Still Light

Vocals, guitar, and foot operated drums all performed live by Franko Malley

wasted away again
now i'm coming home my friend
this is not the way i envisioned it
it's all my fault

its not the time to mend and heal
its time to make repairs
all my loves and my relationships
and to all the things i broke

the air... still feels...
the same... round here...
and i'm all there is to blame
and its all my fault

the faces when i close my eyes
remind me of my shame.
and take me to a place i can't let go
and it's all my fault

just let me go home
i can do better
i can do better

all these tears can't wash away all that wretched pain
just let me do better
lord let me do better

there's that line in the dirt
made of soil and decay
let me do better
let me do better

theres that long dark road
where i been down before
let me do better
let me do better

Dark Roads

So you had an epiphany? You realized that love was the key. You went running through the streets of the anti-utopia screaming that all we need is love. So many songs, so many books, so many poems, so many speeches; time and time again, we return to love being the key.

Why can't we just follow the rules? That would be too easy. To trust in God and just love, knowing that even if someone intended you physical harm that the universe is bigger than their need for attention. The urge to talk and be heard is what has us creating obstacles against hugs.

The little ones are watching! They are looking for the way that is naturally familiar to them. Love makes sense. Understanding takes an adult filter, love knows itself from birth. Everyone knows what embrace feels like or what it could feel like. Why do we hoard it like gold? Like all currencies, shouldn't it be spent?

There is no conspiracy here! Love is the key! It's not hard to figure out once someone has shown you the way! If you find yourself in a cliche form of love, love it!

This is a brand new song.  A continuation of my poetry-to-song project.
This time I have converted a poem of the same title by Robert Browning.
Just tell me what you think about it.   Thanks for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
 While I am I, and you are you
  So long as the world contains us both
  Me the loving and you the loth
 While the one eludes, must the other pursue

Escape me ?  Never -  Beloved !
I shape me – Ever removed ! 

 My life is a fault at last, I fear
  It seems too much like a fate, indeed!
  Though I do my best I’ll scarce succeed
 But what if I fail of my purpose here ?

 It’s but to keep the nerves at strain
  To dry one's eyes and laugh at a fall
Baffled, get up, begin again
 So the chase takes up one's life, that's all 

Escape me ?  Never -  Beloved !
I shape me – Ever removed !

 While, look but once from your farthest bound
  At me so deep in the dust and dark,
 No sooner the old hope goes to the ground
  Than a new one, straight to the self-same mark

Life In a Love

Just trying to capture the actual intent of whoever wrote the original 
Loch Lomand, the standard...

Loch Lomand

By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes,
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond,
Where me and my true love were ever wont to gae,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.

Chorus:
O ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore ye,
But me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.

'Twas there that we parted, in yon shady glen,
On the steep, steep side o' Ben Lomond,
Where in soft purple hue, the highland hills we view,
And the moon coming out in the gloaming.

Chorus

The wee birdies sing and the wildflowers spring,
And in sunshine the waters are sleeping.
But the broken heart it kens nae second spring again,
Though the waeful may cease frae their grieving.

Chorus

Loch Lomand
