TALK TO JESUS
music and lyrics by Mike Krath

I need someone to talk to,
Someone who hears what I say
Someone who listens when I speak
But who, who?


Not my mother,
She’s too busy,
Not my friends,
Only think of themselves
Not my cat,
She’s too lazy,
Not my father,
He is never around. 

Who, who do I go to?
Who, who do I go to?
Who, who do I go to?


Not my priest
He’s not a believer,
Not my brother,
He’s not always there,
Not my dog,
He doesn’t come when I call him,
Not my stylist,
He doesn’t know how to cut hair


Need to lay down
Need to lay down
Need to lay down
Need to lay down
Need to lay down
Need to lay down,
My soul. 

Lay it all down
Lay my soul down. 
Need to lay it all down
But who?
Who do I talk to?
8 billion people in this world
No one to talk to?
No one?
But…


Not my teacher,
He’s too academic
Not my sister,
She’s never off her phone,
Not my counselor 
He doesn’t know my name,
Not my coach
He never lets me play


Oh God,
Who do I call?
Who do I call
When no one listens?

I don’t want my life
To be a high school improv
A high school improv that 
Ends in (sound of gunfire)

Listen
Listen when I call
Who started this mess?
I didn’t ask to be here
I didn’t ask to be born

Give me someone to listen
Give me someone who understands me. 

Lay it down
Lay it down
Lay my soul down. 
Lay it…

'Talking To Myself Again' is a fusion track of two varying elements.

■ご注意を！
wahの練習です。
とってもうるさい曲なので、苦手な人は聴かない方が良いです。
でも・・アップロードしちゃったから仕方ない(^^;)

■ Be careful!
It is a practice of wah.
It's a very noisy song, so people who are not good at it should not listen to it.
But ... I uploaded it, so it can't be helped (^^;)

失意の中、想い出の海岸を歩く私。
どこまでも高い空・・・あの夏が遠く感じる。
あなたはもう、ここにはいないから・・。
そんな曲です。(深い意味はありません)

少し前に購入したwahを使う機会が無くてもったいないので、練習もかねて曲にしてみました。(Am→E→G→G#？みたいなループです・・多分)

In my disappointment, I walk along the beach of my memories.
The sky is so high ... I feel that summer is far away.
You're not here anymore ...
It's such a song. (There is no deep meaning)

I didn't have much chance to use the wah I bought a few months ago, so I tried to make it a song for practice. (It's a loop like Am → E → G → G #? ... maybe)

■歌詞
『心のままに』
ああ　恋にやぶれたら　心のままに　歩くのさ　湘南の海
ああ　トンビたちが舞う　肩を寄せ合わせる　恋人たちの空

あそーれ　あそーれ　あそーれそーれそーれ

二人で食べたね　鳩サブレ
江の島に架かる橋の上
二人で　見たね富士の山
浴衣のあなたが優しく笑う

まるで線香花火のようでした
まるで春の夜の夢のようでした

■ Lyrics
"As my heart goes"
Oh, if I have a broken heart, I'll walk as my heart goes. The sea of ​​Shonan
Oh, the black kites dance in the sky of lovers who are close to each other's shoulders

Asore Asore Asore Sore Sore

We ate it together, Hato Sablé
On the bridge over Enoshima
We saw it together, Mt. Fuji
You in a yukata laugh gently

It was like a sparkler
It was like a dream of a spring night

Something's a Hole in My Shoe
Music and Lyrics by Mike Krath

You may wonder why I’m doing nothing 
when you’re not around. 
It’s so easy to explain, so easy you see,
You know, it’s simply this, I’m doing nothing because, well,
Because you’re simply not here with me.

And something is nothing when you’re not around. 
Something is nothing when you’re not around. 
Something is nothing when you’re not around,
And you’re not here right now. 

Now I know anything is better than something 
When you have nothing better to do 
But since you’ve been gone anything is nothing,
And something’s a hole in my shoe. 

something’s a hole in my shoe.

I can’t find something,
Something to do when you’re not in town. 
And something is nothing when you’re not around. 
And when you’re not here, something is never found. 

And something is nothing when you’re not around. 
Something is nothing when you’re not around. 
Something is nothing when you’re not around,
And you’re not here right now. 

Now I know anything is better than something 
When you have nothing better to do 
But since you’ve been gone anything is nothing,
And something’s a hole in my shoe. 

something’s a hole in my shoe.
something’s a hole in my shoe.
something’s a hole in my shoe.

Something's a Hole in My Shoe

Long Away

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.
