"The Hard Road"

(Verse 1)
Well, I don't know what'as happening here
But sopmething ain't feeling right
Knocked Down - Turned around
I'm fighting for my life

(PreChorus 1)
Setback - Stand my my ground
Keep on swining until the end of the round
Stand tall - Every fall
It's do or die with your back against the wall

(Chorus)
I'm gonna set my sight on the bright lights of the city
Life's the hard road; a trail of tears & misery

(Verse 2)
Ain't nothing really different
But everything has changed
I'm looking in a mirror
For someone I can blame

(Pre Chorus 2)
Be cruel - Play the fool
Whatever your predilection
Strap in - Cold gin
Find myself a new direction

(Chorus)

(Bridge - Guitar Solo)
I'm too young to die (x4)

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Well, I can't find a reason
I'm sure there is no rhyme
Why so many of us 
Are dropping outta line

(PreChorus 1)

(Chorus)

Hello.  Thanks for stopping by.  
Special thanks to my friends at SONGWRITERS/Anyonomouns :
Chris Costanzo, Gerry Marsh, Dan Terpstra & Joe Liberty for their helpful ideas & their ears.  Also to Chris Lane Sr. for playing me some Kick Ass Bass!

Before I say it..... I AM FINE.

This is a song about my personal battle with cancer.  It came out of nowhere an unterly shook my world to pieces.  It's not about the events  but more about my way of coping with it.  For any who have traveled this "Hard Road" I hope you can relate in your own way.  For those of you who haven't I hope that it is never anything  nothing more than a song about not giving up when throuws you a curve ball.  Peace to All & keep on Rockin!

Wrote this song and sent it to M0nk3y to be co-produced. I contributed harmonies/melodies/tonal parts. He added his own drums and edits and arranged and mixed the track. https://soundcloud.com/omegamusic <---his page.

Just like that we were gone, we were on our way
Sitting in the Pinyon, there’s a Woodhouse Jay
Looked above that cinder hill
Saw the worm moon rise
In that fleeting moment  just passing by
In that fleeting moment  just passing by

Guess I’m riding shotgun now, we got April in tow
The golden clouds set a drift in the indigo
Dam you know that winter was cold as hell
Joshua’s in the promised land, the best I can tell
Joshua’s in the promised land ,the best I can tell

Behind every shadow there’s a light
Sometimes dim, most often bright
Splinters on the pages black and white
Behind every shadow there’s a light

There’s a pickup at the depot on the line
Behind the glass on the wall, it was frozen in time
And every time you look at it

You learn something new
Railroad ties in the sand, under shades of blue
Railroad ties in the sand, under shades of blue

Sipping from the nectar
There’s a White-winged Dove
In your mind at the edge of time
Can you feel my love?

Where the rocky roads unravel
We’ll swim in the sea
We can open the door pick a lock
'Cause we don’t need a key
We can open the door pick a lock
'Cause we don’t need a key

​Behind every shadow there’s a light
Sometimes dim, most often bright
Splinters on the pages black and white
Behind every shadow there’s a light

Heart eyes, heart eyes when I see you
Inspirational I really wanna be you
Doors locked and I need to find the key thru
Lock into the heart that you see thru

Heart eyes, heart eyes when I see you
Inspirational I really wanna be you
Doors locked and I need to find the key thru
Lock into the heart that you see thru

You're the one, that ends the pain
You're the sunlight to my rain
We won't sit, talk and complain
But we'll get better at the end of the day
We'll get better at the end of the day
We'll get better at the end of the day
We'll get better at the end of the day

Look around it's hard to see through
All the hardships, you have no clue
Inspirational, heart is what I come to
Take what I've said for redo

Clouded minds fill the open air
Heart eyes come but so rare
Life's hard you make it fair
Heart eyes cleanse the despair
Heart eyes, heart eyes when I see you
Inspirational I really wanna be you
Doors locked and I need to find the key thru
Locked into the heart that you see thru

All the pain, all the hate
Disappears without a trace
Heart eyes, opens our fate
To the new things for debate

You're the one, that ends the pain
You're the sunlight to my rain
We won't sit, talk and complain
But we'll get better at the end of the day
We'll get better at the end of the day
We'll get better at the end of the day

Yeah you're the sunlight to my rain

Yeah you're the sunlight to my rain

Yeah you're the sunlight to my rain

I know that it's hard sometimes baby come and hold me tight
I've been lost, and I'm lost
Every time I start to cry you were never there at night
Why were you gone, when I was lost
Kinda wonder why you hate me
I kinda want you to love me (woah-oh-oh-oh)
Do you ever say goodbye?
I don't want this to ever end
So we'll fly like the doves yuh

You're the one, that ends the pain
You're the sunlight to my rain
We won't sit, talk and complain
But we'll get better at the end of the day

heart eyes w/ athryn & akiradoves (redmosk)

Been singing all of my life, writing lyrics since 1983, recording since 1995.

I am sort of transgenre'd.  Straight across the board.  The only good thing good about being a non-performing songwriter is you have the freedom to pretty much write what you want in any genre you want.

I grew up listening to classical, the Beatles and Stones, James Taylor, Carly Simon, and later , the Doobie Brothers.  Nowadays, I just find a playlist on Spotify. I am partial to alternative these days. And electronic if it has vocals.

I've been at this a while, and if you are like me, you'll never get tired of it.
