This was my third collaborative song with Rodolfo, which we started in 2020. The original instrumental piece he gave me sounded like determined optimism and at that particular moment the pandemic made its way into anything I wrote although the beauty of the song is that anyone can bring their own interpretation to its meaning. Its original title was ‘Camino a Mañana’, that I translated as ‘The Route To Tomorrow’ - I guess I liked the alliteration - even though it was a bit of a tongue twister to sing.

I instantly loved the rhythmic punch of this track and recognised early on that it would require a punchy lyric and vocal. Initially I sung the harmony vocals that Rodolfo devised, but as we later developed into the band ‘Continental Collision’ it made sense to draw on all of the talent available in Ce and Gonza, and here introducing Cintia Galeano. Huge thanks to my wonderfully gifted collaborators, you helped make this song shine. I was stunned (as always) by Rodolfo’s attention to detail, his glorious guitar solos and particularly the drumming throughout. Although I might not add to the instrumentation personally, Rodolfo always encourages me to give him feedback. I am particularly fond of this collaboration and each time we work together I learn so much more. Hope you enjoy it too and many thanks for listening. 

Finding the way,
To get through night and day,
Is just too much.
Making your way
Once more through the fray,
Without losing touch,
Is too much,
For me, yeah.

Waiting in line, 
With no hint of a sign,
Is just too much.
Pretending I’m fine 
Knowing that you’re not mine,
It’s too, it’s just too much,
For me,
All of the time.

This is the route to tomorrow,
Beg, steal or borrow,
To getting through to the other side of all this sorrow.
This is the route to tomorrow,
That I have to follow,
To make it through to the other side of all this sorrow.

I’ll be OK, 
Whatever they say,
I can take it.
Know I can’t stay,
Gotta get me away
From here.
Before it gets too much for me, here.

I can survive,    
I might even just thrive.
If I make it.
I’m still alive,
Watch me as I arrive,
At the other side of all this pain and sorrow  

This is the route to tomorrow,
Beg, steal or borrow,
To getting through to the other side of all this sorrow.
This is the route to tomorrow,
That I have to follow,
To make it through to the other side of all this sorrow.

Die Brücke 

Wieder habe ich Dich in meinen Träumen verpasst
Ein Tag, wie viele andere zuvor
Wir kennen uns noch nicht
Aber kenne ich mich denn selbst schon gut genug?
Irgendwann fing es an
Deine Bilder schmücken den Moment
In dem ich mich verlier
Und zu mir finde
Und zu uns finde
---------------- 
Solange Du da bist
Auf der anderen Seite der Brücke
Deine Bilder, erdrücken die Stille in mir
Solange Du da bist
Deine Bilder, sie schweigen
Kälte fällt auf mich, in der ich erfrier
Erfrier!
---------- 
Wird das, was wir dort finden
Das was wir schon haben zerstören
——————
Vielleicht 1000 Schritte weit
Vielleicht nur 1 000 Momente noch Zeit
Bis zur anderen Seite der Brücke 
Irgendwann
Von Anfang an
———————
Jemand müsste den Anfang machen
den ersten Schritt
einen Fuß vor den anderen
Wie weit kann ich gehen? 
Noch kann ich Dich nicht sehen
Aber sind wir bereit?
Bin ich bereit?
---------- 
Wird das, was wir dort finden
Das was wir schon haben zerstören
——————
Vielleicht 1000 Schritte weit
Vielleicht nur 1 000 Momente noch Zeit
Bis zur anderen Seite der Brücke 
Irgendwann
Von Anfang an

Die Brücke - Rock Flexible

This is very short song written by Eric Feltham, and when he asked me to add vocals I was thrilled to do so..  Durge then added his vocals, and this beautiful angelic harmony came into being with his help.  This is a very unique and short instrumental track but I dare say it holds quite a bit of fascination.  It was a pleasure to work with Eric, and Durge and I are thrilled we could tag along on this Avantgarde excursion off the D&D beaten track.

My old mac  dieth a death so here's a bit of a kitchen table bash around .   My fingers are not what they were so i play what i can find.  someday I'll probably wind up bashing out a beat with my head on the refrigerator and singing along. I hope you are all well. If you're dead you'll obviously know it's nothing to worry about...                                I woke up this morning or at least I think that I did...I found my medication and I wrestled with the lid....my bathroom mirror is telling me that I'm not half the man I used to be.....

. I've got a hole in my gut I'm really feeling my age, I'm paying the price for my wicked little ways, I was out last night with a woman from the moon, she says that better days are coming and they're coming soon but I ain't half the man I used to be.

Half the Man. ( Stevek )

When you're the shore
I want be the wave
Spreading over you
With warmth and light force
Deep penetrating in your mind
Making you wet and warm
Making you happy and breathless

Lovers in Space

Well I almost scrapped this song but after 3 weeks writing words, and then realizing how fun it is to sing, i kept it. I'm trying to figure out how to add a little lightheartedness to my music, but i think this one just turned out creepy lol. NOTE:  I always felt a little uncomfortable with the words, i just really didn't like them, so I reworked the chorus and a few other lines, and rerecorded the vocals. It seems a little better now...
 

I've seen my own worst enemy
Every night just staring back at me
Through the mirror with such animosity
And baby, it drives me crazy
I don’t understand what’s with this guy,
He don’t know that he’s alive
He combs his hair on the wrong side

I don’t expect you to understand,
But I’ve got these hammers for my hands
I like to start with everything
and smash away what I don’t need
and scattered all around are the pieces off of me
oh baby can’t you see what this done has to me

It’s a strange strange situation 
I need a little information
If it’s real or just imagination
Don’t say it’s so, I can’t believe 
Its down to you and me again
Up against the world my friend
Who can say   how this will end
 
It’s 3am and you’re slamming doors
Cause ‘I don’t speak your language anymore’
While I’m on my knees picking pieces
Of me up off the floor, 
I can’t lose much more, these pieces could be the last of me,
I wish I could see the way you see
is there anything left in this debris

Hammer Hands

Lest go for a walk along a beautiful Beach, surf running, birds singing, feel the cold sand beneath your feet, feel the freedom hear the world as it really is. Come walk with me on a beautiful beach in County Wexford, Ireland. Feel the freedom that only nature offers.

This is the story of an elderly gentleman who succumbed to the charms of a beautiful young woman and was only used by her for her own ends.

Such a big disappointment
I feel like I´m being used
as I´m sitting here in silence
just hurt and so confused

I wasn´t     much more than     your stepping stone
a stupid     sugar daddy     who paid it all alone

you made me     think we were     more than just friends
you took all     that I had     every song, every cent

INTRO

Such a great enchantment
your voice can make tough men cry
once you get the attention
your beauty blinds the guys

BRIDGE    ohohoho

CHORUS

INTRO

Such a huge illusion
all the promises you broke
among all guys you´ve been foolin'
I was just another bloke

BRIDGE   ohoho
