Lyrics...

I built a wall
I locked the gate
Waited for time
To seal my fate
Was paralysed
Was so unsure
I felt unclean
And what is more

I looked in to
The mirror there
I fell apart
I didn't care

I hope that my body's never found
Perhaps some day
But never now
No, never now

What should I do?
Where should I go?
Why call a wind
That never blows?
I kept the peace
With the devine
I'm heading off
Which suits me fine

Now then, Now then
Dry your tears
For me my friend
Just dry your tears

This is my beginning
I'll see you at the end

I embraced
The blackest night
I wish I could
I wish I might
I dreamt of stars
That shone so bright
They still blind me
Today

I held out hands
To touch the world
It rejected me
In a ball I curled

I hope my body's never found
Perhaps some day
But never now
No, never now

The Puppeteers

This is my Beginning

THIS IS MY BEGINNING

Lyrics...

I'm just an old guy yellin' at clouds,
Hoping for some rain to fall.
I don't care if the lightnin' strikes,
I know what I'm in for.

I'm no good at being in crowds,
I'm too quick at speakin' my mind.
I'm too foolish that I won't back down,
I melt like butter on the inside. 

Got my high,
Got my buzz.
Got enough for the both of us.

Got my heart, 
Beating fast.
I hope this feeling's gonna last.

In tryin' to break the silence,
Someone please come and rattle my cage.
I'll try to make it plain and simple, 
I've still got you playin' with my brain.

I'll kick back and lie in the long grass.
I'll have a time and smoke a reefer or two,
If anyone asks for or wants me,
I'll be back by the middle of June.

Man I be chillin' 'n' killin' it good now,
Got high on life like any old guy should.

Got my high,
Got my buzz.
Got enough for the both of us.

Got my heart, 
Beating fast.
I hope this feeling's gonna last.

I'm just an old guy yellin' at clouds,
Hopin' for some rain to fall.

Yellin' at Clouds

Yellin at the Clouds

YELLIN' AT THE CLOUDS

Lyrics...

Yeah I'm lazy,
People think I'm crazy,
There's not a lot,
That I can do.

Nothin' fazed me,
When they thought that they'd play me,
Because I like,
A drink or two.

It's been a long long long,
Long long long long,
Way down.

It's been a long long long,
Long long long long,
Way down.

I took my time girl,
I had to find the right pearl,
No plastic imitation,
Would do.

I hung around here,
You should have seen me last year,
I tried to make,
Your dreams come true.

It may sound drastic,
I tried to play my last trick,
Anythin' to try and get through.

I begged and pleaded,
and in the end I conceded,
So now I raise a glass to you.

It's been a long long long,
Long long long long,
Way down.

It's been a long long long,
Long long long long,
Way down.

Your words were drippin' honey,
They were makin' no sense,
I'm just another victim of circumstance.

I opened up a bottle and out it poured,
The tears I've been cryin',
For the one I adored.

It's been a long long long,
Long long long long,
Way down.

It's been a long long long,
Long long long long,
Way down.

The Long Way Down

THE LONG WAY DOWN

Lyrics

Rain, thunder and ocean waves,
A moon so full I feel lost.
I thought of crossing to the other side,
And I didn't mind the cost.
I hope that there's somewhere out there,
It kept me awake last night,
All that have are the memories,
I swear that I'm feeling alright.

I made a decision to put somethings right,
Some others were left where they lay,
There's nothing else there but the sad vacant stare,
And I've seen enough today.
You called me a liar and I must admit,
The sense of elation as I took the hit,
Was worth it I fear,
As one single tear rolled down.

I'm mad at myself,
I know I did wrong,
I simply lost sight of,
You keeping me strong.
In spite of you needing,
To kick me when I'm down,
I kept on believing,
Anyway anyhow.
That it's all for nothing,
Because nobody cares,
But I'm open to dreaming,
Of a place over there.

OPEN TO DREAMING

Puts me in mind of when I bought my first reflector telescope.
I actually watched some kind of craft take off and head into the sky
as it slowed to a stop against the star field and faded to deep red...
then vanished.

Don't look too close...
The AI thinks you need to merge your head into the optical tube
to get the best view,
and don't be shocked that our young astronomer
only has 3 legs.

Lyrics

Got a high pain tolerance,
Even though it gets me down.
I can't get to sleep at night,
My life's being turned around.

I've counted every reason,
Why I need to carry on.
I ain't got no religion,
Or a shoulder to cry upon.

I think I'll clear my senses,
Breathing in the night times chill.
The stars that shine above me,
Sooth my mind and all my ills.

I've travelled ever distance,
I think I've paid the price.
Took the path of least resistance,
And it wasn't always nice.

I've loved and lost,
Sweet dreams desire.
I swear that I've been cursed,
Every part of me hurts.

I take my medication,
I rattle when I walk.
I live in isolation,
I hardly ever talk.

To everyone who knew me,
To anyone who cares.
I've lived a life I'm happy with,
I'm glad I paid the fare.

You know I still believe in,
The fire that burns in me.
You’ll never see it,
Till I give it you for free.

Am I happy, Am I able,
I'll flip a coin on that.
My cards are on the table,
As I lay bare the facts.

I've lived a life I'm happy with,
I'm well known for my laugh.
It's loud and its proud,
I've never doubted that.

Am I happy, Am I able,
I'll flip a coin on that.
My cards are on the table,
As I lay bare the facts.

Lyrics :
Baby no me pidas que me aparte
Yo ya te he buscado en todas partes
Solamente vengo a recordarte que estoy
Imaginandote
Una y otra vez
Que tu estas aqui conmigo
Acariciandome
No seas timido
Dejate querer
Que si dudas te prometo
Que vas a volver

No tengo miedo
Soy un kamikaze
Mi imaginacion se prende con lo que me haces
Diario yo te pienso
Te tengo en mis suenos
Eres el motor para escribir todos mis versos
No te voy a mentir te quiero todo pa mi

IMAGINANDOTE. 🎧.  feat  Ashesndreams

Souvenir ému, sensualité
Âmes enlacées, complicité
Je te dévore la nuit des mille étoiles
Mais tu m’échappes, tu mets les voiles…

UN JOUR PARFAIT

„Seed and Harvest“

Trash Truck Morning

May Peace Be With You My Sisters and Brothers Respectfully suggest use Headphones) All these began as poems or verse and a good friend David Matches gave me a guitar - as you can hear I'm totally untrained and as amateur as you can be - then Peter Rossiter of Arch Stanton told me "you have a good right hand.." so hear you go.. It's Peter doing all the work on Dust to Dust/Breathless/Pegasus and The last Unicorn which was a one take 4 track recording back before Unicorns were a 'thing'. In fact these are all one take songs. Go create! Have Faith. 💞

The DC Sound Project. Eight albums deep and still going strong. It usually starts with a good old-fashioned jam session, then somehow ends in a coffee-fuelled recording marathon. We write songs about love, politics, heartbreak, and those occasional “what the hell is wrong with the world?” moments, all brewed fresh on the Wirral. Press play… it’s music therapy with better side effects!

We’re an independent duo creating everything from raw folk ballads to gritty blues-rock. Every video is carefully crafted with free footage and, sometimes, AI-generated visuals to tell the story behind the song.
