**Verse 1**  
Well, the sky’s dark, and the booze is gone,  
Tired of your crap and your phony song,  
You swagger in with your silver tongue,  
But I’ve had my fill, you goddamn bum.

**Pre-Chorus**  
And this night’s a mess, I’m at my brink,  
Your bullshit stinks, and I need a drink,  
So here’s to your lies and the crap you borrow,  
Screw your nonsense, I’m done with tomorrow.

**Chorus**  
Raise a glass to the crap you spew,  
And let’s toast to the mess you threw,  
For the lies you peddled and the deals you flubbed,  
I’m sick of your nonsense, you useless schlub,  
Here’s to the end of your crappy show,  
To the cheap tricks and the lies you sowed.

**Verse 2**  
In this dive bar with a sneer and a brew,  
Watching you dance, I’m through with you,  
Every story you told was a load of junk,  
Now I’m just pissed and I’m calling you a punk.

**Pre-Chorus**  
And the night’s a wreck, your game’s a joke,  
I see through your bullshit, you sneaky crook,  
To the crap you sold and the mess you’ve swallowed,  
Screw your nonsense, I’m done with tomorrow.

**Chorus**  
Raise a glass to the crap you spew,  
And let’s toast to the mess you threw,  
For the lies you peddled and the deals you flubbed,  
I’m sick of your nonsense, you useless schlub,  
Here’s to the end of your crappy show,  
To the cheap tricks and the lies you sowed.

**Bridge**  
When the stars die and the booze runs dry,  
I’ll laugh at this night and I’ll say goodbye,  
With a middle finger and a final laugh,  
I’m done with your shit, now go take a bath.

**Chorus**  
Raise a glass to the crap you spew,  
And let’s toast to the mess you threw,  
For the lies you peddled and the deals you flubbed,  
I’m sick of your nonsense, you useless schlub,  
Here’s to the end of your crappy show,  
To the cheap tricks and the lies you sowed.

**Outro**  
So here’s to your stunts and all your lies,  
I’m done with your nonsense, and here’s my goodbyes,  
To the past, to your crap, and to your dirty tricks,  
Cheers to the end, now get your fix.

Goddamn Bum

After spending a few weeks listening to Jim Croce, I felt inspired to try my hand at writing a folk song. It really hit me just how much talent we lost with him, and how much the music scene has changed since. This song is far from perfect, but it was a lot of fun to create. And, by the way, there was no Mary – but then again, I’m not sure there was ever a Leroy Brown either.

I’m Just a Dreamer

Our Memory

"잊혀진 잉크의 등불"
이 서늘한 노래는 지식 추구에 헌신하다가 그가 살던 집의 복도를 헤매게 된 학자의 유령 이야기를 들려줍니다. 지적 헌신에서 오는 고독과 죽음 후에도 지속되는 연결에 대한 갈망을 탐구하며, 잊혀진 등불의 희미한 빛으로 상징화됩니다.

Verse 1
어둠 속에 그림자 흐르는 길,
학자의 유령, 잠 못 이루는 길.
잊혀진 잉크 담긴 등불 빛,
적었던 말들, 아무도 읽지 못했지.
책장 가득 고대의 벽,
그의 외로운 소리 들려주는 증인.
지혜를 얻었지만, 삶은 지나갔고,
진리를 찾아 사랑을 놓쳤네.

Chorus
등불은 빛나지만 방은 차갑고,
지혜는 이야기 속에 새겨졌네.
빛을 찾았지만 길을 잃고,
이제 밤낮으로 헤매네.
잉크 속에 그의 영혼이 담겨,
숨겨진 말들의 죄수가 되었네.
등불의 빛은 희미하게 깜빡이고,
될 수 있었던 것들의 메아리만 남았네.

Verse 2
그의 펜은 종이에 춤추었지만,
이제는 공중에 떠다니네.
잉크는 신선했지만, 이제는 사라지고,
잃어버린 우정처럼, 치러야 할 대가.
고요 속에 속삭임이 시작되고,
잊혀진 마음의 조각들.
별을 쫓았지만, 새벽을 잃었고,
지혜를 찾다가 삶은 사라졌네.

Chorus
등불은 빛나지만 방은 차갑고,
지혜는 이야기 속에 새겨졌네.
빛을 찾았지만 길을 잃고,
이제 밤낮으로 헤매네.
잉크 속에 그의 영혼이 담겨,
숨겨진 말들의 죄수가 되었네.
등불의 빛은 희미하게 깜빡이고,
될 수 있었던 것들의 메아리만 남았네.

Bridge
끝없는 책 속을 헛되이 뒤지며,
고통을 덜어줄 답을 찾네.
하지만 잉크는 마르고, 페이지는 닳아,
학자의 마음 속에 고요한 애도가 흐르네.
등불은 안내하지만 아무도 보지 못하고,
그가 흘린 눈물은 보이지 않네.
고독 속에 그는 방황하며,
집 없는 영혼이 되었네.

Chorus
등불은 빛나지만 방은 차갑고,
지혜는 이야기 속에 새겨졌네.
빛을 찾았지만 길을 잃고,
이제 밤낮으로 헤매네.
잉크 속에 그의 영혼이 담겨,
숨겨진 말들의 죄수가 되었네.
등불의 빛은 희미하게 깜빡이고,
될 수 있었던 것들의 메아리만 남았네.

Outro
학자의 홀의 고요 속에서,
등불은 마지막 그림자를 드리우네.
지식의 삶, 시간 속에 잊혀지고,
모든 단어 속에 고요한 종소리가 울리네.
잉크는 사라질지라도, 유령은 남아,
자신이 만든 사슬 속을 방황하네.
등불은 희미해지고, 밤이 찾아오며,
영원히 남겨진 이야기.

Verse 1
In the dim-lit halls where shadows creep,
A ghostly scholar walks in endless sleep.
His lantern glows with forgotten ink,
Filled with words he penned, yet none to drink.
Bookshelves line the ancient walls,
Silent witnesses to his lonely calls.
Knowledge gained but life passed by,
In search of truth, he let love die.

Chorus
The lantern glows, but the room is cold,
Wisdom etched in stories untold.
He sought the light, but lost the way,
Now he wanders night and day.
In the ink, his soul resides,
A prisoner of the words he hides.
The lantern’s light, it flickers dim,
Echoes of what could have been.

Verse 2
His quill once danced on parchment fair,
Now it hovers in the empty air.
The ink, once fresh, now fades away,
Like the friendships lost, the price to pay.
In the stillness, whispers start,
Fragments of a forgotten heart.
He chased the stars, but lost the dawn,
In the quest for wisdom, life was gone.

Chorus
The lantern glows, but the room is cold,
Wisdom etched in stories untold.
He sought the light, but lost the way,
Now he wanders night and day.
In the ink, his soul resides,
A prisoner of the words he hides.
The lantern’s light, it flickers dim,
Echoes of what could have been.

Bridge
Through endless tomes, he sifts in vain,
Seeking answers to ease the pain.
But the ink runs dry, the pages worn,
In the scholar’s heart, a silent mourn.
His lantern guides, but none can see,
The tears he shed for what might be.
In solitude, he’s bound to roam,
A spirit lost without a home.

Chorus
The lantern glows, but the room is cold,
Wisdom etched in stories untold.
He sought the light, but lost the way,
Now he wanders night and day.
In the ink, his soul resides,
A prisoner of the words he hides.
The lantern’s light, it flickers dim,
Echoes of what could have been.

Outro
In the silence of the scholar’s hall,
The lantern casts its final pall.
A life of knowledge, lost to time,
In every word, a silent chime.
The ink may fade, but the ghost remains,
Wandering through his self-made chains.
The lantern fades, the night takes hold,
A story left, forever untold.

Whispers of the Morning Star

The Lantern Of Forgotten Ink

This song paints a picture of the Earth as seen from different altitudes. As we soar higher, the beauty of what we’ve left behind becomes more apparent, reminding us of the destruction we’ve caused on the ground below.

The Higher We Fly

The poem honors the country's resilience in the face of historical adversities, its democratic values, scientific achievements, and cultural richness.

Canvas Of Courage

This song captures the emotional turmoil of feeling unseen and unheard in a crowded world. With vivid imagery and heartfelt lyrics, it reflects a personal journey through loneliness and invisibility. The opening lines depict waking up in a bustling space yet feeling isolated under the weight of unacknowledged struggles. The recurring theme of invisibility resonates as the singer grapples with the duality of a smiling facade hiding deep pain. Each verse explores the longing for connection and belonging, while the chorus poignantly asks for recognition and understanding amid silence. The imagery of wearing scars like armor speaks to resilience, hinting at a desire to break free from emotional barriers. Ultimately, the song is an anthem for anyone who has felt lost in the shadows, expressing hope for recognition and the courage to chase dreams despite feeling invisible.

Invisible

In the realm of pure spirituality (Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah)

Song lyrics by Nik Bear Brown https://soundcloud.com/nik-bear-brown

In the realm of pure spirituality,
Shines a soul with divine clarity (ooh-yeah),
Gayatri, oh beauty and grace,
Your radiance illuminates every space.

Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah,
The eternal chant,
Bringing solace, emotions enchant,
Tat Savitur Varenyam,
The choice supreme,
Guiding hearts towards eternal dreams.

Gayatri, epitome of love and light (love and light),
Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah, your soul takes flight (takes flight),
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi, our minds align (our minds align),
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat, let our spirits shine (oh-oh-oh).

Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah,
The eternal chant,
Bringing solace, emotions enchant,
Tat Savitur Varenyam, the choice supreme,
Guiding hearts towards eternal dreams.

Gayatri, epitome of love and light (love and light),
Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah, your soul takes flight (takes flight),
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi, our minds align (our minds align),
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat, let our spirits shine (oh-oh-oh).

Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah,
Tat Savitur Varenyam,
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi,
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat.

Gayatri, epitome of love and light (love and light),
Om Bhoor-Bhuvah Svah, your soul takes flight (takes flight),
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi, our minds align (our minds align),
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat, let our spirits shine (oh-oh-oh).

Take One -- In The Realm Of Pure Spirituality (Om Bhoor - Bhuvah Svah)

She﻿﻿ walks between the﻿ lines​​ оf light,
A silhouette﻿ that﻿﻿ fades from sight.
Her dreams are locked behind closed doors,
She’s scared​ tо﻿﻿ live, but﻿﻿ wants much more.

The nights are﻿﻿ long,﻿ they﻿﻿ never end,
The stars, they mock—they﻿﻿ don’t pretend.
She wonders​​ іf she’ll ever find
A way​ tо﻿﻿ leave﻿ this﻿﻿ shell behind.

Pre-Chorus
She’s​​ a﻿ ghost​ іn​​ a crowded room,
A flower that’ll﻿﻿ never bloom.
But​​ іn her shadow,﻿ hides​​ a flame,
And﻿﻿ maybe he’s the same.

Chorus
She’s the rain﻿ that﻿﻿ never falls,
A distant﻿ echo​​ іn the halls.
She﻿﻿ hides her heart, but﻿﻿ wears her pain,
In​​ a﻿﻿ world﻿ that﻿ feels​​ sо far away.
And he’s the mirror​​ tо her soul,
The shattered pieces make them whole.
They’re﻿ both﻿﻿ alone but﻿﻿ never gone,
Two midnight﻿﻿ souls that sing one song.

Verse﻿ 2
He﻿﻿ hides beneath the moonless skies,
A walking﻿ mask,​​ a thin disguise.
His mind’s​​ a maze﻿ with​​ nо escape,
A broken﻿ heart​ he﻿﻿ can’t reshape.

They﻿ share​​ a silence​​ sо profound,
Like whispers lost without​​ a sound.
He doesn’t know she﻿﻿ feels the same,
Both﻿ lost​ іn﻿﻿ their unspoken pain.

Pre-Chorus
They’re shadows chasing fading light,
A﻿﻿ storm﻿ that﻿ never﻿ takes​​ tо flight.
But​​ іn the﻿﻿ dark, they intertwine,
Two﻿﻿ souls﻿ lost​​ іn time.

Chorus
She’s the rain﻿ that﻿﻿ never falls,
A distant﻿ echo​​ іn the halls.
She﻿﻿ hides her heart, but﻿﻿ wears her pain,
In​​ a﻿﻿ world﻿ that﻿ feels​​ sо far away.
And he’s the mirror​​ tо her soul,
The shattered pieces make them whole.
They’re﻿ both﻿﻿ alone but﻿﻿ never gone,
Two midnight﻿﻿ souls that sing one song.

Bridge
If only﻿ they﻿﻿ could see they’re not alone,
Two broken hearts﻿ that﻿ could​​ be home.
But﻿ fear​​ іs louder than the truth,
It drowns the echoes​ оf﻿﻿ their youth.
So they’ll keep fading into night,
Two﻿﻿ stars﻿ that﻿﻿ never burn too bright.

Outro
She dreams​ оf﻿﻿ being someone else,
But doesn’t see he’s just himself.
Two shadows passing​​ іn the dark,
Two halves​​ оf one unspoken spark.
If only﻿ they﻿﻿ could take the leap,
Maybe they’d﻿ find​​ a﻿ place​​ tо sleep.

Silhouette

Summers Rain

[Verse 1]
Through the night, we rise, we’re unbroken,
Bound by beats and words unspoken.
In the dark, our hearts ignite,
Shining brighter, chasing light.
Every pulse, a step to freedom,
Moving closer, where dreams lead ’em.

[Pre-Chorus]
Feel it build, the energy flows,
In the rhythm, every soul knows.
As we lift, higher and free,
Lost together, you and me.
With each note, we take flight,
Soaring on in endless night.

[Chorus]
We’re alive in the sound, and we’re here to stay,
In the rhythm, finding our place.
Where love is loud and light is pure,
Music heals, we find the cure.
With every beat, our souls align,
Bound by music, hearts entwine.

[Verse 2]
Every face, a story untold,
Together we’re young, never old.
In the surge, we shed our fears,
Feel the magic as it nears.
Rising high, our voices blend,
In this sound, where all things mend.

[Pre-Chorus]
Feel it build, the energy flows,
In the rhythm, every soul knows.
As we lift, higher and free,
Lost together, you and me.
With each note, we take flight,
Soaring on in endless night.

[Chorus]
We’re alive in the sound, and we’re here to stay,
In the rhythm, finding our place.
Where love is loud and light is pure,
Music heals, we find the cure.
With every beat, our souls align,
Bound by music, hearts entwine.

[Bridge]
Let the sound become our wings,
Lifted by what the music brings.
In this moment, we let go,
Together strong, forever flow.
Through every peak, through every fall,
We rise again, and hear the call.

[Outro]
In the silence, we find what’s real,
Layers fade, only truth we feel.
Beyond the shadows, beyond the night,
We rise to meet the fading light.
In every heartbeat, our journey’s shown,
A quiet strength that’s all our own.

[Chorus]
We’re alive in the sound, and we’re here to stay,
In the rhythm, finding our place.
Where love is loud and light is pure,
Music heals, we find the cure.
With every beat, our souls align,
Bound by music, hearts entwine.
