I love this - massively Tom Waits in its flavourings - I could imagine Tom covering this - love it Matthew x

Great track man! Especially loved the organ, keep up the good work! :D

I do not own the rights to this music which is merely an experiment involving edits and samples from 4 different tribes in Africa. Additional overdubs were added by myself.

No One Can Hide (from the musical Waiting to Adore)
 
I’ve seen through the wakings of sorrow
A need that has begun
Memories can’t explain what tomorrow brings 
For these lonely ones

The day I would finally start 
Just to follow my devotion
Something sparks inside where 
No one can hide their demons

Just one I await like the sun
Till these darker days are done
Free me I’m besieged by this grief 
And the tide has nearly come
  
The day I would finally start 
Just to follow my devotion
Something sparks inside where 
No one can hide their demons

Some day if I could catch just a trace 
Of a singular emotion she’d recall
Realities from memories of what was  
If I could be the one to conquer these with a love
 
One can hide their demons 
Where? No one can hide their demons
If no one can hide from us…….

Inside where no one can hide 
The demons of the mind

No One Can Hide

It's Alright- (re uploaded as requested :) x)

outside is very hot. you're not there. I feel a great emptiness around me. something still beats inside my chest. it's too hot outside and inside it is very cold.

A Social Barrier Thing

By Matthew Martinek
 An invitation to immortality from a vampire's perspective.

All Aboard


All Aboard
In time I'd think you'd walk my way 
While strolling through the park someday 
But unlike all my prey 
Your choice I need
They call to me I can't ignore 
I know just what they're waiting for 
It's just who's taking score 
That haunts my dreams
All Aboard 
All Aboard upon my dreams
If faith you can't afford 
I'll tell you all the things in store 
Or are you only just the source 
Of my mistake?
Soon the light will show 
But in darkness you will know 
If I'm the only soul who's left to call your name
So call to me I can't ignore 
I know just what you're waiting for 
It's just who's taking score 
That haunts my dreams tonight 
I suppose you need only walk my way 
Or stay here where you feel betrayed 
It's no use anyway 
The hour I feed
All Aboard 
Upon my dreams

Including "Virtual Man" and "Waiting to Adore", "What Nobody Knows" would be the third song I have uploaded from the musical "Waiting to Adore" about multiple personalities and unconditional love..  Act 2 starts with "What Nobody Knows" and tells how the lead character has made the decision to let his heart absorb the guilt as he attempts to make them all happy and be the man of all their dreams until he begins to fall for the seemingly stable, newest manifestation of his wife's many personalities. There are many worse he could be cursed with but from this one his heart has lifted and so continues his efforts to maintain this secret and he will know what nobody knows if fate was ever his to control.........as he vows to never let them take her away.   Lyrics-       
 What Nobody Knows
 
Through time I've seen 
Many She's been, 
But deem this one can be relied on
She doesn't seem to notice she's a mystery
But feels that I am
Or maybe she believes 
This life is just a dream we're both apart of
While caught between realities 
And memories I seek  of her love

Why can't they be all real to me 
If they don't notice any difference
If I'm to face a new replacement 
If they can't remain consistent
To my amazement
Through her phases
I'm an actor gone the distance
And I will be the man it seems 
Of all their dreams without resistance   

And we will know what nobody knows
If fate was ever mine to control
I know just what it is they would say
They'd only want to take her away

These roles I'll play 
Until the day 
That she is whole 
If I'm persistent
Yet always I'm amazed 
By ways their histories and memories differ
And for today if this one stays
Then you must know how much I'll miss her

And we will know what nobody knows
If fate was ever ours to control 
I know just what it is they would say
They'd only want to take her away                                

And we will know what nobody knows
If fate was ever mine to control
And we will be anybody they need
Amnesia was their gift from me
It makes them easier to hold
They always ask me
And I don't know
But do know what it is they would say
They'd like life so much better this way

Some call it supernatural
Life can't always be so wonderful
So beware who you dare think you know
It's only what their eyes will show………..
