After The Rain (feat. Bright Light Bright Light)

Fairly simple song I wrote quite quickly (quickly for me anyway) with added attempted enlivening of final chorus by means of cod-orchestrals. 
---

I want another cup of coffee but I've had too much already
I get caught up in the details and then I feel a bit unsteady
So I'm staring through the window at the people out at lunchtime
In the sunshine

I dreamt I went to heaven on the train
Oh they've got canapes and badges where you write your name and I
Sat next to an angel
We got into conversation
I got caught up in the details
And I missed my destination

I thought I knew just what I wanted but I did not know my nature
You get caught up in the details and then it's five years later
And when you told me that you loved me well I know at first you meant it
(I know you really meant it)

[Repeat chorus]

Can't be ordinary and also extraordinary
I'm tying not to be someone who's going to let you down

[Repeat first verse]

Think I'm gonna go out in the sunshine

[Repeat chorus]

Caught Up In The Details

Written, recorded, produced and performed by Ryan Lamey, 'Disordered' is Ryan's first solo release in over 15 years. The album moves beyond the familiar acoustic pop of Ryan’s previous solo releases and, thematically, the songs explore gratitude, grief, and ghosts - and other people not easily forgotten.

Monster

I see the sly fox laughing……..a moment to hide (perhaps)


Lyrics:

An army of wisdom follows you
To the enth and nine
I follow a single footstep behind
As the hour glass burns….

Now only this light could shine
Where it seems impossible
Only this light could shine….

Winter’s moodless moment undone
Clouds carry me on ….
I wish it….
Into forests, into glades
The swirling mists turn

Dreams falter
Like I am dreaming in silence
Eyes wide as foxes
Inside I fall again
Dream maker
Inside I fold 
I am folding Wide eyed foxes
Inside I’m born again
Whilst the monsters 
Are mocking the mighty ahead…..

Summer sun will you stay?
“there is only this moment…
Touch it……”

Now only this light could shine
Where it seems impossible
Only this light could shine….
Dreams falter
Like I am dreaming in silence
Eyes wide as foxes
Inside I fall again
Dream maker
Inside I fold 
I am folding Wide eyed foxes
Inside I’m born again

Forbidden thought hidden
I hid a thought, hidden
Yet you say
“Do you see me laughing at you?”
Wide eyed, i say
“Oh yes!”

Wide Eyed In Foxes

Three sisters run a grocery shop on the outskirts of Wirksworth, though only two have ever been seen. This is the last mix of the latest tune we did before the computer blew up.

Brahma Youth

Three Sisters

Chasing lights of dying stars
Unwilling to make peace with our past
And future yet to come
Another step and you will see
This heart is locked but not from the inside
No wonder it is numb

Damn you with your innuendos
Can't you see I'm trying to end this?
Damn your cynical suggestions
I don't think I have the patience

I'm sick and I'm tired of your flawlessness
And your righteousness
And I'm glad that although you keep shining
I'm no longer impressed

Running low on serotonin
I need more time to grow some skin
And stop this latent state of mind
If all the choice I have as human
Is be myself or be ignored
Then **** this, I'm one of my own kind

Damn you with your innuendos
Can't you see I'm trying to end this?
Damn your cynical suggestions
I don't think I have the patience

I'm sick and I'm tired of your flawlessness
And your righteousness
And I'm glad that although you keep shining
I'm no longer impressed

Yes, I know that to many people, including myself, this song is sacrosanct. I hope we approached it with due reverence and respect, I'd like to think so.

HOPE THERE'S SOMEONE: ROB SYMONS VOCAL

DEEP INSIDE


This track was written by David Batchelor & Mark Jeffery and recorded on an 8-track Tascam cassette machine in the 1990s by Fletch at Tracy's apt. on 2nd & Sth. St. Phila., PA. 
At the same time DSMQ recorded Into The Arms of The Hugging Ground with Fletch.
I mastered it as best as I could New Years Eve 2011 on Pro Tools using Izotope plugins.

Happy New Year!
