LYRICS:

Look all around
Another town
Bloodstains on the ground
It’s getting cold
They’ve gotten bold
A train without a sound 

Branches will be shaken
Dry twigs will be taken
She’s all alone
Flint and stone
The first light to be found

The New Fire is on the rise
Desire
Da da da da da

And in the dark
She finds a spark
A silent smolder starts
And in her soul
The darkest toll
Stokes her blackened heart 

No way to contain it
Brushfire up the pain
The coal-black night
Consumed by light
Sparkles into sight 

New Fire is on the rise
Desire
Da da da da da

Zhoopa zhoopa zhoopa zhoopa
Zhoopa zhoop ba ba
Zhoopa zhoopa zhoopa zhoopa
Zhoopa zhoop ba ba

New Fire
Is on the rise
Desire
Hey hey, Fire is on the rise
Desire 
Da da da da da

New Fire - Blond Weasel

My brother Christopher wrote this song.  I helped a little.  He sings, composed the lyrics and melodies, etc.  Special guest appearance by his daughter Maria on backing vox.  I did some backing vox here and there, did the final mix and master.

This song was written about the passing of our Mother not too long ago.  My Dad died a couple years before she did.

LYRICS:

Twilight in her room
Shadows surround her view
Then a sight steps into light
Brings back a flood of memories to her

She stares at his face
As he returns her gaze
He just smiles until he says
“It’s been a while, but I’m
On my way back to you”

“Pardon me if I don’t stand,” she says
“It’s been a rough year
You understand
You’ve been here before
I’d say that not a day goes by
That I don’t sigh
And wonder if I’m on my way”

“Seasons change, so do we all,”
She says
“But you look just
Bright as the day we wed”

“Once,” she says, “I made you wait ’til June”
“It’s May,” he says, holds out his hand
And she’s on her way

“Is it real or just a dream?
What I feel’s somewhere in between
And now, or so it seems
I’m on my way
On my way
Way back to you”

Then she reaches out her hand

Way Back To You (Synth Version) - Blond Weasel

LYRICS:

Staring at the darkness
Across the skylight
Anybody else might fear the moonlight
You can’t deny it
The city’s quiet

I’m porcelain now
My veins are hollow
Got to tell myself I shouldn’t follow
Made up my mind now
Leave you behind

Running from the daylight
Keeping out of sight
Hiding from the past I left behind
Chasing after midnight
Dancing through the night
Searching all the corners of my mind

Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight

Staring at the darkness
Across the skylight
Anybody else might fear the moonlight
You can’t deny it
The city’s quiet

Running from the daylight
Keeping out of sight
Hiding from the past I left behind
Chasing after midnight
Dancing through the night
Searching all the corners of my mind

Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight

Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight
Calling after midnight

Calling After Midnight

LYRICS:

Watchin' the sun go down down down
Watchin' the sun go down down down
Watchin' the sun go down down down
Sound goin' down
 
Night music oh ho woh
Night music
 
Memories of a day
Faded out and passed away
Stars are out
And here to stay
 
In the shadows I sway
And in the alleys where I pray
See me slipping away
 
Night music oh ho woh
(It's the magic that I hear at night
It's the madness that I fear at night)
Night music oh ho woh woh
(It's the magic that I hear at night
It's the madness that I fear at night)
Night music (ooh la la, ooh la la)
Night music (aaaahhh)
 
You won't see me by day
But when the moon rolls out to play
See me spinning away
 
Night music oh ho woh
Night music oh ho woh woh
Night music (ooh la la, ooh la la)
Night music (aaaahhh)

Night Music

I'm makin' this up as I go along.  Here you will find songs in various states of completion--some of them actually finished!  Most are by "Moon to Monk",  but there are tunes by "Blond Weasel" (a band I'm in with my brother Christopher).  There are several collaborations with talented people.
