Dancing in the Rain
©Robert Brewer

All this work without a ceiling.
It's been days and I've been dreaming.
Where does it end?
Where do we begin?

I don't want to hear a maybe.
I don't want to get there first.
I just want to call your name and
let you see me at my worst.

Now I can't stand another day without you
near me can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Chorus:
Goodbye moon.
Goodbye stars.
Goodbye everything you are.
Goodbye sound.
Goodbye light.
Goodbye dreams in black and white.
Goodbye Moon.


In the end I wasn't thinking.
Now I've got this sinking feeling.
I'm out of time. 
No reason why.

When did I become to jaded?
All my pieces in reverse.
I should probably quit complaining
cause it only makes it worse.

When all the world is blurry motion
and I'm frozen can you see me?
Can you see me?

CHORUS
My train is leaving.
I touch your face
and then I slowly turn away.
You call my name.
This time I stay.
and we'll be dancing in the rain
In the rain.

When I wake my eyes are burning
and I've got this awful yearning.
It's all a dream.
I need to scream.

I don't want to leave without you.
I don't want to be alone.
I just want to see you smiling.
No more talking on the phone.

Now I can't stand another day without
you near me. 
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Chorus:

Through a Keyhole

Dancing In The Rain

Breathe Out
©Robert Brewer

VERSE 1:
I don't want to see the night turn into dawn
Cause when sun breaks through I've lost it all

I see you dancing in a crowd inside my mind
And I refuse to let this love unwind

All my life
The day is ending
One more dream
It's just pretending

CHORUS:
So reach out
You're probably watching me
Just breath out
I'm gonna count to three

If you don't wake me up I'm running free

So reach out
You're probably watching me
Just breath out
I'm gonna count to three

If you don't wake me up I'm running free

VERSE 2:
I can feel you when the night begins to fall
Endless memories and I start to lose it all

I hear you calling from dream behind my eyes
My love for you forever stuck in time

All love dies
That's what you told me but
Not this night
I'll force my eyes to shut

CHORUS

Breathe Out

NEVERMORE
© 2017 Robert Brewer

VERSE 1
How’s it going, my old friend?
It’s been a really long time since this thing began.
I’ve been busy, that’s for sure.
I kind of fear I might say the Raven “nevermore.”
For I’ve been on the road for so long dreaming of your sapphire eyes,
waiting for our two worlds to collide.

CHORUS 1:
I don’t want to go this time…
Not unless you’re right here by my side.
I just want to stay lost in time,
and pretend the world has passed us by.

And though I haven’t got a clue which way I’m going, I ask you.
Stay with me. Stay with me this time.

VERSE 2:
Tell me something, tell me true.
Do you worry that I’ll choose this journey over you?
Cause yeah, I’ve been busy. Traveling the land.
But every city I pass is just like water through my hands.  
All my memories feel impaired, my bed is empty, you’re not there, 
so pack your bags and let’s go anywhere.

CHORUS 2:
I don’t want to go this time…
Not unless you’re right here by my side.
I just want to stay lost in time,
and pretend the world has passed us by.

I don’t want to say our goodbyes…
I just want to stare into those eyes.
If you run away with me tonight.
We could see the world come back to life.

BRIDGE:
A thousand books with empty pages left to write.
So watch my eyes and hold my hand real tight.

CHORUS 3:
I don’t want to go this time…
“My old friend”
Not unless you’re right here by my side.
“We could see the world come back to life”
I just want to stay lost in time,
“Hold on tight”
and pretend the world has passed us by.
“If you run away with me tonight.

Nevermore

Through A Keyhole
© Robert Brewer | 7.22.18

Verse 1:
Feels like I’ve been waiting for a light.
I must be blind…Or lost my mind…
If I told you I felt out of time, could you blame me? 
Could you blame me?

And now the sun is slowly rising.
I’m out of time, but I feel fine.

All these open doors are harmonizing
But the sweetest sound says “stick around”

Chorus:
But I’ve been watching my life through a key hole.
Evolution has been waiting for me to come home.

I ran across the world to find some answers for my restless mind
and somehow, I’m still standing, at the starting line.

Verse 2:
Feels like everything was going right. 
An open sky…No clouds in sight.
Now I’m lost and lonely in July.
Can you blame me? Can you blame me? 

And now the storm is galvanizing.
A thunderous sound, is all around.

Feel the rain crash down, it’s not surprising.
So I scream out loud, come take me now. 

Chorus:
But I’ve been watching my life through a key hole
Evolution has been waiting for me to come home

I ran across the world to find some answers for my restless mind
and somehow, I’m still standing, at the starting line.

Bridge:
This feels like waking up in someone else’s mind.
And I’ve never felt so damn confined.

Through A Keyhole

The Sum of Memories
©Robert "Rocky" Brewer

VERSE 1
I’m pretty sure it was September when the journey started
A dozen bags, a couple cars and way too much at stake

A little laugh, a subtle bond and life ahead uncharted
It’s either gonna be amazing or a big mistake

Oh, I know I was scared to start
Oh, but the ending could break my heart

CHORUS:
Close your eyes
Open up your heart
Maybe you’ll become something more
Cause life is made of doors
We are the sum of all of these memories

Sunsets and hugs and sad goodbyes

Spend your days wondering why
And life will pass you by


VERSE 2
The cities came the cities went and life grew more demanding
We fought we loved and through it all I knew we’d never break

A little luck, a lot of trust and no clue where we’re landing
We’ll either end up at the top or fall flat on our face

Oh, what more is there left to do? 
Oh, what else have we got to lose?


CHORUS:
Spend your life standing by
And time will pass you in the night

BRIDGE:
I used to think that I’d seen all there was to see
But then I finally closed my eyes
And now I see
 

CHORUS:

The Sum of Memories

The Sum Of Memories

Written with inspiration from the art supplies created by Jane Davenport.

Verse 1:
Late at night I can’t sleep
I’ve been blocked, can’t create a thing.
I’m sure that everything will be alright
I shut my eyes, see a light in the dead of night.

Running fast to catch it
Find a door that’s made of matches.
My magic wand has one last spark.
Hold it up, let it fly and ignite the dark.


Bridge 1:
Give me Neon Queens in the magazines,
It’s a golden age, a brand new page, I’m gonna
Break free of the masquerade.
Shipwrecked, trust the mess, I don’t need a thing.

Sun bleached warm heart, noble red in hue.
Warm seas, feel something building up in you, you’re gonna
Break free of the rules tonight.
Now your feathered friends are taking flight.

Chorus 1:
We are, making faces! 
No one can tell us what to do.
See the light make it shine growing bright in you.

And we are, young and ageless.
I don’t need an invitation to
Fall down the rabbit hole with you.

Verse 2:
Just beyond horizon
A new dawn is rising.
I want to see it come before I wake.
Outcast, hold fast to the break of day.

I can feel that time is slipping.
Ruby red shoe heels are clicking.
Small signs the night is almost through.
Then I see you running past me and I know it’s true.

Bridge 2:
In a field of color green in hue, 
running fast as the wind, I’m catching up to you.
Then you turn around and look my way.
You say we’ll make it, it’s a brand new day.

A celestial sky with your ocean eyes,
Tin of glances with the tinsel lights, and we can
Hardly wait to make a brand new start.
It’s all around us like a work of art.

Chorus 2:
We are, making faces! 
No one can tell us who to be
See the light make it shine growing bright in me.

And we are, painting pages.
I can see you’re making up the rules.
When you dance with the danger, it’s incredible.


Bridge Alt:
As the dream is fading,
The landscape’s reshaping.
You stand there waving in the light.

The sun finally breaks the skyline.
A Rose empress shining bright. I’m
No longer dreaming black and white.

Bridge 3:
Now the chilled out girls with the violet eyes,
And a band of strangers riding high.
We’re gonna take back the ice palaces.
Make it rain, no one cares about the consequence

Got my ripped up jeans and and a sword with rust.  
You don’t need degrees to hang with us, we’re gonna
Stop time and watch the world begin.
We’re gonna play it like a violin.	

Chorus 1:
We are, making faces! 
No one can tell us what to do.
See the light make it shine growing bright in you.

And we are scales of laces.
I don’t need an invitation to
Fall down the rabbit hole with you.

Chorus 2:
We are, going places! 
No one can tell us who to be
Take the light make it shine it’s Artomology.

And we are, brave and tameless.
I can see you’re making up the rules
When you dance with the danger, it’s incredible.

Making Faces

Maze Rat
©2020 Robert “Rocky” Brewer

Just look me in the eye,
and tell me one more lie. 
Then, maybe I can say goodbye
And finally get on with my life.

I don’t wish to be
Led on endlessly
I am not a game
Or some dying flame

You can say you’re right
Kick and cry all night 
Take your so called love
To the cliff and shove  

If you want to make it, maybe
You should not be so damn shady
High hope procrastination
I’m not angry, I’m just sayin’

Needed something to rely on
But you gave me silence and a yawn
In the end I never guessed that
I’d become a full blown maze rat 


Delay it one more day
Maybe it will go away
Procrastination in my face
Respect and honor left no trace and

Not the first and not the last
To believe you’re better than that

And now you watch me leaving
What a shame this could have been amazing 


I don’t think you know
How a flower grows
This was not a test
I gave you my best

Now the cards are set
And you’ve lost the bet
Head down in my hands
I had such great plans

Maze Rat

Behind the Blue
©Robert "Rocky" Brewer

I’ve been waiting for the stars to shine through the clouds but
revelations don’t come easy and feel unavowed.
 
Flowers planted in the garden can grow strong and tall but
when you leave them unattended, the weeds take them all.  


I can see the truth inside you.
It’s just beyond the blues of your eyes; of your smiles.
Waiting patiently to break through; to wake you.

I always wait till the morning to see    
but never ever changes. 
I’m screaming. 

CHORUS:
Why did call my name if all you really wanted was somebody to blame?
Oh, I am not the cure for your blindness. 
There’s no one else to blame for your timeless masquerade. 

All the words to break your armor just make you feel small and
Though there’s truth to what I’m saying, you might as well be a wall.
  
I can see the truth inside you.
It hides behind tattoos of demise and disguise.
Waiting patiently to snake through; to break you.

I always wait till the evening to see    
but never ever changes. 
I’m screaming. 

CHORUS:
Why did you stay same when all the arrows pointed in the opposite way?
Oh, you were left to your own devices
Nothing more to life than this priceless masquerade

Worlds Away
©2020 Robert Brewer
  
Verse 1:
I don’t really know you.
I don’t know for sure that you’d care but
Every time I see your face I smile.

And I think you’re beautiful,
Full of life and undisputable
And I know it’s all words but maybe someday
You’ll need to hear it from stranger that you moved them in the best way.

Verse 2:
You don’t really know me.
And you’ve got no reason to care but, 
When I hear you sing I recognize.

That you fought and worked hard,
Relied on your bond and shared each other’s scars. 
It’s a family like no other; it’s a moment you cannot replace.

Chorus:
I know we’re worlds away 
I understand perfectly | choong-boon-hee i-hae-hah-go i-soum-ni-da
I hope your dreams come true | 꿈을 이루길 바랄게라 | kkum-eul ilugil balalgela
The world is at your door’s step. | 세상을 다 가져라. | | sesang-eul da gajyeola 
I’m proud of you | 자랑스러워 | jalangseuleowo 

The way you tilt away when they throw shade
When you rip your brothers like a bandaid
When you laugh, I see new colors
And the air that you move is like no other.

In the end, you’ll find love. 
Until then: 
You got this | 힘내 | himnae
Don’t give up | 포기 하지마 | pogi hajima|

Crank up the tunes! | 음악 좀 크게 들읍시다! |   
Eum-ag jom keuge deul-eubsida!

Brother’s Song | 형제 | hyeongje | 노래 | nolae
Dance | 댄스 | daenseu
Be Free | 자유롭다 | jayulobda

Verse 3:
There’s a winding road here.
Full of love and loss mixed with loud cheers.
Cameras capture all but what’s inside.

And you’re all so dutiful, 
Filling time with a rhyme that’s suitable
And a dance with a chance to break down the great divide. 

Verse 4:
We don’t really know each other.
I would never claim to be your brother but,
You should know I love you just the same.

And I hope you understand
The sea can’t stop connection between the sands
All you have to do is “say the name.”

Chorus:

Bridge:
And every stage you play and war you wage together
will make you stronger in the end.
This universe knew you would be birds of a feather
And built a legacy that time cannot unbend.

Chorus:

Last verse:
I don’t really know you,
I don’t know for sure that you’d care but
Every time I see your face I smile.

Take Me Home

It's Not Over

Get Back In Line
©Robert "Rocky" Brewer

VERSE 1:
Never want to play along.
Never want to do the job.
Never want to be the one
to fuck it up and be all wrong.

But I…
I know a way.
To betray that little bitch inside you.

So settle down and just stay
inside your shell all damn day.
Until you feel this shock wave
to take you to an early grave.

CHORUS:
All you have to do is
get your shit together.
Work hard and be better.
Take this life for what it is.
Put yourself out there and
try to make the best of it.

There are no excuses.
Only bites and bruises.
And if you’re waiting for a sign,
you might as well get back in line.


VERSE 2:
Never want to take the blame.
Always late and lacking shame.
Drink and drive, adventure bound.
Until you run a family down.

But I…
I know a way
to escape that little  twat inside you.  

CHORUS:
All you have to do is
get your shit together.
Work hard and be better.
Take this life for what it is.
Put yourself out there and
try to make the best of it.

There are no excuses.
Only bites and bruises.
And if you’re waiting for a sign,
you might as well get back in line.

The silence - 
©Robert "Rocky" Brewer

Is it now, or will it be
realized or guaranteed?  
Let’s read a book, and then we’ll forget the pages.

Listen close, for it is told
this story’s not too late or old.
And It’s a truth that rings out across the ages.

She gave you everything you have.
Great river, mountain pass.
Now she sings but you don’t hear at all.

And whether right or wrong, dear,
we will live or die here.  
 
Chorus:
But all I hear is silence.
In the distance echos fade away.
I know they won’t return, babe.
But you have to listen anyway.

The tides may come, the seasons go, 
the wind may change, and you will know
the time has come to finally put your 
armor down and breath again.

All alone, fading slow.
Final breath, she won’t let go.
Let’s bite the hand that feeds us one more time.

We’ll make a toast to greed and lies,
a hundred promises denied,
and a 4% increase this year.

No more need to care at all,
cause the world’s about to fall,
and she’s far too tired to lift her head. 

And whether right or wrong, dear,
we all lived and died here.

But all she hears is silence,
In the distance echos fade away
and no they won’t return, babe.
No one there to listen anyway.

The tides they came, the seasons went, 
the wind did change, and we all went
and all she needed was a little love 
so she could breath again.

Is it just a story? 
Maybe there’s no need to worry.
Let’s just go to sleep and dream our dreams.
And she’ll always be there.
Open arms and fresh air.
Probably best we don’t do anything.

Chorus

The Silence

Julie
©Robert "Rocky" Brewer

Julie are you home?
It's Friday night.
Let's get inside your car and drive, if that's alright.
I want to see the lights of the city with you by my side.

Julie and don't know why I'm so blue but we could find a world that we belong to.
No more making coffee's, no more doing anything we don't want to do.

It's our life and we'll live it.
Make this song and we'll sing it until the end.
We'll sing it till the end.

Chorus:
So, Julie.
You're my favorite girl in the whole wide world.
There's no-one I'd rather see.
Oh, Julie.
You make me feel it's okay to stop my life and just play.
Oh, and we're okay.

Julie I don't care about your messy room,
your dodgy toilet, or your nasty broom,
cause underneath the mess there's something beautiful in you.

All the times you passed out on my floor from drinking so much
beer that you couldn't walk next door.
All the laughing, all the hopes and dreams we shared.

It's our life and we'll live it. 
Make this song and we'll sing it until the end.
We'll sing it till the end.

Chorus

No one plays the penny game like you.
No one pulls off silver high heel shoes.
No one naps more gracefully past noon.
No one's better when it comes to pulling through.

No one walks the walk as great as you.
No one pays the bills as late, it's true.
No one gives as much with regard to 
all the things in life we can't see through.

Chorus

It's our life and we'll live it.
Make this song and we'll sing it.
Until the end.
Until the end.
