La marcha de los inconscientes

Original song by TrippSideBrown: www.youtube.com/@MikeWoodside-sv9gr
he was the only one who had a plan
nobody else knew where to go
care without fear of popular demand
that's what a leader's made of
now we're moving backwards
i can see it coming again
look around and soon you'll find your enemy's your only friend
does anybody remember laughter
was that carefree child really me? 
did you get what you were after? 
what was that and how did I turn to me?
We'll never reach our destination without a place to start
finger on the trigger back up against the wall
go ahead and take the first shot
or realize that my agenda benefits all
every destination needs a place to start
I'm not a destination but a place to
it would be so easy just to give up now
but I try, as I bleed, I must succeed
never could've done what I did if it wasn't for the ones I did it for
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
hey mister sister why so much enraged
nobody wants to hear you...
spin like a twister pointing all this blame
when was the last time you did anything for someone else
one common goal one aspiration peace in all our hearts
we'll never reach that destination without a place to start
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
everybody needs everybody

A Place To Start - TrippSideBrown

[Verse]
Some dig deep
just to stay afloat
Hands all blister
still no coat

Some rise slow
before the sun
Give and give
‘till nothing’s done

[Chorus]
Some people work to the bone –
and go home cold
Others glide
and still strike gold

[Verse]
You're told it counts
to do things right
But right don't pay
on Friday night

[Bridge]
It’s not about how much you give –
but who gets seen
and who gets to live

[Chorus]
Some people work to the bone –
just to survive
Some wear crowns
they never tried

[Verse]
Hands worn thin
Truth cuts stone
Some keep bleeding
Just to own

[Outro Chorus]
Some people work to the bone –
and go home cold
Others glide
and still strike gold


Work To The Bone

The Light Never Lies

[Verse]
We don’t touch, we resonate
Through silence bent by distant weight
A charge, a pulse, a field we share
You turn, and I am almost there

[Chorus]
The light never lies
It flickers, but flies
We’re spark in the dark
Writing truth across skies

[Verse]
A photon passed between our hands
No sound, no plea, just what it understands
A grammar etched in wave and spin
We reach, collapse, begin again

[Chorus]
The light never lies
It flickers, but flies
We’re fire without flame
We’re question, not name

[Bridge]
Not bodies, but signals
Not answers, but signs
The world is a whisper
In vacuum lines

[Chorus]
The light never lies
Though shadows may try
We burn just to know
That to be is to glow

The Light Never Lies

[Verse]
You looked away, but your hand stayed still
Like a page half-turned against your will
Coffee cooled, the light turned red
But something more was left unsaid

I moved my chair a breath too near
Not to speak, but just be here
Your fingers twitched, a silent sign
And I read the space between your lines

[Chorus]
It’s not the words we throw or catch
But sparks that jump without a match
The hush before a lover leaves
The weight of what no tongue believes

[Verse]
She wiped the table, wiped it twice
As if to smooth out sacrifice
He checked the mail, then checked again
As if to name what can't remain

[Chorus]
It’s not the words we throw or catch
But sparks that jump without a match
The hush before a lover leaves
The weight of what no tongue believes

It’s not the words we throw or catch
But sparks that jump without a match
We speak in drift, in glance, in breath
A grammar wired beneath regret

[Bridge]
Like radios tuned in distant rooms
We hum, we pulse, we share our wounds
No alphabet can hold this thread –
But still, it ties what’s never said

[Outro Chorus]
It’s not a voice, but still reply
A field between the you and I
We’re not alone, not when we try
The light between us doesn’t lie

A Grammar

This Is The Path [No Beast Has Touched]

[Verse 1]
I walked the edge where silence grows
Among forgotten bones and crows
Not north, nor south – just in-between
Where memory hides what might have been
A path untrodden, undefined
Where no shadow ever screamed clarity
No claw has scratched this ancient dust
No hunger dares disturb its trust

[Chorus]
This is the path no beast has touched
Too still for fear, too deep for blood
A whispered thread through time's collapse
Where breath is birth and loss, perhaps
You who seek – remain, endure
Where no anger forms a cure
The path unfolds beneath the skin
Where nothing ends and none begin

[Verse 2]
Not made for kings, nor for the lost
It winds beyond all gain and cost
A light that rests without a name
A flame that sleeps in body's frame
The hunter's eyes can't pierce this field
No trap is set, no prey revealed
This isn’t peace, it isn’t war
But something vaster, without shore

[Chorus]
This is the path no beast has touched
Too still for fear, too deep for blood
A whispered thread through time's collapse
Where breath is birth and loss, perhaps
You who’ve loved and you who bore
A silence larger than before
The path is carved in shadow’s kin
Where all you've lost is held within

[Bridge]
And if you hear it – like a call
Not loud, but not quite silence, all
Then walk, but leave your weapons here
For truth won’t fight, and truth won’t fear

[Final Chorus]
This is the path no beast has known
Where silence sings and self is sown
A path that glows beyond the seen
Where every step is home unseen

This Is The Path [No Beast Has Touched]

[Verse]
I walk the edge of a yawning void
Only Nijinsky dares to hold my hand
You fell asleep upon the stairs
And woke with a crushed orange in your palm

You said you speak with those long gone
That their answers cut deeper than mine
Their silence wrapped in solemn grace
Outshining my faltering lines

[Pre-Chorus]
You said I wasn’t good for her –
But what the hell do you, do you know of that
Everyone who’s scared
Just bends their story to fit the facts

[Chorus]
You always told me who I was
Never cared to really know
Over and over – your damn questions
Till I gave the answer you came for

Over and over – the same demands
I wish I'd walked away back then

[Verse]
You stole the most precious thing we had
Refused to share what never was yours alone
Even knowing they'd break apart
If we didn’t leave them the peace they deserved

Just a fair chance to grow, to heal
To feel the love they were worthy of
But you chose to repeat your hell instead
The childhood you blamed for everything

[Pre-Chorus]
You said I wasn’t good for her –
But what the hell do you know of that?
Everyone who’s scared
Just bends their story to fit the facts

[Chorus]
I wish I’d fought, told you off long ago
You never thanked the fear we showed
We bent, we broke from every word
This pain was never what we owed

[Outro]
I miss my daughter every single day
But a heart turned cold took her away
Nijinsky said – cold is where death begins
And warmth was something they'd never let in

New song written and performed by David Cooper.

Lyrics:

Meanwhile I try to write a new song
Bang my head against a brick wall
Nothing new will come
That’s just how it falls

I feel that I’m wasting time
Time passes so very slow
Can’t find that perfect rhyme
Nothing seems to want to flow

Chorus

Make it fine 
Make it good 
Live your life the way you should 

Take your time
Pass it around
Don’t let time let you down

Solo

Now this song is haunting me
Can’t think what I want to say
Dig deep in my memory
Maybe leave it for another day

Chorus x 2

Don’t let time let you down x 3

Don't let time let you down

Day mode vox in/improved on first vocal attempt since and added acoustic guitar. My uncles Ovation...

That is the original version by The Moody Blues... If you don't know the song... Meet a song that people will still listen to in millions of years. It's amazing the Moody Blues original!


Man this song has dug in deep for me. I'd say it was possibly the third song I learned on guitar. Polly by Nirvana, Stairway to Heaven by Led Zepp and then I probably played this one more then any for a few years. I remember watching my Uncle Liam who just left us, RIP buddy... playing it when I was a teenager and I was in awe. He was such an amazing performer and his playing is possibly the single most important real that made me lean to song writing as opposed to becoming a technically great musician.

This is for you Liam, the Ovation is in, we both played this song more times on that guitar then we could count... The guitar travelled with both of us around Europe years apart (although I only made France and Holland with it 😆🤷🏽). Ovy is now 42! I wouldn't be what I am today without you man. Love ya forever and thanks for teaching me

Lyrics (Written by Justin Hayward)

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore

'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you

Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
They can't understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end

And I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore

'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you

Nights in White Satin (A Rendition of the Moody Blues Original track 1968)

This track was inspired by "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" as translated by Simon Armitage. There are beautifully written passages describing Gawain's lonely journey through the a wintry northern landscape:
"...clouds shed their cargo of crystallised rain which froze as it fell to the frost-glazed earth. With nerves frozen numb he napped in his armour; bivouacked in the blackness amongst bare rocks where melt-water streamed from the snow-capped summits and high overhead hung chandeliers of ice."

Sketch no. 8; mindful

Yesterday this song painted a name change for me but after sleeping on it... TBD is too well established so I've reverted to my old artist name.

Call it a product of making songs in the moment all the time and trying to let my music own and reflect that...

all good!

Lyrics
The label may changed
Like I said to Mark,
Should I shine my light just from the dark
My positive intent painted some negative scene
Let's let the school boy out to curate this dream

A beautiful lark
Just beautiful light
From the beautiful dark
New phase
See black hole bright

The intention the same
Just taking care by name
Through Peaceful Lights
We're sending love for sane
Transcendental meditation soothe our pain
Manifest our Lion's mane
As apex predators
Show Earth how we remain

A beautiful lark
Some beauty is saved
From the beautiful dark
New rays
Pure positive path we've paved

👨🏿‍🚀Luminous Lark🧑🏻‍🚀

we’ll fight and you know the rest

I know that I’m not the best
in fact I’m not even good
we’ll fight and you know the rest

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
