Reflections

Get what you give

A song about sacrifice and compromise

LYRICS:

As the last of the Great War soldiers hear their bell
They take away all they taught us about hell
And in our minds we just see dust and mud and ruin
But don't mistake that fossil
Cos it's not the truth

They built the walls
and they placed us all within
with brothers from the other lands
in binds of mutual compromise
It's like a marriage
where the vows have worn too thin
We can blame the ring
but it's the finger that's changed size

They give us a minute to think of sacrifice
But glory, death and heroes is all that fills the space
What was offered up in battle is not the lesson we should heed
If we really want the peace
it's sacrifice in peace time that we need

I built the walls
to keep your love within
With other me-s and other you-s
cast aside to die
But like a marriage
where the vows have worn too thin
We can blame the ring
but it's the finger that changed size

If we really want the peace
it's sacrifice in peace time that we need

Peace Time

The Interrogative

The first single from my upcoming album under the moniker "goss" - that I release my more alternative/post-rock oriented music under.

Rainy days, both inside & out... time for change... life choices and decisions...
Diverse feelings & thoughts overflow, fear of risk, of the unknown and failure, but also a liberating sense of renewal and purpose. Time for a leap of faith?

At times like these I often seek advice and courage in the words of fellow seekers, thoughtful adventurers and in a sense “life gamblers”. 
Who better to share a few much needed drinks on the subject than Charles Bukowski – his life according to inner purpose grants him the expertise, and his words will encourage without sugarcoating it... the first move is in your hands… roll the dice, proposes one that did.

Roll the Dice by Charles Bukowski
---
if you're going to try, go all the
way.
otherwise, don't even start.

if you're going to try, go all the
way.
this could mean losing girlfriends,
wives, relatives, jobs and
maybe your mind.

go all the way.
it could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.
it could mean freezing on a
park bench.
it could mean jail,
it could mean derision,
mockery,
isolation.

isolation is the gift,
all the others are a test of your
endurance, of
how much you really want to
do it.
and you'll do it
despite rejection and the worst odds
and it will be better than
anything else
you can imagine.

if you're going to try,
go all the way.
there is no other feeling like
that.
you will be alone with the gods
and the nights will flame with
fire.

do it, do it, do it.
do it.

all the way
all the way.

you will ride life straight to
perfect laughter, it's
the only good fight
there is.

The poem is read by Tom O'Bedlam - in his unique and most appropriately ambiguous manner in my opinion.

A Day in the Life

A song about getting old

LYRICS:

The skin you're wound in
won't keep the sound in
so stop pretending

You hiss and you are steaming
Your eyes are streaming
and I can't say here, no

Slip-on shoes and dripping blues
You're waiting for the shipping news
Birds dive beneath the waves
They're showing you an early grave
The sea is where we go to die
The moon is hidden by the night

Waterfalls run backwards
and continents will drift apart
The universe must shrink again
so you can have your heart restart

I can't stay here
No

Slip-on shoes and dripping blues
You're waiting for the shipping news
Birds dive beneath the waves
They're showing you an early grave
The sea is where we go to die
The moon is hidden by the night

Waterfalls run backwards
and continents will drift apart
The universe must shrink again
so you can have your heart restart

The universe must shrink again
so you can have your heart restart

Dripping Blues

When shall I rest in my nest?

JUST TOO MANY

Too many years been searching
Too many years been dreaming
Too many years been trying to find my day
My day to go 
My day to come
My day to rest in my nest
It shouldn´t matter how high you go
But how hard you fall
And always get back on your feet again!
Too many years, too many ways
Too many dreams in my days

Too many tears falling
Too many fears ruling
Too many hearts broken to find love
My love is lost
My love is here
Drowning in a sea of blood
Shouldn´t matter how much love you get
But how much you give
And always get back on your feet again!

Too many years, too many ways, too many dreams in my day, 
Too many tears, too many fears, too much blood in my love!

Too many years searching
Too many years dreaming
Too many years trying to find my day
Too many tears falling
Too many fears ruling
Too many hearts broken to find love
My love is lost
My love is here
Drown in a sea of blood

JUST TOO MANY (Alfonso Llorente)

Ever Higher

It's a blessing to be able to create music and if someone enjoys my work, that's icing on the cake! All blessings come from God.

As a retired DOD Civil Service worker, I have time to record some. I have been recording at home sice around 1990 and some of my tracks are very old.  I‘ve had 50+ years in bands playing music of many types. I still play the club scene 3 to 4 times a month. Life is good!

I'm a Guitarist who likes to write, record and sing many styles of music. Please check out my tracks. I'm also enjoying the occasional collaborations.  Meeting some good friends on here and continuing to grow. Thank you for listening!


Es una bendición poder crear música y si alguien disfruta de mi trabajo, ¡eso es la guinda del pastel! Todas las bendiciones vienen de Dios. Como trabajador jubilado del Servicio Civil del Departamento de Defensa, tengo tiempo para registrar algunos. He estado grabando en casa durante unos 23 años y algunas de mis pistas son muy antiguas. He tenido más de 50 años en bandas tocando música de muchos tipos. Todavía juego en la escena del club de 3 a 4 veces al mes. ¡La vida es buena! Soy un guitarrista al que le gusta escribir, grabar y cantar muchos estilos de música. Por favor, echa un vistazo a mis pistas. También estoy disfrutando de las colaboraciones ocasionales. Conocer a algunos buenos amigos aquí y seguir creciendo. ¡Gracias por escuchar!
