The Enemy Inside

Another composition recorded before the war. I hope one day I will return to my home studio. Any support from you is much appreciated on these extremely hard times for our country, our family. 
I could have recorded much new music for the last 9 months... unless russians came to our yard to "save" us with their tanks, missiles, bombs and war planes at 4 a.m. on Feb 24th. And yes, they saved us from our house, from our normal life, from our dreams and plans. They saved my elderly parents from their home and peaceful life in retiring, saved my daughter from happy childhood, from school, from her friends and vacation by the sea. We'll never forget and never forgive it! I'm sure that russia will get what it deserves - each rocket they launch on Ukraine will turn to another 10 years of disaster for their cowardly people.
 Special thanks to Houman (@houmans) for mastering the track! Please check out his wonderful soundtracks.

Gone

THE RETURN OF LIGHT
The freezing night is still and thick, but it’s darkness will soon be broken,
The end of longest day ahead and the start of a the new day to come. 
Amidst the snow and biting air, the heartbeat holds steady, 
Anticipating Spring ahead and what the new light of day holds unspoken.

The dancing rays, sky set aglow, bring warmth and light, 
Languor and strife come to a peaceful end, 
Bringing in a change, whence the days will start to bright. 
The solstice, half way through the season, gives a happy mend.

The promising return of warm and gold, 
Sparkles of life and beauty, both will unfold. 
The spiral of life and gift of hope, 
Breathes fresh life into the lands that we roam.

-Dan

Shiny silver, eyes of steel,nothing inside ‘cept the 
rush you feel,
And your the cold wind from the unshut door
Your what’s missing from the kitchen draw
We all think we’re different, but your not the same
No magic water, gonna shift this stain 

And no ones listening and no one cares

Do you remember, the middle of that day
You lost your shadow,when the sky went grey
But silver still shone, bright in your hand
As you took the short cut,to the house of the damned
And that moments gone now, long disappeared 
Along with your shadow, even though the sky has cleared 

And no ones listening and no one cares 

Down by the river, the lights are on
You hear the sirens, sing out their song
What price forgiveness, can it be bought 
When your really sorry, that you got caught 
And they found you guilty, as you were charged 
But shiny silver is still at large

And no ones listening and no one cares 

Or so it seems

Heavy like a gold bar
They told me that I’d go far
Heavy like a gold bar

The Unshut Door( Acoustic)

Music has always been an important element to my life and helps keep me balanced. Every since I was young I’ve been extremely creative whether it’s writing, art or music and it’s cool to have this platform to share some of my ideas
