And spring, you'll see

J'ai attendu si longtemps
Ici-bas, la lumière
J'ai cru qu'elle viendrait
Enfin, pour moi, entière
J'ai cru qu'il y aurait encore
Un ciel d'azur si pur
Soie douce et tendre
Comme avant, c'est sûr

Refrain:
Aïe, aïe, aïe, c'est un pays cruel
Aïe, aïe, aïe, ici, trop de rebelles
Mon cœur bat encore
Mais la fin est si près, il me semble
J'ai grimpé l'échelle
Et que vois-je, ensemble?
Un nuage sombre et laid
Sur ton cœur, il s'est installé
Un nuage sombre et laid
Au-dessus des toits, perché
Il recouvre tout
Te vole ta joie, c'est fait

Refrain 2x
Brise légère, envole-toi
Chasse les nuages, loin de moi
Que le soleil inonde
Le ciel, à la ronde
Le merle chante déjà
Une mélodie de joie
Un été plus beau
Et le printemps, il y a

Ajajajajj

Surreal Symphony

Upon the shrine, I lay my head
It's warm and stiff. Then comes the rain

It's happening every Monday
When the sailors issue a mayday
In these moments, all is ready 
To get things done in the old way

The storm trashes everything around
Only a tree remains steady

It's happening every Monday
When the sailors issue a mayday
In these moments, all is ready 
To get things done in the old way

In The Old Way

Josh had a grade which had John and Vic. John was a stereotypical Hollywood bully.  Josh:”he was an idiot.
Me: did you know that Vic used to give Swerlies? I didn’t even know what they were.
Swerlies are when you flush a kids head down a toilet.
Josh: he was a bigger idiot.

Then moving onto the grade below Josh which was my grade which had 006.  006 began causing teachers to cry as early as primary school in 芳草地。There was LX, a girl from HK who he tripped on the way to the blackboard. Her nose landed on the ridge of the incline and broke. So she had to go back to HK for reconstructive facial surgery. 006 tells me this story with a gleeful look on his face. Now you’re thinking he’s a sociopath. Then, he says, “that’s why I took it easy on her at 55.” I’m thinking “phew.” Then there was that time he made Starlight cry by putting his dick on her face while she was asleep. A typical day at 55 for 006 involved him coming up with new ways to trip people at lunch. A typical weekend for him involved him calling the girl with the best grades and asking her if she wanted to fuck him.  I started in class 3 which was mostly Korean. It’s the 3rd worst class out of 4. 

I learned quickly that I could tell jokes and make people laugh. We got along and they taught me swear words. The Koreans were a united front. Meaning, only them and the Mongolians ever did group stompings of people. We…the Chinese whatever…be it Chinese American or whatever or the groups that spoke English couldn’t unite to save…anything. I remember walking up the stairs one day and a group of Koreans were just kicking my friend while he was on the ground. My other friend and I just laughed at him and I asked, “what did you do to them?” For some reason I was never beat up or made fun of.

Closest was in grade 7 where the door locked and 2 Korean girls approached me. I thought I was gonna get snuffed until one of them started touching my face while the other tried removing my shirt. I just ran. Koreans all over the world: If we wanted to snuff you we’d send 10 guys and not 2 girls you moron.
So I got promoted to class 2. Was sad to leave my 2 English speaking friends in class 3. I was afraid. Class 2 was 006’s kingdom. He sat in the back and made fun of people all day long. It was the first time I had been in classes where a student had all the power. And…nothing happened to me. 10 years later, I asked him,
“Why’d you never pick on me?”
“因为你嘴太损了” (You were too snarky)
Class 2 had Starlight at the time and she went out with K, 006’s best friend. He broke up with her on Christmas. Then, he stood in front of 006’s desk and made 1 hand eat the other. “Her lips swallowed mine. It was gross.” Starlight sat a few desks to the right and overheard him and walked out the class. I remember thinking, “what an asshole.” Since, I was very much incapable of feeling sympathy for anyone save Starlight that was probably the moment I fell in love. We used to talk for hours on messenger after school.
Then onto class 1 so now it’s grade 8. I was sad to go. 006 did make me laugh all the time and I didn’t want to be stuck in a class full of nerds. I was the worst academically there and the homeroom teacher would say, “Chris. Not a single A.” What was amusing about that was the B in English. What was also amusing was during the school trip where he told the kid who was 2 years younger than all of us “to be more like Chris. People like him.” I was expecting him to tell me to be more like the other kid who was a straight A kid but the shoe never dropped. So onto what I did to kids. Miss steukenbergs English class. The teacher before her Mrs Smith gave me an A. She was firm but fair. Sent 006 out for not doing his homework. Then Miss Steukenberg showed up. 1 haiku poem each. I asked the class before it was due,”who wants their homework done for them?” Everyone said yes so I got to work changing cursive with print writing and different colors. 


Harder, Faster, Earliar

Hush 


Verse 1: 

I know it’s been a long time  

I can the hear the rain is falling on your side  

Don’t be afraid. I know I’m too far away. 



Chorus: 

Hush now, don’t you cry.   

Daddies gonna sing you a lullaby tonight 

Hush now, don’t you cry. 

Daddies gonna sing you a lullaby 

 

Verse 2: 

It’ll be alright.  I just called to say goodnight 

Imagine kisses on your cheek, me holding on to you until you’re asleep 

 

Chorus: 

Hush now, don’t you cry.   

Daddies gonna sing you a lullaby tonight 

Hush now, don’t you cry. 

Daddies gonna sing you a lullaby 

 
Bridge 1 

I can feel your pain. I can see it in your eyes. I wish I could take it away every time we say goodbye. 

Bridge 2 

But I’m a thousand miles away.   

I only see you in my dreams. 

And everything has changed.   

And we’re wishing things could have stayed the same 

But I’m a thousand miles away 

I’m a thousand miles away (Repeated) 

I’m a thousand miles away (I’m sorry – Intertwined/overlapping) (Repeated) 

I’m sorry baby.  (Repeated) 

 

Verse 3: 

Your picture on my desk.  Your voice is changing and I’m missing all the rest of you. 

But I could hardly fine the time 

I’m a mess, I’m lost, self-indulgent, and I'm blind 


 
Chorus: 

Hush now, don’t you cry.   

Daddies gonna sing you a lullaby 

Hush now, don’t you cry. 

Daddies gonna sing you a lullaby tonight

Hush

"You're Still My Baby" is a heartfelt, upbeat indie-pop ditty that celebrates a daughter’s journey from childhood to independence through the eyes of a proud (and slightly sentimental) parent. With playful lyrics, catchy rhythms, and a chorus that hits right in the feels, the song captures the bittersweet joy of watching your little one grow up—while never quite letting go of who they were to you. Perfect for parents, dance floors, and anyone who's ever whispered, "you’ll always be my baby."

It Was Always You
Daughter:  dm, bfm, fM, cM

Verse 1 – finger picked first half, adding in strumming second half for the build
Yeah, I’d have done anything, I did everything for you
But I was lost in a dream, I just couldn’t see the truth 
Emotions are hell, I’d throw a ball in your honor, just to dance with you tonight
But you wouldn’t show, and if I knew insecurity, would I choose to believe it
To see how far we’ve fallen, I just couldn’t let you go

Pre-Chorus: bfM, fM (perhaps strings or harmonica, swelling in the space between verse and chorus - electric kicks in – power chords – kick it up even more
All I needed was you
All I ever wanted was you

Chorus: C, bfM, fM
You’ll always be the one. 
It was always you
You’ll always be the one. 

Verse 2
You stood there dancing, in the doorway, just before dawn 
And your sun was rising, inside I was dying, just trying to hang on
Along for the ride, and you needed more, than I could ever offer, I tried harder to control, been a long time coming, and years before I’d see, that the only thing in the way was me

Pre-Chorus: bfM, fM
All I needed was you
All I ever wanted was you

Chorus: C, bfM, fM
You’ll always be the one. 
It was always you
You’ll always be the one. 

Bridge: A, bf, F, C,
The skies have darkened, as grey as I feel, I see brighter days coming, maybe just not for me
Take it for what it was, and know that you were loved
I’ll take it for what I know, I just wasn’t enough
SOLO?




Verse 3
I replay you in my mind, from the moment, that we met
Alone on a park bench, by the river, where you sat
And here I sit now, the image etched in my brain, from your first smile, until you walked away
I know life goes on, believe me I’ve tried, still getting burned by this fire inside.


Pre-Chorus: bfM, fM
All I needed was you
All I ever wanted was you

Chorus: C, bfM, fM
You’ll always be the one. 
It was always you
You’ll always be the one.

It Was Always You

Depression

Verse 1: F#/A > E/A > D/A > C#/A
Numb, how I feel?  So lost within this fog.  Withdrawn, too hard to cope
And time, eats away, at my brain, till I’m just a hollow shell

Pre-Chorus: B > A > G
This weight, this burden I protect
All the voices in my mind, driving me toward suicide

Chorus: B > A > G
Depression – this pressure
Depression – Depression

Verse 2
Alone, my fatigue?  When the color in my eyes, gives way to my disguise
These lies, I tell myself, are losing their effect, consumed by my regrets
                                                                                                                                                                                       
Pre-Chorus
This pain, thickens in my veins
This monster in my mind, I’ve nowhere left to hide

Chorus
Depression – this pressure
Depression – Depression

Bridge:  em > BM > CM > GM > F#M (4)
A black cloud is following me, it swallows me whole, invades my sleep, only one way it lets me go
Isolate myself from everything, the only pleasure in my life, comes from getting high, the only way I know to get by
< SOLO: B > A > G >

Verse 3
Goodbye.  All the fear, these whispers telling me, only one way to be free
To see, to escape, quick and painless sounds so nice, hand full of pills to say goodbye

Pre-Chorus
This waste, my mother on my mind
Drowning in a river of tears, so ashamed to leave her here

Chorus x2
Depression – this pressure
Depression – Depression

I’ve got to get me out of here 
It’s time to let me go 
Place this noose around my neck
As all these pills go down my throat 
I just take another drink
And I’m drifting off to sleep
It’s time to say goodbye 
Please just let me die
Please let me go

I see you in my reflection, the rest I hardly recognize
Each day a chance for my redemption, my only hope to see you smile
Verse 3b
So here I stand, embrace the morning, a sip of coffee for my soul
I feel your hand grab on to mine, and I’m filled with joy, yeah, here we go, yeah here we g

New Songs of Love and Morning Light

Take Me

Verse 1:
Take me with you, I’ll leave it all behind
Disposable kingdom, I’ll burn it down tonight
There’s nothing left for me, here, without you in my life
Without, you are my life

Pre-Chorus:
Our souls, forever intertwined
You are the only thing that’s real

Chorus
I’m trapped inside my mind
Drowning in my lies, your shadow draws the line
I don’t have what it takes to say goodbye

Verse 2:
Take me with you, I’ll wait eternity
My paper heart, the holes you’ve ripped in me
I’m lost unto the wind
Forgiveness not forget
Do you ever think of me, am I alone in this illusion

Pre-Chorus
Our souls, continue to unwind
Were you, ever really mine

Chorus
I’m trapped inside my mind
Drowning in my lies, your shadow draws the line
I don’t have what it takes to say goodbye

Take Me

Love Light Shine V3

Here With Me 

Verse 1: Guitar - G > em > C > D | Mando – D > C# minor 7th chord 

What can I do, what can I say, we just want to go out and play 

In the park, in the yard, though our hearts are mighty scarred 

I’m just a boy, you’re just a girl, spinning round on the tilt-a-whirl 

Round and round and round we go, where we’ll land no one knows 

 

Chorus: am7 > Aadd9 | G > A 

Life is just a blur it seems, but you’re standing next to me 

We can get through anything 

Be here now, be here with me 

 

Between: G > em G > em > G > em > G > em 

 

Verse 2: G > em > C > D 

What can I do, what can I say, I know nothing stays the same 

Under this moon, under these stars, long as we can, and just as far 

I’m just a girl, you’re just a boy, hand in hand, hang on to the joy 

Day by day, the years go by, all this time just to say goodbye. 

 

Chorus: am7 > Aadd9 

Life is just a blur it seems, but you’re standing next to me 

We can get through anything 

Be here now, be here with me 

 

Instrumental Bridge: (Stays on G chord framing) G > B > C > B > am (repeat 4x w/ swelling melodic harmonies heavy in reverb) 

 

Between: G > em G > em > G > em > G > em 

 

Verse 3: G > em > C > D 

What did Dad do, what did Mom say, stay young, be kind, choose love, go play 

It’s a crazy world and that’s okay, the two of you make it a better place 

The day will come when we’ll be gone, side-by-side we know that you’ll be strong 

Don’t let the time pull you away, best friends, you and I, our family stays 

  

Chorus: am7 > Aadd9 

Life is just a blur it seems, but you’re standing next to me 

We can get through anything 

Be here now, be here with me 

 

Between: G > em G > em > G > em > G > em
