Music Underwater

drip drip cavern dark
shivering shimmering
thoughts fly and spark

folding wings inside myself
hours of days accordion
who will come to help
                neversinkneversinkneversink


weak the arms fighting for me
in a tiny ocean
the belly of a beast
heard that drum once before
music underwater
the day I was born

deep inside this dare
drink the midnight cool
pray the mountain spirit spares

feel her breathe and sigh 
how to tell you mother
when we are eye to eye
                swimtoyouswimtoyouswimtoyou


weak the arms fighting for me
in a tiny ocean
the belly of a beast
I heard that drum once before
music underwater
the day I was born

Music Underwater

Yesterday I played a wedding in beautiful Jukkasjärvi, in the very north of Sweden. The couple getting married were two australians, Erin and Alisdair. I’d never met them before but Alisdair wrote and asked if I wanted to sing for them and he seemed sweet so I said yes. And since I was going to sing for them and had to write a song this week I figured why not make the song for them.

เพลง : เธอคือคำตอบ
ศิลปิน : ไม้เมือง

โลกสับสน เสียจน หาคนรักจริงยาก 
ใครคนไหน ที่คู่ควร จะฝากใจไว้ 
ใครจะคอยเคียงสานฝัน 
ด้วยกันแม้วันโชคร้าย 
ใครจะยืนยันสัญญาใจ 
มากมายเท่าดังชีวี 

* 
สำหรับฉัน มั่นใจ 
ว่าเธอคือคำตอบ 
ขีดถูกแล้ว ที่ตรง หัวใจดวงนี้ 
วันที่ล่วงเลยนั้นบอกมา 
ว่าเธอ เชื่อได้ว่าดี 
มีเธอคนหนึ่งเหมือนดั่งมี 
คนดี ทั้งโลกรวมกัน 

* 
คำว่ารัก นั้นใคร ก็พร่ำเพ้อกันได้ 
แต่ว่าใคร จะทำได้ อย่างที่พูดนั้น 
ใครจะเป็นเพื่อนเหมือนค่ำคืน 
ที่มี ดวงดาวและดวงจันทร์ 
ใครจะเป็นดังดวงตะวัน 
ช่วยคลายชีวีที่มืดมน

Sheebeg And Sheemore

"Of course, sir, I'll bring you the note 
Good evening sir, don't forget your coat.”
And thank you sir, for this tip of yours
This one will go to my nephews

Tough neighbourhood, no parenthood,
Family issues, a Pebble in my shoes
A choice between crime and an helping hand 
We didn't make the same in the end

All I see is luxury
When some men are barely free
I meet him as a prisoner
But he is nothing else than my brother

Chorus
If you look deep inside, you’ll only see :
A stronger being containing the old me.
An oozing gash close to be healed.
A flower on the remains of a battlefield.

I would have called her Clementine
Kiss her feet, her cheeks so many times
Teach her the guitar, 
sing her songs ‘bout how proud we are

Life's been taken from the baby I carried
Husband family friends all disagreed
About the way I was eager 
To become a mother
As the girl was already a teenager

The child didn't come from my womb
And the wait was 3 years long
Our skins are not the same color
But she’s nothing else than my daughter

Chorus
If you look deep inside, you’ll only see :
A stronger being containing the old me.
An oozing gash close to be healed.
A flower on the remains of a battlefield.

I’m the “man in the street”
Sharply dressed, looking neat
No one can see through me
Where I’m from and what I carry

My name is the only clue
Of what my family’s been through
The long journey away from home
In the dark times they used to roam

I was born in here
I belong here
But my people just see what I left behind me
I barely understand her culture
But she is nothing else than my mother

Chorus
If you look deep inside, you’ll only see :
A stronger being containing the old me.
An oozing gash close to be healed.
A flower on the remains of a battlefield.
If you look deep inside, you’ll only see :
A stronger being containing the old me.
An oozing gash close to be healed.
A flower on the remains of a battlefield.

Well, ya know in the end, I can't say that I'm not proud of what I've done
But I'm surely not the only one
