GOLD - EP

lyrics by Peter Aristone
music by Peter Aristone & Daniel Rothmann

When it rains than it pours
We stayed the same but I'm not yours
No way back
You say “We'll loose it all again,
Turn the page
And walk away"

The fading smile I saw in your eyes
It made me feel so cold inside
And you felt the same
Just as more you pushed me away
The more it made me feel to stay
And now it's all the same

We have tried many ways
To get through our hazy days
We've got oh so high
If we could hold our fears
It wouldn't lead to burst in tears
But we're not as one

Faded rose has just remained
Something had to stay unchanged
No way back
You didn't want to play this game
Turned the page
And walked away

The fading smile I saw in your eyes
It made me feel so cold inside
And you felt the same
Just as more you pushed me away
The more it made me feel to stay
Now it's all the same

We have tried many ways
To get through our hazy days
We've got oh so high
If we could hold our fears
It wouldn't lead to burst in tears
But we're not as one

When it rains than it pours
We stayed the same but I'm not yours
No way back
You say “We'll loose it all again,
Turn the page
And walk away"...

Not As One

music by Peter Aristone & Alfie Jackson
lyrics by Romeo Balogar, Alfie Jackson & Peter Aristone

No space is big enough
To make me breathe easy
No treasure box is small enough
To hide away my secrets
No wind is fast enough
To blow through and please me
No time comes slow enough
To make me feel I'm alive

No eternity is close enough
To bring back all my loved ones
No sun's never strong enough
To burn away my shadow
No map is clear enough
I'll end up where the wind blows
No TV never tells me
What I need to know
While I'm alive

I'm just a blue-eyed fool
Living in someone else's rule
I want that fool to be gone
All I hear is a thought pollution
All I strive for is a world revolution
I'm just a blue-eyed fool

No sea is deep enough
To cover my emotion
No man is man enough
To stand for it all
No bird could fly enough
To reach up any higher
No eyes could ever see
The distance I fall

I'm just a blue-eyed fool
Living in someone else's rule
I want that fool to be gone
All I hear is a thought pollution
All I strive for is a world revollution
I'm just a blue-eyed fool

Then one day
I could see
Never had the sense to see
I should let this go
The skies were pale
Disguising me
But now I'm free and
I thought I'd better let you know

I'm just a blue-eyed fool
Breaking someone else's rule
The fool I knew is gone
Free from your thought pollution
And I've started a self revolution
I'm just a blue-eyed fool

some mornings i wake up 
the pressure won't let up
trouble she knocks on my door

desperate to make it
so close i can taste it
still got so far, to go

day after day
more time slips away
trapped in a wasteland of gray

back to the start
working even harder
find our way out of this maze

that's how i survive 
when life on the outside 
is cold
i look in your eyes
realize i'll never 
be broke
your love, your love, your love, your love
is 

gold x 4

frozen in winter
you brought the warmth in
everything started to thaw

broke through the spell
found where i fell
lifted me up from the floor

day after day
more time slips away
trapped in a wasteland of gray

back to the start
working even harder
together we'll make our escape

that's how i survive 
when life on the outside 
is cold
i look in your eyes
realize i'll never 
be broke
your love, your love, your love, your love
is 

gold x 4

your love, your love, your love, your love…
your love, your love, your love, your love is

gold x 4

that's how i survive 
when life on the outside 
is cold
i look in your eyes
realize i'll never 
be broke


Gold

Love The One You're With (cover)

Sometimes you have to go back in order to move forward. After making his acclaimed debut album, the baroque 2014 release “19 Days in Tetbury,” Peter Aristone dials it down a few notches with his compelling, stripped down EP “Gold.”

“That’s how it all began for me,” Aristone says. “I’ll never forget picking up that acoustic guitar and how it felt. This is like a journey back home. I’m so comfortable with the acoustic guitar. I love it.”

“Gold” is a gorgeous, dramatic tune, which features a soaring vocal, which is reminiscent of the Icelandic act Of Monsters and Men.” The title track sounds as if it’s sung from the view of a wild-eyed optimist..

 “It’s about the love that connects us all,” Aristone explains. “It’s about passion. That can be the passion for music or whatever you love. It’s a song about how love can save you from everything bad in the world.”

 The timing couldn’t be better for “Gold” considering how unstable and unpredictable the world has become.
