This is a fairly complete revision of the original upload of August 2022. It is a jubilant piece that needs to be taken in its own  terms. The musical vocabulary in this piece is very conservartive and it obeys conventional structural norms.

Night of Golden Stars Revision EWQLSO version 25 September 2023

I was a dot inside my own tapestry 
I was amused by all a those they things 
the did not see

but all that I really needed was
somebody else to believe and read 
all the Natural Rhapsody 
all the Natural Rhapsody 

I walked alone inside a my own territory 
I was a victim of my own stupidly 

but all that I really needed was
somebody else to believe and read 
all the Natural Rhapsody 
all the Natural Rhapsody 

no target on my back but
still they kicking me

while I'm down struggle to see
what's staring straight at me 
one way ticket to happy

I was inertias latest cripple casualty 
I was immune to all a their forms
and repartee

but all that I really needed was
somebody else to believe and read 
all the Natural Rhapsody 
all the Natural Rhapsody 
all the Natural Rhapsody 


Natural Rhapsody

Reach out to god.

(letting out some adrenalin) 
I was into a little heavy stuff this time... Keep your hands on the wheel and drive safely
music and compositon Torbjørn october 24

keep your hands on the wheel

A song created with ai (concept by me), written for a friend that gone too soon from these damn bikes. Always wear helmets and the best is not to ride them at all, because they took already many lives and young souls very unfairly, close friends and acquaintances. Careful y'all out there, 4 wheels are always safer with normal speed of course, because this can be truly dangerous too if you overestimate your limits and strengths.

Speed Shadows (R.I.P Takis)

A song recorded in 2023 inspired by a documentary I watched based on the child care system in Great Britain.
So as we all get ready to enjoy Christmas with our family and friends spare a thought for this. 
There’re was a little boy who shared a memory that all he as left of his life with his real mother  was a few toy soldiers and a snow globe.
They sat on a shelve for him to think & remember that for whatever reason his mother gave him up. 
He was one of the lucky children who managed to get adopted and find a new loving family to take care of him. 
Others not so and stay In children’s homes until they were 18.
And here is the problem once they became 18 they became no longer a problem for the system. 
With  little or no help they  are expected to leave & fend for themselves without the love or security like a normal young person would expect from his family. 
The system is so floored & totally under funded hence kick the can down the street & watch it land at another’s feet.
Not the government’s problem anymore.
The adoption system is such a long draw out process that it puts future potential step parents off. 
So many children just stay in the system until they are 18 and then are classed as adults.
They may be adults but not ready for the world alone, outside the door.
We still guide our own adult children through their journey into further education, work, relationships, home buying & beyond.
It scares me that we have youths carrying knives & even guns for protection and in other cases just to conform to gang culture and be the big man. 
Im sure that a lot of these youths have a loving family, warm house, food in their belly & wear designer clothes. Yet still find the urge to harm someone because it makes them feel good and show off.
I’m sure we could write a fluffy Christmas song with all the cliches  but we choose not to. 
Hope you enjoy and pause for thought.
So we bring you Tiny Soldiers & Snow Globes…….. 



Intro Chorus 
Just kick the can down the street 
And when it lands at another’s feet
they can kick it on to the next 
That how they make out they are doing their best


V1
And the only thing on the upswing 
And what’s needed more & more 
(Are Tiny soldiers and snow globes
Just symbols of a life that he hardly knows x2)

Chorus 
Just kick the can down the street 
And when it lands at another’s feet
they can kick it on to the next 
That how they make out they  are doing their best
…………….
Tiny Soldiers & Snow globes x2
It’s an absolute mess 


V2 
And now it’s the end of care and totally unfair 
To defend  for yourself and to be thrown out
(Tiny soldiers & snow globes 
Are not something he can talk about x2)

Chorus 
Just kick the can down the street 
And when it lands at another’s feet
they can kick it on to the next 
That how they make out 
they are doing there best
……………….
Tiny Soldiers & Snow globes x2
Its an absolute mess 

 Middle 8  ending

And to all of you 
if only we really new
Just how lucky you really are
To be loved and treated 5star 
We all can’t have it all 
it’s really not fair 
Surely there’s enough love 
to go around and share
Unconditional love
for everyone 
but someone lost the will to care
And moved his chair x4
Tiny soldiers & Snow globes 
We all can’t have it all 



Tiny Soldiers & Snow Globes - Conscience Of Kings

lyrics

Show me what's above and between
The real things
The real things
Mind's been in the clouds but the people
The people they wait, they wait
The reaction in your eyes it tells me
Tells me to feel
Tells me to feel

These are real things
Yeah they're real things
Show me what's above and between
The real things
The real things

Close the door that I still see through
I'm going in for the kill
In for the kill
Silver skies but it is night time
Show me something real
Something real
The reaction in your eyes it tells me
Tells me to feel
Tells me to feel

Ah the real things
These are the real things
the real things

Patterned colors lead a path to my front door
To my front door
I stare at the metal pythons while their evidence bleeds
Their evidence bleeds

up to here

Real Things

Lightning

A haunting story of love, loss, and reckoning. Live With My Ghost captures the moment when pain becomes power—when the one left behind rises from the ashes, leaving only an echo in the heart that betrayed them. Dark, soulful, and cinematic, it’s the sound of letting go and becoming the ghost that won’t fade.  This song started with resolving some pain from a relationship that was very intense but never had a chance to be realized to its full potential.  During the development of lyrics, the song took a different path from its original message, becoming this release of the negative energy that this type of ending can bring to light.   

Lyrics:

You came like thunder through the calm of my sky,
Lit the ashes, made the dead man rise.
Fed me hope like holy wine,
Then pulled the cup away as I closed my eyes.
You left me bleeding where the truth won’t fade,
While the love you burned is the price you paid.

Now you have to live with my ghost,
Hear my voice in the wind you chose.
Every word you spoke still echoes through your bones
You’ll never find rest, you’ll never atone.
Now you have to live, live with my ghost.

You built a heaven just to watch it fall,
Drew me close, then vanished behind your wall.
I crawled through fire just to feel your rain,
But you turned that mercy into pain.
You broke the circle, you cut the line,
But I still breathe inside your mind.

Now you have to live with my ghost,
Feel my breath in the cold you know.
Every tear I cried became your undertow.
You’ll never find peace where my shadow goes.
Now you have to live, live with my ghost.

I rose from the wreckage,
Left the chains behind.
You can keep the memory—
I’ve reclaimed what’s mine.

Now you have to live with my ghost,
I’m the echo you can’t let go.
You built this haunting stone by stone—
I walk in the light while you reap what you sow.
Now you have to to live, live with my ghost…
with my ghost…
