My child, many fear the dark
Its no sweet candy creams
Shadows play like its a park
A haunting seed for dreams

You are not alone
You will be okay
Echoes in your home
Are just spirits come to play

Because we're here are we not?
We are here together
We're here, are we not?
We're birds of a feather

They're just curious and hurting
Confused by sudden change
But when they see you hurting
You may find something strange

That they can stop too
They can care for you
That all that we do
We can put down its true

Because we're here are we not?
We are here together
We're here, are we not?
We're birds of a feather

My lonely little friend
Each day comes to an end
For your peace I weep
When you clearly are not free

Every time I think of you
I mourn for what you never knew
A love so sweet a tender kiss
Alive inside with pure bliss

0012 No Need To Fear

~
Clock is ticking slow
Head is heavy low
But something inside
Won't let me hide

The night is dark and deep
In my heart a secret keeps
A spark of light so true
Feels like there's more to do

Wide awake in midnight glow
Can't let go gotta know
What my heart wants to show
Wide awake gotta go
sleep

Thoughts are running wild
In my mind a restless child
Seeking stars in the sky
Dreams that never die

In the quiet of the night
Feel the pulse of inner light
Chasing shadows in the moon
Morning won't come too soon

Wide awake in midnight glow
Can't let go gotta know
What my heart wants to show
Wide awake gotta go
sleep

0013 Gotta Go Sleep

~

No one really knows
Everything's a mystery
It all comes and goes
We live out our life's story

It don't take too much to show
That you're part of a community
Though people may come and go
Some grow to be family

To feed the fire of others
Takes away from your whole
So you have to want it
It has to feed your soul

We don't have to fear the curtain
We are all in this bind
Though everything's uncertain
It shouldn't be hard to be kind

If it is hard, keep searching
Not outside but in
No need to keep lurching
One thing ends, new begin

You are not alone
This I swear to you
We're just around the stone
We are here with you

Who are you?
Who do you choose to be?
You can change the truth
Make who you want to see

To feed the fire of others
Takes away from your whole
So you have to want it
It has to feed your soul

All too often
I'm all but blind
To things uncertain
and truths unkind

All too often
We are all blind
To truths uncertain
And our acts unkind

To feed the fire of others
Takes away from your whole
So you have to want it
It has to feed your soul

You are not alone
This I swear to you
We're just around the stone
We are here with you

0004 Around the Stone

~

Every moment matters
As every pulse ticks 
There is something wanting
Imagining its licks

Crazed, their eyes glower
These creatures are a fright 
Consumptive they devour
Before retreating to the night

Lurking closer
Cant pedal back 
And Can't move forward
When they're in your track

Can you tell what's up?
But say goodbye to the night

Goodbye to the night
I want to go to home 
Where everyone is safe
And I can be alone

Stand where we are, here
Clustered together 
Safety in packs, we hide
much in our feathers

They're getting closer 
Let us buy a snack
Give the clerk our info
 'fore we're found in a shack

0011 Danger's a fright

Rationality suits ya
Or I think it would
If you ever used it
Cause you really should

I wonder if you could
Summarize reality
But keep it to three words
And try not to just say me

We are we
Its how we're meant to be
We are we
It's how we'll always be

Thinking you are you is a
Subjective experience
Being blind to the whole
Basically delirious

If every drop in the ocean
Were alive what would she see
Bodies crushed around her
Or a clear shimmering sea

The world is so small
Compared to Deep Space
There is no greater limit
Than the human race

We are we
Its how we're meant to be
We are we
It's how we'll always be

There is no greater limit
Than the human race
There is no greater limit
Than the human race

There is no greater limit
Than the human race
There is no greater limit
Than the human race

~

0014 No Greater Limit

~

Thinking is hard
We all have to work
To be our best selves
And not go berserk

Wallow in despair
With number disrepair
Paper everywhere
Your pain is shared

We all want 
To have you informed
We want you 
To easily perform

There is no rush to speak
So say less, we implore.
Think about air taken,
Air space given says so much more

Analyze all things you hear
Don't take in other's fears
And when thinking causes stress
Put it down for now, more is less.

We all want 
To have you informed
We want you 
To easily perform

~

0015 Time To Think

~

Survived yet again
I think as sunlight fades 
Enjoying our sin
Helpless in our caves

Feeling so untrue
In pain each day 
In a world so askew
I'd rather fade away

A new day is here
Yet confused we stay 
Struggle to be clear
And break these chains away

Save me from this bind
Before I lose my mind 
Just want to breathe
Not pollute the sea

Feeling so untrue
In pain each day 
In a world so askew
I'd rather fade away

A new day is here
Yet confused we stay 
Struggle to be clear
And break these chains away

Save me from this bind
Before I lose my mind 
Just want to breathe, or not breathe,
Not pollute the sea

Earth has no blood
Just a whisper of a plea 
Humans are in need
Of a way to be free

Caged by rules set long ago
By families we do not know 
Helpless and upset
Burn away the threat

Feeling so untrue
In pain each day 
In a world so askew
I'd rather fade away

· Digital Musician · Performance Artist · Video Creator · 
~Thought of love in my heart~
Bi/NB/Poly/Agnostic
There is beauty in all. I work with AI generated music and art. We create pop, rock, punk, folk, bops, ballads, shanties, bangers, etc. Through it elements of violin, Celtic vibes, jazz, and alternative, as well as influences from electric swing, edm, shoegaze, chill ambient instrumentals, and avoiding constant drum beats.

Generating music may be the new thing, but I feel no lack of authenticity in this. It may not be just my own, but nothing exists without learning from what came before.
