The Mystic Opera II

Overture

Bandcamp

OVERTURE - (instrumental)

The world is forever scrabbling for our attention,a constant jabbering commotion drowning out other things of importance.

Take time out to listen,to be at peace and to charge the batteries.

What are you afraid of,when you hide behind the noise
Fill your head with clamour,so you never hear the voice

I like the peace and quiet
I love a mind at rest
Well,don't be afraid to try it
Chilled out,laid back and unstressed

Alone with your thoughts may give you cause for doubt
So turn up the volume,drown everything out

I like the peace and quiet
I love a mind at rest
Well,don't be afraid to try it
Chilled out,laid back and unstressed

Still

This is the last in the Cloudlines series (Just realised I've been putting this collection together for more than 6 years!) 
A dreamlike series of ambient instrumentals featuring warm melodies, acoustic guitars (both nylon and steel strung), heavily processed electric guitars and a shimmering wash of synths.
A mix of the familiar, the nostalgic and the experimental.
The whole series is also available on my Bandcamp page.
Thanks for listening .......
Richard :)
PS a new long term project is on it's way.

Cloudlines No'12 (The Last)

Original song inspired by the question what if someone like David Bowie never found his way to his muse. How many wonderful gifts remain in the hearts of their creators never to be seen by the world?

Lyrics
He wears a suit that never fit him and it's sad to say it fits him worse now
He has no clue of how to change it so he silently puts it on every day
He used to think his life would burn so brightly Now he tells himself what a joke he really is
Still a voice cries from deep within Come on Man I’ve always been here

He wears a suit that never fit him and the world just shrugs
Another mumbling voice in the wilderness against this world’s din
How can we fight for every square inch of land but for our own people not give a damn
Still even with all odds against it beauty finds a way to shines

How can we calculate the loss when a wildflower never blooms
How can we measure the loss of a genius that the world never knew

He wears a suit that never fit him and I hope he finds his way out
Cause there are empty places in our psyche waiting for his touch
Let’s pray he finds his way through the maddening maze to the place where his muse waits  
So that we can find one more place to rest in this parched land of ours

He Wears A Suit

Energetic – That's how I Feel
Electric Chains Drive my Spinnin' Wheels
Energetic – I'm Feelin' Just Right
Energetic – Now Turn-On your Light!

Move Yourself Against the Wind
But Don't get Blown Away
You've been Searching for so Long
But you Don't Know what to Say!

Move Yourself Into that Space
Where Generosity Never Ends
Like a Fountain Lifts your Face
Where the Sorrow starts to Bend!

Don't Ever Ask
Why am I Here
You're Vital to Us
When Our Path's Unclear                         x2
I Need Your Love, Spirit, and Fire!
Spread Astral Wings
My Pen You Inspire!

Move Yourself Against the Wind – but Don't get Blown Away
You've been Searching for so Long, but You Don't Know what to say

Energetic – That's how I Feel !
Electric Chains Drive my Spinnin' Wheels
Energetic – I'm Feelin' Just Right
Energetic – Now Turn-On your Light !!!

Energetic

Dust is a song about leaving things behind to enforce personal growth. Pondering about your past, you can become blind to your present and the growth in between. This emotional dust has to be blown off the surface. Stop negative self talk and realize, that the things you did in the past have been done by your former self. Accept, that there is wrong about it and that there is no way to change certain decicions. Though having the same goal, the person you are today may solve things differently. Special thanks to the band for recording and to Berni Armstrong for tweaking the lyrics.

==== LYRICS ====

I suffocate in an album full of memories
Try to recreate beautiful sceneries
But now all I can see is how I used to be

I can feel
How it's taking over me
Fill my lungs with dust
Misfortune and mistrust

I can't breathe
Cause it's bursting inside me
All covered up with snow
It's time to gain control

I dig into shattered hopes and prophecies
Inhaling life with all its tragedies
But now all I can see is how I used to be

I can feel
How it's taking over me
Fill my lungs with dust
Misfortune and mistrust

I can't breathe
Cause it's bursting inside me
All covered up with snow
It's time to gain control

Can't take my eyes off you
You're just someone I knew
Come take my hand, take me away!

Goodbye to my former self
I'll be somebody else
No regrets and no return!

I can feel
How it's taking over me
Clear my lungs from dust
Misfortune and mistrust

I can breathe
While it's bursting inside me
All covered up with snow
I’ve finally gained control

Ah, clear my lungs from dust!
Ah, clear my lungs from dust!

Dust

Some songs are just meant to be.  In the earliest days of this song's creation, I came to a juncture that was make or break.  Stepping back, giving it some distance, molding it a bit more, it became a keeper, and one that was well received in its first posting over two years ago.  Debbie added her magic a year ago and its reception and audience grew even more.  Now Bix has added his superb vocal talent to take the song to even greater heights.  Have a listen and fly with us as the angels bear us up on their wings.  Hear more of Bix's great songs @user-432405235-236877019

FLY (HE WILL LIFT YOU UP)
Music: David Dunham/Debra Buesking
Lyrics: Bix Bixler
Aaaah….fly with me
Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song

He will lift you up
To rise with Him
On high
And drink His cup
Of love….

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song

He will lift you up
To rise with Him
On high
And drink His cup
Of love…..

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song…

Delighted to team up once again with my good friend & synthmeister extraordinaire, John Buckle (https://soundcloud.com/john-buckle-166792889) for the next track in our Elvenland Saga.

In Chapter Two, left alone and imprisoned, Raewyn laments her fate. But as the storm hits, in the distance she hears the horn of Gildor, the Elven leader. Can she finally have faith that freedom is nigh?
