Reunion

telephone the twilite zone and check the mists aswirling 
and see if they have got a line on a fella named rod serling.
set him down and warm his bones and enquire so politely
about his health and what he sees in the zone on TV nightly
reruns reruns reruns, ozzie desi lucy, beaver follows sky king
so much time who can be choosy
chorus
black and white, no blue no red,
there’s no color in the zone when you’re dead
black and white, no yellow no green
we all live forever on the silver screen.

press the button, change the channel, what is real distinguished panel
doctors lawyers cops and robbers, cowboys indians knowing fathers
endless talk show sitcom movie, of your fate it does behoove me
to forewarn you, to advise, less your demise should surprise
no hot flames no sulphur pits, repeats are the worst of it.
chorus 
black and white, not blue no red,
there’s no color in the zone when you’re dead
black and white, no yellow no green
the dead live forever on the TV screen.
they’re timeless lights and shadow
live forever though they’re cancelled
change the station change the view
i think they died from deja vu.

4. Paddy Brings Peace To My World  - my other grandfather was a Wellington pilot in the RAF during World War Two. He sadly died in 1943 so I never met him. His death left a huge impact on my grandmother (who never married again) and my dad. She said he was very loving and thoughtful and felt he would have been thinking about them right to the end. That’s the approach in this song. His nickname for her was Paddy. No idea why!  Mastered by RCD Audio. 
Paddy brings peace to my world 

Crete below us, and in this night sky
Angry fires around us as we fly
They want to stop us but they can’t win
Got to see the ones we love again  

Duralumin beams form a latticed frame
Carry and protect us from flack and shells and flame 
We’re just so frightened, five anxious scared young men
Just want to see our homes again 

And I pray that they’re safe
I did what I could 
Took leave and followed Anderson’s plans
and dug 3 metres into the Surrey soil 
14 pieces of aluminium, a small sump in the floor 
All I could do to protect them from this damn war 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world 

A publishers accountant , a chippie and two clerks
and a teacher all together, up here in the dark
We’re doing our duty, the best we can
But we’ve taken too much damage and I doubt we’ll land 

Radio messages, saying we’re on fire and losing height 
We’re trying to put them out, we’re all paralysed with fright
Just trying to make it back

And I’m imagining what’s next for her
She’ll be told at first that we’re missing
Maybe dead, or prisoners of war
But she’ll never give up on me 
That’s why I’m trying to make it back 
to Paddy 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world

All the time we spent together,
we thought we'd never be apart,
you tried to change me forever,
I made it clear from the start,

What went Wrong, It took so long

All i ever see, is the light shining in your eyes,
All i ever got, was a smile.
All i ever hear, is all of those white lies,
I think you made it clear.

I always thought you was so special,
We had good times and bad.
You wanted me to settle,
There were times i made you mad.

What went Wrong, It took so long

All i ever see, is the light shining in your eyes,
All i ever got, was a smile.
All i ever hear, is all of those white lies,
I think you made it clear.

White Lies (W/Lyrics)

A classic guitar track. Theme and performance - LeoMReznik.                                           
      This time I decided to record something in the traditional classical style. This winter is still causing exactly such feelings... Some of you, my friends, may like this simple composition. I'll be glad to.

Winter Adagio

Bataille des mots crescendo

Bataille des mots crescendo (Feat Bro.BAND)

Verse 1I walked down to the old dirt road,
Lost in the night, with you On  my  mind 
The city lights were shining bright,
But my soul was searching for a different light.

[Chorus]
Oh, the neon lights of Jesus, shining through the darkest night,
A warm and glowing promise, His love will make it right.
No matter where you're running, no matter where you've been,
The neon lights of Jesus will lead you home again.

[Verse 2]
I’ve chased the dreams that left me dry,
Whiskey nights and alibi lies.
But in the glow of mercy’s grace,
I saw the light that never fades.

[Chorus]
Oh, the neon lights of Jesus, shining through the darkest night,
A warm and glowing promise, His love will make it right.
No matter where you're running, no matter where you've been,
The neon lights of Jesus will lead you home again.

[Bridge]
A cross that shines down every street,
Calling sinners, setting free.
Not a bar sign, not a show—
Just a love that always glows.

[Chorus]
Oh, the neon lights of Jesus, shining through the darkest night,
A warm and glowing promise, His love will make it right.
No matter where you're running, no matter where you've been,
The neon lights of Jesus will lead you home again.

[Outro]
So if you're lost and feeling low,
Lift your eyes, let His love show.
Through the night, through the pain,
His neon light will shine again

"Punctuality" [P.MetzMusic] by SAIIINT

Indépendant artist, author and composer, my songs are not all reflection of my life, but influenced by the life around me, pianist since a long time, but time has made me have to adapt to compose songs, so I also started playing drums, bass and guitar, easier to write beats,
All my compositions are recorded in my home studio. MAO/DAW.
I sing on some songs, but I prefer to let my friends dress my creations, I don't like my duck voice🤣, so if as a singer you want to collaborate with me, I have lots of instrumental pieces that are just waiting to be finished with a beautiful male or female voice....i’m open for collaborations 👍, just send me message😉
