For this song I used a brief recording from 13 years ago, when I was trying to play the keyboard. I added the vocals and a fairly atmospheric guitar. In some way, it means a change of style compared to my previous songs. Of course, I'm still me, with my limitations.

My Darkest Hour

POMEGRANATE CEREMONY 

It's just the first moment of panic after coming to
Must be hussy's full moon 
She's an open nerve and a crazy child 
And a circus tent all at once 
Sweet chamomile she's missed you 

She's needing another pomegranate ceremony 

Could be the late nights in the dungeon breathing lithotine 
She thinks she's Sarah Vaughan or Billie
Anyone come out from anywhere now to drown out her holler 
Alleviate this squalor

She's making it another pomegranate ceremony 

Oh try to treat it with respect honey 
See how far you get 

She exerts herself to such extent that she forgets to breathe 
Her head grows red and twice its size 
Then she'll be all asleep in moonlight 
Looks like anything so tapped out can look wise 
After the pomegranate ceremony 

Lord, even Mussolini looked peaceful in his grave 

It's just a small patch of pansies we have picked for you 
Our beloved full moon 
Such kindness we project to soothe your flame 
Just pick it to the bone 
We've all already done the same 

We're done with this pomegranate ceremony

I GO MY WAY
V1
Cars go racing by
A typical work day
Sad faces scurrying about
Stacks of bills to pay
From dawn till dusk
Travelin’ a lone byway
Hummin’ a humble tune
Takes me through my day

CHORUS
After I’ve come to say
What I came to say
My worn-out welcome
I don’t overstay
I go my way
Quietly I go my way
I go my way
Quietly I go my way

V2
Born a castaway
A castaway I’ll always be
Wild as the wind blows
Find me lost at sea
This world’s glitter and gold
Mean nothing to me
Wisdom is my windfall
Knowledge is the key


CHORUS
After I’ve come to say
What I came to say
My worn-out welcome
I don’t overstay
I go my way
Quietly I go my way
I go my way
Quietly I go my way

V3
And in the calm
Of a warm afternoon breeze
I watch branches dancing
High up in the trees
Millions of stars
Will soon be all mine to gaze
The universe
Will soon be all mine to praise

Ooooh-ooooh-ooh
Ooooh-ooooh-ooh
Ooooh-ooooh-ooh
Ooooh-ooh

CHORUS
I go my way
Quietly I go my way
I go my way
Quietly I go my way.

Inspired by the late poet, Max Ehrmann; one of his lesser known poems, “I Go My Way”.

Electric Love

No More Lonely

"AERIS" is a hazy, emotional electronica piece that weaves lo-fi textures with ambient cinematics. At approximately 78 BPM, it flows with soft grain, delayed pads, and analog warmth. Capturing the sound of drifting memory through neon-lit silence.

Built without heavy percussion, the piece relies on slowly evolving atmospheres and subtle glitch washes, evoking a reflective dreamstate.

Best experienced during late hours, preferably with headphones and solitude.

Genre: Ambient Electronica / Post-Lo-fi / Granular Dreamscape
Mood: Nostalgic / Lucid / Synthetic / Immersive

Lyrics:
Are there far and dark countries teeming
I have to see
Life's too dull, I wait patiently

I'm slipping past and stealing where I can
Stealing as much as I can stand
Cannot be cold, cannot be buzzing all the time
Life's dull strain, looking for a hill to climb

Every line and shape perfectly defined
Every color detailed and brilliant
Life's too dull, even the great can't live with it

Mirage music and poetry and letters
Language we love to say
Life's too dull, and gets in the way

Sylph male circling me, come together when I breathe
Life's too dull, that's what we achieve

Nothing has started, nothing has come through
I'd like to stay after school
I don't even know what it is I've held on to
Life's dull strain, what do I want to do

I treat you like you're in short supply
Life's too dull, I can't imagine why

The mother's sins have won
Life's too dull, we've barely just begun

Arms crossed at wrist, held tight
Shadow of a dove
Flies across the beam moonlight
Casting on the wall
Life's too dull, it's not a dove at all

Baseball and stadium
The summer scorching heat
Life's too dull, and incomplete

There are too many questions
But I don't want answers, I just want to feel
Life's too dull, form of a habitrail wheel

Pesticide perpetrators at beck and call
Herding unique tales to a cliff to fall
But then I don't want to sparkle
Or have the gold wash over the aerial
I'd rather be blank and small
Life's too dull, since I grasp the sprawl
I'd rather be blank and small

Mirage music and poetry and letters
Language we love to say
Life's too dull, let's be on our way

TRuSt THe PRoCeSS.

In every culture, there is this disturbing and frightening character that parents readily use to encourage their children to behave. But if he appears in your dreams, above all, do not answer him or follow him, otherwise it will be at your own risk. And never forget that we all have a guardian angel watching over us. So there is hope. / Dans toutes les cultures, il y a ce personnage inquiétant, et effrayant que les parents utilisent volontiers pour inciter leurs enfants à rester sage. Mais s'il apparait lors de vos songes, surtout ne lui répondez pas, ne le suivez pas, sinon c'est à vos risques et périls. Et n'oubliez jamais que nous avons tous un ange gardien pour veiller sur nous. Donc l'espoir est là
