The plot of the song is based around a secret agent concept:

Part 1: surveillance
Part 2: action sequence
Part 3: walking away (with a slight limp)

This song was written in perfect-4ths tuning, which is where all the non-standard flat-5 chords come from.  No matter how jarring a chord, it can be made to sound natural in the right context.  :-)

This is an instrumental song, based around a guitar solo.

Lyrics:

On the darkest planet,
with a shadow sun,
the brightest light that you'll find there,
is a lightning bug.

The people up there
don't need no eyes.
They only speak to each other
in lullabies.

On the darkest planet,
'round the darkest star,
sometimes they look to the sky,
to where you are.

On the darkest hour,
of the darkest day,
will they make a message,
to send your way?

This is a retro 80s style song.  Lyrics:

Hey I wanna fly far away
on a sound wave.
I await high weather.

Hey I wanna fly far away.
Touch the sun today.
With a fire lit under.

Rain soaked streets.
Palm trees at night.
Hypnotized by purple neon lights.

A waterfall of sound
in a world around.
I don't know if all is silent.

On a sound wave.

This may be my personal favorite of all the songs I've written.  It's a whimsical folk song about a person who's trying to become a hobo.  He believes that trains are somehow part of the picture, but doesn't quite understand how they work.  Still he waits for the train, which he calls "the Hobo Train."  :-)

Lyrics:

(faint train whistle in distance)

There's a world out there,
where people have no cares.
They drift along, like a song,
through the air.

And even though,
they are always on the go,
there's no place to be,
no time to show.

Hop on board the Hobo Train
There's a place, where you may lay your head.

With all the time, and nothin' to do.

Have a home as big as a world,
with a roof at night as big as the sky.

Maybe someday, I'll hear that train,
if I am lucky.
But I can only dream today.
When is coming?

You can't be free,
if you own a single thing.
It'll weight you down, to the ground,
like a chain.

Cause everyday, 
you'll work to keep it paid.
It brings you pain, to see it change,
until it breaks.

Hop on board the Hobo Train,
There's a place, where you may lay your head.
Have a home as big as a world,
with a roof at night as big as the sky.

With all the time, and nothin' to do.

(faint train whistle in distance)

This is a piano sonata with a slight Russian mood.  

It is a follow up to the  previous sonata called "Russian Nesting Doll"
