nice drifting guitars, blank canvases all around...

Interesting lyrics and song. Especially like when you said 'turn up the delay and too much distortion...' That's how I feel like 90% of the time haha

You will no longer be busy
with disrespect
You will no longer sink your teeth
into this neck
You will no longer be paid
with energy. BET
You’ll only now receive 
the reality check

Going down, down, down
in rank
Going down, down, down 
in rank
You're going down, down, down, 
down in rank-
Cause I'm THE ONE now
driving the tank

No emotion (back at cha)
Your demotion (and betcha)
You won't be causing
anymore commotion...

Pay Day

Runs in the family / runs in the family / No, that's an atrocity / you won't hear from me / I don't like the sound of that / Not lyin' in a mouse trap / I'm a mofo' sassy cat / I don't clean no dirty rat / No, not MY reality / Said, not my reality / Don't shine shit in front of me / and call it my reality! / I don't like the sound of that / I don't like the sound of that / I don't like the sound of that / Cruel intentions: tires flat / I say what will shine for me / I say what will bleed for me / I call out the TRASH to me / Bad trash always DIES FOR ME / Clawed out my own reality / The top from the back alley / I don't run in the family / I run far from the alley / Calling all sour soulmates / Recovering alley cats / You all clean up so good now / NO bad, bad trash, just LoVe pats!

HI!! Here's my folk-rocky version of SCOTLAND THE BRAVE!!!
In 1951, the famous Scots singer Robert Wilson asked Cliff Hanley to write the words to accompany an old Highland pipe tune. Although few realised it at the time, "Scotland the Brave" was to become a nationwide and international hit. Indeed, it remained the de facto national anthem for two decades before being supplanted by Flower Of Scotland. SHARE AND COMMENT IF YOU LIKE!!

SCOTLAND THE BRAVE

Oh, my gravedigger, yeah,
Karmic one and only-
Cosmic Love so deadly
but I keep resurrecting

Just figured I’d always be
your pretty menacing-
{pretty dead} girl dancing
Your ego trip-enhancing 

My bones filthy for you
Corpse bride-moonlighting 
You look good shoveling
but I RIDE the LIGHTNING

Just another white lie 
lost on your checkerboard 
Never be your dead girl
but will always unfurl

as pretty {something}.

Pretty Something

Words:

only said you loved me 
one time i cornered you
now I understand-
only want the tightest hand
to just let go, yeah,
letting you go, go, go
ready, set, go
ready, set, go
ready, set, GO!!!

Now I'm racing so slow!
Snails RRR running the show!
At my own pace, LET GO!
Said, pour another, Moe,
I'm just tryin' to let go...

Snails RRR Running

Hi!! Here's my latest recording, a very old tune written many years ago by Rory Dall O'Cahan, he may have been an Irish harper and composer.  He is said to have been born circa 1580 in County Antrim and to have died circa 1653 at Eglinton Castle.
Unlike the vast number of travelling musicians, Ó Catháin was a gentleman by birth and he traveled into Scotland attended by the retinue of a rich gentle man.
ENJOY MY UILLEANN PIPES!!! Ale

CATHERINE OGIE

Introduction in English:
Some of my friends accuse me of having a longing for death or even of glorifying death. In fact, I often deal with death in my lyrics - as I do in this song and the whole album that will be released in the next 12 to 15 months. 
But as with previous songs, I always say that I can enjoy life all the more by fully accepting death as an inevitable reality. Many people who try to suppress this fact constantly feel an underlying, agonising fear that tends to keep them away from the wonderful aspects of life. 
In addition, recognising that death is a constant companion from birth leads to even more profound gratitude for every day that I am allowed to live. 
The song ‘Rendezvous with Death’ was written at a time when I was at an important turning point in my life. During this phase, I realised that I had to let some things ‘die’ in order to continue living well. In this respect, this in-depth rendezvous was necessary in order to move forward again. Another example of how death and life are inextricably linked.


Lyrics in English

Rendezvous with Death

The dead comes very quietly
He sneaks up behind you unnoticed
He has stolen your lifelong dream
So don't even start making plans for the future

In the most beautiful kiss he takes your joy
In the greatest rush of life he simply unplugs you

He cradles you gently in his lap, lulls your mind, sings you to sleep
Before you awake, he draws you all the way in to himself 

He is waiting for you in the treetop 
Lean in, he takes you to himself
With every branch he has already grasped you
The dead

Deutscher Originaltext

Rendezvous mit dem Tod

Der Tod kommt auf ganz leisen Sohlen
Er schleicht sich unbemerkt von hinten an
Er hat Dir Deinen Lebentraum gestohlen
Drum‘ fang‘ erst gar nicht mit Zukunftsplänen an

Im schönsten Kuss nimmt er Dir Deine Freude
Im größten Rausch des Lebens stöpselt er Dich einfach aus

Er wiegt Dich sanft in seinem Schoß, lullt Dich ein, singt Dich in den Schlaf
Bevor Du erwachst zieht er Dich ganz zu sich hinein 

In der Baumkrone erwartet er Dich 
Lehn Dich an, er nimmt Dich zu sich
Mit jedem Ast hat er Dich schon erfasst
Der Tod

Rendezvous mit dem Tod (Rendezvous with the dead)

Rendez-vous mit dem Tod (Rendez-vous with Death)

RED GOLDEN YEARS

Reading Between Lines That Have Never Been Written

I'm reading between lines that have never been written
I'm reading between lines that have never been written

Always reading between the lines
blind to the cadence you're using
seeing all the words just fine
but deaf to the images you're choosing

I'm reading between lines that have never been written
I'm reading between lines that have never been written

always asking obvious questions
I'm looking like an illiterate fool
I was reading the book upsidedown
now I'll never be seen as cool

I'm reading between lines that have never been written
I'm reading between lines that have never been written

always saying I feel fine but I don't
I think you know what I'm saying
but again I've had too much to smoke
and my head starts to swaying

I'm reading between lines that have never been written
I'm reading between lines that have never been written
I'm reading between lines that have never been written
I'm reading between lines that have never been written

Reading Between Lines That Have Never Been Written

It's Going to Change

don't I look lost again
don't I feel confused again
don't I sound distracted
not a big surprise

don't I seem stoned again
don't I feel confused again
don't I sound lost
not a big surprise 

but it's going to change

It's Going to Change

"to feel better"

lying thru my teeth
when  I tell you I'm feeling fine
I think you know what I'm saying
that I feel like hell all the time

I just want to feel 
I just want to feel better
I just want to feel better
I just want to feel 

lying thru your teeth
when you tell me you're feeling good
I think I know what you're saying
and if I could help you you know I would

I just want you to feel better
I just want you to feel 
I just want you to feel 
I just want you to feel better

lying thru my teeth
when I tell you I'm feeling fine
you think I know what you're saying
if I could help you you know I would

I just want to feel
I just want to feel better
I just want you to feel better
I just want you to feel

To Feel Better

"I Can't Believe Anything I Tell Myself"

I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself

I don't know why I lie to myself but I do
I lie to myself about you
I can't stand to tell myself the truth
so every night I fall for the ruse 

I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself

I lie to myself every night
I'm believing things that just can't be right
I can't stand to tell myself the truth
so every night I fall for the ruse

I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself

I don't know why I think you're thinking of me
it's like reading words no one else can see
I can't stand to tell myself the trust
so every night I fall for the ruse

I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself
I can't believe anything I tell myself

I Can't Believe Anything I Tell Myself

"The Muffled Twenties"

I never thought the roaring twenties
would take place behind a mask;
signs say no dimes or pennies, 
buying beer is a dangerous task.

I never thought the decade
would suck so much;
even in a lockdown downgrade
sanitize everything you touch

we're living in the muffled twenties
we're living in the muffled twenties
we're living in the muffled twenties

I called your name
from behind my mask
but you didn't hear me
I called your name
from behind my mask
but you didn't hear me

I never thought the week 
would start so bad;
pull my mask over my eyes
so you can't see I'm crying, sad

I never thought a month
would have such a bitter taste;
I want a refund
this one has been a waste

we're living in the muffled twenties
we're living in the muffled twenties

I called your name
from behind my mask
but you didn't hear me

we're living in the muffled twenties
we're living in the muffled twenties

the Muffled Twenties

"drifting away"

hey my thoughts are drifting away
can't recall what I want to say
I just know I meant it
hey my words are drifting away
I've been writing all day
still I've got nothing

hey my art is drifting away
I've been painting all day
still have a blank canvas
hey my song is drifting away
I've been trying to play
can't find the melody

hey my poetry is drifting away
I found some word play
but it had no meaning
hey my sound is drifting away
turned up the delay
and too much distortion
