Long intro, the chord progression though is real nice !  Love the melody

Magnificent-just kept replaying it 👋🔥👋

Lyrics:

Peaceful mind, calm waves
Content serenity
Seclusion suits me, no storm takes me by surprise

It’s just a small thrill when the lights go dim
But a presence lights the room
I’ll just bite my tongue, but I’ll get my fill
When a smile lights up the room (2x)

All trouble fades away when a brightness fills the room
My sorrow fades away when a light brightens the room
No grimness, spite or fear can take my lightness from the room
He smiles and teases, says: can’t take my lightness from the room (repeat ad nauseam)

Presence

Can't live by only bread, won't satisfy
Need something for my head to glorify
Need something for my heart to tenderize
And that thing you got that makes me appetize
Won't you lay it down all over me?

You cut right through the specter of my games
You come right to the center of my shame
You put cracks in my face's hollow pride
And shine a light on places I'd rather hide
Won't you lay it down all over me?

Never been a simple man
Won't you take me as I am
Never been a simple man
I know you can understand

Won't you lay it down all over me?

Lay It Down All Over Me

**The Sun Paints Red** by Laxá & Heima Kvartett is a sweeping post-rock journey that captures the stark beauty of the Icelandic landscape. Jussi Siglarson's guitar lines shimmer like distant northern lights, weaving through a dense soundscape where Bjarne Guðjohnsen's bass pulses like an underground river and Matthias Helguson's drums crash like waves on a stormy shore.

The strings, led by Lisbeth Heima and her ensemble—Sif Árnadóttir, Natasha Guðmundsdóttir, and Ída Sigurðardóttir—move between fragile whispers and powerful, cinematic peaks. Mike Taylor's keyboards add depth, filling the space between with layers that feel both expansive and grounded. The track is a journey through light and shadow, where each instrument paints a vivid scene in deep reds and golds, reflecting the raw, untamed spirit of Iceland.

THE DARK SIDE OF THE SOUL

Bang Bang REGENESIS (Remaster)

‘I Wish I Didn’t Exist’ serves as the first promo track from Kiera’s upcoming debut digital album ‘Whole Lotta Baggage’. 🧳 

Including the singles ‘Someone New’, ‘Cut Deep’, ‘Skinny’, ‘I’ll Always Be There’, & ‘Best You’ve Ever Had’, the album shares multiples stories of Kiera’s experiences so far. The album is described as a “trauma dump” and is Kiera’s way of getting a lot of weight off of her shoulders. 

‘I Wish I Didn’t Exist’ explores a much heavier rock sound than Kiera has explored before. The lyrics are quite sarcastic, dramatic, yet sad. “I’m pretty much being dramatic by saying I wish I didn’t exist, so I don’t have to deal with your issues anymore.”

Working The Edges

Early December

It would have been a real marathon to get lyrics for the entirety of the original instrumental, CXLVII for which the link is below:

https://soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/i-understood-you-to-have-no-further-use-for-me

 ....so I came up with this ...rather different compromise.

Whimsy #2's (Track XIV) instrumental gives the intro some help between :09 and :14...

Lyrics follow below:

I understood you to have no further use for me
But a day'll soon come when I cease to be

And in the vastness, the echolalia of my mind
Conjures your image, yet I'm resigned

Something tells me chimeric love
Would have fit us like a mismatched glove

Leaving me to suck hind tit
A terminal case of staircase wit
Let's put the shallow shit by the wayside shall we
This love, an ephemeral reverie
A quixotic panoply  

I understood you to have no further use for me
An evanescent spree, 
A serpentine bond, so lacunae

In life's fervid, threnody
To wander, an ephemeral ghost, in this quantum sea
Where once was you, now just me

And in the vastness, the melancholia of my soul
Reminds me of what's now beyond my control

Fate whispers to me, an oneiric love
Would have been a paradox, not a glove
