QUAN YIN

QUAN YIN ft. Rock Flexible

Always looking to collaborate with Jeff and this time MJ-Brewer jumped into the deep end with us.  Did the music first based on a really pretty guitar line Jeff sent.  Mark laid down some bass and I filled in the rest.  It wasn't until Jeff added the lyrics and vocal that we knew it was done. Added the mix and that was that.  We'll have a cool video for this one soon.  Jeff has been exploring stop motion animation and has already put together some cool scenes.


lyrics by Jeff Gardiner

there's really nothing left to say
but i'm going to say it anyway
thought i heard a whisper of the truth
but it didn't matter like i thought it might

Could have been an echo or the humming of a sharpened blade of steel
sliding in the rails of Revolution, the hounds are on the loose, they're on the trail.
The inhabitants are stark raving mad, this is documented well-

Fallen back to when the Radio played Paradise
falling into you, falling into you, i can't stop,i can't stop
i can't stop falling down the rabbit hole of passionate replys
i didn't even know, i didn't even know
that i was broken
till i found some bits of me, lying in a dusty field, in a fever dream
just this side of town...

every time he turns around,he doesn't even know what he is feeling disconnected from
he only finds that he is further down the purgatory path
still hoping for some Reverie
even though it's no longer free
but just this Now in the evening's quiet Twilight
all concerns appear as superficial, like she said,"the more i learn, the less i know" and i concur--

I Concur w/ Stonerjazz and MJ-Brewer

Error enthralls in the bonds of iniquity
Flattering tongues love a lie
Misleading minds love denying reality
Injustice rules every mind 

Soothing false smiles all around, no integrity
Everywhere blind leading blind                
Carelessly living in mindless prosperity
All living on borrowed time 
  
The watchmen are blind 
The shepherds are weak 
The dogs never made a sound        
Their lives are facades and hearts never seek
Then I heard the lion’s roar 
       
God’s dawn breaks, he’s drawing nigh
Improve your time each moment
Build up his kingdom within you
Receive his blessings promised

People are pleasing themselves and each other
Think kindness is flattering tongues
Draped in facades no one sees who they really are
He’ll not know them when he comes

Fire of reality strikes at security
Piercing the clouds with it’s might
Comfort is gone truth will strike at impurity
Darkness cannot stand God’s light
        
The watchmen are blind 
The shepherds are weak 
The dogs never made a sound     
Their lives are facades and hearts never seek
Then they heard the lion’s roar 
         
Wolves soothe peace, peace, but there is no peace
And they speak with bowed tongues
God says cease, cease from iniquity
Be clean, for the Lion comes
       
God’s dawn breaks, he’s drawing nigh
Improve your time each moment
Build up his kingdom within you
Receive his blessings promised
              
Turn from your sins; do them no more for
God’s mercy is here for a time
Through Christ our Lord be forgiven, be justified
Sinless, become sanctified

Improve your time while you can night is drawing nigh
Value the truth and God’s fire
When justice comes there is no time to work or cry out
For you’ll hear his roar
                 
The watchmen are blind 
The shepherds are weak 
The dogs never made a sound       
Their lives are facades and hearts never seek
Then we heard the lion’s roar 
      
God’s dawn breaks, he’s drawing nigh
Improve your time each moment
Build up his kingdom within you
Receive his blessings promised

Caught My Eyes

Imaginary reunion

Every Move

This is the final track for "Next Trail Marker". New album coming soon!!

Out, want to get out
Left foot down from the drivers seat
Stepping toward the front door
Grab my key

Now, who been sweeping sand from my driveway?
Toppled blocks piled up by the sidewalk

Think I want to move away
Out to Green Valley
How about it? 
Never look back

Well, fresh start clean the board
New neighborhood 
Stack ‘em back, better than before

Think I want to move away
Out to Green Valley
How about it? 
Never look back

Golf cart to the grocery store
No one sleeping on the bus stop 
Couldn’t ask for more

Out, want to get out
Left turn down to 19th street
Back away from that front door
Let’s move it out

Think I want to move away
Out to Green Valley
How about it? 
Never look back

I think I want to move away
How about it?

Golf cart to the grocery store
No one sleeping on the bus stop 
Couldn’t ask for more


Out, Want Out

Just for fun.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i’m comin’ around
i won’t back down
got a posy
i’m after you

i’m bringin’ a ring
forget everything
that i told you 
i am ready

god dammit if i have to
climb a mountain
i’ll man it with abandon
racing for you

you’re shootin’ me down
way down to the ground
still i saw you 
Seraphina

god dammit it if i have to
down a dragon
i’ll plan it for your pleasure
send it to me

has anybody
seen my baby
engine’s runnin’
get in

i’m down on my knees
cohabitees
for the weekend
will have to do

god dammit do you have to
always play me
god dammit do you have to
stove me in
god dammit it if i have to
slay a dragon

damn Phina

The picture is my mothers dog ❤️
Update 4 October: He passed away 2 October.. Rest in peace, little friend ❤️

Lyrics:

Every time I came to visit
You danced around my feet
Made happy noises, barked a song
Lots of cuddles, lots of love

You are my friend, like a brother to me
We could talk, have long good walks
Always faithful, with trust in us
So much comfort in my mothers dog

But now you're tired, you need to rest
I know you did you're very best
I will carry you on our last walk
My little brother, my mothers dog

If I was sad, you licked my hand
could always sense and understand
Whenever something was bad or wrong
You were there, your presence so strong

Take a rest now, my brother, my friend
I'm pretty sure I'll meet you again
Then we'll take a long good walk
Lots of cuddles, lots of love

But now you're tired, you need to rest
I know you did you're very best
I will carry you on our last walk
My little brother, my mothers dog

My Mothers Dog

 Hi everyone, hopefully all is well. This is an old song I wrote in the 1990's and re-wrote in 2008 and it's about second chances. I believe everyone should have a second chance at everything in life but in love I believe you must think things through very carefully because it they cheat on you once, there's a good chance they'll cheat on you again! You know the old saying "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me!"  In my humble opinion, some trusts just cannot be broken and once they are broken there's just no turing back. I was cheated on once in my first marriage and that feeling of being stabbed in the back still hurts to this day. If you can't get along with your partner, divorce them and go your own way afterwards but betrayal is always very devastating and I hope no one ever has to go through something like that. 
    I reworked and tweaked the lyrics a little in 2008 to make them less corny but it's very much like a film script where you can see what the characters are saying to each other, in a sort of back and forth interaction in the dialog, and you can get a sense of the doubt that will now always be there in your heart once you have been betrayed. It's really heartbreaking and "second chances" have to be really thought out and handed out very carefully. I still do however believe in them! (I'm a fool, I know!) You must watch the video, I worked hard on the script!😂
    The song is bittersweat and not a love song but more of a "Beware Of Fake Love" song. It's very country & poppy musically and Charlie did a great job singing it! I wanted it to sound light and easy to balance out the heavy lyrics. There are a couple of  key changes, as well as mood changes, in the song. I was going after that Eagles sound of the early 70's, you know that mellow acoustic vibe but with a little Broadway drama thrown in during the middle 8. It's like if the Eagles and the Carpenters had a baby, it would sound like this!😂 

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/eRusaqWHK5o

The video is new, I finished it a couple of month's ago. I tried to have the video follow the script as close as possible. I think it turned out okay, who knows?  Well, I hope everyone enjoys it and remember never betray someone that loves you, one day the shoe may just be one the other foot. Peace out! ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼 

“SECOND CHANCE"

WASN’T IT ME HOW SAID “DON’T GO AWAY?     
BUT YOU DIDN’T CARE, 
YOU SAID YOU’VE GIVEN ALL YOU HAD TO GIVE, 
AND TRUE LOVE WASN’T THERE,
NOW YOU WANT TO COMPROMISE,
SAYING “JUST LET ME EXPLAIN”,
BUT I DON’T WANT TO HEAR YOUR LIES AGAIN,

LET ME REFRESH YOUR MEMORY,     
WASN’T IT YOU THAT SAID “GOODBYE”?
YOU SAID YOU COULDN’T LIVE IN YESTERDAY,
AND TEARS WE LEFT BEHIND, 
NOW SOMEHOW YOU’VE MANAGED,
TO CREEP BACK IN MY HEART,
AND WILLING TO GIVE LOVE A BRAND NEW START,

YES I KNOW I’M A FOOL,          
FOR GIVING YOU A SECOND CHANCE,
TO WEAVE A NEW ROMANCE,           
WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF, OH NO!  
EVERY TIME I REMEMBER,
THOSE HAUNTING MEMORIES,
OF HOW WE USED TO BE,        
I PRAY, THAT YOU,

HAVE REALLY CHANGED FOR THE BETTER,     
YOU WON’T BE SEARCHING ANYMORE,       
WE HAVE A CHANCE TO FIND HAPPINESS,     
DON’T SPOIL IT LIKE BEFORE,       
HOPE I CAN ERASE THE DOUBTS,     
THAT STILL BURN WAY DEEP DOWN,    
HOPE I CAN BE SURE THIS TIME AROUND,
  
YES I KNOW I’M A FOOL,          
FOR GIVING YOU A SECOND CHANCE,       
TO WEAVE A NEW ROMANCE,           
WILL HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF, OH NO!           
EVERY TIME I REMEMBER,        
THOSE HAUNTING MEMORIES,        
OF HOW WE USED TO BE,        
I PRAY, THAT YOU,
        
HAVE REALLY CHANGED FOR THE BETTER,     
YOU WON’T BE SEARCHING ANYMORE,      
WE HAVE A CHANCE TO FIND HAPPINESS,     
DON’T SPOIL IT LIKE BEFORE,       
HOPE I CAN ERASE THE DOUBTS,     
THAT STILL BURN WAY DEEP DOWN,    
HOPE I CAN BE SURE THIS TIME AROUND.
