Lyrics
Verse 1
Old man, hold my hand
and tell me a story 
of a boy, and all the joy 
Yeah….

Chorus 1
Walking down the street 
You’re so out of reach
and everyone passes by
with stars in their eyes

Verse 2
Sitting at the lake
Watching the waves crash in
Come on hold my hand
One more time
Old man, hold my hand
and tell me one more story
when you were a boy 

Chorus 2
Walking down the street
You seem so out of reach
Come take my hand 
Try to understand
Walking down the street
You seem so out of reach

Outro
You seem so out of reach
Please come take my hand 
And try to understand 
Stars in your eyes
You’re so out of reach
Stars in your eyes
And no one can be reached
Stars in your eyes 
Try to understand

"Desert of Time"

And every day feels the same like this
And every night feels the same like that
And every time feels the same again


ah ah I feel so lost 
I feel lost 
hey...

And every day I feel the same like you
And every night I feel like nothing is true
And every time, I feel I did this again

ah ah I feel so lost now
I feel lost
hey hey...

And every day feels like this ah
And every night feels like that ah
And every time feels the same again ah

ahh I feel so lost now
I feel lost now
I feel lost 
hey hey..
I feel lost 

And every day feels the same I know ah
And every night feels the same ah right now

I feel so lost now
I feel lost this time oh yeah
so lost
I feel lost 
ah hey 
I feel so lost , I feel lost 
right now

Ever wonder if intelligent life from other planets will ever visit us? And if so, would they enjoy some Prog Sci-fi/Jazz/Rock? Me neither, but that's what this song decided it wanted to be.
I also made a fun video to go with it -

Slow laid back mood for my new song! Thank you to the very lovely Sander for mastering this for me.  😊🎶❤️🎼🎤🎧🎹

THE NIGHT IS YOUNG

This is the second song going back in time.

The year 2017 was not a musically productive year for me.

It was difficult for me to compose something decent, from my point of view, of course.

The songs they were thinking of were beyond my ability and knowledge to make music and that was frustrating for me. Today I have some sketches from that time that I have not developed yet.

However, I did my first song where I combined piano and electronics in a way that I have unconsciously and slowly developed to this day.

This song is called "Hurted in silence", which was released in 2018, but performed in late 2017.

Although it is dynamic and has a certain rhythm, it really is sad and dramatic. I draw on memories and experiences of people I met who taught me how cruel some people can be to others for no reason, just for the sake of feeling superior, when in reality we all have abilities that make us unique and worth knowing and respecting. .

It is possible that he was thinking of helpless people. I have a close case that will affect me my whole life.

Hurted in silence.

Hurted in silence (Last revision)

Well. There is alot to tell about this one and i fear i could write a book, but i spare you. Haha! I've discovered the Japan Synth Pioneer Jun Fukamachi quite some time ago and while doing so, i digged every possible Album on Youtube and leeched this craft. Also had the chance to buy me a few CD's, as there are not so much out there.... rare jewels ... :)

I simply love him. His diversity and ingenousness is something i really really set as a high mark for myself. As long as i can "recall", there was music in my life and even as a child and later on as young and old teenager i loved to go fully emotional with music (like listening to Seal - Kiss from a Rose when a girl broke up with me back then, or discovering ACDC's Back in Black feeling like a little Rocker.... Nirvana and the tragedy when i heard that "Kurtl", as we would could his first name in German, just put a (wtf) shotgun in his head and pulled the trigger... )

Later on i was a pure Metalbanger and even while being one, i was listening to all of the Subgenres, and liked them, no pure black, death, trash, power, or whatsoever,...... This is something i think was always there due to being libra zodiac sign... balance... I became older and suddenly metal was not enough... so i digged everything and no matter if its eletronic, oldschool rock, experimental, classic, ambient, jazz, blues, .... and so on.... i love the variety and this brings me to all of YOU.

I had tons of cds, the napster era , the youtube extreme "following the youtube algorythm into crazy places" thing, i was in wacken as young metalbanger, listening to classic concerts, going to musicals and even watching an opera.... diversityyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..... and now... soundcloud!!! I cannot get enough and if there would be a risk of getting a burnout from listening to all of you, id be the first, for real.

Now the song. I finished it before i even took the andrew huang online course and i am fking happy to exactly release it with the skills i had back then and i dont want to brag ... but i really cant tell you people what struck me back then... maybe this immense jun fukamachi listening and discovering alot of people on here, on the cloud, which already influences me ALOT.

I would not be at the place where i am right now, without YOU and so i dedicate Gate 138 to all of YOU. This piece is LOVE and FUN, and CRAZY and im putting a few words in CAPSLOCK, just because i CAN. HHAAHAHA.

The story behind this cover is a complete different one to tell and please dont be too hard on me because this text is already huuuuuuuuge and long! So finished the piece and i had this picture in my head. There was simply nothing i could get on the web to build it with my graphic skills, neither (not yet lol) am i able to draw it myself, so i checkt out Fiverr and looked for a special and unique artist with his very own style.... and i found him!!

John Bucknall. A young very talented artist from UK. He has as a very unique mindset and it took way longer than i wanted to... he was not very fast, but no complains here. The whole process from zero to the finished cover was just nothing i ever experienced before, and i am really happy that i did choose him and that he exactly managed to draw this stuff in his own style, but presenting that track in the way i wanted it to be with visuals. (btw we are both on the picture to discover..... heheh). You can find him here -> https://www.instagram.com/johnbucknallart

The story behind this is quite simple. You could transform the situation to any other stressed and crazy thing going on in your life. There is this little android guy and he is freaking out because he is about to miss his shuttle... he worked hard and is always flying around on business trips and hell yeah... life really treats him not so nice... haha. I feel really with him and wished he would catch the shuttle but yeah... whatever. 

Commander Fullyard out.

Gate 138

Mary , Queen of Scots (8 December 1542 – 8 February 1587), also known as Mary Stuart, queen of Scotland (1542–67) and queen consort of France (1559–60). Her unwise marital and political actions provoked rebellion among the Scottish nobles, forcing her to flee to England, where she was eventually beheaded as a Roman Catholic threat to the English.
The scene to the soundtrack:
In the May sunshine, Mary and her 2nd husband Lord Darnley her cousin went to ride to the Scottish
woodlands.It all seemed like a dream, the wild ride, the strange smells and sounds.
They should have a race. Mary loved to ride and to ride fast. A horn sounded, it notes oddly out of
place where no hunters were.

Too close to home is the second track to be taken from my elements e.p and solo project 
To overcome darkness and isolation we have to reset our-selfs  from within and find the light its humanity against the elements but nature will always find a way and win [Jim mystic manser nov 2020]
lyrics 
The pressure cookers boiling and we got to close to home
 society has been spoiling all the things we loved and known 
locked down and now you say your missing having fun
just a way of nature telling you shes done
is it me ? looking too a grey and empty sea
is it you ? doesnt have a clue what we supposed to do
and now its all to close to home
they say your better off alone 
and i keep running from the storms 
to find a place thats safe and warm

put my arms and legs into the rain and in the air
frustrated travellers you arent going anywhere
just a slice of fiction now its getting hard to laugh
like a faded actor who hides an autograpth
is it us? making to much fuss to get from A to B
or is it me living in this life of novel mysteries

Too close to home

Too Close To Home

Overwhelmed By the Blues

Au revoir M Le President
Au revoir et bon nuit
Vous n'avez pas la notre sympathie

Au revoir,  Nous sommes désolés 
Le puissant babouin, il a trompé
Overwhelmed by the Blues

You can't bring yourself to hear the bad news
No one taught you how to lose
Overwhelmed by the Blues

Not enough crosses - You didn't win
Far too comfortable  in your skin

Without your clothes now - We all see
You're a nought, a nothing  - History is what you are
The lame duck,  President Provisoire

Hero to zero in the blink of an eye
Not a tear to be shed as we wave you goodbye
Overwhelmed by the Blues

Au revoir, M  Le President
Au revoir et bon nuit
Overwhelmed by the Blues

Allez Maintenant!   Go find a wiper
One of your goons will change your diaper
You don't get no sympathy

Au revoir,  M Le President
