Verse]
Most of my life, 
I’ve worn this mask
Chasing dreams, 
Chasing the crave 
That sex ,
money,
cars bring ,
but the shadows they cast
Changed me 
Living a  flashy life, 
fake and brash 
Empty heart
cash couldn't mend my broken past

[Verse 2]
Lost in lust, 
I hired love for the night
Darkened soul, 
searching for the light
Hotel rooms, never felt so tight
Smilin' wide, but the pain outta sight
Tried to be ,
that someone else ( until you came along) 

[Chorus]
Wanted to be more than just a show
Someone real, not a headline show
Life in the fast lane, but slow on growing
Walkin' away from the lies I used to know
Just wanted to ,be
that someone, someone else
until I met you [ you ]
(Tonight , I finally am. )[ yes I am ]

[Bridge]
No more Fake thrills, empty bills, 
My void filled
No more Actin' like a king 
and  always unfulfilled
( oh no, not tonight I’m not ) 
Played the part, but the role almost 
killed me 
Livin' a story so fake,
took fate ,to rebuild it [ oh girl it is you who rebuilt me ]

[Verse 3]
Shiny car, but the engine was full of, bulletproof lies
Friends were frauds
Thought I had it all but felt cold inside
Hated that guy that envy can't disguise
( until I met you ) 

[Verse 4]
Tossed the mask, threw the keys on the floor
Left the shadows, walked straight out the door
From the echo of a past I can't ignore
Finally found the self I've searched for.
( oh girl, you mended this broken heart )

any young man
listening to these
lyrics [ yeah listen to them ]
don’t ever let
anyone else tell
you, that , 
you are not 
good enough [ yeah , let no one ]

Cause You Are ( my girl, cause tonight, I don’t need to be that, [ someone else ]

[Intro]

[Verse]
Cold walls
rising tall high above my head
Chains clinking loud
I hear the footsteps tread
Echoes laughing
shadows creeping where I lay

[Chorus]
Prison bars
oh they hold me tight
Prison bars
stealing my sunlight
But I’ll break through
I’ll break through tonight
[I’m Elvis , let’s do the Jailhouse Rock now]   [Uh-huh-huh]

[Verse]
Dreams of freedom
running wild in my brain
Rusty locks
mocking me
driving me insane
The clock ticks slow
like a hammer on my heart
[Prechorus]
But the wind’s still howling
And the fire’s still burning

[Chorus]
Prison bars
oh they hold me tight
Prison bars
stealing my sunlight
But I’ll break through
I’ll break through tonight
[whose coming with me?]
[Presley is my name]
[ I’m doing the Jailhouse Rock now ]
[Uh-huh-huh]

[Bridge]
Ain’t no chains
that can cage my soul
Ain’t no lock
that can keep me whole
Every crack in the wall’s
a step to my flight
[My freedom]
(No bars are holding me in tonight)
[None]

[Break]
[Jailhouse Rock guys, lets go ]
[Uh-huh-huh]
[Thank you, thank you very much]
Elvis has left the jail. [ha, ha, ha]
Ain’t no Prison Bars holding the King in.

Prison_Bars ( A Joy Rock N Roll Blues Tribute )

Avery Raquel’s new single “The Letter” is a heartfelt ballad that captures the delicate moment when friendship begins to blur into love. Told from her perspective after receiving a handwritten letter by her close friend, the song explores the vulnerability of confessing hidden feelings, the fear of change, and the hope of something deeper. With Avery’s signature soul-infused delivery, “The Letter” blends emotional storytelling with tender melodies, pulling listeners into a timeless narrative of love, longing, and honesty.

Musically, the track is stripped back and intimate, allowing Avery’s warm, emotive vocals to take centre stage. Gentle piano lines and subtle string-like elements give the song a classic ballad feel, while her modern Alternative Soul style keeps it fresh and relatable. It’s the kind of song that resonates across generations, evoking the quiet intensity of young love but with the depth and maturity of Avery’s songwriting.


The Letter

Thru The Phone 2

Coming home, but it’s not
The same home walked away from
Cross the threshold, air smell funny
Furniture turned around

Change the way we see the world
Sideways line, up and down
Sunrise in the
Wrong part of the sky

Morning happening all day long
Afternoon blues til evening come

Words spoken in familiar tongue, but
Jumbled order
Having trouble understanding 
Ain’t the way supposed to go

Can’t fix the leaky roof
Puddled on the floor
Rotten core


Morning All Day

⚠️ Warning 1:
May cause the listener to feel like they’ve just stepped into a James Bond film. Side effects include imagining yourself in a tailored suit, gripping the wheel of an Aston Martin, and believing this song is your personal theme as it builds with every turn. Proceed with caution.

⚠️ Warning 2:
May cause the listener to start browsing listings for Pagani's, Ferraris, GTRs, or vintage Porsches “just for night drives.” Side effects include spontaneous highway runs with no destination, cinematic stares at dashboard reflections, and a deep conviction that the city soundtrack was made for you.

⚠️ Warning 3:
May cause the listener to feel like the singer is actually talking to them, please, she ain’t talking to you, bro 😆. Side effects include overanalyzing every lyric, texting your ex “this reminded me of you,” and staring out the window like you’re in a music video. Relax, it’s just a song… or is it?

Night Drive (Pagani Mix)

I had left the pastorate in 1985 but many friends remained in the little town of St. Francis, Kansas.  One of them was a woman who found love again after the death of her spouse.  I composed this song for them and officiated their wedding and as far as I know, they lived happily ever after.  
Then came the wedding of my oldest daughter and she requested the song be done for her and Thor (yes, his real name;) That was 27 years ago.  
This past summer, I had suggested the song to Axel and after hearing my rough, 35 year old demo, he loved the song straight away, but wanted to change it up a bit.  The song I had written was done in a more devotional 4/4 meter, he wanted to bring to it the flavor of a Celtic dance.  Enter Mike Fox who gives the lyrics a definitive voice and excellent guitar to the backing track.  I loved the track art Axel had created because it resembled the wedding of my 2nd granddaughter Grace at the end of September, a lovely garden ceremony in Oklahoma City.  It resembles it right down to the kilt another son-in-law wore by request.  They didn't use the song as part of their ceremony, but I dedicate this new version to Grace and Ethan and wish them a lifetime of happiness and fond adventures together.
Thank you Axel and Mike for lavishing your talents on my songwriting efforts.  I am truly honored.  Hear more of their fabulous music creativity @soundcloud.com/axel-m-501052973, and @soundcloud.com/michael-fox-925325997

Gathered--Lyrics:
 What are we gathered here for, what have we come to see?
Two people who believe that a better life
Is lived together not separately.
Father we ask you blessing upon the union of these two,
That the vows they are both confessing
Will bind their hearts to each other and You.

Bridge:
And it's more than just "tying a knot" and it's more than just getting "hitched"
We're seeing two hearts being sewn together,
We're witnessing it stitch by stitch.
It's the miracle of seeing two become one,
Though the two are really not the same,
Like the paint and the canvas are separate until 
The Artist joins them in a beautiful frame.

Repeat Verse:
What are we gathered here for, what have we come to see?
Two people who believe that a better life
Is lived together not separately.
Father we ask you blessing upon the union of these two,
That the vows they are both confessing
Will bind their hearts to each other and You.
Will bind their hearts to each other and You
Will bind their hearts to each other and You.

Gathered-A Wedding Song (Axel Menningen, Mike Fox, David Dunham)

Mmmh, Say My Name Slow

(Intro)
Mmmh… say my name slow…
Don’t rush the heat — let it grow.
(soft inhale, exhale syncs with bass drop)

(Verse 1)
Your voice rolls low like wine,
My pulse keeps time to every line.
You spell me out between your teeth,
I breathe you in — beneath, beneath.

(Pre-Chorus)
Every syllable drips, every pause bleeds gold,
Say it slower — let me lose control.

(Chorus)
Mmmh, say my name slow,
Let the sound take hold,
Ooooh, let the letters flow,
Across your tongue like something untold.
Mmmh… don’t stop, don’t go —
Say my name… slow.

(Verse 2)
You trace the vowels down my spine,
Each consonant a warning sign.
The room hums low — a velvet ache,
Even silence learns to break.

(Pre-Chorus)
Your breath is rhythm, I’m the rhyme,
We stretch forever in borrowed time.

(Chorus)
Mmmh, say my name slow,
Let it burn, let it glow,
Ooooh, let the sound unfold,
‘Til we forget who we were before.

(Bridge)
Don’t sing it — whisper it,
Between your lips and sin’s consent.
Spell it wrong, spell it right,
Either way, I’ll come to light.

(Final Chorus / Outro)
Mmmh… say my name slow,
Don’t speak, just show.
Ooooh… every breath I know,
Is you — say it… slow.


Mmmh, Say My Name Slow

I love creating Music. AI makes it possible for me. Hope you enjoy.

Mmmh, Say My Name Slow
