Love is here
and always be
even with the broken chain
this lie remains to be
where I once found my home 
"sold" hangs under this for sale sign alone
Echos of laughter and joy bring me here
from all the walls of yesterdays gone lost tear
screams and fights, don't need remind
a sense of hope doesn't feel to familiar this time
repercussions of your crimes (broken tree)
Never excuse the time

Blame it on the sun
I've been thinking for some time you see
maybe it's not as bad as it seems
The guilty ones show me still nothing's changed
tell me how we can make the change
don't blame it on the sun
through the broken trees
Blame it on the sun

Au Bord Des Vagues

As a child growing up in Liverpool during the eighties, I witnessed first hand the struggles people had to endure because of the government’s neglect of our city. The government got away with neglecting its children, whilst Yosser and no doubt many like him had theirs taken away.

Yosser Hughes, the fictional character from Alan Bleasdale's incredible television series 'Boys from the Blackstuff', depicted a single father unable to find work whilst trying to look after his three children. 

The perception of Yosser back then, and probably still now is that he was a crazy, weak, and dangerous person. The reality though, is that Yosser’s behaviour was fuelled by many factors, not just povery, lack of work, and a broken relationship that we witness on screen.

Mental health awareness was zilch back then and most men today like Yosser find it impossible to talk about their struggles in life. This is largely due to the stigma of being perceived as weak. The only person he felt that he could open up to was a priest behind a veiled confessional box, who seemingly offered no help, support or guidance.

There will have been many traumatic events in Yossers life, all as a result of a cycle of poverty and lack of support and understanding that was generationally passed down. 

Yosser struggled on with his failing mental health, but clearly his love remained for his children. He kept looking for work, feeding his children, doing the best he could with what little he had. He like many was unfortunately doomed to succeed, and yet if he had been given help and support he could have brought his children up and been there for them. His wife, like Yosser just another casualty of the continuing cycle of victims, and sadly their children next.

Anyone struggling with their mental health should break free from the societal  stigma and speak to someone. You’re only human and can’t carry that weight alone. You are not alone and It’s ok to be vulnerable, it’s what makes us human. Just please ask someone for help!

Additionally, If you know someone who may be struggling with things, ask them if they want to talk, lend your ear, normalize their worries or concerns, and encourage them to seek help and support.

I NEVER PLAYED

Have you ever sensed the day as a glorious event to your life expectations
Have you ever sensed the day in a way that it matters only what you say

Demolish everyone you think he had played
I never played I never played

Have you ever sensed the night as a sheet of desires giving birth to light
Have you ever sensed the night in a way that your shadow always stay alongside

Demolish everyone you think he had played
I never played, I never played.

Guitar - Bill Barek
Vocals, Lyrics - Christos

Books of Worries - Tome after tome Remix

The latest in the Texas Tea series, this is Rusty Shackleford Rides Again.  Terry had the spark for this one.  Once I heard his ideas the guitar part kinda flowed naturally.  Terry did a killer job on the mix and final production as well. This is dedicated to one of our mutually admired cartoon icons.
