Lyrics

You were busking in the city,
where I've been living,
for seven years now.

Yeah, I think you're pretty,
and when I smiled at you
you were kind of flattered.

You sang two sad songs,
telling the people around,
that they would have to bear it.

But I can tell you,
you sang so deep from your soul,
that I had tears in my eyes,
you made people stop, and not just pass by,
you were touching hearts
behind crowded minds.

I listened 'til you finished,
and with all my courage,
I started talking to you.

Man,
I felt like a school boy,
so nervous and shy,

but somehow I managed to tell you,
that I want to spend time with you,
before we said goodbye

Now I've got to write a song for you,
'cause after 2 weeks, you still did not reply,
I made myself not think about you,
but now I got tired to try.

I assume, you're not interested right now,
and I can really take that easy.
I'm not just looking for a girlfriend, you know
though I wouldn't mind having one or two.

But seriously, it's because I already,
found myself,
and I want everybody else,
just to be themselves.

I'd just like to get to know you a bit more,
meet you from soul to soul,
I'd love to play and sing with you,
maybe record some music, too.

Who knows, maybe we'll grow friends,
are you not curious to see,
what will be alive,
between you and me?

The Law of the Gun (A Theme of Vengeance)

Copyright 2024 Joe Stroffolino

I hold my cards close to my vest
Don’t like to share my political views. 
There’s people out there who poke at me and try to light my fuse
They say we’re in a downward spiral, the world’s spinning out of control
They try to get me fired up, pull me down their rabbit hole

I roll with the punches; I try to do the best I can
The world’s a complicated place and I’m just a simple man
But one thing that I’m a hundred percent certain about
I’m sick and tired all these angry people who like to scream and shout

They say one guys goanna drive us off the cliff, the other one's goanna lead us to the promised land.
And there’s books I have no desire to read, that they say should be banned.
They say it’s bad to be woke, but I’m not even sure what that means
And the reason I’m living paycheck to paycheck is because we have too many drag queens.

I roll with the punches; I try to do the best I can
The world’s a complicated place and I’m just a simple man

All these people trying to shove their views down my throat
I wish I could dig a virtual moat
Encircle myself and live in a cone of silence, that would be nice
I’m not interested in joining a cult
I wish that I had a catapult
So I could take all that stuff they’ve been shoveling and throw it back at them. That would be great.

It took a long time for us to get into this mess
And if you say you have a simple fix
I suspect it’s probably just a bunch of smoke and mirror tricks
Politics is the new religion
But unlike belief in heaven and hell
You don’t need to die to find out if your choices turn out well

“The Elusive Organ”  by Luke

The journey continues. "Rebirth" unfolds as the second chapter in this artistic saga, delving deeper into the journey of self-discovery and authenticity.

This track is an ode to embracing your true self, shedding old skins, and emerging renewed. As the night gives way to dawn, we find the courage to stand in our own light.

I'm genuinely overwhelmed by the incredible response to "The Night." Your streams, shares, and messages have been a guiding star, illuminating this path forward. Each listen has played a part in bringing this vision to life, and for that, I'm deeply grateful. 💛🙏

"Rebirth" is another step on this illuminated journey, but the story is far from over. Thank you for being part of this adventure.

The best is yet to come. 💫🔄🌅

Rebirth

The Rose Theatre existed for only 17 years before its demolition in 1604. In the days of Shakespeare's tragedies this was surely a sad tale indeed. 
With 22 theatres in London at the end of the Tudor dynasty these bawdy wooden palaces were situated on the rough southern side of the Thames where cock fighting and bear baiting were also prevalent attractions. The remains of the Rose Theatre's foundations were discovered during recent redevelopment and are now a much heralded visitor attraction.

Tudor Rose Blues

New Single By Edge Of The Void

I was raised where the streets ran slow 
Barefoot summers where the wild grass grew 
Back when the stars could still break through 
Before the city swallowed the moon

The lights got brighter, the roads stretched far 
The voices doubled, then tripled the cars 
They paved the fields where we used to play 
And built up walls that hid the day

So I packed my bags, left the static behind 
Chased the wind to the edge of the night

Where the sky runs wide and the roads turn to dust 
Where the wolves still howl when the night wakes up 
No towers to fall, no sirens to cry 
Just the wind and the trees and the firelight

Mama used to say, There’s room for dreams
Now the lines stretch longer than the eye can see 
We watched the homes turn cold and gray 
And I knew we couldn't stay

Met a man with a map in his weathered hands 
Said, Ain’t no place left untouched by man 
Told me, Run while you can, before they come 
Before the silence is overrun

Where the sky runs wide and the roads turn to dust 
Where the wolves still howl when the night wakes up 
No towers to fall, no sirens to cry 
Just the wind and the trees and the firelight

Maybe out here, I’ll learn to be free 
Find a home where the world still breathes 
Where the air is clean, and the stars still shine 
Far from the weight of a crowded mind

Where the sky runs wide and the roads turn to dust 
Where the wolves still howl when the night wakes up 
No towers to fall, no sirens to cry 
Just the wind and the trees and the firelight

Let the wind take me where I belong 
Where the world still whispers in an old, lost song

Firelight

Many thanks to Minai for singing lead on this song.

Lyrics:
Exceptional night, warm candlelight, 
Feeling you could lose your heart without a fight.
Mist in the eye, willing to try to find love.
Moonflower air, senses aware,
Music winds its way up through a dim thoroughfare.
Diamond sky, willing to try to find love.

Ending up the evening with an indigo feeling
Ending up the evening with a sigh
Ending up the evening, ending up the evening in love.

No one’s gonna tell you that it’s time to turn around
No one’s gonna stop the magic now
Everything is pointing in the one direction
The only one that you’ll allow.

Smile in the air, arms that are bare,
Such a heady feeling that you’re not really there.
Drink to the sky, willing to try to find love.

Ending up the evening with an indigo feeling
Ending up the evening with a sigh
Ending up the evening, ending up the evening in love.

Moonflower air, senses aware,
Music winds its way up through a dim thoroughfare.
Diamond sky, willing to try to find love.
 
Ending up the evening with an indigo feeling
Ending up the evening with a sigh
Ending up the evening, ending up the evening in love.

Ending Up the Evening
