You've got that extra special something that an instrumental needs. Just gorgeous and so engaging with its warmth and charm. Great job Johnny

you handle this morning sweetness with grace and positive attitude , well done my Irish friend Johnny :-)))

still my favorite instrumental. awesome track.

The lyrics for this song were inspired by another song Gina did - https://soundcloud.com/gina-graham/paper-planes
And thusly she mused - What if you made up with a friend (after a fight?) by throwing them a paper plane .... no words used....And it could be done out of the blue, unexpected. I think it would get a smile. 
And “yes” is often a good answer that can bring a smile also.

Do do do do do ....
I’m going to make
Someone smile today 
It’ll be in a very simple way 
Oh so light
And no mistake 
I’m going to make 
Someone smile today 

Do do do do do ...
I’m going to make 
Someone smile today 
I’m going to tell 
Someone yes today
I’m going to be 
Someone’s high today 

Bolder than bright blue days 
Into your world
Clearer than a cool night
I’m still your girl 
Warmer than sun baked earth
Look in your eyes

You’ll be my heart pounding

Smile

Keep Me Forever

Amoeba

7am on a spring morning at Blessington Lakes in County Wicklow and all was still, suddenly i heard the most amazing sound that broke the silence, 2 amazing white swans flew out of the mist with such gracefulness and power it took my breath away,  i wrote this song to try and capture the beauty and style of these amazing birds. 
this is my fist ever instrumental . I hope you like it. Johnny

Swans in Flight

After almost 1,5 years I was finally able to release this song. It has been a long process writing och producing this one for me. It has been recorded in my appartment, I have played all the instruments by myself and have had the help of my sister with some of the vocals. Hope you enjoy :)

Lyrics:

I've come from a land of chaos and sin
looking for the land of the saints and the kings
and they asked me of my patience and time
but I could not spare them as much as a dime
fumbling in the pockets of a man who is blind
they'll save my heart for another time

and I've been walking with that marching band
where the water runs deep where we once roamed the land
but you won't see me fall or struggle to stand
just to be touched by your rugged hand
I would cast what I owe and crawl through the sand
oh I'm tall and proud with that marching band

and on these cities dirty streets
where the queen dared not set her feet
there my broken body creeps
by the house where only a wise man would sleep
and the angels above do they know how it stings
cause I can't seem to here just what they have to sing

I've come from a land of chaos and sin
looking for the land of the saints and the kings
now these towns and stations all seem the same to me
their memories of the things that brought me to my knees
where my fathers would walk until their feet would bleed 
oh I'm looking for the land of the plow and the seed

The Promised Land

This is my Covid Project.
Up until recently I reckon I was the only person on the planet not to have experienced the dreaded virus!
Anyway, I finally caught it while trying to record this song. All fairly mild but it lingered a while, and affected my voice a bit. 
This song has been knocking around for so long now I haven't the heart to do any more re-recording :) So ........ up it goes.
PS all better now ....... eventually!

Lyrics

We’re at the appointment
It’s a Saturday morning
It’s not that important
It’s not like I’m dying
As the man takes me through
what I need to know
I look over to you
You raise your eyebrows

Cos you said

If you want me to be there
I will be there
If you need me to be there
I will be there

We go on a trip
we’d rather not go
maybe I don’t mind
as much as you do
But you come along
and you make them laugh
They are glad that you’re there
They feel better about us

Cos you said

If you want me to be there
I will be there
If you need me to be there
I will be there
(repeat)

And we don’t mind feasting on scraps
Cos the scraps are all we got
You can’t always say yes
so I am careful when I ask
We found a way to make it through
a path we can both hold to
And at the end of every day
You will come home to me
And at the end of every day
You will come home to me

We’re at the appointment
it’s a week day morning
It’s not that important
It’s not like you’re dying
Then the man says your name
Calls you out of the room
And now I’m alone
I feel my eyes close

Cos I said

If you want me to be there
I will be there
If you need me to be there
I will be there
(repeat)

Be There

Lyrics by Sarah Lettes

Lyrics:
I wanna climb
To the bottom of a song
And scrape up all the feeling

I wanna fly
To the edge of every prayer
An watch those words start healing

Sorrow grows on sorrow
Like moss grows on a stone
Still I roll on
Hope tomorrow
Tomorrow I’ll be home
Someday I’ll be home
I hope someday I’ll be home

I wanna crawl
Into the space between the lines
And know just what you’re thinkin

I wanna hold
Your heart right where it is
And keep that thing from sinkin

I wanna look all my fears right in the face
And shake all their cold hands

I wanna spin
The world just like a top
And see just where my life lands

Sorrow grows on sorrow
Like moss grows on a stone
Still I roll on
Hopin tomorrow
Tomorrow I’ll be home
Someday I’ll be home
Someday I’ll be home

Ptolemaic System

Lyrics:
It's clockwork, the way you change.
As soon as I catch my breath.
It's puzzling how you behave,
Before you drain energy.
Get your everything,
Your violence and your greed.
It's clockwork, a ticking bomb.
You think you hold us all,
in your palm.
~Filled with evil, You burn down life.
~Out with your message and in with your knife.
It's clockwork, the way you change.
You rearrange before you drain.
Every mouth is dry,
You will not share.
You'd rather die.
It's clockwork, They'll bury you.
We'll be right there, laughing at you.
You're zero and we're all one.
We always know where you'll run.
~You're evil,
~They say we are kin.
~You burn down all life.
~You stick your knife in.
But it's clockwork, the way you'll die.

Clockwork

Lyrics:
I can see it
Can’t quite believe it
As the mist rains down on me
I can feel it
My skin is peeling
Screaming out in agony

Hey, yeah, yeah
The end is coming too soon
Though we try, it’s all lies
There is nothing but doom
Close the blinds, seal the doors
But it fills up the room
Blistered lungs, melting flesh
No one’s immune

Hold in my last breath
As I fight off death
An exercise in futility
Hands on my mouth now
Hoping that somehow
You will hear my final plea

My mind is racing
Not yet embracing
That this end will set me free
Nothing to do now
My body breaks down
Such a pointless destiny

Final Plea

TRITIUM

I am a singer/songwriter from Ireland loving SoundCloud and the ability to be able to put my songs up here for people to listen to and comment and to be able to collaborate with other musicians around the world is really amazing. Loving the technology that makes all this home recording and sharing possible and  i am totally knocked out by the talent out there it is frightening and brilliant and i am in awe and very happy to be part of this amazing forum.
