SCENE 18: Waking up in the morning

First attempt at Norah Jones song "Staring at the Wall" with WT on drums. This song is so cool. I wanted to replicate the vaguely psychedelic sound. The producer on the original was killer.

Staring at the Wall 12-12-24 v1.4

A reimagined version of Def Leppard's iconic 80's hit.

This song tries to capture the nostalgic summer holiday feeling of days long gone...

The sun paints the sky in peach and gold,
Waves whisper secrets only shores can hold.
Sand between my toes, the breeze in my hair,
Laughter rides the wind— happiness lives here.

Seagulls write their poems in the air,
Dolphins dance where the horizon’s fair.
The ocean’s heartbeat, steady and slow,
Makes every worry melt like snow.

Sunlight stitches the earth to the sea,
And every wave sings, “You’re free, you’re free!”
Salt on my skin, my soul’s compass—true,
The world feels brighter here with you.
Let’s chase the light where the currents run,
Forever tangled with the sea and sun.

The lighthouse winks as twilight nears,
A symphony of colors smearing years.
The sea knows no end, the sky no walls—
Happiness hums in the twilight’s thrall.

Sunlight stitches the earth to the sea,
And every wave sings, “You’re free, you’re free!”
Salt on my skin, my soul’s compass—true,
The world feels brighter here with you.
Let’s chase the light where the currents run,
Forever tangled with the sea and sun.

The stars dip down to kiss the foam,
Our laughter’s the map leading us home.
No clock, no chains, just endless blue—
Happiness lives in the view of you.

So let the tides rewrite our days,
In this golden haze, we’ll always stay.
The sea’s our rhythm, the sun’s our rhyme—
Happiness isn’t borrowed, it’s ours to find.

“You’re free… You’re free…”

In the sunlight

In the quiet of the night, I hear my thoughts collide,
Echoes in the emptiness, nowhere left to hide.
The mirror shows a stranger, with shadows in their eyes,
A soul that’s lost its anchor, beneath these endless skies.

Loneliness, you’re my only friend,
A constant companion, till the very end.
I’m conscious of myself, but I don’t know who I am,
Just a fleeting shadow, trying to understand.

I walk through crowded streets, but I’m a world apart,
A puzzle with no pieces, a map without a start.
The laughter fades to silence, the colors turn to gray,
I’m searching for the meaning, but it slips away.

Loneliness, you’re my only friend,
A constant companion, till the very end.
I’m conscious of myself, but I don’t know who I am,
Just a fleeting shadow, trying to understand.

Maybe the answers lie in the silence,
In the spaces between the stars.
Maybe the truth is in the darkness,
Where the broken find who they are.

I’m learning to embrace the void, to sit with all my fears,
To find the strength within the pain, to wipe away the tears.
For in the depths of solitude, I see a flicker of light,
A spark of something beautiful, breaking through the night.

Loneliness, you’re my only friend,
But maybe you’re a teacher, helping me to mend.
I’m conscious of myself, and I’m starting to see,
That the person I’ve been searching for is me.

So I’ll sit here in the stillness, and let the silence grow,
For in the heart of loneliness, that’s where I’ll find my soul.
I’m conscious of myself, and though the road is long,
I’ll keep on walking forward, where I know I belong.

"If they don't make the music I loved anymore, I'll make it myself"

“Awakening” is a project created by an indipendent artist who shares his passion and that  collaborates with local musicians and with various worldwide web artists, joined togheter by the same huge passion for music
I love a kind of music that seems to be so far from the actual broadcasting,  so I wrote, played and produced my jobs which are closer to that sounds that I loved : melodic, pop, soul, funky or rock.... a mixing of genres that gave me the same feeling that i heard in 70’s and 80’s song and that made the story of the music and the story of my life.
Enjoy! :^)
