Invención A Tres Voces (Clavecín)

[Verse 1]
Packed my bags, left the shore,
Ventura sun, I’d see no more.
Dad had plans, we crossed the sea,
But in Geneva, it wasn’t meant to be.

At first, it felt like something new,
American school, a different view.
But then he left for Africa's call,
And I felt lost, I felt small.

[Pre-Chorus]
So I hit the rails, one-way ride,
Chasing something deep inside.
Through Spain, through Rome, the world flew by,
Under foreign stars, I learned to fly.

[Chorus]
Runaway train, don’t slow down,
Searching for a place where I won’t drown.
Through the mountains, through the sea,
Found a place where I could be free.

[Verse 2]
Athens nights and Cyprus skies,
Each new stop, a piece of life.
But my heart was set ahead,
To the Holy Land where my soul was led.

Half the day with hands in dirt,
Half the day where books would work.
Simple life, the air so clean,
It felt like waking from a dream.

[Pre-Chorus]
So I hit the rails, one-way ride,
Chasing something deep inside.
Through Spain, through Rome, the world flew by,
Under foreign stars, I learned to fly.

[Chorus]
Runaway train, don’t slow down,
Searching for a place where I won’t drown.
Through the mountains, through the sea,
Found a place where I could be free.

[Bridge]
Didn’t need a map, just a heart on fire,
Wanderer’s soul, climbing higher.
Maybe home’s not a place on a map,
But a feeling you chase and never look back.

[Outro]
Ventura’s waves still call my name,
But I’m not the same, I’ve changed my lane.
From Geneva’s halls to an open sky,
This is my life—I won't say goodbye.

[Final Chorus]
Runaway train, don’t slow down,
Searching for a place where I won’t drown.
Through the mountains, through the sea,
Found a place where I could be free.

Runaway Train

An electronic music sound, where Moog and Arturia synthesizers are used, as well as traditional instruments. Clean sounds and electronic music motifs are mixed in this music. I wanted to create a clean, pure atmosphere.

Little Ol Me Remix (Featuring Ruth Reid)

Minimalist piano piece for the right hand alone, evoking the imminent death of a star and its final transformation into a supernova. Written in a hypnotic and slow-moving harmonic language, the piece explores the contrast between the fragility of a collapsing structure and the immense energy stored within its explosion.

-------

Obra minimalista para piano (mano derecha sola), que evoca la inminente muerte de una estrella y su transformación final en una supernova. Escrita en un lenguaje armónico hipnótico y pausado, la pieza explora el contraste entre la fragilidad de una estructura colapsante y la energía contenida en su explosión.

Intro Progression:   

Emaj7(#11) > Em7♭6 > EM > E(b5) > G > em > C > A > B (Lead Melody) > G  > em > C > A > B 

 

Verse 1:  

(B) One hand on the wheel, one hand on the gun, her foot on the gas, on the run 

(G) She’s run away, (em) get away, (A) leave it all (C) behind, and (A) she’s (B) gone. 

 

Verse 2 

One bird in the air, that glare in the mirror, one last breath, the last thing he saw 

Had enough today, it’s done today, left it all behind, damn his soul 

(G) Cross that line no more, (em) I’m not your whore, (A) I’m done being scared, (C) yeah, (A) I’m (B) gone 

 

Chorus:  

(Emaj7(#11) So (Em7♭6) sweet (used to be) 

(Emaj7(#11) So (Em7♭6) sweet, (used to be) 

(Emaj7(#11) So (Em7♭6) sweet (finally free) 

 

Verse 3 

One bruise on her cheek, some blood her dress, his body on the side of the road 

Yeah, he’s gone today, for good today, one bullet in the front of his skull 

 

Verse 4 

Still wakes screaming at night, feels his hand on her throat, he throws her against the wall 

He broke her heart, broke her bones, he never broke her will, bless her soul  

He can’t hurt me no more, she tells herself, not anymore  

 

 

 

Chorus:  

So sweet (used to be), So sweet, (used to be), So sweet (finally free) 

 

Bridge:  

(Em7♭6) Into the sunset she drives, time to get on with her life 

(Esus4) I just want to be me she says, just want to be free from the pain 

(Em7♭6) Okay is still so far away, one mile at a time, until that day. 

(Esus4) I just want to be me, just want to be free from the pain  

 Chorus - Outtro

Sweet

Now I'm a part of you
I might just eat you through
The weeds will grow where the water does flow but the weeds don't bother me

Weeds don't bother me
Weeds don't bother me

Your fingers in my hair
I think I'm caught in your snare
Your hands do slide while my hands are tied but the burns don't bother me
Burns don't bother me
Burns don't bother me

The harder I tease
The harder you breathe
The more your skin is flushed in pink

It's a hallowed dance
A sweet romance
A bountiful feast for a carnivore

Now you're part of me
And I don't want to be free
It’s all hushed tones and muffled moans but who hears don't bother me
Who hears don't bother me
Who hears don't bother me

The harder I tease
The harder you breathe
The more your skin is flushed in pink
It's a hallowed dance
A sweet   romance
A bountiful feast for a carnivore

The sweetness never ends
And the salt of your skin
Brings me to my knees
A puppet to your every need

There's a want in your eyes 
A desire in disguise 
You can run, you can hide, you can let me inside 
You can feel what I feel, it's love and it's real, and the love don't bother me

Ride Along

I'm falling
I'm bleeding
It's all that I am feeling

It hurts me
It's scary
Just tell me "Am I living?

I'm falling
I'm bleeding
It's all that I am feeling

It hurts me
It's scary
Just tell me "Am I living?

All I've known is just a lie
I bear a mark that can't deny
It's time to face yourself in the eye

When the sky is starless
Then the darkest night begins
No surrender, no surrender! No!

I'm falling
I'm bleeding
It's all that I am feeling

It hurts me
It's scary
Just tell me "Am I living?

Denying flaws I'm mired
Trying to hide the flame I’ve fired
I have lost myself but now I will fight

You stole the stars from my sky
All that you said was just a lie
Now I hate you! Now I hate you oh

When the sky is starless
Then the darkest night begins
No surrender, no surrender! No!

I'm falling
I'm bleeding
It's all that I am feeling

It hurts me
It's scary
Just tell me "Am I living?
