Free Rolling Drifter With Mario Mix 4 With Bgv.bnce Copy

Refugee CT Sess Bnce #2 - Mstered

Heres a song i wrote called alone hope you like it

alone

This original song is about loss and how that loss, or tragedy can change your perception of a particular location. It reminds me of a Nordic Noir set to music.
Because of it's subject matter and slow and repetitive structure, it lends itself to a moody TV theme.
Written and performed by myself and produced by Geoff Sandiford who also plays bass.

The Lost

The Same

Free Again
Words and Music by Linda Cullum and June Biancalana

V1
I don’t want to let you go
To a place that I don’t know
But it’s time for you to venture
On a new adventure

V2
I’m not sure how I’ll survive
Without you by my side
We’ve been together so long
I can’t imagine not hearing your song

Chorus
But after the rain comes the sun
After the storm comes the calm
When I release this pain
Of a love torn away
I’ll be free again

V3
I know it's time to let you go
Off into the great unknown
We’ve come to a point that so many do
We must find the courage and bid adieu

V4
Now I reach out and you’re not there
My hollow arms hug empty air
This up and down feeling inside
Cuts like a knife and then subsides

Chorus:
After the after rain comes the sun
After the storm comes the calm
When I release this pain
Of a love torn away
I’ll be free 

Bridge
I’m going to step outside into a hard driving rain
Tears and drops one of the same
Swing my hollow arms fast around
Drill all the sadness into the ground

Chorus
After the rain comes the sun
After the storm comes the calm
When I release this pain
Of a love torn away
I’ll be free again

I’ll be be free again
I’ll be be free again
I’ll be be free again
I’ll be be free again
Free again

Free Again

Somebody Once-

"Vacancy" is a haunting acoustic ballad that delves into the profound emptiness of the human experience. With minimalist instrumentation and a stark lyrical narrative, the song captures the overwhelming sense of isolation that fills every corner of the protagonist’s world. The lyrics paint a bleak picture of silent streets, fading memories, and a desperate search for something tangible in a landscape that offers no solace. The slow, melancholy guitar melody accentuates the haunting atmosphere, with each note echoing the frightening emptiness that surrounds the singer.

The song’s emotional core lies in its simplicity, focusing on the raw, visceral sensation of loneliness and loss. As the chorus builds, the intensity of the emptiness becomes palpable, creating a tension between the desire for connection and the reality of solitude. The bridge offers a quiet reflection, almost a spoken word moment, where the protagonist accepts the void yet remains adrift in it. “Vacancy” is a powerful exploration of emotional desolation, where the absence of sound and presence speaks louder than anything else.

Vacancy

An positive philosophy of sorts...

SOMETHIN' TO BELIEVE IN

Out of the darkness into the blue light
Duckin' the social junk you learned in school
Look in the mirror
Can't find an answer
It leaves you dry without a clue
Well, it don't take much for the spirit to give out
Can't keep on living this way

We all need somethin' to believe in
Gotta have truth in our lives
We all need somethin' to believe in
Gotta have truth in our lives
We all need somethin' to believe in
Savor the moment when ya turn out the light

Doin' the day job
Too many nightmares
You're dreamin' about a love you can't deny
Well, nothin' comes easy when you're a stranger
A stranger to who you are inside
Well, it don't take much for the spirit to give out
Hard to keep livin' this way

We all need somethin' to believe in
Gotta have truth in our lives
We all need somethin' to believe in
Savor the moment when ya turn out the light

We all need somethin' to believe in
Savor the moment when ya turn out the light
Gotta get us to the other side

All the dreams that we put on display
Sometimes lose their meaning
But the dreams that we hold in our hearts
Are the ones that keep us around

Well, we all need somethin' to believe in
Gotta have truth in our lives
We all need somethin' to believe in
Savor the moment when ya turn out the light
When ya turn out the light

We all need somethin' to believe in
Gotta have truth in our lives
We all need somethin' to believe in
Savor the moment when ya turn out the light
Gotta get us to the other side
