When https://soundcloud.com/ipg1, historical SC member, offered this open collab from one of his pages: https://soundcloud.com/level-one-up1/unused-multiples-140-bpm-open-for-collab, I was immediately inspired by the modern sound where I felt some rock wanting to get out!

¿son gotas de lluvia, o son de llanto?  /  are they raindrops, or because of crying?

Un pasivo gris inunda mi mente,  /  A passive grayness floods my mind,
un gris silencioso que empaña el cielo,  /  a silent grey that steams the sky,
y estos tonos muertos que nadie vierte,  /  and these dead tones that no one pours,

Here the sister tracks: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/this-is-them-last-version and https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/is-this-you. I must point out that there is no reference to the famous TV series of the same title. The inspiration again obviously came from the short Julio Cortazar story, 'Axolotl'. (here: https://ambystoma.uky.edu/teachers_materials/axolitbook/AxolotlByJulioCortazar.html ).

Lyrics:

Lockers slam, final bell rings clear,
Perfume and sweat, emotions sincere
Tim's goofy grin, Jack's quiet nod,
Friends since childhood, now paths odd
If only I knew, this moment I'd chase

Time slips away, like sand through our hands
The future unknown, as we make our plans

These are the lasts we don't recognize
Fleeting moments before our goodbyes
If I'd known then what I know now
I'd hold on tighter, somehow
To these precious lasts

Grandpa's den, pipe smoke curls,
Cards snap, his laughter unfurls,
Weathered hands, stories untold,
Moments more precious than gold
If only I'd known, I'd change that night

Time slips away, like sand through our hands
The future unknown, as we make our plans

These are the lasts we don't recognize
Fleeting moments before our goodbyes
If we'd treasured then what we've lost now
I'd hold on tighter, somehow
To these precious lasts

Grandpa's den, pipe smoke curls,
Cards snap, his laughter unfurls,
Weathered hands, stories untold,
Moments more precious than gold
(Moments more precious than gold)
If only I'd known, I'd change that night

Time slips away, like sand through our hands
The future unknown, as we make our plans

These are the lasts we don't recognize
Fleeting moments before our goodbyes
If we'd treasured then what we've lost now
I'd hold on tighter, somehow
To these precious lasts
(These precious lasts)

Shadows lengthen, day fades to night
Memories flicker like candlelight
Each passing second, a gift in disguise
Open your heart, open your eyes

City lights flicker, radio hums our song
One last hug, 'See you soon,' feels so wrong
'We have all the time,' he said with a smile
If only we knew, we'd talk for a while
In photographs and fading scents
The love in each moment we spent

These are the lasts we don't recognize
Fleeting moments before our goodbyes
Now I know what I wish I'd known then
I'll hold on tighter, again and again
To these precious lasts
(These precious lasts)

Life's rich tapestry, woven with care,
Threads of lasts, love everywhere,
These precious lasts
We'll always have
These precious lasts
In every goodbye, a hello waits there

These are the lasts we don't recognize
Fleeting moments before our goodbyes
Now I know what I wish I'd known then
I'll hold on tighter, again and again
To these precious lasts

Precious lasts

Unrecognized Goodbyes

A song for Earth and the hope.we don't warm it too much


Lyrics

Who calls me/you?
Who's ears are these?
Who breaks this complicated freeze?
Who wants to play and race the breeze?
Who needs to heed to the two degrees
Who wants to share the real and true?
Who wants the fair to linger through?
Who wants an equal sided dream?
Who wins each time on a losing team?
Stop demanding independence not withstanding the lions carbon share
In spirit, here is a call for the Earth 🌎

Mystery

Ibiza!

Nostromo - Ibiza!

Life ain't fair, no, 
it ain't a level game 
Some get all the sunshine,
 some just feel the rain.

 We're dealt these random hands, 
and play the cards we're given 

But the house is always winning,
 the odds are always driven. 

Life ain't fair, 
a bitter truth I know
 But somewhere in the chaos,
 a flicker starts to grow.


Life ain't fair, 
no, 
it ain't a level game Some get all the sunshine, some just feel the rain. 

We're dealt these random hands, 
and play the cards we're given 

But the house is always winning,
 the odds are always driven. 

Maybe it's not about winning, 
or reaching some grand prize 
Maybe it's finding strength, 
in the tears that fill our eyes. 

Maybe it's building bridges, 
with others lost and weak 
Maybe it's finding meaning,
 in the words we barely speak.

Life ain't fair, a bitter truth I know

Life ain't fair, a bitter truth I know
