Upon This Sea 
Janine Levinson 2023
Guitar and Mix: Jonathan Beckenstein

I don’t get tired, but I get weary   
Feels like my faith abandons me
And from the storm I have no shelter    
I have no boat upon this sea

I don’t feel bad, but I can feel hopeless      
And I can walk, but I lose my feet
I am strong, but I cannot carry    
I have no boat upon this sea
 
Upon this sea   
Upon this sea   
I tread a lifetime 

I am the spring that you will drink from
I give you life and cool your brow
You will not drown, but you will perish
And next to me you will lie down 

Upon this sea  
Upon this sea 
I tread a lifetime

I don’t get tired, but I sure get weary
Feels like my faith abandons me
And from the storm I have no shelter
I have no boat upon this sea

Upon This Sea - with Jonathan Beckenstein

Time stopped in Santa Cruz.

===============================

I created this composition, like others, between 2014 and 2016.

I finished work and went with my iPad to create music.

The center of all this time was the neighborhood of Santa Cruz, in the center of Seville, my city.

Anyone who visits my city will inevitably pass by there.

Some of my favorite tapas places are there.

The terraces of some hotels have spectacular views from which you can enjoy the city while having a drink, a coffee, a wine, or whatever you prefer. I know them all.

The small squares full of tranquility, the murmur of water from some fountains, the sensation of feeling history as a pure essence! or the smell of orange blossom, which permeates everything around this time of year, make me enjoy something special that, in some way, I need. It's hard to explain, but that's how it is.

And there it seems that time stops.

 Assassins of Secrets

first they feared the forest
bright eyes in the dark
underworld held them thrall

then hiding from their our own weapons
madmen controlled the sky
to us they seem so small

today their race looks up to learn
we gather round outside
their mind wall

we are the assassins of your secrets
we can`t see
your human soul
is it a lie about a lie
pretty stories
to cover up a hole
will we ever know


the last wall of their castle
anxious animals
you never were alone
call us by many names
the Enemy the Others
all but your thoughts are known


we are the assassins of your secrets
we can`t see
your human soul
is it outside the lying mind
something you stole
or just another role
will we ever know

Chloe! Chloe!
 Someone's calling, no reply
 Nightshade's falling, hear him sigh 
Chloe! Chloe!
Empty spaces in his eyes
 Empty arms outstretched, he's crying

Through the black of night
 He’s got to go where you are
If it's wrong or right 
 He’s got to go where you are

He’ll roam through the dismal swampland
 Searching for you 
cause if you are lost there
 Let him be there, too

Through the smoke and flame 
 He’s got to go where you are
 For no place could be too far 
Where you are

Ain't no chains can bind you
 If you live, he’ll find you
 Love is calling him 
He’s got to go where you are

Chloe! Chloe!

Lyrics
Got myself ready for a big night out
Shined up my shoes a new Italian shirt
I see her across the room I try to catch her eye
She gives a little smile as she drinks her wine

So I move across and sit by her and buy her a drink
We compare our spray on tans and we compare ink
Get your coat you've pulled and we go back to mine
But I've drank too much so she finds it's a waste of time

When will I ever learn
I'm like a moth to a flame going back again and again

But like falling off a bike you get back on
So I'm out again for the same again and the search for fun
I hit 13 bars I drink in every one
So it's unsurprising that I finish on my own

When will I ever learn
I'm like a moth to the flame 
Going back again and again

It wasn't meant to be like this
I had a home I had a wife and kids
But the bottle took a hold of me and it never left
Unlike everything and everyone else

When will I ever learn
I'm like a moth to the flame going back again and again 

Woke up this morning on my own again
My head is gonna burst
And I feel like hell.............

13 Bars (Moth To The Flame)

13 Bars

I'm not doing any music these days,so I thought I'd post one I did years ago. It's a cover of a Paul Ads song I've always loved.

Paul Adamson is a damn fine songwriter and I hardly ever record covers of other folk's work,but this one resonated deeply with me and still does after repeated listens.
I didn't lean too heavy on the production on this,because I wanted to allow the song to shine. I hope you enjoy and bring a few listens to Paul's cloud.
