Lyrics written by Natalie Vega

Morning light spills softly on my face
The world’s still spinning, but I’ve found my place
Every storm that tried to shake my soul
Only made the quiet mean much more

I used to chase the noise
Now I just choose the joy
And in this gentle hush, I hear His voice

This golden stillness, it’s my safe embrace
A quiet treasure I could never replace
When the night falls heavy, I don’t lose my way
Peace is the promise that’s here to stay

I see the wildflowers sway without fear
They don’t rush tomorrow, they just bloom here
Every breath’s a gift I hold so tight
In the arms of grace, I sleep at night

I used to chase the noise
Now I just choose the joy
And in this gentle hush, I hear His voice

This golden stillness, it’s my safe embrace
A quiet treasure I could never replace
When the night falls heavy, I don’t lose my way
Peace is the promise that’s here to stay

The world can roar, the winds can shake
But here inside, no fear will take
The calm He gave, it holds me near
My heart’s at home, my path is clear

This golden stillness, it’s my safe embrace
A quiet treasure I could never replace
When the night falls heavy, I don’t lose my way
Peace is the promise that’s here to stay

(4 February)the beginning [first day] of spring (in the traditional Japanese calendar).

The first spring embrace you

Small

White Cloud Blues

A little folksy ramble about mortality, electricity and such things. 

When I wrote this I was thinking of when I was standing in my old hallway a few years ago. I was watching the lights from an overhead thunderstorm through the retro glass front door. It was the kind of storm where you could feel the strange sensations around your body from the electric charge in the atmosphere. It was such a charge that it somehow managed to ring the front door bell moments before a deluge. To me it was both poetic and a little bit freaky.

Persian sunlight
Wrapped in rugs that trapped it
In your memory so bright

Oxpecker scars
Feasted on your shoulders
As you fast

You have hovered like a kestrel
Watched the winter turn to petrichor
You have followed thunderstorms
Through minds-eye-skies and charge
The bell to your front door

You still resist
A quench for you temptation
And the dead will desist

So much to leave
Before you reach your senses
And can breathe

You have hovered like a kestrel
Watched the winter turn to petrichor
You have followed thunderstorms
Through minds-eye-skies and charge
The bell to your front door

Petrichor

There are no words that I can say
To take the pain away
I write a phrase and hit delete
I write again, and then repeat

What do you say to someone who's lost everything
What do you say when there's nothing left to fight
I want to scream but there's no one to scream at
There must be someone to blame, right?

You turn to me for comfort and strength 
And I fail to give you what you expect
Soothing words turn to dust on my lips
Consolation I cannot give

What do you say to someone who's lost everything
What do you say when there's nothing left to fight
I want to scream but there's no one to scream at
There must be someone to blame, right?

Those who say everything happens for a reason
Should stay the hell away from me
Cos in a world full of madmen and villains
Why take the gentle and let the monsters run free

What do you say to someone who's lost everything
What do you say when there's nothing left to fight
I want to scream but there's no one to scream at
There must be someone to blame, right?

Paix sur la terre 
Paix sur les hommes 

Paix sur la terre 
Paix sur la terre
Paix sur la terre

Paix sur les hommes
Que ces mots vides et creux enfin sonnent et résonnent 
Relayés, déployés 
Et frissonnent plus fort que ne peut briller l'or

Ô messagers de l'air aux gorges mirifiques
Sur tous les continents
Sonnez l'alarme douce 

Sonnez l'alarme douce
Et ouvrez tous les yeux
Et ouvrez tous les cœurs
Et ouvrez tous les yeux
Et ouvrez tous les cœurs

Sonnez l'alarme douce et ouvrez tous les yeux
Et ouvrez tout le chœur

Donnez chair 
Donnez corps à cette aspiration
Que chaque être porte en lui
Et même s'il l'ignore
Du début de sa vie jusqu'à l'heure de sa mort

Sonnez sonnez sonnez sonnez l'alarme douce...

translation:
Peace on earth
Peace over men

Peace on earth
Peace on earth
Peace on earth

Peace over men
May these empty and hollow words finally ring and ring
Relayed, deployed
And shudder louder than gold can shine

O messengers of the air with wonderful gorges
On all continents
Ring the soft alarm

Ring the soft alarm
And open all your eyes
And open all hearts
And open all your eyes
And open all hearts

Ring the sweet alarm and open all eyes
And open the whole choir

Give flesh
Give substance to this aspiration
That each being carries within him
And even if he ignores it
From the beginning of his life until the hour of his death

Ring ring ring ring the soft alarm ...
