This ones For Hannah

As We Grow Old

This was written in South Africa in 1987, a few years before the release of Nelson Mandela - really digging into the archives here! It was one of a handful of songs co-written with Pravinand (@johnny-minstrel). I had the first verse and an inkling of a melody, and Pravinand finished it off. We were very chuffed by the end result. Hope you like it.

The Prisoner (Peters/Maharaj)

The empty space he feared
Was fixed between his ears
To live is but to bear
The scourge of twilight years
He lost the strength to fight
He lost the will to live
For all that was his right
They took away from him

He cannot move his arms
The iron weighs him down
His feet, they cannot dance
He feels no joyful sound
He alone must grieve
The toll of passing years
He alone must feel
The loneliness and fears

His eyes reflect the pain
A man should never bear
How long will he sustain
To hurt for what is fair
And in the dark he prays
No one hears his heart
Except the one who made
Man from dust and blood

The Prisoner

Stonerjazz, Uziel, and me have joined forces once again for another adventure in our fantastical concept album universe 'the land of Zed'! This time we are also joined by a new collaborator, Zed a.k.a. Francesca from Italy. It is just coincidence/synchronicity that her name is the same as the title of this series, but after crossing paths on soundcloud and listening to her music, we thought she would be a good fit!

The lyrics for this one pick up on a thread of the story that we left hanging at the end of episode 2, 'Johnny and the Holy Din' ... but there are call-backs to nearly all the other songs in the series too if you listen closely.

Check out the whole story (so far) here: soundcloud.com/tea_are_sea/sets/land-of-the-zed

Lyrics:

Through some inexplicable and somewhat puzzling magical circummstance beyond understanding as we know it; an opening opened amongst the craigs and mists and the protruberances high in the mountains of southern Zed.. And out of the dank and dark and stink of the stank stepped a warrior so fine with a golden accordian that did shine like the sun.

And the musicians all trapped in the sky screamed and they cried for they had lost all their hope and their mojo was gone and they were prepared to die. They were prepared to die..

So Johnny sat down on the ledge in front of the cave so incredibly brave with legs dangling in space and began to play a tune so sweets that even the red parrots and monkeys started to cry, and Roy the despicable despot was Shaken to his shoes and said: 

"Hey Johnny, can you play me some Blues??"

All of Zed did head for the byways that led to the mountains that day.. The Azzure eyed twits and all of their brats, the crows in their leathers with beads in their feathers, the Rats in their custom made chevys from mars. Though sadly the Trout had to stay but needless to say, there was a grand party that day when twenty two hundred entered that cave with visions of home, songs in their brains, and hopes in their hearts...And No one suspected the Evil that lay deep in the guts of the southern mountains of Zed..

WE ARE ONE**Cecilia & Ricø **

Return to simple being

I can't believe it
Can I really trust my ears
Whenever you talk to me
I am filled with fear

I feel your words
But not what they mean
The moment they reach me
They're no longer clean 

(oh baby oh baby)

I jump to conclusions
Get carried away
By what I am used to
But not what you say

If I could switch it off
And use my brain
To listen to your message 
And not feel the pain 

(oh baby oh baby)

My reflex does hurt you
That's not what I mean
It all gets distorted
When love should be seen

Clarity
