Barn finds vol.4

Living a life that I can't contain
I guess it's all my fault
Run through the wild with the scars I keep
They remind me of where I'm from
--------------------------------------------------------
Oh, numb my mind / I've lost my sight
So come at night / And taste a bite
--------------------------------------------------------
Scratch away from the skin
You said you wanted to go again
Well now it's time to sink or swim
Oh, my words are running thin
In a river full of lies
Yeah, the truth comes out in time
By that time, I hope your wise
Until then, you're running blind
--------------------------------------------------------
Reaching for things that I can't hold onto
I'm losing all my grip
Sailing the sea on half a plank
I'm on a sinking ship
--------------------------------------------------------
Oh, let me in / Inside your mind
You're still right here / You've lost the fight
So give right in / Oh, sink or swim
You have no choice / Oh, in the end
--------------------------------------------------------
*cheesy drum roll i made on fl studio*
--------------------------------------------------------
Scratch away from the skin
You said you wanted to go again
Well now it's time to sink or swim
Oh, my words are running thin
In a river full of lies
Yeah, the truth comes out in time
By that time, I hope your wise
Until then, you're running blind

Sink or Swim

From the album ‘Trust No Leaders’ by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. Released July 1, 2022. 

// Shaman
'Shaman' narrates a journey of self discovery into the depths of one's psyche. Guided by Jungian psychoanalytic theory, the song captures a personal confrontation with the unconscious in which one experiences the infinite and the energy of the universe. The song introduces the idea of attaining wholeness by uniting our inner and outer worlds.

LYRICS

I hear something call to me
The tide inside ebbs more and more
Before me lay a door
A door that was never there before
Here I was
Purged of all things
A new sun
A new dawning
I will knock
And I will enter
Ready to be free

Let me
Let me in
Lead me
To the end of the world
Let me
Let me in
Lead me
To the end of the world

Behind the door was a narrow passage
Darkness without shadow or trace
I let myself fall into a deep well
Down into the abyss
I was carried away by the current
Not knowing where it would lead to
Into the ocean of infinite worlds
The sea of all souls

A warmness is rising
It grows in me like a tree
There I realised, one is not born
But slowly grows whole
In the light of the new morning
There you are
In the garden where our fruit grows
Where we will reap and sow

I am flowing
I am formless
Floating through
Oceans of infinity
I am glowing
Incandescent
Light the way
Back to the ocean's door

Strip away
What is fake
Dig deep
Show your face
Strip away
What is fake
Dig deep
Show your face

Face your nature
Face your fears
Face your demons
Wake the dead
Face your nature
Face your fears
Face your demons
Wake the dead

Strip away
What is fake
Dig deep
Show your face
Strip away
What is fake
Dig deep
Show your face

Face your nature
Face your fears
Face your demons
Wake the dead
Face your nature
Face your fears
Face your demons
Face to face

The End of the Century

90's influence Guitar Rock cultivated in Metro Detroit.

I remember, we thought of everything. We had it down, or was it in between?
I had my legs to get me there. A hike to nevermore.
Searching for infinity, railing through the door......moving forward?

So I seized the day just like I did before, and I'm fading out.
It's the little things that keep me wanting more. Now I'm fading out.

Opportunity is bought and never sold. Wait a tired lifetime just to take control.....of a broken situation, of barely getting by.
A concept of prosperity impossible to divide.
Moving forward?

So I bare the weight just like I did before. Now I'm fading out.
And I found the things that leave me needing more. So I'm fading out.

Impossible to divide.

So I lost the hope I always had before, and I'm fading out.
It's just the little things that make me hate you more. Now I'm fading out.

Fading

Anomie

"Electric Fireflies" is a gothic rock anthem that blends raw guitar energy with haunting, ethereal vocals. Set against a backdrop of stormy skies and neon-lit ruins, the track captures the tension between beauty and decay, light and shadow. Like fireflies flickering through the darkness, it pulses with electricity, melancholy, and defiance — a sound both otherworldly and alive."

Produced by EileenNoise

Lyrics

Verse
Light's low buzzin'
Neon hum burns through
Shadows crawl
Walls whisper a lost tune
Electric fireflies
Dance in the dark air
Static pulse heartbeat—don’t dare care

[Chorus]
We ignite in the spark
Sky bleeds alive
Wires hum
Thunder screams
Stay deprived
The energy in veins pumps lifeless glow
We’re alive in the current
Yet we don’t know

[Verse 2]
Smoke curls up
Like ghosts haunt the steel
Electric truth slices sharp
We can’t feel
Boundless rhythm crushes
Hollows deep inside
We stray further and further
No place to hide

[Chorus]
We ignite in the spark
Sky bleeds alive
Wires hum
Thunder screams
Stay deprived
The energy in veins pumps lifeless glow
We’re alive in the current
Yet we don’t know

[Bridge]
(Ooh, yeah!) Feel it buzzin’
Feel it burn
Lost in the circuit
No return
Flicker-fade
But we stay in line
(Ooh-yeah!) Forever caught in the shine

[Chorus]
We ignite in the spark
Sky bleeds alive
Wires hum
Thunder screams
Stay deprived
The energy in veins pumps lifeless glow
We’re alive in the current
Yet we don’t know

Electric Fireflies

She was a killer!

In Your Arms - Combstead & Robert Grigg

Chasing the Wind is a soulful reflection on ambition, dreams, and the endless pursuit of something just out of reach. With atmospheric melodies and inspired lyrics, this track invites listeners into a world where hope and struggle dance together. Perfect for late-night drives and moments of deep thought, 'Chasing the Wind' captures the bittersweet beauty of chasing what we believe in — even when it feels impossible.

“Chasing the Wind” is my debut release—an introduction to a full catalog of music I’ll be unveiling piece by piece as each track is completed. This song is designed to be accessible and emotionally resonant, while still maintaining a distinct edge that sets it apart. It blends melodic appeal with lyrical depth, offering listeners a pleasant and thought-provoking sound. The lyrics balance instruction and inspiration, inviting listeners to reflect, grow, and move forward. This is just the beginning of a larger artistic journey, and “Chasing the Wind” sets the tone for what’s to come.



[Verse 1]
Working, waiting, wasting time
Wanting what I cannot find
Water flowing to the sea
Seasons spinning endlessly
Same sun rising every day
Same stars fading far away

[Chorus]
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Finding peace from within
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Til I learn just to begin

[Verse 2]
Building towers made of sand
Counting coins in trembling hands
Time is turning, turning still
Like a wheel against my will
Everything I try to keep
Slips away while I sleep

[Chorus]
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Finding peace from within
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Til I learn to begin

[Bridge]
Stop - breathe - see
What's right in front of me
Stop - breathe - be
The truth has set me free
Stop - breathe - Heal
Finally I can feel
Stop reveal
What's simple can be real


[Final Verse]
Now I watch the birds in flight
Feel the breeze and hold it tight
See the flowers break and bend
As the morning starts again
In the simple, in the small
Find the meaning of it all

[Chorus]
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Finding peace from within
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Til I learn to begin
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
I'm chasing the wind again
Finding peace that lives within
I'm chasing the wind again
Round and round without an end
Now I know how to begin

Chasing the Wind

Another banger track with no reference during the making, but somehow there's a 90's Metallica kind of influence within it!

Forsake The Underworld

Lyrics:

The night is cold and I'm standin' in the rain
Your taillights fade, burnin' out our flame
I fall to my knees for a moment in pain
But I wipe away my tears 'cause I'm done with your game

I'm rising from the ashes, got my head held high
So don't you come back running 'cause I ain't gonna cry (No!) 

Broke the chains around my heart, now I'm ready to fly
You'll wake up alone and wish you'd never said goodbye
I'm dancing in the spotlight, my fire's burning bright
'Cause I'm on top of the world and baby it's your loss tonight!

I'm burnin' down the highway, got a new song to sing
No lookin' back now 'cause I got nothin' to fear
Your memory's fading fast as I kick into top gear
My stereo's blastin' loud and I'm doin' my thing 

I'm rising from the ashes, got my head held high
So don't you come crawling back 'cause I ain't gonna cry

Broke the chains around my heart, now I'm ready to fly
You'll wake up alone and wish you'd never said goodbye
I'm dancing in the spotlight, my fire's burning bright
'Cause I'm on top of the world and baby it's your loss tonight!

Babe, you thought I'd be lost when you walked away
But I put myself back together and I'm doing okay
All the tears that I cried, I set them on fire
Now the flames of my freedom are burnin' higher

Broke the chains around my heart, now I'm ready to fly
You'll wake up alone and wish you'd never said goodbye

Your Loss Tonight

Psychosomatic Hypochondriac 2025 (feat. Kristopher Bolin)

The time we have to live and be with our loved ones is actually very short, but there are many people who ruin it by destroying themselves. I wish I wasn't like that.

a ruined wish

This song is a heartfelt tribute to the incredible journey Joan Lass Duffie and I shared when we first started dating. It's a reminder that even when we're looking for different things in life, love can bring us together in the most unexpected ways.

Another World [Fractured Frequency Mix]

I gave my lyrics to Udio and asked it for some country rock. It came back with this sort of Tex Mex/Bob Dylan Rolling Thunder Review type vibe which took me back to when I was living in Cornwall and growing my own bread... or something. 🤨

Maybe I think about you
More than I should.
She makes you happy
More than I ever could.
She shines like the sun
I’m just damaged goods. 

Nothing needs to be said
It’s best to stay mum. 
Our destiny’s clear
There’s no hope to come,
But I want you to know 
Before this life is done 

I have never ever ever
Met a man just like you,
Over a million lives
And a million miles
That I’ve passed through.

I don’t want you to feel weird
There’s nothing to be done
Our love’s not for this life
Maybe another one 
She is the rose
And I am the thorn
To prick your eyes to tears
Before our first dawn
Over all I’ve seen and been

If we’d both been born
In another time and place
It would have been different
But that’s not our fate. 
You’re at peace with yours
In a land faraway 
What more can I say, but 

I have never ever ever
Met a man just like you,
Over a million lives
Over a million miles
No-one even came close

I have never ever ever
Met a man just like you
Over a million lives
And a million miles
That I’ve passed through

Million Lives

Lyrics:

Forgive me for what I've done,
Just sing me the lullaby.
Those torn wings won't make you fly,
But please, just believe this time.

Lost past hides the light from me,
Still trapped in regret and dark...
Intentions of restless mind,
To make up what could've been...

A lifetime of guilt within,
Pulled under the soothing lie,
Anemic and anchored with
Cold halo you left behind.

So vulnerable...

Daylight tones the dust
From the unsettling hunt for peace,
Chained down to past.
Chimera's voices' lied!
I'm so lost and vulnerable...

Lost
