Notre vie n'est elle pas qu'un vaste mensonge dans ce que l'on a fait , ce que l'on fait et ce que l'on fera ? Où se cachent nos mensonges ?
Compositeur-Arrangeur : Philippe SEGUINARD  Auteur mélodiste : Guillaume DULER

Lyrics:
J'ai fait beaucoup de mal
Ma peau est si chaude
Abîme abyssal
Je survis en fraude
 Sculptez ma pierre tombale
Je déménage à l'aube
Dites à la brume de descendre
Dans sa plus belle robe

Where fate lies ?

Qui étrangle ce goût vivant
D'aller dans le présent
J'ai des preuves que les gens meurent
Assez de prières et de pleurs
Toutes les vies sont glissantes
Je crois qu'on ne s'aime pas.
On jette ceux qui nous détestent
On pardonne à ceux qui restent

Where fate lies ?

C'est quoi la règle du jeu
Solitaire de la mort
Des espoirs pour un peu
Je sais pas si j'ai tort
Pas même la pluie enfin
Dans des rivière perdues
Ne perd son chemin
Sa raison d'être son but

I've done a lot of damage
My skin is so hot
Abyssal abyss
I survive as a fraud
Carve my tombstone
I'm moving at dawn
Tell the mist to come down
In her best dress
Where fate lies?
That strangles this living taste
To go into the present
I've got proof that people die
Enough praying and crying
All lives are slippery
I think we don't love each other.
We throw away those who hate us
We forgive those who stay
Where fate lies?
What's the rule of the game
Solitaire of death
Hopes for a little
I don't know if I'm wrong
Not even rain at last
In lost rivers
Does not lose its way
Its purpose its goal

The Final Wager

Steer me in the right direction and I'll go
And I won't stop until I find
A bridge across the wind, passage through the rain
A workaround to buy us some more time

The final wager
We'll run the table
And love will win at last

Sort me out so I can be the kind of guy
That you would proudly call your own
The stupid things I do will not embarrass you
And you will never be alone

The final wager
We'll run the table
And love will win at last

Wind me up and I will walk the straightest line
A gauntlet of our enemies around
But just one look at me, they'll part like the red sea
And we will walk across the ground

The final wager
We'll run the table
And love will win at last

君の　傍に
佇むひとはだれ？

想いの　限り
呼ぶ声さえ遠い


言葉にしないと　伝わらないと君
言葉にすれば　嘘に霞むと僕


だれの　ために
今宵道を照らす？

想いの　限り
手を振るひとをみた


言葉にしないと　伝わらないと君
言葉にすれば　嘘に霞むと僕


翼が　あれば
君のもとへ行こう

傘が　あれば
君に傾けよう


君の　傍に
佇むひとはだれ？

想いの　限り
呼ぶ声さえ遠い


想いの　限り
呼ぶ声さえ遠い

Back to You (I'll Find the Way)

Every time we break away
I feel blue,
just thinking of you

Can’t hide away
from the pain,
feel it night and day

Heart weighs heavy 
on my mind,
thoughts are unkind

So much trouble 
there to find,
I can’t unwind

Only one thing
on my mind,
silence on the line

Without you, 
I can’t rest
It’s meaningless

I feel so lonely I could die
Without you

In the dark my mind plays tricks on me 
you set me free

And when I call out your name
I feel eternity

Has it been a year or just a day
Time’s gone away
Time’s gone away
Time’s gone away

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

Wait there for me,
I’ll be there for you

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

I feel so lonely I could die
Without you

In the dark my mind plays tricks on me 
you set me free

Every time we break away
I feel blue,
Just thinking of you

Can’t hide away
From the pain
Feel it night and day

Without you, 
I can’t rest
It’s meaningless

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

Wait there for me,
I’ll be there for you

I’ll find the way
To get back to you

Verse 1
On this train called “Liberty”
I saw my life in front of me
As I close my eyes and I drift away
And float along the milky way

Verse 2
On this train called “Liberty”
I realised endless possibilities
As I look up to the stars above
On this train called “Liberty”.

Verse 3
The rain pours down on warm summer night in New England
The hypnotic rhythm of the train on the tracks soothes my weary mind
I close my eyes and I float away
To the land of emerald green
I close my eyes live another day 
And thank Mary Magdalene

Chorus
I look at the moon and starlight
Shining high in the sky
I think of all the wrongs and all the rights
But I am just a man of simple means, no wise guy
I am just a man of simple means, no wise guy
(Last time- I am on this train called “Liberty”).

Middle 8
On this train called “Liberty” 
Your free to disagree
As long as I stay on the tracks and never look back
I know that I am free
Free to think, to be who I am
Free to live and not care a dam
I am on the train they call “Liberty”.

There to Here  Pt. 2

This Train Called Liberty

Crazy Little Thing Called Love Cover

Last but not least, Smokin Rock bares its soul for the world to see. Dannewitz belts out his story of hardship with unflinching honesty as Hank Rusch machine guns the universe with his Stratocaster. This song was written in 2018. It was a sort of autobiographical song  pertaining to singer Bob Dannewitz during a rough patch in his life.  At the that time lockdowns, riots, crime, war were non existent. We thought the song was not relatable so we shelved it.  What a difference a couple of years make!! Now all the mad prophet rantings are par for the course in this year 2024.  This the last of Smokin Rock's releases in the album Desiree, we present it for your listening.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Red maple leaves reflect the sunlight
As the sun shines down, it seems so bright
I raise myself up and collect all my thoughts
Union station is such a good sight, hey

Verse 2
Betsey Willams holds out her hand 
As I step off the train onto this new land
Well brother, it’s good to be here
I hear your whisper in my inner year

Chorus
I’ve finally feet on the ground; I’m here now
Finally, feet on the ground
Well brother, I’m looking for you, well you said
You’d be waiting for the train to pull in

Middle 8
I can see your hand wave to me
As you stand by an old oak tree
Hey brother, it’s been so long
So many years have come and gone

For Betsey Williams

A song about hope that there are better days and they may well be tomorrow...I think

Lyrics
People say that your dreams are crazy
but mine are just like every day of my life
I find myself not running away from
those kind of problems that you know that I can’t fight
cos you know that I don’t fight
yeah you know that I won’t
More people shouting that I’m losing the plot now
how can you shed what you never really owned
fair trial myself for selfless treason
the only evidence against me is all I’ve been told
it’s all I’ve ever known
but is it all I’ll ever be
So don’t care what they all say
because tomorrow’s another
go free yourself from your pent up jail
because tomorrow’s another
try see in yourself for achieve and not fail
and know tomorrow’s another
then forget today and just walk away
cos tomorrow’s another day
tomorrow’s another day
yeah tomorrow’s another day
our tomorrow is another day
Same different people scream that I’m out of control
when I’ve never been more tied up in my life
I Caught myself in a mirror laughing
those lines remind me that I’ll make the perfect wife
so just go Live their perfect life
cos I’ve heard imperfect is worth less

So don’t care what they all say
because tomorrow’s another
go free yourself from your pent up jail
because tomorrow’s another
try see in yourself for achieve and not fail
and know tomorrow’s another
then forget today and just walk away
cos tomorrow’s another day
tomorrow’s another day
yeah tomorrow’s another day
our tomorrow is another day
Now I’m telling you that I’m all better inside
telling you I got no reason left to hide
I’m telling you I’m the one in charge of my fate
I’m telling you I’m so much more than love and hate
more than love and hate
cos it’s better to be than wait
we’re so much more than love and hate
much more than love and hate

We don’t care what they all say
because tomorrow’s another
we freed ourselves from our pent up jails
because tomorrow’s another
we saw our self for achieve and not fail
and know tomorrow’s another
we forget today and just walked away
cos tomorrow’s another day
tomorrow’s another day
yeah tomorrow’s another day
our tomorrow is another day

Tomorrow is another day

The movie Brazil by Terry Gilliam has an important memory in my heart and the lyrics came from that story here the lyrics : 
Punch in an office of boredom 
That outmarchs your identity 
Obvious powers that command you 
Without a bit of humanity.  

Controlled lives by day 
Controlled dreams by night 
Illusion of a total control that will annihilate us.  

Your Angel Grows in you 
Blue eyes that caress you 
Make of you 
The Strength and courage and risk 
That was in you Sweet union always dreamed of 
Lives in you.  

Routine broken cleanly From a desire for freedom 
Madness and blood that threaten you 
From a system of stamped sheets  
Life resurrected from a desire 
Hidden in a corrupt office 
Leviathan greedy for stolen lives 
From a work of sheets and drafts  
Your Angel Grows in you Blue eyes that caress you Make of you.

Lyrics:

OUT OF THE BLUE
I thought to be the master of my life,
before it happened

I planned all to better my results,
but things are different

I didn't think that all this could take place
so fast to concuss

I didn't think to find me all at once
before a bivium.

Out of the blue
I see in front of me
a choice to take
Out of the blue
my plans fly away,
in spite of my defence.

I thought to be the master of my life,
before it happened

I planned all to better my results,
but things are different

And so I did find out that
every way takes to other ways,

and this will be forever.
Destiny, we dope out step by step.

OUT OF THE BLUE

Jack Hammer - Wild Christopher & Unguided Express

Cast of Characters:
 
Cgmaness – @user-419254289-15129531 – Chris – foundational acoustic guitar and seed idea
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, piano, synth oboe, lyrics, and vocals
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken– drums and percussion 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four string fretless bass
The Eclectic Collective — composition and mix

  This is the second song in a row that The Eclectic Collective is releasing in as many weeks that was written by Chris. We love working on his songs, and all jumped at the chance to play with this one, as well. He wrote it on an acoustic guitar, onto which he also put some heavy reverb, giving it an ethereal, chordal sound. To that bare bones, Josh fist added his four-string fretless bass to a click track, of all things. Luckily, Ken swooped in soon after and gave it a proper beat with his lively percussion performance. 
  Once the rhythm section was complete, Tez added his melodic, golden-tone guitar in there. Then, it was JJ's turn. He added not only the piano and synth, but wrote the lyrics and sang it, as well. 
  This song was actually mixed by the group, as we all added our parts, although Ken did some final adjustments, too.
  JJ's lyrics tell the story of the first people to reach Easter Island, millennia ago. The wonder of the journey and the discovery of a new home, while using the materials available to survive. Here are his original lyrics.

Original Lyrics by J.J. Terrell:
 
Through the eyes of the gentle rain
Monuments raised where the Lapwings stay
All the sand, the hourglass of man sifts here
A traveling band of gypsies in this land appear
Crowd the fire as the night sets in
Listen for tales of enlightenment
Until dawn
The flowered down of a bird so true
Pure as heaven, the chosen few
It's all waiting for the night

Rien de Bien

Another stroll in the park is another track off album number 2 in the trilogy  "There to here".
Words and music: Phil Bowen
Guitars, keyboards and vocals: Phil Bowen 
Mixed and produced: Phil Bowen
Lyrics: 
Verse 1
Another stroll in the park today
I need a little time to get away
Working so hard from morning to night
Those days that passed, they fade away

Verse 2
I thank Roger Williams for the acres of space
I feel that I am one of the human race
I have a place to call my own 
I have a place I call home
And than my brother for his warm embrace

Middle 8
One moment I have nothing but hope
Thinking each day, I have to jump a rope
No more listening to those who moralise
I see my world with new eyes

Verse 3
Another stroll in the park today
I look up to the sky and watch clouds float by
Birds, they sing as they spread their wings
A mother calls when her children cry.

Lyrics:

REACTION
I don't like what I see all around
Certain projects are beyond the bound
Sometimes I wish I could come back a bit
in the wheel of time.

I try to find a why
The dehumanization involves you and I
An artificial world full of droning idols
makes me no so quiet.

I can't believe the way we live
A desert in the heart without relief
They're going on, the nous is gone
A crowd of automatons with no real bonds
This makes me cry, this makes me try.

Oh...What to do?
What's going on?
Reaction!
Oh...Me and you
Oh...Come on!
Reaction!

Certain people must stay down to earth
They can't decide your life and death
We gotta get strong, holding on
as much as possible.

I can't believe the way we live
A desert in the heart without relief
They're going on, the nous is gone
A crowd of automatons with no real bonds
This makes me cry, this makes me try.

Oh...What to do?
What's going on?
Reaction!
Oh...Me and you
Oh...Come on!
Reaction!

REACTION

A song about over-consumption at the mall Music & Lyrics By Massimo Primiero Sung By Luca Giordano

Sale Sale Sale in slumber of Bazar 
With lacquers the glitter and flavors of Lillà
Everything is ready here on sale if you want it
Spend Buy Rent in an environment of rich ones
where glitter light and flowers are empty as holes.
Everything is ready here on sale if you want it
Sale Sale Sale in slumber of Bazar 
With lacquers the glitter and flavors of Lillà
Everything is ready here on sale if you want it

Discounts in large and shiny packages if you want with attractive proposals
Tired false smiles of revelers emptied of pride and desire to dream
Sly deviants handlers of strong deceptions dirty profits on the backs of revelers
Exploited Humiliated with toilet considerations in non-stop work for the delight of the lackeys.

Savings earnings
Savings earnings

Goods in relaxing frames hidden thefts of arduous jobs
Deaths hidden by the conveniences of futile needs of an impertinent environment
People as numbers and numbers as stamps calculations and balances of death and frustration
Shoplifting players wielding strong military deceptions hidden behind low prices.

Savings earnings
Savings earnings

Junk strong with exceptional discounts cashiers carts receipts to count
take grab bargain grab savings earn in points.
Junk strong with exceptional discounts cashiers carts receipts to count
take grab bargain grab savings earn in points.

Sales based on fake promotions mirrors of fake games given away
Everything sells Everything cashes in.

We are waiting for you with open arms ;-)
