Dreaming of Storms

DEEP BREATHING

I wrote this song the same day I got the news from my daughter that she was pregnant and I was going to be a grandfather for the first time in my life (22 weeks ago). It's been resting until now waiting for the perfect lyrics come to me, fine tuning the mix and soundscape. Who better then Raffaella to do the vocals to my lyrics from my daughters perspective, thank you Raffaella 🫶.

Here they are, Enjoy:

Verse 1️⃣
A tiny heartbeat, a world so new,
I feel your presence, so close, so true.
Your life within me, so small, so strong,
Guides me forward when the nights feel long.

©️horus
You’ll be my light, my reason to try,
Through every question, every why.
Though I may falter, I’ll always strive,
For you, my child, my heart’s alive.

Verse 2️⃣
The days grow shorter, yet you bring me light,
A spark of hope in the quiet night.
Will I be enough to see you through?
For you, my love, there’s nothing I won’t do.

🌈 Bridge 
In every doubt, I hear you say,
"I’m here with you, we’ll find our way."
Strength I borrow from your tiny song,
For you, my child, I’ll always belong.

©️horus x2
You’ll be my light, my reason to try,
Through every question, every why.
Though I may falter, I’ll always strive,
For you, my child, my heart’s alive.

🎇 Outro
Your life reminds me, I’ll never be alone,
A love so deep, I’ve never known.
Though I may wonder if I’ll be enough,
For you, my child, I’ll always be tough.

Never Alone

A new story begins as you fly over dramatic landscape maybe in the Scottish highlands? Perhaps...relax and feel the wind in your face as the story begins. Where it will take you is unknown but it is sure to be a journey worth taking! 

After the journey across the highlands a village materialises from the fog. Its peaceful, serene and we are introduced to the village and its people as well as a special charachter whose theme you hear in this part of the piece :) 

Chaos erupts in the peaceful lakeside village as the ancient demon troll lays waste to everything in its path. The massive creature, its moss-covered, stone-like body illuminated by the fiery glow of burning houses, swings its jagged claws with terrifying force, scattering debris and terrified villagers. Its glowing red eyes burn with rage as it crushes homes underfoot, and its guttural roars echo through the valley, shaking the ground. Villagers scream and flee in panic, some attempting to defend themselves with farm tools, only to be swatted away like insects. The once-serene lake reflects the fiery destruction, while the snow-capped mountains loom in the background, silent witnesses to the carnage. 

A grim and desolate wasteland where the peaceful lakeside village once stood. The air is heavy with smoke and ash, the remains of smoldering fires casting an eerie orange glow over the shattered remnants of homes. The ground is littered with debris, broken tools, and the lifeless bodies of villagers, their expressions frozen in terror. Survivors, bloodied and weary, move among the wreckage, some desperately tending to the wounded with makeshift bandages, others kneeling beside the dead in quiet grief. The tranquil lake, now dark and reflective of the destruction, is eerily still, as if mourning the loss. The majestic mountains in the background remain untouched, contrasting starkly with the ruin below. Overhead, dark clouds loom, casting shadows over the devastated village, while an unsettling silence is broken only by the faint cries of survivors and the crackling of dying embers. Maybe there is hope yet? 

The story continues as the young hero, now transformed by grief and resolve, stands in the ruins of his village, gripping a massive sword forged in his own blazing forge. His leather apron is gone, replaced by scavenged armor pieced together from his craft and the remnants of fallen warriors. His face, streaked with soot and tears, is hardened with determination as he stares into the distant misty forest where the demon troll vanished. The sword, glowing faintly from the embers still burning along its blade, radiates a sense of purpose and destiny. Around him, the survivors watch in solemn silence, their hope resting on his shoulders. In a climactic battle deep within the misty forest, the young hero stands victorious over the slain demon troll. The massive creature lies collapsed in a heap, its moss-covered, stone-like skin cracked and oozing with an otherworldly glow. The surrounding forest, once dark and foreboding, is now illuminated by the faint light breaking through the mist, as if nature itself is celebrating the victory. In the distance, the faint outline of his ravaged village waits, a reminder of why he fought and what remains to rebuild. Cover images generated with Midjourney
