Karl for 8/3/24

the light fades behind the sky
soon the darkness will fill your eyes
I'll show you places most would rather ignore
ten thousand years will pass before we are sure 
what to do with this life quickly passing by you
gonna do something crazy tonight
I got a feeling tonight
free all the thoughts I've been trying to hide from this world
in the back of my mind
who unheeded their warning her wrath aims at you
your lines are attached to a weight sinking under its too late now to break free try to stand, lose your grip and just laugh as you think about all the reasons you had not to smile well how ironic to find you're gonna leave like you never arrived in the dead of the night
your roof is caving your walls crashing in
still I'm the fool wishing you'd let me in
and I can sense it this feeling within 
I know its gonna be closing in

Mike Molino: Piano, vocals, lyrics;  Dave Ferrairo: Guitar;   Greg Scappicchio: Bass;  Doug Melanson: Drums

Closing In

Written in the days after the horrific events of 9/11/01, we will never forget
Live performance of this song via this YouTube link @35:39  https://youtu.be/vNWWxwTwmEo?feature=shared

don't try to figure out what she's whispering 
it's always all about what she's missing
a sweeter spice to taste a bitter life to waste
these walls you have outgrown now lock me in 
the place that you call home's without me its another space in time we left it all behind
go fly now you're home free into the night
can't help but feeling something ain't right
you're mind rejects believing a world of fright lingers in your head
but don't think twice, go, life is more beautiful in motion 
A smile to your eyes as I'm grieving
silent to your ears as I'm screaming everything is gonna work out, right?
I wrote a song after you left that day I called it beautiful in motion as a warm sun turned to shade and let the shadows drown
go fly now you're home free into the night
can't help but feeling something ain't right
you're just afraid of finding a world that might not be the same again
but don't think twice, go, life is more beautiful in motion
I wrote a song after you left that day I called it beautiful in motion as a warm sun turned to shade and let the shadows drown 
I wrote a song after you left that day I called it beautiful in motion as a warm sun turned to gray and let the shadows drown 
as it turned to gray and they drowned as it turned to gray
life is more beautiful in motion, motion, motion

Mike Molino: Piano, Vocals, lyrics;   Dave Ferrairo: Guitar, Bass, Drums

Beautiful In Motion

Watch me perform this song live on Metal Head Hippie W.A.R.P. show 11/15/22, time stamp 4:34 youtu.be/jcKIKlIJlyo
he was the only one who had a plan
nobody else knew where to go
care without fear of popular demand
that's what a leader's made of
now we're moving backwards
i can see it coming again
look around and soon you'll find your enemy's your only friend
does anybody remember laughter
was that carefree child really me? 
did you get what you were after? 
what was that and how did I turn to me?
We'll never reach our destination without a place to start
finger on the trigger back up against the wall
go ahead and take the first shot
or realize that my agenda benefits all
every destination needs a place to start
I'm not a destination but a place to
it would be so easy just to give up now
but I try, as I bleed, I must succeed
never could've done what I did if it wasn't for the ones I did it for
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
hey mister sister why so much enraged
nobody wants to hear you...
spin like a twister pointing all this blame
when was the last time you did anything for someone else
one common goal one aspiration peace in all our hearts
we'll never reach that destination without a place to start
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
everybody needs everybody

A Place To Start

Watch me perform this song live on Metal Head Hippie W.A.R.P. show 11/15/22, time stamp 4:40 youtu.be/jcKIKlIJlyo

Its not you Its not me adjust the scene
I’ve been on a chainsaw fantasy 
High and low extreme no in between
Just left side right side red or green
So long you tired blues
So long we got the strength to choose
Who to be what to see so set your scene
a teaser, pleaser whatever you want to be
Just not a full time lover, that’s much too clean I’m fixing on a whole new scene
Think I finally found my better song that’s what they called it that’s what they called it
How’d it take so long to get where you belong hate when I fade away love when I come back 
Not a crime to live out fantasies
She can eat your cake but save your pie for me 
Now we’re on the scene that makes you scream
There’s no restriction just keep coming back to me
So strong we’ll never lose
So wrong we’re breaking all the rules
All the things we want or thought we’d need
If less is more we’ll have it all so come with me
And be a full time lover who’s not that clean and beat me at my own damn scene
Think I finally found my better song that’s what they called it that’s what they called it
How’d it take so long to get where you belong hate when I fade away love when I come back
Think I finally found my better song 
How’d it take so long to get where you belong hate when I fade away love when I come back to you
I’m not a full time lover that’s much too clean I’m fixing on a whole new scene
Think I finally found my better song that’s what they called it that’s what they called it
How’d it take so long to get where you belong hate when I fade away love when I come back
Think I finally found my better song 
How’d it take so long to get where you belong hate when I fade away love when I come back to you

Who’s losing now
Who’s passed out on the floor
So lost since we’ve been found
The love is here no more 
Dizzy over hang
The in between’s a blur
I swear I was not wrong 
The fruit we ate was pure 
She was an angel
She was an angel strangled tempted by the demons’ escape 
I can’t breathe I break with every move you make
I can’t breathe I break with every sip you take 
I can’t breathe I break each vile a mistake
I can’t breathe I break it’s all that I can take the demons escape
I know, where does time go walked for miles passed right by ohhh she was an angel 
Who’s losing now 
The love is here no more

Take our time in the road
cause we ain't got nowhere to go
but only up from here after an all time low and if I thought you'd care I'd say I love you but we'll just close our eyes and let go
Leave me baby
Hold me maybe
Either way we'll learn to grow survive and find our road home and make it up from here
I'll lead the way and if you don't follow you'll still find your road home and make it up from here
Hatred breeding out of control
while blessed with what some will never know
Can't take that back after what you say when its in the past you'll regret someday and give anything to be here again
Leave me baby
Hold me maybe
Either way we'll learn to grow survive and find our road home and make it up from here
I'll lead the way and if you don't follow you'll still find your road home and make it up from here
Hold me baby you drive me crazy
I'm not going anywhere but if you want to leave you can go right now
Either way we'll learn to grow survive and find our road home and make it up from here
I'll lead the way and if you don't follow you'll still find your road home and make it up from here
