This track starts with a thumping tonal acid house bassline and is the backbone of the entire track. Magical elements of wind didgeridoo, lactic acidic twisting, and large brass horn synths illustrate a backdrop. Giant elemental fans fly by during techno transitions, highlighting a danceable groove beat with a blue edge sequencer.

The Leaking Pan

Try to comprehend your life
There’s something in my mind
An overwhelming sense of fear
I wish I could describe

And I’m in a rut
Stuck like a rat in a cage 
But I won’t give up
No I won’t give up at this stage

Broken thoughts and twisted lines
All jumbled up inside
There must be some peace to find
It’s no-one’s path but mine 

And I’m in a rut
Stuck like a rat in a cage 
But I won’t give up
No I won’t give up at this stage

We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher
We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher

And I’m in a rut
Stuck like a rat in a cage 
But I won’t give up
No I won’t give up at this stage

We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher
We’re forged in fire
Made a path that takes us higher

Ways to Go

Love Me

Heartbreaker From Tennessee

I'm slipping away 

I'm slipping away

I'm slipping away

To the dark....

The voices whisper

The shadows... they play

I'm trapped in a world that's fading away

I try to remember of what then

I used to be

But the memory's blurred

Like a distant melody

Uh huh!

Cause I'm slipping away

Into the dark

My mind's a maze and I'm loosing my spark

I'm chasing the highs but the lows are so real I'm loosing my grip and I'm starting 

To feel low...

Oh no!

Maybe someday I'll find my way back

To the world that's real

And to a mind... that's... intact

But until then I'm lost in space

A prisoner of my own addictive ways

I'm slipping away... into the dark

My mind's a maze and

I'm loosing my way to my

Addictive ways 



Slipping Away to Addictive Ways

Slipping Away

This is a love song. A song that was brought to life from a broken heart. We've all been there...no?
I hope you enjoy! ;)

LYRICS(SPANISH) 
Que de malo en mi, no siento nada, 
no siento nada desde que te fuiste, no siento nada

Dos querpos en uno, tu piel tus ohos tus lavios, 
mi alma sangra, mia alma sangra cada vez que te requerda
extraño, la intimidad, extraño la intimidad

Mi alma sangra mi alma sangra cada vez que te requerda
extraño, extraño lo que tuvimos huntos 
Dos querpos en uno, tu piel tus ohos tus lavios 
Lo que tuvimos huntos,
No siento nada…

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

What's wrong with me, I don't feel anything, 
I haven't felt since you left, I haven't felt anything

Two bodies in one, your skin, your eyes, your lips, 
my soul bleeds, my soul bleeds every time I remember you
I miss the intimacy, I miss the intimacy

My soul bleeds, my soul bleeds every time I remember you
I miss, I miss being together with you
Two bodies in one, your skin, your eyes, your lips 
What we had together,
I don't feel anything...

Nada

I cry for the world

I'm not sleeping so well these days

This world's on fire

And it's got me so worried


I see.... Burning Homes

Burning Trees

Burning Lies

And our Burning Fate


Is it possible...possible

Is it possible...Is it possible

Come On!


Fight as a human race

To find solutions that respect 

And embrase our differences


Build Bridges Not Walls

Make Love and Not War


Is is is is is it possible


It is possible

If you stand for what's right

It is possible

If we challenge the greedy

New order reiche

It is possible

If we do the right thing

Stand Strong

Oppose who's strings are being pulled

When everything is going wrong


I'm tired of being their puppet

Aren't you!


Make love and not war

We can all be one

Knowing this enlightenment

Enjoy life and come in pure consciousness

Unified field of all matter


Everything is possible

If you just decide you want to do it

Everything is possible

Come and join the fight

Everything is possible

Come on my friend

Consciousness unite

To become one tonight



It Is Possible

There was a scientist, he invented a time machine
he was looking to go back to those days wen life was not nearly so complex
He got inside, he pushed the button but his calculations were wrong
He ended up in the Juriasic era and was eaten by a T-Rex

Sometimes things don't turn out quite the way you expected
Sometmes you just gotta jump before all the dots are connected

Sometimes the answer's right in front of your snout
Sometimes you just gotta let those bottled feelings come out
Sometimes the truth is there but you just don't want to see it
Sometimes you gotta open up your mind and make a decision to free it

There was a prince who had royal blood and he was destined to become king and he wasn't very interested in taking on that job
One day he just got on his horse and he rode away and he never came back
he assumed a new identity and became a working class slob

Sometimes things don't turn out quite the way you expected
Sometmes you just gotta jump before all the dots are connected

Sometimes the answer's right in front of your snout
Sometimes you just gotta let those bottled feelings come out
Sometimes the truth is there but you just don't want to see it
Sometimes you gotta open up your mind and make a decision to free it

Sometimes you gotta step out of the box and see which way the wind is blowing. Head in the opposite direction and convince yourself to get going
Sometimes you gotta march to a brand new beat. Sometimes you gotta make a U-turn and head down a different street

Sometimes the answer's right in front of your snout
Sometimes you just gotta let those bottled feelings come out
Sometimes the truth is there but you just don't want to see it
Sometimes you gotta open up your mind and make a decision to free it

I need to put my headphones on

The voices are so loud...

I feel so much safer when I'm locked in my     closet 'cause I'm never good...

It's a real pain to be lost in my brain

I'm suddenly gone but then I'm back 

But not the same


They said there is something wrong with me

I'm suddenely gone then I come back but I'm not the same,oh my lord

They tell me I want to be a good girl

But I don't know how


They tell me I'm bad 'n to take my pills

But I don't

Cause I wanna be wild and go to hell

...Oh yeah


The voices tell me what to think

But it's sending chills down my spine


You know I'm not like everybody else

Peuh, Too bad for them


But mama you're so so sillIy 

I'm gonna have to make you pay

Keep the lights off and try to find me

But be quiet

Cause the voices are listening to us

Sssh....very quiet


It's really a pain

To be lost in my brain

Then I'm suddenly gone

Then even sooner back again

What is my name

What do you think

You can call me whatever you want

But I won't answer or obey

Cause it's fun

To be hiding away

To glide down on the rails

Leadin' to hell

Then there before

And I'll come up for air

The demon is watching me pull the hair out of my head and you can sit and watch and sit there and stare at the shadows on the walls

And danse to my beat and pass through the walls and go into your room and take out my knife...

And cut you up because

 'cause you're a bad mother

And now you will pay



So Skit So

Rough and ready lo-fi troubadour blues. More off-key and forlorn than usual.

Lyrics:
Oh, that bartender
He moved to his own
Sweet slow ass time
In getting back those drinks 
To feed my mainline
You asked me about my guitar
I've been far
But tonight
I am playing this bar

I could be gone soon
Maybe I could explain it to you
a little later
In my motel room?
There's a Gideon Bible
Right there in the drawer 
It's revelation about our sin
They're always gonna try to change ya
I think you're forgiven
You're  just
Welcoming a stranger

I've been far
But tonight, I am
I am playing this bar

All this joyful noise
I sing it for you
All the loneliness
And the  cacophony, too
It's my troubadour blues

My melancholy
The useless beauty
I feel like I'm  living life in another man's shoes
You asked me about my guitar
I've been far
But tonight, I am
I am playing this bar...

Hey sugar, hope you’re doing alright. I’ve been thinking about you.
Hey sugar hope you’re doing okay. Wonder what you’ve been up to.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen your face, and you had me under your spell.
We’ve both taken a quite a few trips around the sun. Hope time has treated you well.
As for me, I’m a little worse for wear, I’ve gained some weight and lost some hair
But I try to watch my diet and exercise and take care of myself. 
You’re just a memory, it would probably ruin my fantasy, if we were to meet up one day and try to rekindle that old chemistry.
Cause chemicals have an expiration date and it’s probably too late to put ourselves in
 a test tube and get that reaction going again.
Hey, sugar I’ve been thinking about you.  Do you ever think about me too.
Time passes and my memory fades and you become more beautiful
I feel like a boxer who’s past his prime and I’m looking for one last fight
Sometimes I wake up and I think about you in the dark and lonely night
Time keeps on passing and there’s not much you can do
It’s easy to look back and regret those options you didn’t pursue
You can spend your days waxing nostalgic, you can cling to your fantasy
Or you can jump in that water under the bridge and take a chance on reality
You’re just a memory, it would probably ruin my fantasy, if we were to meet up one day and try to rekindle that old chemistry.  
Cause chemicals have an expiration date and it’s probably too late to put ourselves in
 a test tube and get that reaction going again.
You’re just a memory, it would probably ruin my fantasy, but it sure would be nice to rekindle that chemistry.

All these people who claim they were abducted by alien UFO’s
They say they took them up onto the spaceship and examined them from head to toe.
Most people think those stories are made up, but what if they’re actually true
It kind of makes you wonder what motivates those aliens to do the things they do
If I ever get abducted by aliens from outer space, I think I might ask if I could hitch a ride off this crazy place. 
People who believe we couldn’t have built the pyramids without alien assistance
There’s days when I can’t find my car keys without lots of searching and persistence. 
Maybe we’re just 2 legged creatures and the earth’s an exotic alien zoo. 
And they come here on safari to see what we’re up to
If I ever get abducted by aliens from outer space, I think I might ask if I could hitch a ride off this crazy place. 
Even if they don’t consider me to be much better than a trained monkey
I could play my guitar to cheer them up whenever they feel grumpy.
They say the speed of light is as fast as you can possibly go
Maybe those aliens have access to information we don’t know
Maybe they just look at us in the same way scientists study bugs
They read the work of our most brilliant minds and they just shrug
Maybe someday if we start World War three, they’ll stop the missiles from firing
Or maybe they’ll just let us blow ourselves up because they find our behavior so tiring
Maybe someday if they think we’re ready, they’ll land a spaceship in times square
And although they’re usually naked, they’ll put on some underwear
If I ever get abducted by aliens from outer space, I think I might ask if I could hitch a ride off this crazy place. 
Even if they don’t consider me to be much better than a trained monkey
I could play my guitar to cheer them up whenever they feel grumpy.
There's days on earth when it feels like it might be kind of nice to get away
And getting abducted by aliens just might be okay.

Got the ol acoustic guitar out of the case last night. It's been awhile! Dang my fingers, powered through though, cause this song had to be guitar. Part of this song was an old rift I've had forever and it's destiny was this. Someone very dear to me wrote the lyrics and she wishes to remain unknown. This whole thing came together in a day, and it's such a good feeling. I hope you enjoy this live take I did tonight! Thanks for listening!:) Here's to my first guitar song on here! 

My Escape

The world fades to silence
The night pulls me in 
Close my eyes 
And I find you again
No time no distance 
No walls in between
Only the place
Where you're waiting for me 
In the daylight 
you're a memory 
But in the dark
You're right here with me
Oh Oh  Oh Oh 

You're my escape
When the stars start to shine
Where the past and forever
Collide in my mind
No goodbyes no heartbreak
Just you next to me 
In the place where we love 
Endlessly 
Ooo Ooo 

Your touch feels so real
Your whisper so clear
I swear you can hold me 
Like you are really here
But the morning keeps stealing 
What the night lets me keep
And I wake up 
Alone from the dream
In the daylight 
you're a memory 
But in the dark
You're right here with me 
Oh Oh Oh Oh

You're my escape
When the stars start to shine
Where the past and forever
Collide in my mind
No goodbyes no heartbreak
Just you next to me 
In the place where we love 
Endlessly
Ooo Ooo 

Maybe someday
I won't have to wake
Maybe one night 
You'll ask me to stay
Until then I'll be waiting
Eyes closed heart awake
For the moment
I find you
My escape 
Oh Oh Ohhh Oh

Hold the breath, feel the break


Leap past fear, chase what ignites,
Dreams take wing in daring flights
Kindness lifts, grudges fade
Peace is forged in choice remade

Live it true, storm or gleam
Shape your fate, build your dream
Love, learn, let wisdom rise
Path is yours beneath the skies 
 
Time runs fast, seize the day,  
Laugh through life, come what may,  
Speak your heart, hear them out,  
Work with fire, rest from doubt.  

Own your scars, hold friends near  
Health’s your gold, growth your cheer 
Fail, then soar, give your all
Curiosity breaks the fall

Live it true, storm or gleam 
Shape your fate, build your dream 
Love, learn, let wisdom rise
Path is yours beneath the skies

Doubt’s a ghost, seek the spark  
Loss just fuels a stronger mark
Give with grace, love’s the key
Leave a light for all to see

Live it true, oh, live it true
Life begins with only you
A final breath, horizon calls 

Life Begins With Only You

A little song I wrote back in September of 2023. Inspired by a beauty, who made me think of the Proverbs 31 woman. She brought this song to life, and pretty neat that her birthstone was a ruby. I even bought her a pair of ruby colored shoes. This song will always be very special. It's amazing how those little moments can hit and unexpectedly ignite a song late at night. I love those moments, cause that's what I strive to always remember. She took that picture of me on the Steinway. I hope you enjoy this live recording I did very late last night. Thanks so much for listening:) 

Ruby

I was so lonely
Thank God I found
The perfect girl
Oh in such
A dark world
She's more precious
Than the rarest ruby
In all of the world
Oh how she loves me
She's my world

I'm never letting her go
I'm never letting her go
Everyday I'm gonna show
How my love will always grow
I'm never letting her go

And I've never been so happy
She's my favorite sound
Through all my nights and days
I love to hear
The way she prays
She's more precious
Than the rarest ruby
In all of the world
She holds the key
To another world

I'm never letting her go
I'm never letting her go
Everyday I'm gonna show
How my love will always grow
I'm never letting her go

I'm never letting her go
I'm never letting her go
Everyday I'm gonna show
How my love will always grow
I'm never letting her go

And she's more precious
Than the rarest ruby 
In all of the world
I'm never letting her go

Sailing Scottish Waters

[Verse]
From Skye to Harris the journey unfolds
Arran to Mull the stories retold
Salt on the breeze and the gulls in the air
A moment of freedom beyond all compare

[Verse 2]
Waves crash wild on the rugged shore
Nature's symphony I can't ignore
The boat sways soft like a gentle tune
Under the glow of the silver moon

[Chorus]
Oh these Scottish waters they call my name
Through sun and storm they’re never tame
The horizon burns with a golden light
Sailing through day into endless night

[Verse 3]
Rocks stand tall like ancient guards
Marking the path with their battle scars
The ocean’s pulse it beats in time
With the rhythm of this heart of mine

[Bridge]
The sun sinks low in a fiery embrace
Painting the sky with a tender grace
Echoes of bagpipes in the evening breeze
This is where I’m meant to be

[Chorus]
Oh these Scottish waters they call my name
Through sun and storm they’re never tame
The horizon burns with a golden light
Sailing through day into endless night


Sailing Scottish waters

There are people who believe you should love your neighbor as yourself
There are people who believe you should share some of your wealth
There are people who believe that only the fittest should survive
And if you’re poor and you’re weak it’s up to you to stay alive
There are people who believe you should teach a man to fish
Instead of giving him all his food in an already cooked dish
There are people who have an empathy deficit
They see people suffering and they don’t care one bit
They wear religion on their sleeves but if you’re in the wrong denomination.  They look at you like you’re an abomination.
People who treat politics the same as a religion and if presented with a new set of facts they don’t even budge a little smidgeon
Billionaires who have enough money where they could end world hunger in one day
Do they see people starving and think it is okay. We’re stronger together than if we are apart
If we could see ourselves as passengers on the same boat that would be a good start
We all share this this tiny rock as it floats through outer space
This planet is the lifeboat for the entire human race
Billionaires who what to create a colony on Mars. Let’s fix things here on earth before we travel to the stars
The world used to be full of undiscovered places but now humans have put footprints everywhere.
The continents touch the same oceans, and we all breathe the same air We live on one planet that we have to share
We’re stronger together than if we are apart
If we could see ourselves as passengers on the same boat that would be a good start
We all share this this tiny rock as it floats through outer space
This planet is the lifeboat for the entire human race. Billionaires who what to create a colony on Mars.   Let’s fix things here on earth before we travel to the stars

Empathy

Rapture is a new collaboration between the Beating Edge and Joe Stroffolino, following the awesome Asteroids (The Original Was Better). Joe wrote both the lyrics and the original music, while the Beating Edge rearranged and recorded it in a punchy rock style, adding driving guitars, strong rhythm, and dynamic choruses. Vocals feature Tom on lead, with Joe and Mary contributing both backing vocals and lead parts on certain verses and the bridge, creating a layered and energetic vocal texture.
The song explores the absurdity and irony of doomsday prophecies, the obsession with the rapture, and the endless cycle of believers and false prophets. It blends satirical storytelling with a critical eye on human behavior, delivering a mix of humor, intensity, and thought-provoking commentary through energetic rock arrangements. 
Rapture is a track that engages both the mind and the ears, combining narrative, power, and fun in equal measure.

Lyrics:

These prophets who say the world's gonna end and they set a specific date
And then when it doesn't happen, their followers still think they're great
The sun rises the next morning and people stumble out of bed
Disappointed that the rapture didn't happen and they're still alive instead of dead

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

They claim they have a direct line to God but there was a glitch in the connection
But now they're certain of the expiration date so they issue a correction
The shepherd guides the flock and tries to keep them safe from harm
But how many times can you cry wolf before people ignore your alarm

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

Who cares about the environment if you think the world is gonna end
And you're convinced the second coming is right around the bend
So drill baby drill and chop down all the plants and trees
No need to spend money on curing terrible disease

In every generation throughout history, people were certain that the rapture would come
And they had followers willing to believe them as they fed them each a tiny crumb
In baseball you only get three strikes and then the umpire says you're out
But when it comes to doomsday prophecies, the true believers have no doubt

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind
