Sweet song, dude all sounds great! :D Keep on rocking

I deleted this one earlier this year for whatever reason. But It's here to stay now.

Well it's a dud, caught in the middle of I know you should
You said you would, not counting stitches at the end of it
And there you go, there you go
It's just for show, it's just for show
--------------------------------------------------------
And if I say tomorrow, I'm burning down a bridge
You see the flames of sorrow and breathe the ashes
Cause' it's a dud, ah held on when you knew you could
You lost your foot, ah and fell from where you stood
From where you stood
--------------------------------------------------------
Well, in a nutshell, you're everything I thought you were
And standing sun, toss it in and let it burn
And there you go, there you go
It's just for show, it's just for show
--------------------------------------------------------
And if I say tomorrow, I'm burning down a bridge
You see the flames of sorrow and breathe the ashes
Cause' it's a dud, ah held on when you knew you could
You lost your foot, ah and fell from where you stood
From where you stood

Counting Stitches

Lyrics.
My supply.
Don't you wanna come and play with me,
even though I'm twisted at the seams
Don't you have that feeling  that I just Don't belong
Seven ways to heaven goes so wrong.
Just like a bug you've captured me
and Now I live in eternal infirmary
I see my nurses get so high
on my prescribed supply
My supply
I have this feeling that I just cant get away
I'm busy pissing on this wall
Just like a bug you've captured me
and Now I live in eternal infirmary
I see my nurses get so high on my prescribed supply
My supply
And when you finally let me out of my cage
and let me feel the sunshine upon my face
then I feel the pressure of your embrace
and I wonder if everything will be ok
My supply
Just like a bug you've captured me
and Now you just wont let me leave
I see my nurses get so high on my prescribed supply
My supply

Lyrics:
I’m not bein’ fake, I just wanna make
The kind of record I like listenin’ to
Oh I’m not on the take, I just wanna make
The kind of record that I love, oh,

I’ll have a backbeat boppin’ along, 
But with a change-up in the middle of the song.
I’ll have a solo that’s really swell, 
But not too long ‘cause I don’t play very well. Oh! Oh!

You can call me a flake, but I just wanna make, 
The kind of record I like listenin’ to,
Yeah, for Everly’s sake, I just wanna make
The kind of record that I love, oh-oh

Finally I realize that I’ve got an audience of one, oh,
No one else will listen, they’re all into dissin’,
So I might as well have my own fun, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Gimme a break, I just wanna make (bop-shoo-wops)
The kind of record I like listenin’ to 
Ah, let them eat cake, I just wanna make
The kind of record that I love, oh-oh

I’m gonna make some rhymes, 
That I can stand to hear a thousand times,
I’m gonna choose a theme, (yeah yeah yeah)
That’s Beatle-icious and will make me scream, ah-ah-ah-aagh!

Instrum:   

Oh gimme a break, I just wanna make, the kind of record that I love, oh,

Guys, I realize, that my career is on the shelf, oh,
No one will listen, they’re all into dissin’
So I might as well pleasure myself, oh, oh! oh! oh! ow!

You can call me a flake, but I just wanna make,
The kind of record I like listenin’ to
Yeah, for Everly’s sake, I just wanna make
The kind of record that I love, oh-oh oh,
Oooo - oooo - oooo.

Kind Of Record

This song is inspired by my own personal guitar hero, from the lyrics down to the incredible guitar tone. There are some mistakes in the finale version due to the complexity of the arpeggios. I just couldn't get a perfect recording no matter how many attempts i gave it.

Outcast

Trapped

20 years, ist lost its first bass player, Mark 'Detroit' Robbins. In honour of his memory, the remaining members of that first line-up - Kenton Hall, Chris Ilett and Mark Haynes reformed to record a song from that era that had somehow slipped through the cracks. 

We were joined by friends of the band Phillip Eldridge-Smith and Paul Swannell and the result is 'All That Nerve'.

OS INVITO A PENSAR

Soy un hombre de los muchos
que se quejan de su suerte;
de esa “dama” y sus caprichos
que rara vez viene a verme.

Sin embargo, veo otras gentes
sin ninguna preocupación;
eso al menos me parece,
aunque, tal vez, sea una visión.

Pero hoy estando pensando
he visto al fin la realidad
y sin querer me he convencido
de que no me puedo quejar.

Hoy, amigos, os invito a pensar
y conmigo quiero que analicéis
si, a veces, no es injusto ese pesar
producido por la inconformidad.

Si la envidia os arrastra al rencor
yo os ruego que a vuestro lado miréis
para que os percatéis del error
pues tu hermano se encuentra aún peor.

Estribillo

Decidme si no es la verdad
que nos quejamos de vicio:
estemos en cualquier sitio
siempre pedimos ¡más y más!

Decidme si no es la verdad
que al ver sufrir al prójimo
sentimos que el egoísmo 
tergiversa la realidad

-------------

No os pido que aprendáis la lección
que en sí encierra ese tópico refrán
que habla de tontos y de consolación
pues comprendo que no es la solución.


Sólo quiero que escuchéis mi canción:
con su texto y total sinceridad
estudiéis vuestra postura y situación
y entonces ¡sacad la conclusión! 

Estribillo

I INVITE YOU TO THINK

I am one of the many men
who complain about their fate;
about that “lady” and her whims
who rarely comes to see me.

However, I see other people
without any concern;
at least that is what it seems to me,
although, perhaps, it is a vision.

But today, thinking
I have finally seen the reality
and without wanting to, I have convinced myself
that I cannot complain.

Today, friends, I invite you to think
and with me I want you to analyze
if, at times, this sorrow
produced by discontent is not unfair.

If envy drags you to resentment
I beg you to look at your side
so that you realize the error
because your brother is even worse off.

Chorus

Tell me if it is not the truth
that we complain out of vice:
wherever we are
we always ask for more and more!

Tell me if it isn't true
that when we see others suffer
we feel that selfishness
distorts reality

-------------

I'm not asking you to learn the lesson
that is contained in that cliché saying
that speaks of fools and consolation
because I understand that it is not the solution.

I just want you to listen to my song:
with its lyrics and total sincerity
study your position and situation
and then draw the conclusion!

Chorus

OS INVITO A PENSAR (I INVITE YOU TO THINK)

Little While

Dawn is the Sunrise

I saw a flower
Growing in the dirt
Surrounded by silver
She couldn't even touch

She knew she won't last
Forever

Never again
Will she see the morning sun
Never again
Will she feel

I saw a flower
Fading in the dust
A smile in the gutter
Blew by a sudden gust

She knew she won't last
Forever

Never again
Will she see the morning sun
Never again
Will she feel the pouring rain
The ground beneath her feet
In this dirty street
