there's been a lot of talk of armageddon coming with the way things are I'm not ashamed to count the days
Until the world stops from turning and we all fall off, end this game and let it take all that I got
sold out the soul once in control now dead against the role I'm playing
Fire in the hole about to blow maybe then you'll know this is not nonsense I'm portraying
Fears that haunted you in real life are coming true
If I grow old, before I die at least I know I'll try to prove to you 
the audience is the judge of me
And if I die before my time there'll be no wondering why I chose to
the audience was the death of me
But you will never now what we're about is so far away from what you're thinking its so much bigger
Its where the wind comes from and why the thunder rumbles we all came in peace why do you cause such god damn trouble
dreams that come to you in real life I'd never do
Fears made up by you in real life may become true
You're the reason I must live again
You're the reason I live for real life
You're the reason I must love again
You're the reason I pretend to love real life, that's my sacrifice

Mike Molino: Piano, Vocals, lyrics;   Dave Ferrairo: Guitar, Bass, Drums

Real Life

I cannot imagine what it must be like to lose someone suddenly from a random act of violence. I wrote this song from the perspective of someone who is grieving such a loss. Having a moment of peace only to be interrupted again by the grief which turns to anger and then some resolve at the end. Unfortunately I just heard about another shooting by another scumbag stranger. God bless the victims and their families. I wish the inspiration for this song never occurred, but it has.

“There are 400 million guns in this country.”  “If guns made us safer, we’d be the safest nation in the world.” - Shannon Watts
...but not a sound from anyone but Matthew...youtu.be/cJOw0XUyTQs
mass shootings is the biggest problem in the USA, even Ozzy knows it www.yahoo.com/entertainment/ozzy…ass-171450904.html
but for some reason our political "leaders" do nothing about it and it just keeps happening.

he was the only one who had a plan
nobody else knew where to go
care without fear of popular demand
that's what a leader's made of
now we're moving backwards
i can see it coming again
look around and soon you'll find your enemy's your only friend
does anybody remember laughter
was that carefree child really me? 
did you get what you were after? 
what was that and how did I turn to me?
We'll never reach our destination without a place to start
finger on the trigger back up against the wall
go ahead and take the first shot
or realize that my agenda benefits all
every destination needs a place to start
I'm not a destination but a place to
it would be so easy just to give up now
but I try, as I bleed, I must succeed
never could've done what I did if it wasn't for the ones I did it for
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
hey mister sister why so much enraged
nobody wants to hear you...
spin like a twister pointing all this blame
when was the last time you did anything for someone else
one common goal one aspiration peace in all our hearts
we'll never reach that destination without a place to start
every destination needs a place to
every destination needs a place to start
everybody needs everybody

tired feet scuffing
all I see weighs on me catastrophically 
and the day turns to night 
then to day week month year its so clear so long as good as gone
crowded streets down in history
this can't be beat? must be fooling me
couldn't see the pavement through the crowd now an empty barren ground
who'd of thought that this would make it better's wrong as good as gone
let me take you for a ride
to forbidden places we weren't born to run and hide
vaccinate or lose your rights
block your toxic faces empty spaces locked in stasis to survive
"we are implementing a lock down for the entire global population"
"and what implications do you anticipate us facing if we do not take this drastic measure" 
"life as we know it could possibly be gone"
"With what you're suggestion we are as good as gone"
weighs on me catastrophically 
and the day turns to night
then to day week month year its so clear we are as good as gone
couldn't see the pavement through the crowd now an empty barren ground
who'd of thought that this would last forever's wrong as good as gone
let me take you for a ride to forbidden places run and hide
vaccinate or lose your rights toxic faces empty spaces locked in stasis to survive
let me take you for a ride to forbidden places we weren't born to run and hide
vaccinate or lose your rights break your stasis we weren't born to run and hide

jump in and save her
she's the one you've been searching for
every time you fell asleep wanting more
well feast your eyes on the door
under the starlit sky
the universe couldn't tell me why
every time I call and you pass me by 
my love spills all over the floor
yeah in the motor car
yeah I couldn't get that far
yeah I'll take an aeroplane 
to find you wherever you may be in the world
to find you wherever you may be
so jump in and save her
she's losing her breath in the drowning pool
even if I were there would you know what to do? 
I can't provide you with more
only takes a moment just to throw it away
after a lifetime all your searching goes to waste 
cause you think you've been hurt before 
well feast your eyes on the door
yeah in the motor car
yeah I couldn't get that far
yeah I'll take an aeroplane 
to find you wherever you may be in the world
to find you wherever you may be in the world
if I knew wherever you could be in the world
if I knew wherever you could be

It still can be done
It still can be won
I'm not the only one who believes son
Take this it was mine
for such a long time
be at your best never question your own mind
if I fall always carry this proudly I did it for you and now that they found me 
I really should go but I'm here to stay to see it all through all of the way
am I out of my head now? 
am I better off dead now? 
am I a liar trying to be who I'm not just like you
running in circles
filling in deep holes
against a tide that abides to no strongholds 
final retreat to where I can meet you 
I will survive its a lie I still need you
so truth be told
the truth is bold
my truth is sold
engrossed in gold
no one will know how far I'll go to win my last attack against the rats
am I out of my head now
am I better off dead now
am I liar trying to be who I'm not just like you
am I out of my head now
am I better off dead now
am I out of my head now
am I better off dead now
am I liar trying to believe that I'm not just like you

in late December 2015 my father-in-law was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and moved in with me, my wife and 3 children. For the next 15 months I witnessed a man fight like I've never seen a man fight before. With all odds against him, doctors telling him he had weeks to live, he pressed on and proved them wrong. I wrote this song during that time that he lived with us. I look back now and realize how much I admired his perseverance, his will to live, his belief that he would beat it "when I'm done with this cancer" he'd say. I didn't realize that this song was about that until after he passed in March of 2017. That's what I love most about writing music. We miss you Rick!

Nobody’s hanging around
Been looking all over town, for you
Nothing’s popped up on my phone
Should not have left you alone
How could I have known
That you would run away
Oh I listen to my Playlist seems so dark today wish I could make it brighter 
gonna write a happy song
Everyone’s contagious nobody can save us I can make it brighter gonna write a
happy song
Just then a knock at my door
We still haven’t found a cure, you know
But if you where one of these
You can go out to the store
This has become such a bore
I’d rather die than waste away
Oh I listen to my Playlist seems so dark today wish I could make it brighter
 gonna write a happy song
Everyone’s contagious nobody can save us I can make it brighter gonna write a happy song
And you know, it’s not as bad as what they sell us on TV
It’s big business making lies reality
They make it hard to be the best that we can be
a roller coaster fiction ride we’ve got to always question why            
spoon fed soon dead get the fuck out of my head
This has become such a bore
We can no longer ignore
Healthily wasting away
Oh I listen to my Playlist seems so dark today wish
News says everyone’s contagious nobody can save us 
Oh I listen to my Playlist seems so dark today wish I could make it brighter
 gonna write a happy song
News says everyone’s contagious nobody can save us I can make it brighter gonna write a happy song

Babe, wake up it's a beautiful day
Feel the sun bring a smile to your face
I've been alone for so long
Can't get a hold of you
Screaming but nobody's home
Calling but I'm getting nothing from you
time made us older still fight like a soldier I'm not giving up on the truth
I'm getting nothing from you
Head full of dreams we'll have all that we need I am not gonna stop until we do
wasn't thunder was a bomb just a bomb there's
No time to wonder what went wrong it went wrong move on, move on, move on move on
That wasn't thunder just a bomb just a bomb baby
No time to wonder what went wrong it went wrong move on, move on, move on move on
Babe, wake up it's a beautiful day
Feel the sun bring a smile to your face
I've been alone for so long
Can't get a hold of you
Screaming but nobody's home
Calling but I'm getting nothing from you
time made us older still fight like a soldier I'm not giving up on the truth
I'm getting nothing from you
Head full of dreams we'll have all that we need I am not gonna stop until we do
Babe, wake up it's a beautiful day
Feel the sun put a smile on your face
I've been alone so long
Can't get a hold of you
Screaming but nobody's home
Calling but I'm getting nothing from you
time made us older still fight like a soldier I'm not giving up on the truth
I'm getting nothing from you
Head full of dreams we'll have all that we need I am not gonna stop until we do
Not gonna stop until we do
Not giving up on the truth
Not gonna give up on you
Not giving up on the truth never give up on you
Original 3/3 chord progression written by Dave Ferrairo
Mike Molino vocals, piano, drums, bass, guitar, synth, lyrics 
Mike: Dave sent me this 3/3 chord progression that he came up with on acoustic guitar. I had it in my playlist for about a year. One day while sitting in my car waiting for my daughter to come out of Lacrosse practice it came on and I started singing "Calling but I'm getting nothing from you". I went home and played it on the piano. Had to add the D G C part at the end of the chorus to fit the vocal melody. And if you want to really get musician nerdy I had to go to the F# a measure early for "I've been alone for so long" for it to land on "long". I didn't want it to stay slow throughout the entire song so I added the 4/4 part after the first chorus "wasn't thunder was a bomb...." and that brought me back to the verse but more up tempo and still 4/4. I had to cut that off to get back to 3/3 chorus so I created "screaming but nobody's home" which allowed me to stop making it easy to pick up with the 3/3 chorus

Calling

...but not a sound from anyone but Matthew...https://youtu.be/cJOw0XUyTQs
mass shootings is the biggest problem in the USA, even Ozzy knows it https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/ozzy-osbourne-reveals-u-mass-171450904.html

but nothing is being done to prevent the next one, and it sadly just keeps happening. 
Lyrics: 
they can't handle it lack of self control won't get away with it
reincarnation is calling on beautiful souls must put a stop to it
if I was warrior I would've taken it out before it had the chance
scum of the earth if I could have just gotten there first their lives would still remain
"leaders" are leading us to self destruction
heating and cooling since dinosaurs fucked up the earth
I want to dance with you underneath the trees before they get blown down
I want to take you to dinner across the street before the place burns down
my motorcycle just created a cloud
look twice for me I'm swerving inside and out
my music hits the chords and says the words that are not allowed
keep moving speed is soothing
birth of the oceans deep
I can't tell you but man if you only knew
not a thing we have done or that we can do
all this change is the same it ain't nothing new
since the birth of the oceans it has been true
damn rioters of the streets should have risen for the souls of the children, but not a sound, from anyone but Matthew (https://youtu.be/cJOw0XUyTQs), oh how horrific it must have been for them
keep moving speed is soothing
birth of the oceans deep
I can't tell you but man if you only knew
not a thing we have done or that we can do
all this change is the same it ain't nothing new
since the birth of the oceans it has been true
"leaders" are leading us to self destruction
heating and cooling since birth of the oceans
"leaders" are leading us to self destruction
heating and cooling since dinosaurs fucked up the earth

Who’s losing now
Who’s passed out on the floor
So lost since we’ve been found
The love is here no more 
Dizzy over hang
The in between’s a blur
I swear I was not wrong 
The fruit we ate was pure 
She was an angel
She was an angel strangled tempted by the demons’ escape 
I can’t breathe I break with every move you make
I can’t breathe I break with every sip you take 
I can’t breathe I break each vile a mistake
I can’t breathe I break it’s all that I can take the demons escape
I know, where does time go walked for miles passed right by ohhh she was an angel 
Who’s losing now 
The love is here no more
