Walk on this earth
Like the corpse in the night
It's hard to be alive
Hard to be alive
When you die

Prophecy has reach the end
Walking with the sword in hand

Life you know
Will never be same
Call me madman
Call me insane

Life you know will end today
Final warning, end of game

Hear my voices
In the night
Darkness never
Was so bright

Found my soul
Six feet bellow
Plead forgivness
Time to go

Found my soul
Six feet bellow
Plead forgivness
Time to go
Hear my voices
In the night
Darkness never
Was so bright

Step aside, beware
It's near
Find you guilty
Now and here

Three two one start to run
Haunted by unholy one

Eliminated, mission complete
Now there's something more to eat

Target down, to the ground
Decapitated, head not found

Hear my voices
In the night
Darkness never
Was so bright

Found my soul
Six feet bellow
Plead forgivness
Time to go

Found my soul
Six feet bellow
Plead forgivness
Time to go
Hear my voices
In the night
Darkness never
Was so bright

Darkness Never Was So Bright

Thanks to everyone who came to this track. 
I want you to enjoy the citrus scent called CEDRAT.
A person thinks that there is the fragrance of the memory each.
 We can sail up the memory by a fragrance. 
It is important during the period to indulge in good memory.

花開く
薫り部屋に満ちる
夜光る
闇、暗みを増して
火を点す
手の器に受ける
扉開け
夜気に潤える影
鬼火燃え
子どもと犬が追う

Flowers bloom.
The room is filled with fragrance.
The night gleams.
The darkness increases its darkness.
Light a candle.
I cupped my hands and catch the flame.
Opened the door.
The night filled with dampness.
I am an ignis fatuum.
A child and a dog follow me.

"This opus was much less a cover of Duran Duran's original version, and much, much more a cover of The Sneaker Pimps' cover of this song."

"The Chauffeur" [a Duran Duran cover (1983)] - Michael Ash Sharbaugh [feat. Carlos Carty]

This is a song we felt compelled to learn a few years ago, and we feel the need to post it now.  There is no time like the present.  Like our other tracks, it was performed at a local low-income senior housing complex for a very forgiving audience.

Lyrics:
Now, all I have is now,  to be faithful, to be holy, and to shine, 
Lighting up the darkness, 
Right now, I really have no choice, but to voice the truth to the nations, 
A generation looking for God.

For such a time as this, I was placed upon the earth;
To hear the voice of God, and do His will, whatever it is.					
For such a time as this, for now and all the days He gives,
I am here, I am here, and I am His, for such a time as this.

You, do you ever wonder why?  Seems like the grass is always greener, 
Under everybody else's sky
But right here--right here for this time and place,
You can live a mirror of His mercy, 
A forgiven image of grace.

For such a time as this, I was placed upon the earth;
To hear the voice of God, and do His will, whatever it is.					
For such a time as this, for now and all the days He gives,
I am here, I am here, and I am His, for such a time as this.

Can't change what's happened till now, but we can change what will be,
By living in holiness, that the world, will see Jesus.
    	                    
For such a time as this, I was placed upon the earth;   
To hear the voice of God, and do His will, whatever it is.					             
For such a time as this, for now and all the days He gives,
I am here, I am here, and I am His, for such a time as this.
 For such a time as this, for now and all the days He gives,
 I am here, I am here, and I am His, for such a time as this.

FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS

SPEAKS FOR ITSELF - PRIME TYME x TOUCH x DANKE NOETIC

keeping it together

looking through a bookstore window yesterday
plenty non religious heroes on display
tying up loose ends for friends beyond the fray
offering a common source of identity
keeping it together
I’m keeping it together

importing immigrants for all the dirty work
making ends meet is more than they deserve
we’ll make our beds and sleep upon their dreams
the old gods are dead now we emulate machines
I miss th’ call, blind to it all, find myself alone
I get distracted, feelin’ strangely at home
following that river
it doesn’t really matter

convicts of old age hooked when they were young
worked away their lives into oblivion
all our fears are here wrapped up in human skin
whichever way we vote the government gets in
we’re all in this together
we're keeping it together

HELLO MY FRIENDS!  
I recommend navigating this large, chaotic cloud by tracks or playlists.
I am a Drummer/Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist/Producer. I've played in various types of bands over the years, Rock, Folk, Irish, Reggae, Jazz, Funk, Country, and Avant Garde. I'm best known for playing drums through multiple re-incarnations of Shiva's Headband, the eclectic, legendary psychedelic era band from Austin. One of my songs appears on "In the Primo of Life", and I co-wrote "Roots Rock Station" with Spencer Perskin, which first appeared on "Remember The Armadillo" and was re-released on "The Temple of Rock N Roll". I also co-produced the CD, "So You Don't Go Barefoot", by Sue Perskin of Shiva's. This cloud focuses on my songwriting. Credit is given to any and all musicians involved. Otherwise everything you hear I've done myself.
