My Highlanders and the Others

Is This What You've Been Waiting For?

A haunting exploration of memory, loss, and the eternal echo of love that transcends time. This atmospheric piece weaves together delicate piano melodies, sweeping strings, and intimate vocals to create a sonic landscape where grief transforms into gentle acceptance.

The song speaks to the universal experience of carrying someone's memory through simply speaking their name. It suggests that while time may separate us from those we've lost, their essence lives on in the very syllables we once spoke with love.

Inspired by a poem of Alexander Pushkin

Say my name in silence

More Than A Memory

When I go back to that place
The first time I saw your face
You were wearing Kelly green
Color of your favorite team
We would hang out after school
Cannonballs into the pool
We were young and still had dreams
‘Til you drowned us in the stream 

It’s been so long now
I can barely recall
Sometimes I’m not sure
It happened at all
We’re so much further
than a stone’s throw
But still I wonder 
where does your mind go?

When you drive through town,
Past the old playground,
Do you take a look around?
Does it make you think of me?
When you see the swing set,
Where our souls first met,
Does it sting with regret—
‘bout setting me free?
And when you walk through the park,
do you check for our mark?
Two initials in a heart
Like a scar upon the tree
And when you see it there…
Are we more than a memory?

I saw your sister in July
Couldn’t look me in the eye
Said you bought a new house
Moved into it with your spouse
But I still see us in your car
Driving to our favorite bar
Belting every single song
Like we did all summer long

It’s been so long since
the last time we spoke
Most of the details
are clouded by smoke
I have recovered 
from the shock of the blow
But still I wonder
where does your mind go?

When you drive through town,
Past the old playground,
Do you take a look around?
Does it make you think of me?
When you see the swing set,
Where our souls first met,
Does it sting with regret—
‘bout setting me free?
And when you walk through the park,
do you check for our mark?
Carved so deep into the bark
Like a scar upon the tree
And when you see it there…
Are we more than a memory?

I don’t expect you to show up on a white horse
Our story’s over, it’s run the whole course 
But I’ve always questioned, if you felt any remorse about us
I know you must…

When you drive through town,
Past the old playground,
And you take a look around
I know it makes you think of me
When you see the swing set,
Where our souls first met,
Bet the sting of regret
Is as painful as can be
And when you walk through the park,
and you check for our mark
B and K inside a heart
like a scar upon the tree
And when you see it there…
We’re more than a memory

When you see it there…
We’re more than a memory

There’s a monster beneath the bed
And it runs and it comes right out of my head

“You are weak" — so take a week
I could never tell...
'Til I walked straight out of that bed
Took my time, some words were said
Follow me, follow me

[Verse 2]
There’s a wonder beneath the skin
It’s wild, & it slips right out of my hands

“Come to me, while you are weak”
I’ll never tell...
'Til I walked straight out of that hell
It took some time, minced words as well
Ba dah dee eh, bah da de…dum

Dumb!

Chorus

Bah da da da da da dah dum

There’s a way, there’s a way
You can help everyone

Right in the heat of the sun
In the heat of the sun
There’s a lie where the pulse says it rises and falls

Right through the heat of the sun
Yeah, the heat of the sun...

Verse 3

There’s a silence beneath the scream

And it hums like a thread through every dream

“You are me” — it whispered deep

I could never tell...

'Til I met it under the bed

Spoke its name in words unsaid

Sing with me, sing with me


Heat of the Sun

The road is cracked the signs are gone
I keep on walking though I’m all alone
A shadow whispers where do you belong
But the answer’s stuck in a broken song

I turn the key but the lock won’t spin
I knock and knock but no one lets me in

With a gentle, repetitive melody and a steady beat, it provides something tangible to latch onto.  It is meant to feel safe, familiar, and emotionally validating— is meant to help reconnect with themselves and their surroundings without becoming overwhelmed. The calming tempo helps to support natural breathing and heartbeat rhythms, reinforcing presence and inviting a gentle return back to the here and now.

[Intro]
[vocal harmonies looped around the word barefoot]
I stand barefoot where the wind knows my secrets
and no one’s asking me to explain myself

[Verse 1]
I walk through rows of sunflowers
with my silence intact
they don’t talk
but they’re listening
I don’t have to say what’s on my mind
it’s okay to be quiet

[Chorus]
This is where I can breathe
where I let things go
the wind takes some of it with it
and I don’t have to be brave
It’s calm here
I can end and begin again

[Verse 2]
The soil breathes beneath my feet
tells me—stay you’re enough
even the sun dips down gently
I’ve learned that quiet is tough love
I’m just a small petal falling 
but even the small matter here
I let myself slow down
(and it feels good)

[Chorus]
This is where I can breathe
where I let things go
the wind takes some of it with it
and I don’t have to be brave
It’s calm here
I can end and begin again

[Bridge]
I could say something
but I don’t
the silence is already speaking for me

[Final Chorus]
This is where I come back to myself
where I let things go
the wind takes some of it with it
and I don’t need to pretend
I lose myself to find again
and there’s no need to confess
and here in the silence 
I finally feel at home

Between the Worlds

The Circle

I see a shadow when you smile
It lingers there
It stays awhile
Behind the mask
A secret's curled
A hidden map to your shattered world

Behind the mask
What do you hide
A stormy sea or a quiet tide
Is it fear
Is it fire
Is it fear
Is it fire
Is it pain inside
Behind the mask
Where do you confide

Behind the Mask .mp3

What is a man
Is it the strength in his hand
Or the way he takes a stand when no one understands
Is it the fire in his eyes
The thunder in his stride
Or the tears that he hides
Afraid to let them collide

It’s not the weight he can lift
It’s the love he can give

A man is courage
A man is heart
A man is knowing when to fall apart
A man is empathy
Not just what you see
A man is the fight to simply be free

What’s in a man .wav

Best of Me is a rock-driven anthem written with raw emotion and grit. It tells the story of giving your all to someone who took you for granted. With powerful guitar riffs and intense vocals, the song blends anger and vulnerability, capturing the fight to reclaim strength after being broken.

Best of me

Feet pounding the mossy ground 
Hills echoing the bagpipe sound 
The air is wild the clouds are thin 
Kilts flying in the wind  

Kilts flying high Let 'em soar 
Freedom's a dance Not a chore 
Round and round we spin again 
Kilts flying in the wind

Kilts flying .mp3

UNHOLY MARY by Nova J

[Spoken Intro]
I’ll give you until the count of five.
Then I do it.
5… 4… 3… 2… 1…

[Verse 1]
You cry wolf in the courthouse, you cry wolf in the pews
Every man who gets close leaves branded, accused
Unholy Mary, queen of shadows and schemes
You built your religion on your children’s screams

[Pre-Chorus]
Every story you spin gets heavier still
Like snow piling high on that house on the hill
(Unholy Mary… what happened to you?)

[Verse 2]
You lock all the windows, you deadbolt the door
Homeschool their silence, they don’t dream anymore
You search for new labels, new ways to get paid
But the mirror reflects every debt you’ve made

[Pre-Chorus]
Every promise you broke turned colder with time
Your letters to God just excuses in rhyme
(Unholy Mary… what happened to you?)

[Chorus]
Unholy Mary, where do you hide?
(Unholy Mary… where do you hide?)
Your children are shadows, they stand by your side
(Unholy Mary…)
The mirror won’t answer, it just looks right through
 (Unholy Mary… what happened to you?)
Unholy Mary, what happened to you?
(Unholy Mary… what happened to you?!)

[Bridge]
Vanity binds you, your mercy decays
Loneliness lingers, you’re lost in the maze
Your children bear burdens they never should know
You pray for redemption, but the mercy won’t show

[Outro]
Snow falling steady on your backyard gate
The candles burn out, but you’re still awake
It’s your fate. Oh Mary. It’s your fate.
Your fate. Your fate.

[Instrumental Close]

Unholy Mary

Praying on Starmilk Way

(Verse 1)
I'm going to hide inside myself, I'm going to stay away, I'm going to surround myself with nothingness because life is better this way, with no false hopes or expectations of what might be.

(Chorus)
It's just me against this wretched world, it's the only way I can truly be free.

(Verse 2)
In this secret place I'm hidden from their eyes, impervious to the condemnation from all the egos and pride, the slings and arrows of the lying one can never make it through, but it's the ones I'm supposed to trust who leave me empty and feeling misused.

(Chorus)
It's just me against this wretched world, it's the only way I can truly be free.

(Bridge)
Am I to live a life filled with sorrow and regret because I let them in, or should I just return to my comfortable place never to return again?

(Outro)
It's never been a question about what, why or when... it's only a statement of fact when I say I don't want this for my life again.
