An anti-apathy anthem at a time where "the man" (whichever / whoever / wherever / destination unknown) knows best and has the science to back it up to tell us what to look at and what not to see / hear.  Rise up and be inspired to feel and believe.  I like.

Superb bass, cool vocals! Really nice track! I like it!

Really inspiring! Thanks for sharing with us!

This song is meant to comfort on days of absolute hopelessness. It´s about (re)gaining inner strength, when you don´t know how to go on. In the light of current world events: Please stay safe! 
Brielle stands for diversity and tolerance. I take a firm stance against xenophobia, right-wing extremism, racism, discrimination, social injustice, against conspiracy nonsense, against Corona denial.

lyrics
Fight, you can be very strong
Fight, to arrive where you belong
Fight, it´s the only way
You´re gonna be okay

Stay focussed on your path
Cry or scream until you can laugh
Then take care of yourself again
Don´t run faster than you can

Remember the days when you figured it out
They will return and please know that you´re allowed
To feel free and happy wherever you go
There´s no rush, just trust the flow

Fight, no power over you
Fight, it´s what you got to do
Fight, and the fear will go away
Night will turn into day

Fight, let it grow in your heart
Fight, drive out the dark
Let it grow in your heart
Drive out the dark

Follow your heart

Fight

Prayer For Better Days ----

Grief is a taboo. It is not good and healthy to suppress negative feelings and experiences. But we are told to think positive by any guru. We become motivated to hide sorrow. But that will lead to instable balance sooner or later. Sometimes a human must cry. So I allow myself to stop faking thinking positive, being strong and indestructable. I admit being fragile and imperfect, a human with emotions, Feel invited to think about it and thank you for listening!

Grief

Neli CoKo - Grief

What's holding you back? Is it a glass ceiling? Is it pay inequity? Is it the racial divide? Lack of equal opportunity? Policing? The list is considerable. Choose an issue and get involved. Start in your small corner and, without meaning to sound too trite, “Be the Change...”  Now, not in some future sometime.
Though light-hearted and whimsical in appearance, the core of this muse is a deep-rooted desire for change. Now is the time? In the middle of a pandemic?  Why not?

Lyrics:
Ah- oh....Chim i chim i changa...ah-ooh..(and other representational/nonsensical utterances alluding to ideas political, social, historical, and economic - current protests for a better world etc.) 

I want to see the world as more than a place that I can endure 
A place where I can send some roots down 
I want to take a long walk off a short pier 
Enjoy the ice that I found in my beer. 
And I want to see it now, 
I want to see it now, 
I don't want to wait forever, 
I just want to see it now - 
Right now, right now, 

(Chorus) 
TAKE OFF YOUR CHAINS, I WANNA TAKE OFF YOUR CHAINS 
I WANNA TAKE THOSE CHAINS A RIGHT OFF NOW (repeat) 

Instrumental...(drums and bass...pounding the chains, struggling for freedom) 
(grunting and groaning vocalisations representing human struggles to be free of encumbrances) 

I want to see the world as more than a place that I can endure 
(I want to be set free, so free) 
A place where I can send some roots down 
I want to take a long walk off a short pier 
Enjoy the ice I found in my beer. (Moosehead beer!..Terry's fav :) 
And I want to see it now, 
(I want to be set free, right now) 
I want to see it now, 
I don't want to wait forever, 
I just want to see it now - 
Right now, right now, right now - 
(Chorus) 


If you got the chains on...go on then, give us a rattle!!!
If you haven't...then ya'll just have to listen to the rest of us :-)

IN THE RAIN (JunkHeap (c) Jul 2020 / Remixed/fixed Aug 2023)

In the rain, our arms wide to you.
In the rain, you save our souls, yes you do. 

...and the rain, it's a time for me to say 'I love you'.
with the ring, with a kiss.  My love, I hope it'll do.

Mesmerizing pitter-patter;
scent of a fresh storm; 
Delicious seeing water dripping down your form.
A cool drink from the clouds, 
nothing makes a person live their life more fully,  
like knowing how fleeting it can be. 

Break.

In the rain.
Feeling you splashing down from the heavens. 
In the rain, 
you make the clouds go away.
Kids can dance in the puddles made by you.
In the rain,
we know you are true.

Water droplets on my girlfriends lips, 
entices me to kiss them.
Wet leaves falling from trees, so precious...
...a clap of thunder after a funeral procession,
says that they'll go to heaven.

In the rain,
on a tin roof; window pane.
Hold my hand, love a rainy day.
as the drops come down so free.

In the rain...

SOUP OF THISTLES 

Returning and turning in the widening gyre 
The falconer holds out a golden ring from the tower 
Captive and burning and full of desire 
The falcon pulls feathers from her wings to count the hours

And so
Ad infinitum 
Is the crow 
Compelled to steal
And so
Ad infinitum 
Are we drawn 
Into the wheel
Into the wheel

Turning and burning in the heat, of hearth and fire 
The feathers, the letters, the fingers form a winged spire
There’s flapping and scurrying aloft up in the rafters 
Where the bats are left to read and the finger moves on higher

And so
Ad infinitum 
We forget 
Why we were singing
And so
Ad infinitum 
The choir cannot lift the ceiling
The spinning wedding ceiling
Stealing
And so
We go

Around and around  and do it over again! 
Ad infinitum
Around and around  and do it over again! 
Ad infinitum

Returning and turning in the widening gyre 
Unseen by the hawk was Icarus flying higher
Why do we love when we know it’s trespassing
A puppet heart managed by the clock – foolish arms flailing

And so
Ad infinitum 
We watch for 
Six jet planes’ trails
And so
We prepare  our soup of thistles
And we settle down to feather 
And we wonder about the weather
Listen for the 
Falcons' bells together and
Cover our eyes with leather
Oh Icarus dear boy
Waxed and waned
Ah Amelia dear heart
Tarred and feathered...

Connecting, creating and sharing with others has been quite a transformative experience and one that I trust will continue for years to come. I enjoy listening to musicians on SC, and try to leave encouraging and descriptive comments.
Who said retirement can't be fun!
