That's a great lyric, Paul...lovely sound, too..!

lovely, and everything in such fine balance.

Love when the guitar overlays come in. I always loved this chord progression from a major to another major which shouldnt sound right but somehow sounds amazing. Music eh? Amazing

Great lyrics, lovely  music and voice Paul!!

Lyrics :
You can't always trust
the ones that you trust
You can't always keep
the falling from failing
But find it in your shadows
The darkest corners
A lost shining leaf
a poet's dagger

You once may have heard
whisper the devil's game
Play the clowns in mime
Found it in your heart
the dagger with my name
It ends that day
Cracked the mirrors
the thief was you…

Gryflet - Keep It Or Not w/jh0st

Love 
you drift in oceans
while I just swallow the ground

Dunt
you pushed me over
Well it's an easy way out

Say what you want
but don't make a sound
Say what you want
don't ever look down

Son
stare out the world
Hope you figure it out

Stay if you want
filling dead air
Stay if you want 
going nowhere

Man on a wire
don't ever look down
Man on a wire
don't ever look down
Man on a wire
still hanging around

Stay if you want
filling dead air
I'll be going nowhere

Man on a wire..

man on a wire

Lyrics:

The Hardest Part of Loving you is letting go

The Hardest part of loving you, is letting go
Because i’m deeper in the storm
You Hint at words of love for me,
But nothing solid and concrete
it’s always some damn mystery
That's paved by so much history 

The hardest part of knowing you is loving you
For I couldn’t help it if I tried
But I got no place left to speak
Beneath a silent you and me
But without words the bones grow cold
Like some forgotten graveyard stone

Chorus:
I always say I’ll walk away,  but never do
Because you’re part of me and who I am
And if the earth came to a stand
No more oceans… no more land
The words I’m not allowed to say 
Would still endure through any age.

Instrumental

The Hardest part is bearing love I cannot show..
To burn so bright it cannot die
I wish that you could feel the same
I’d love you in a thousand ways
And though I know you never will
I hope you know I love you still...

The hardest part of loving you.. is letting you go.

The Hardest Part

This is a BBC Radio Essex Interview (broadcast 25 Jan 2021) about a track called "Don't Look Down" - a collaboration between myself and the huge talent that is Bruce Conover. 

Unfortunately the delay on the telephone line from Manhattan Beach, Calif., to the UK meant that Bruce didn't get to say anything until after the interview had finished. Which was a great shame, as he has a truly great voice for radio. I have a great face for radio but not really the voice.

I forgot to mention in the interview that it was a tribute to the fifth Beatle: Sir George Martin, oops! Also the Exhibition was Anselm Kiefer's in the R.A.

BBC Radio Essex Interview + 'Don't Look Down' by McWalter & Conover

After building a new acoustic guitar and fitting it with a set of nylon strings, this was was an obvious choice for proof of concept. Please enjoy...

Blackbird Acoustic [Instrumental]

Deep Dive

Ladies and Gentlemen, a song of unrelenting self pity...a song about a 50+ year old man trying to write songs.
apologies to Jackson Browne..
(thankfully the 'lightning strike in the corner of my eye' turned out not to be a detched retina btw...lol)

While last note was still ringing, and the words had left my tongue,
The finish line behind me, there was no race left to run,
And there was nothing left inside me, nothing left to prove,
I had sung at least a million songs to no one in the room…

I saw a light in the corner of my eye
A lightning strike, and I knew it was a sign
But it never led the way, it just led me astray.
And I’m out here all alone, far away from home.

Now I’m lost out here forever, putting pieces back together,
And I don’t care, and no one cares, I don’t know why I try,
Because I have to pay my penance, and I have to do my my time
And I have to find the salvation while I slowly lose my mind

I saw a light in the corner of my eye   
A lightning strike, and I knew I   t was a sign
But it never led the way, it just led me astray.
Now I’m far away from you, and I don’t know what to do.

Would you take me to the ocean, we could walk along the shore,
Hand in hand, before the dawn, like we used to do before.
But I’m underneath this prison, and I can’t wake from this dream,
And I need a little something, for the the heartache and the pain…

I saw a light in the corner of my eye
A lightning strike, and I knew it was a sign
But it never led the way, it just led me astray.
Now I’m out here all alone, far away from home…
