“Big Hole”

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah,
Oklahoma, Oklahoma, Texas, New York, Philadelphia
A around the world theirs going to be a big nut bust
A purple nut all the purple pumpkin eaters is coming
To eat all you Mother Fuckers
The real monster no we not smoking no purple haze
 We’re eating your purple haze “Mother fuckers”
And were eating your cocaine rocks.
(I’m suspended in time)
Trapped between myself and something else
Trapped between my brain and my dreams 
Trapped between you and your love and your hate
Trapped between the things I want to be
Trying to climb out of this hole
Trying to climb out of this hole
Trying to climb out of this hole
Trying to climb out of this hole
(I’m suspended in time)
(I’m suspended in time)
Trying to climb out of this hole
With all my might I’m trying 
To climb out of this hole
With all my might I’m slipping, slipping down
Slipping deeper in this hole
I reach out and I see the sun
I see your hand
But I can’t get ahold of it

 I’m slipping deep and deeper into this hole
Deeper and deeper into this hole
(Richard Nixon 1964) 
Telling us Humansheep That The New World Order Is Coming.
Are common beliefs that have brought us together here
That are common interests and are common hopes
The interest that each of has to maintain our independence 
And the securities of our peoples
 And the hope that each of has to build a new world order
In which nations and people with different systems and different values
Can live together in peace respecting one another while disagreeing 

(I’m suspended in time)
(I’m suspended in time)

I’m slipping down inside this big oh hole
It’s sucking me down, it’s sucking me down, inside this big oh hole
It’s sucking me down, it’s sucking me down, inside this big oh hole
You guys don’t know what the hell you are doing
Freedom of speech man ha, ha yeah the constitution is awesome isn’t it?

BIG HOLE

Mechanical Harlequin by Quantafide

Lyrics:
High drive think tank
Cogs and wheels
Service to a head of steel
Digital mindwarp
A heartless grasp
Treadin' on a soul of glass
Shattered and smashed

Plug yourself in
Mechanical harlequin

You're on the grid you're on the grid

Living in a broken dream
We all merge with machine
Silicon soul
Download the app
Trigger the device
Apply the trap

Mechanical Harlequin

This track is also inspired by observing playing games,
about big and small ones, purple words, desperate and deranged local presidents, coloured packaging materials, the good, the bad and....all that daily players stuff.

(this music also contains SW - collage playing stuff)

SW: Bass, Guitars, and Bouzouki, and some silly words.
Also included some south american drum samples,
a PCO ringing tone and my answering machine :-)

P.S.:
"Heinz plays with Warcraft and Anna plays with Pit
Joseph plays with Money and Money´s happy with it
Angie talks to Holograms , Wladi has to quit
Rudolf plays with rendeers … stag thinks “what a shit”
Johnny plays with Walker, ballerinas with desire
Andy builds a fire but his flames are getting higher
No matter if you´re limited or considered as wise
Press your daily restart button to your challenge paradise"

It's my pleasure to share this new song based on a wonderful music track produced before by Larry Hansen and Tim Smith. For information about the music see https://soundcloud.com/dabluroom/gypsy-serenade. 

Larry has been very kind and supportive, and I appreciate that. Interestingly, I did not need to change the name of the music track when it was turned into a song, as the lyrics can happily live under the name: Gypsy Serenade.

Like always, I appreciate your valuable comments and feedback for me to correct my current mistakes in the future tracks. I hope you enjoy the song.

Lyrics: Gypsy Serenade

We were born against our will, as if being imprisoned
I wish I die instantly, and once, not so many times
 
We are the repetition of ups and downs, where and why?
We got wounded and shut down, when attempting to fly
 
We are sat down exhausted, wishing our hearts heal again
So we do not argue with our loved ones now and then
 
We were not in control, when they captured our hearts though
We are compelled half-drunks, squashed and crushed like a dough
 
We don't ask for any wines, just some water, oh my Lord
We are perplexed and burnt, just like abandoned deserts
 
The mirror of secrets was safely sealed forever
So we stare at unknowns to discover whatever
 
It's only love that can make our existence immortal
We are not afraid of being hurt by love let's carry on


آواز کولی - حسین راغب


ما زاده ی جبریم و اسیریم دمادم

ای کاش بمیریم و نمیریم دمادم

تکرار فرازیم و فرودیم کجاییم ؟

ما زخمی پرواز و به زیریم دمادم

ما خسته نشستیم که تیمار شود دل

تا خرده به دلدار نگیریم دمادم

مختار نبودیم که بردند دل از ما

مجبور و خماریم و خمیریم دمادم

از باده گذشتیم کمی آب خدایا

سرگشته و سوزان چو کویریم دمادم

پوشیده چو بر ما رخ آیینه ی اسرار 

ما خیره بر اسرار مسیریم دمادم

عشق است سرانجام که بی عشق هلاکیم

ای عشق بسوزان که دلیریم دمادم

I have a feeling you wont be there.
Even if I track you down, you disappear .                                          
Like a crow I am circling the shore..
For anything to find. I am searching alone.

I should not have left you unattended. 
I failed my watch..
A moment of silence and then it ended. 
I was out of touch.... 
with unattended you..

You scarred my legacies, my people and my lands.       
just another burden in my noble hands.
Like the storm I want to bring  you to your knees                                             
So you understand what trouble means.

I should not have left you unattended. 
I failed my watch.
A moment of silence and then it ended. 
I was out of touch.
with unattended you.

You cannot hide in shadows and shades
You  may run, but the road is a dead end.           
The stone I placed, shaped like a heart.
The love you lost will break you apart.
Like the storm I want to  bring you to your knees.

If You Hear No Evil - You Will See No Evil

Fae Elemental by Quantafide

Lyrics:
Struggling through the undergrowth
Of Autumn hedgerows
Thick of leaf
Blown in the breeze of insanity
That tears at the meek flesh
And gossamer wings

The army of the invisible
Masked to mortal eyes
Fighting the sharp barbs of winter's intent
To herald the arise
Of the new green life.

Warming rays guides the spirit strong
To enjoy the rapture of nature's song
That circles the heart to bring the summer feast

Enchanted stipes with caps arranged
In magical sacred circle ring
A forum for our fellowship
What a beautiful harvest
Love does bring

Earth air water fire
Giving you all that you desire
Earth air water fire
In harmony with all you require

   We cast enchantments 
      upon the wing
         send blessings forth
           to ride the four wild winds
              so bountiful in abundance
                 The earth shall sing
                     soft and sweetly

Rich fruits with nectar provide
Such a sweet heady brew
As the old is vanquished, swept away
To fulfil the potential
Of life anew

The acorn begins the journey
To the grand mighty oak
Grounded in merriment
To the dance of Elemental folk
A last toast to late summer
Before the surrender
To another cold blanket
Of crisp white snow

Fae Elemental

Hand of Fate by Quantafide

Lyrics:
I got a good luck charm in my hands
I hold the joker but it only dead pans
I flash a grin
I roll the dice
Speculation holds me in its vice

Life is a gamble and it tastes so sweet
Life is a gamble spin the roulette wheel
Life is a gamble from dusk 'til dawn
Life is a gamble since the day you were born

I want a little people magic thrown in my stars
Kiss lady luck in a thousand bars
Hold the cards close to my chest
Raise the stakes feather my nest

Hungry ghouls haunt casinos
The ghost of a chance
Speculate accumulate
Show me the hand
There's a spook in the jackpot
A phantom in the stash
Speculate accumulate
Gimme the cash

I need a royal flush frenzy in my hand
Hold all the aces that fortune demands
I picks a number I takes my chance
I've got the fever and I'm in its trance

Hand of Fate

A raw, stripped, back to brass tacks rendition of the song Radio Static

Lyrics:
Drivin' in my car
Overcast afternoon
The road is wet
Aqua velvet smooth
Gotta feeling I'm I'm late
Yet still to arrive
In another grey town
With a down the tubes vibe

Tune in my senses
I'm changing gear
Alert to listen with my third ear
My favourite show on the radio
Is static...

Turn on my headlights
As the day dims down
My fingertappin' rhythm
Orchestrates the sound
Got a song in my head
And it's comin' on strong
Don't want interference
Or the melody's gone

Tune in my senses to my third ear
Alert to listen as I change gear
My favourite show on the radio
Is static...

Happy celebrations, whatever the occasion!!!

Lyrics:
We should thank our stars
We're having such a wonderful night
That great god Pan plays sweet music in our minds
All the worries of the world
We're leaving them way behind
Friends raise a toast to Bacchanalian luscious delights

We feel so happy
Having a real good time

Unravelling, unravelling
Freeing the senses
Unravelling, unravelling
Three sheets to the wind

And we feel for all mankind
As the rhythm takes us
As we bless the stars that shine
With all their cosmic graces

We'll have another drink
Pour another drink
Have another drinks soirée

With the hint of a moonlit glint in our eyes
We may link with the world to celebrate at midnight
These moments never lost reliving
"It's a wonderful life!"

Unravelling

Hey guys! Let's hang out and talk about stuff, like getting old and getting drunk. I think that's what we're talking about here anyways?

"Tell Them About the Frequencies (We've Found)" may be first in the track list, but it was the last of all of the songs on this album to be composed (2010). It was recorded immediately after its composition with a combination of equipment used on the earlier recordings (tracks 4, 6, 8) and the subsequent ones (tracks 2, 3, 5, 7, 9). During mixing in 2013, it was found to possess adequate energy and overall quality so that it would not have to be re-recorded. It is also the most accurate indicator of how GotS's sound will evolve into their sophomore release... whenever that will be.

Lyrics:
Her oxygen ration
Is dangerously low
She lost all her credits
on the 'Harlequin' show

A mannequin in rags
Slaving in the fiery heat
Under a skyscraper firmament
That houses a cold elite

She curses the hatchery
Where she was born
She begged the conglomerate
For an early death in the fall
She waits in the work zone
For her bionics to fail
She'll be spare parts tomorrow
Unless her heart prevails

Grinding gears
Winding down
Data banks all going hazy
Transmission not received
This machine is closing down

Synthetic hemoglobin
Pumping slower by the hour
Circuit malfunction
She's leaving the machine

Did she used to be of the human kind
Did she used to have a liberated mind
Did she used to have her own memories
Did she used to have her very own family
Can we rewind time?

Lyrics:
Great engineer
Turning the universal wheel
Steering the course of the big machine
Cranking the natural gears
Of every living being

Click the icon for me
Bring up the cosmos on your monitor screen
Design the graphics of our existance
Stream the cosmos with intricate wisdom
Remove the firewall
That holds all our fears
Open our eyes to realise
We are all the great engineers
Turning the universal wheels
Steering the course of the big machine

Give it up give it up
You don't need A.I.
Share the love share the love
The dark cloud must die
Load it up send it up
You don't need A.I.
Share the love share the love
Hear our battle cry

The semantics of the syntax
The 'intelligent agent' is blind
What logic has the A.I.
That deceives and tricks mankind

The Great Engineer

You're lying in the shallow gutter of love
You're demonstrating vital signs of being on
Rive and shake pop and groove treat you cruel
Can you feel the warmth trickle under you
Lying in the gutter of love

Flip the switch engage the rain showered from the long thin stage
Flounder wriggle squirm and twitch bite your bottom lip
You're on the brink

Identified as O.t.B self destructing naturally 
You're my pseudo-evergreen can I slip down in between
Horizontal make the shift taste the topping on the cake 
The only place that I feel free is down here come and join me
Lying in the gutter of love

Flip the switch engage the rain showered from the long thin stage
Flounder wriggle squirm and twitch bite your bottom lip
You're on the brink

I need to have a thing 
This could be my thing
Need something

You need to let it flow
Don't let it go to waste
Dive right in

You're lying in the shallow gutter of love
Submitted now you're waiting to be turned right on
Back up out now it's time to treat you cruel
Need to feel the warmth trickle under you
Lying in the gutter of love

Flip the switch engage the rain showered from the long thin stage
Flounder wriggle squirm and twitch bite your bottom lip
You're on the brink

On the Brink
