Cigarettes And Alcohol [2021]

White Light

The Saddest Song I Know

Nor blanket of kindness, nor blanket of snow.
Covers me whole. Makes no inroads from...
The giant black smoke stack that bellows and blows.
Oh, how it blows. 
Blows out and blows.

Oh, please, oh, please.
Save me, from me.
Eloise, in your garden of love.
Oh, please, won't you please.
Save me, from being me.
Eloise, in your garden of love.

The choices I make must sit right in my head.
Eloise. Come with me.
If I make the wrong choice, I'll wish I were dead.
Eloise, we could be...
So happy you joined us, though you're rather late.
Honey, please, Set me free.
Now eat everything that we put on your plate.
On my knees, work with me.

Oh, please, won't you please.
Save me from just me.
Eloise, in your garden of love.
Oh, please, please, please.
Save me, save me, save me.
Eloise, in your garden of love.

Now I'm walking and talking.
And barely forestalling this breakdown.
Won't come free.
Eloise, in the garden of love.
I walk and I talk.
And say all the words I'm supposed to say now.
Alter me. 
Eloise, in your garden of love.

Some sort of third verse that explains the first two.
Eloise. Follow me?
The storm in your mind can't contain what you do.
Eloise. Follow me?

Oh, please, won't you please.
Save me, only me.
Eloise, with your garden of love.
Oh, please, please, please.
Save me, me, me.
Eloise, with your garden of love.

I'm walking, I'm baulking.
I'm right on the edge of a breakdown.
From the fee.
Eloise. Eloise  Eloise.
I can't walk, and I can't talk.
I can't alter the words that you say now.
Fancy free. 
Eloise. 
In your garden of love.

The choices I make must sit right in my head.
If I make the wrong choice, I'll wish I were dead.
Eloise in your garden of love.











Eloise

Looks over to me.
It's over. Let's face it, we're done.
No-hurdles-to overcome, 
As we shot for the sun.
Or the moon.
A premature peaking... 

look over at me.
We can't deny this is the end.
Refuse-to-bend for you. 
Just a thorn in my shoe.
A hindrance too.
A mill stone.

The soft summer breeze 
Has forsaken the trees,
The leaves are just falling on you. 
As the light and the shade, go their seperate ways.
It's over, its over, its over.

It's over for me.
The half smile which led t'ward the dance.
Another-chance to score.
Would we want anymore.
Had we known what's in store.
We head toward the door.

It's over for me.
No glance as we pass in the hall. 
Against-the-wall we fell. 
Nothing left here to sell.
Drunk too deep from the well.
Now we're done.

The soft summer winds.
Become bellowing zephyrs 
Separate one into two.
As the day and the night, part in evening's light.
It's over, its over, its over.

It's hard to beleive we could be so naive...
Or that we were both ever so young...
It's...

...over to you.
I'll leave it and see what you do.
A-pointed turn of the screw.
Schemes that used to amuse.
Come across as a ruse, 
We easily bruise.
Sending...

Over to you.
There's not a lot for us to say.
A break away. 
New days: blow the cobwebs away.
The shattered remains.
Once was Rome.

The soft summer breeze 
Has forsaken the trees,
The leaves are just falling on you. 
As the light and the shade, go their seperate ways.
It's over, its over, its over.

Over To You

Stop The Cavalry [Jona Lewie Cover]

Quoth me a figure for the mountain of beans, that I think I might need to be done.
How much can I need just to set myself free and to let myself breathe? Can't be wrong?
Buy me a pot for my river of dreams, to contain all my schemes, when I'm gone.
I'll buy up the lot and consume it or not. What is mine? Was it yours all along?

Oh, give me a home where the antelope roam, gyre and gimble, and play.
Where a strong melody catches on to the breeze, 
stays in their ears for the rest of their days.

Tell me your medicine, tell me your cure, and I'll show you a ball with a chain.
Just to be rid of want, ain't about the piquant, it's the smile that you give to the rain.
You kids think you're clever rebellious things when you're smoking up, brewing up, reins.
See, you're playing the game. 
It's the "others" refrain,  just so easy to deal with insane.

Oh , give me the win, let the antelope sing, gyre and gimble, and play.
Let my sure melody, catch the rythym and breeze, echo for eternity, with no fade.

A pile of grey plastic to soothe any blisters that can not be seen on the soul.
A selfie, acquaintance, a work friend, repentance, a tenner, reluctance, the dole.
A shiny new TV that links to the world with a series of infinite taps.
A pricey new  never-up-ending appliance to really put you on the map.

Oh, show me the road, where the antelope cope, gyre and gimble, and play.
Let my melody sing as my spark glows within...

A bill paying, consuming, full-fledged member, an eagle eyed user of woods.
The good boys club isn't accepting new members, I think that you misunderstood.
A shiny gold cloak that masks up your existence will just fall away in the end.
A doctor, a seamstress, a lover, a mistress, a cleaner, a banker, a friend.

Oh, give me a home where the antelope roam, gyre and gimble, and play.
Where a strong melody catches on to the breeze, stays in their ears for the rest of their days.



The Consumer

Hold me so close, don't you ever let go.
We both knew this ship had been loaded too low.
There's a sign somewhere saying we entered here at our own risk.
Oh, hold me, but let out the rope.
Just holding back from abysses and lows.
I'll keep you away from the things that I see when I'm down...

Shoulders upright, as the world hacks away, at my roots as I stumble and fall along the way.
Who's to pick me up off of the floor at the end of the night.
I'll face up to forever and go.
Out in the world full of confidence, knowing.
Always some hole I can crawl into when I'm back down....

All complicit, at the end of the day.
So easy to chase.
It's hard to admit that I'm wrong.
When I'm wrong.
The tossing and turning of turbulent night.
We all start to swing when we're losing the fight, and we're wrong.
And we're wrong...

Hold me so close, don't you ever let go.
The winter winds bite and the shadows they grow.
The walls that we build up will flatten the bridges we mend.
So just kiss me and never let go.
I'll hold your head when you're laid in the snow.
You just ignore anything I say when I get down...

Eternity hits at the end of the day.
There's more than one way.
It's hard to admit that I'm wrong.
When I'm wrong.
The fire still burns through the un-ending night.
It's tempting swing when you're losing the fight, and you're wrong.
And you're wrong...

The redemption just takes the pleasure away.
No endless debates.
It's hard to admit that I'm wrong.
When I'm wrong.
The fire still burns and competes with the night.
So easy to swing when you're losing the fight and you're wrong.
And you're wrong...

Hold me so close, don't you ever let go.
We both know this ship had been loaded too low.
There's a sign somewhere saying, we entered here at our own risk.
So just kiss me and never let go.
I'll hold back you from the demons below.
I'll keep myself to myself when I feel a bit down...

Let Go

Wake up late, stay in bed
The cats want food and I play dead
Out for a walk, there’s such a chill
Avoid the mail, avoid the bills

These are the days, when I have learned to let it go
These are the days that are so crushing for my soul
These are the days I am acting like a bum
And I’m out of work, and I feel like I’m the only one

Make the bed, clean the house
Cook some food I’m feeling proud
Look for work another day
You’re rejected is all that they say

These are the days, when I have learned to let it go
These are the days that are so crushing for my soul
These are the days I am acting like a bum
And I’m out of work, and I feel like I’m the only one

You made your bed sir
You made your bed sir
But I want to live, And I want to have fun

Go to the park, with a sandwich wrapped
And say hello to the senior chaps
Hope to meet the opposite sex
But oh my gosh, I just met my ex

These are the days, when I have learned to let it go
These are the days that are so crushing for my soul
These are the days I am acting like a bum
And I’m out of work, and I feel like I’m the only one

The Only One

Been Being Be

One person band, banging on various instruments in Texas. I like a variety of genres, so I tend to be all over the place in my songs and compositions. I just like playing with sound 🤘
