An Orchid Waits (Feat. lyrics by Liz Petty)

Here is a link to the youtube video for the song! https://youtu.be/sXd5B2iSWck
I looked back at the few notes I collected during this Photo Op's song development time-frame and concluded I did not have much to go on after a two year lapse.  The lyrics were not fully documented in my notebook. I must have been using lyric ideas and ad-libbing them into the song. I do not know my state of mind and wish I was better at capturing this closer to the song's conception point.

Life was still fairly locked down due to Covid, Trump was still in-office and the George Floyd protests were ongoing. The song was created without any direct outside musical influence driving the creative direction. This was me inside my studio starting from ground zero and evolving the song over the course of probably several weekends by playing around with sounds, rhythms and textures until a fuzzy shape of cohesion slowly emerged.

Listening back, I suspect, I smashed together two fairly divergent musical ideas. Bold move Dave and perhaps disastrous from a song gluing perspective. I like it anyway. Lyrics were influenced by what was going on around me and one of those things was a narcissist clutching a bible and clearing a peaceful protest with tear gas to enable his next photo op in front of the church.  A holy moment indeed. 

Lyrics
Photo Op
by David Husted

Dew drop dreams
Silly games
Buy some more stuff
Throw it away
Is it me?
Where did I go?
When we turn our backs
let them take it away.

They say it's gonna rain again
I don’t have an umbrella
They say its time to hate again
Photo ops and killing

Is it really so improbable?
State news and oligarchs selling fools
Make lies a game, and fear predominant 
Shake the base of our democracy

A Brand New Kind of Oxygen

Another track done with the remarkable https://soundcloud.com/nakedverse soon to be featured on an unfinished E.P. we are working on. you will always hear it here first. This is a song , a positive outlook about the future of humanity.
Lyrics:-
Are we in the wilderness
As we search for happiness
Is confusion on the menu
As we choose our daily venues
We're bolder and older
And love is something else
The main thing's the right thing to do
It always helps

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

When life seems to take its toll
And you can't get on a roll
There's a million different people
Having other such upheaval
Who told you , consoled you
That this is all you get
It's time to , define you
Think what you'll create 

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

It's gonna be so good
Better than before

C'mon out the wilderness
You can find your happiness
With no confusion on the menu 
As you change your daily venues
We're bolder and older
And love is something else
The main thing's the right thing to do
It always helps

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

If my song is a boat

A Big Thank You to Zeralda for composing and contributing these wonderful keythemes and the rhythm section…

You can use red contact lenses
You can also glue on a false beard
Maybe put a wig upon your head
Or simply dye your hair
Using sausage water to create a false trail ?
Or hide in Mino's maze

ref 
nonetheless, nonetheless, nonetheless

2
You can plane your fingertips
Put on a perfume Chanel No 5
You can walk backwards in the snow
You may even use stealth technology
You can change means of transport
Or walk upstream
Perhaps hiding behind waterfalls
Or also put on a spacesuit
You can speed away in a really fast car
Even take a plane
You can hide on a cruise- or containership
As a blind passenger

ref 
but nonetheless, but nonetheless

3
You can forge the ID
Even swap your tax number
Or even change your health insurance
You can lay false tracks everywhere

out (2)
You might think you left without trace
But Dr Sniff’s already got your pace
You could even try to hide in hell
But Dr Sniff’s already taken up your smell 

Already taken up your smell… (4)

Break The Silence

I cant remember a time when music wasn't a huge part of my life......    I am not a purist to any one genre.   If the music is heartfelt then I love it.  I write about my experiences and feelings, as well as what I observe in other peoples lives. Thanks to all the musicians out there who are  listening to my songs and giving me your positive feedback, as well as inspiring me with your own beautiful sounds.    What an amazing music community SoundCloud has turned out to be.
