Dust In The Wind

A little demo song about appreciation,,,,,,,,,you know who you are…………..cheers for having a listen


You never ask for more than nothing
A kinder heart you couldn’t find
And what you have you’d gladly give
Always there, to ease my worried mind

And when the wind was angry
And the sky got dark
I’d listen to you sing
And the light would shine around you
And make me smile again
You kept me under your wing

A smile can say more than a thousand words
Among the noise it’s hard now to be heard
But you always got an ear to lend for sure
Never hesitate, to open up your door

And even in my darkest hour
When no one’s getting through
You showed me nothing but love
Your arms wrapped tight around me
Making me feel safe again
You kept me under your wing

Under Your Wing

My son came over and asked to help him revamp an old song of his to a Killer's sound.  Here's our attempt.

Lyrics

I’m a real vampire,
You are just a dreamer,
You can never, never, never, never, ever,
Be a real vampire,
Cause you’re just a dreamer,
You can never, never, never, never, ever,
Be like me.

Do you want to be like me?
Do you want to be like me?
You need to sleep all day,
And then we dance all night.
I’m saying…
Do you want to be like me?
Do you want to be like me?
You need to sleep all day,
Then we dance all night.
I’m saying…
Do you want to be like me?
Do you want to be like me?
You need to sleep all day,
Then we dance all night.
I’m saying…

I'm a Real Vampire

WHEN THE DEVIL STOPPED ROCKING

In a house where shadows creep,
Sat the Devil, lost in deep,
Rocking slow with hollow eyes,
Trapped between the truth and lies.

Then she came with lips so bold,
Eyes like fire, heart so cold,
Spoke a word so pure, so bright,
Made the darkness fear the light.

The chair won’t creak, won’t move at all,
Since the day he took the fall.
Love was whispered, tore his soul,
Now he fears what makes us whole.

His claws did shake, his skin turned pale,
As echoes sang a lover’s tale,
No more tricks, no wicked games,
Love had burned his cursed knives.

His claws did shake, his skin turned pale,
As echoes sang a lover’s tale,
No more tricks, no wicked games,
Love had burned his cursed name.

Now the chair just stands alone,
Like a king without a throne,
Silent, still, forever bare,
No more Devil rocking there.

The chair won’t creak, won’t move at all,
Since the day he took the fall.
Love was whispered, tore his soul,
Now he fears what makes us whole.

The chair won’t creak, won’t move at all,
Since the day he took the fall.
Love was whispered, tore his soul,
Now he fears what makes us whole.

Midnight winds still call his name,
But he won’t return again,
One small word had struck him deep,
Now the Devil dares not speak.

The chair won’t creak, won’t move at all,
Since the day he took the fall.
Love was whispered, tore his soul,
Now he fears what makes us whole.

When the Devil Stopped Rocking

I wrote and revised this song based on a short story I wrote about a date gone horribly wrong.

“No! She can’t be here already!” He ran into his bedroom, slammed the door and fell on his plush, king-size bed. He started to breath heavy and then…then…he started to flap his arms in excitement—a very rare type of involuntary movement. “Quack! Quack!” 

Frank Loves Chara

Lyrics

Frank loved Chara
And Chara loved Frank
But when the doorbell rang,
Frank’s heart sank
His poor heart sank.
And he ran upstairs
And started to quack.

Chara was coming
Chara was coming for dinner
And she was thirty minutes early
And he hadn’t cooked one dish
Much less two.
And he couldn’t stop flapping his arms
This was not the start of best date for two.

Frank loved Chara,
And Chara loved Frank
And Chara smiled
And Chara clapped
And she knocked on the door
Waiting for Frank to open.

But Frank was upstairs,
Locked in his room
Flapping his arms
Frank had quacked up
This was not Frank’s day.
But Chara she just stayed.

Chara was coming
Chara was coming for dinner
And Frank was flapping his arms upstairs
And there was not much they could do
Except have the worst start of a date for two.

Frank loved Chara

A country version of my original song.  I think country better expresses the singer's lament.

I Saw a Man in the Dark
Music and Lyrics: Mike Krath
artificially enhanced using SUNO

Lyrics

I saw a man in the dark
last night
It wasn’t me,
Couldn’t be,
Shouldn’t be,
Oh no. 

I saw a man give in
to himself
It wasn’t me, 
couldn’t be,
Shouldn’t be
oh no.

Days and days
And months between
And years and years
And no between
And what is left
But solid thoughts
Of wasted opportunities 
And life goes on,
Keeps going on
When I just want to quit

Did I love my children,
their friends,
my spouse,
will my love be
in their memories
when I'm gone?

I saw a man in the dark
last night
It wasn’t me,
Couldn’t be,
Shouldn’t be,
Oh no.

I Saw a Man in the Dark

Lyrics

Hey, Hey,
Hey, Hey

The marbles I just got back in my brain,
Have fallen out and rolled away again,
Rolled away again. 

All because you made me mad,
By all you did and said,
You drove me mad again
By all you did and said.

The marbles I just got back in my brain,
Fell out and rolled away, instead.
And now you tell me the sun is shining
To burn away all my gray,

And you stepped on my hands,
Trying to pick myself up,
All in a beautiful disarray. 

Interlude

The marbles I just got back in my brain,
Have fallen out and rolled away again,
Rolled away again. 

Ha-ha, and you're not even sad,
and I'm stark raving mad,
Ha-ha, and you're not even sad,
and I'm stark raving mad,

Ha-ha, you taught me how to laugh again.
And you're not even sad,
And I'm stark raving mad.

The marbles I just got back in my brain,
Have fallen out and rolled away again,
Rolled away again. 
But all in a beautiful disarray,
All in a beautiful disarray.

Rolled Away Again

Here We Are Once Again
Music and Lyrics: Mike Krath

Lyrics

Well…here we are once again,
Alone in this cafe,
The place we began as friends,
All on a sunny day.
While everyone else sat outside,
Watching the world go by,
We sat and fell in love,
Thanks to the by and by.

Chorus 
Here we are once again,
At the table where it all began,
Eating food and enjoying life,
And with you … my wife.

Verse 2
Do you hear the birds outside
Chirping loudly above?
What was passed down from years ago
When we first confessed our love
Overheard when we were young,
And now repeated from the beaks of doves,
Can you hear them? It’s easy.
They’re all singing our song.

Chorus 
Here we are once again,
At the table where it all began,
Eating food and enjoying life,
And with you … my wife.

Verse 3
Oh…I can’t think of anywhere else,
I’d rather be,
Than with the memories of you and I here,
Having our first cup of tea.
And to cherish this very moment,
With the woman I adore,
Nothing could make me any happier,
Or to want anything more.

Here We Are Once Again

Minute to Midnight

With a Cheap Stone
Lyrics and Music: Mike Krath
artificially enhanced using SUNO

Lyrics

I had a sister
Who died too soon
Sixteen years
What could I do
Announced by my mother
Who’s now dead too
Both died young
What could I do
Harden my heart,
But life broke through.
like a cheap stone
A cheap stone.
Just like a cheap stone.

On and on,
Life goes on,
On and on,
with a heart of stone
On and on,
Life goes on,
But with a cheap stone,
Just a cheap stone.

I’ve had friends,
Who died too soon
twenties, thirties,
What could I do
Announced by my friends
who loved them, too
All died young
What could I do,
Harden my heart,
But life broke through.
like a cheap stone
A cheap stone.
Just like a cheap stone.

Interlude

On and on,
Life goes on,
On and on,
with hearts of stone
On and on,
Life goes on,
But with a cheap stone,
Just a cheap stone.

With a Cheap Stone

she's got an easy smile
she's got an easy way
a sadness, gentle and kind
like an old familiar friend

like water

she's a great companion
always there by your side
she's got an old soul
the kind you like to know

like water

hmm, and you want her
like water

she will pick you up
when you're feeling down
and she understands
when you're not around

like water

Backwards (2025) – The Collision of Pride and Redemption A heavy head on dive into the tension between rebellion and grace, Backwards thrashes with raw conviction. The heavy riffs and haunting lyrics mirror the spiritual battlefield as pride fights to hold on, while surrender shatters the chains. When we find ourselves to be caught between resistance and renewal. Remember, redemption through Jesus doesn’t ask to be earned. It arrives, unexpectedly, as a gift, turning everything backwards.

Backwards

My new song [Verse]
I saw the moon hide behind the trees
Whispering secrets to the breeze
It’s quiet now but my heart screams
I can’t lose you

[Prechorus]
Every step feels like a fall
Every word a wrecking ball

[Chorus]
I can’t lose you no no no
Like a kite with no sky to go
Like a flame without its glow
I can’t lose you no no no

[Verse 2]
The clock ticks loud like it’s mocking me
Stealing moments like a thief at sea
I’m a shipwreck where you used to be
I can’t lose you

[Bridge]
What’s the sun without its fire
What’s a dream without desire
What’s a song without the choir
It’s nothing it’s nothing

[Chorus]
I can’t lose you no no no
Like a river with nowhere to flow
Like a star that forgot to show
I can’t lose you no no no

I Can't Lose You

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.
