I envision a person strutting down a street at midnight whistling to and for themselves!

A great sound you have Phil, luv the dog))))))

@user-138663860: I really appreciate your support and positive feedback. Thanks so much

Love that bass line - sounds kind of 90’s pop

two legs to carry me home when im too stoned to make it alone
gets me to where i need to go midnight stroll
walk down my street with my new plastic feet

two legs to help me climb high the mountain is tall makes me feel small under it all
its been said before you best take a seat
you wont get too far with your new plastic feet

two legs to help me run quick so i can escape the daily routine that i have made
hear the sound of water from a slow running creek
and in it ill put my new plastic feet

two legs to jump over coals through burning hoops the edge of a cliff look at the view
stay in the shade away from the heat
you know it might melt my new plastic feet

two legs to wander the world and look for a girl who speaks in a language ive never heard
she will be kind she will be sweet
but most of all love me and my plastic feet

two legs and i can swim through the current and tides of sea deep and blue
keeping my head above water trying not to sink
as the fish try to eat my new plastic feet

two legs and i can walk through the pillars and gates that i once knew
look around and wonder but nothing can keep
me from tripping over my new plastic feet

two legs to get me to war so i can die a beautiful death wreaths at the door
not a word will be spoken they'll look down and see
all that is left are new plastic feet

2 Legs To Carry Me

We seem to be on ever ending road that leads us to the destruction of our own planet. In other words we are one more minute to midnight when it will be too late to stop the impact of climate change. We continue on the same road thinking we can wash away the daily grime at sundown.

Lyrics
One more minute to midnight
The night is closing in
It’s hard to tell what’s black or white
One more minute to midnight.

One more wave up on the shore
In the last rays of sunlight
We think this will go on forever more
At one more minute to midnight

Keep on the same road for one more day
Keep on the same road. We’re doing fine
Cool our bodies in the river at sundown
Wash away the daily grime.

All our lives are intertwined with
Sun, stars, earth and moon.
All our lives are so defined that leave us little room 

We’re one more minute to midnight. (Repeat and fade).

One thousand miles from Texas

One more minute to midnight

One More Minute To Midnight

Darkness, My Evil Friend

Feedback on your pain

You don't know what love is

"What thrilled me most was the fact that millions of meteors burn up every day as they enter our atmosphere. As a result, Earth receives ten tons of dust from outer space. Not only do we take in the world with each breath, we are inhaling the universe. We are made of stardust."
— Terry Tempest Williams

Thought Formations

An old folk song written by Blind Alfred Reed. There have been some famous cover versions by artists like Ry Cooder and Bruce Springsteen. I think my acoustic version is closest to Ry Cooder's though obviously not in the same stratosphere when it comes to ability.

How Can a Poor Man Stand Such Times and Live? (by Ry Cooder, written by Blind Alfred Reed)

Edited: I decided to replace the song with the one that can be seen and heard on Youtube. In the aftermath, even the monotonous percussion work gets on my nerves. I left it out and played with the tempos a bit instead. I think that without percussion I come rather close to the Greek saga.

I hope the version doesn't disappoint the previous listeners of the "old" version too much.

Lyrics:
You try to run, you try to flee
But the streets are filled with mutant freaks

Your Mylar suit has sprung a leak
Now head crabs crawl up your feet

My Dystopia! My Dystopia! My Dystopia! Ma-ma-ma my-dystopia!

Everything sucks and it always rains
Zombies roam the streets, looking for brains

Giant rats crawl from sewer drains
Look at them close they have a human face

My Dystopia! My Dystopia! My Dystopia! Ma-ma-ma my-dystopia!

You huddle round a garbage fire
Think you’re cool in your ripped attire

The only food is mystery meat
It’s most likely made of Soylent Green!

My Dystopia! My Dystopia! My Dystopia! Ma-ma-ma my-dystopia!

Drink your Lightning Claw, it’s all the rage
Head in the cloud, mind in a daze

How we got here is now a haze
Wear hockey pads and pierce your face

LE CIRQUE by SUBSONIC DISSIDENCE !
Album "CHEVAL FOU" (2023)

LE CIRQUE

Firstly being a song with traditional 6/4 signature, I redid the central section in 4/4 to add strength, same as with my previously posted song.

Also, I 'needed' to cut last quarter note to instrumental bridges and play them in 5/4.

After these artificialities, I tried a mild sound to please your ears ;)

Letra (Translated lyrics):

Ven (Come)

Ven… cógeme con tus manos, tan limpias, tan solas, tan blancas, tan suaves, ven…
   (Come … take me with your hands, so clean, so lonely, so white, so soft, come …)
Ven… bésame con tus labios, tan tiernos, tan prietos, tan lejos, tan dulces, ven…
   (Come … kiss me with your lips, so tender, so tight, so distant, so sweet, come …)

Ven… guíame con tus ojos, tan puros, tan ciegos, tan tuyos, tan graves, ven…
   (Come … guide me with your eyes, so pure, so blind, so yours, so serious, come …)
Ven… pídeme lo que quieras y dime que nunca podrías dejarme… ven…
   (Come … ask me whatever you want and tell me you could never leave me … come …)

Ven y méceme en tus brazos. (Come and swing me in your arms.)
Ven y guárdame en tu seno. (Come and keep me in your bosom.)
Ven y duérmeme en tu regazo. (Come and get me asleep on your lap.)
Ven… ven… ven… (Come … come … come …)

Ven… cántame con tu risa, tan clara, tan rara, tan fresca, tan triste, ven…
   (Come … sing to me with your laugh, so clear, so rare, so fresh, so sad, come …)
Ven… llámame con tu gesto, tan sabio, tan lacio, tan quieto, tan fuerte, ven…
   (Come … call me with your gesture, so wise, so languid, so still, so strong, come …)

Ven… ámame con tu vida, tan dura, tan libre, tan hueca, tan calma, ven…
   (Come … love me with your life, so hard, so free, so hollow, so calm, come …)
Ven… pídeme lo que quieras y dime que nunca podrías dejarme… ven…
   (Come … ask me whatever you want and tell me you could never leave me … come …)
