Are Long Gone
Music and Lyrics: Mike Krath

Lyrics

Remember me,
I used to live here
When we were young,
When we had fun,
But those days,
I’m sad to say,
Are long gone.   

I used to be near,
When you weren’t strong
I was by your side
Even when you were wrong,

Was she as good to you
As I would’ve been?
Did she take all the dreams we had
And make them come true in the end

Or was what we had when we first begun
Nothing but a lie. 

Remember me,
I used to live here
When we were young,
When we had fun,
But those days,
I’m sad to say,
Are long gone.   

Are long gone (x5)

Experimental magic 🧙‍♂️

Influenced by rock icons such as John Fogerty and Bruce Springsteen

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.

I enjoy producing upbeat tracks spanning a range of pop styles. I really hope you have fun listening to them. I write my tracks using GarageBand and hopefully I am improving my writing, arranging and production skills. I do not use AI in any of my compositions.
