Heat Burst (feat. Robert Grigg)

So death, the most terrible of evils, is nothing for us: as long as we are there it is not there, and when it is there we are no more.

A Sad Day

Lyrics

I felt my heart grow heavy,
My body growing weak,
I found a place to rest,
Where my bones could creak.
I listened to the rain,
On the old tin roof,
I missed you all my friends,
Now isn't that the truth?

I'm not the same man,
I thought I was last night, 
Now my life seems full of ghosts.
And the things that hurt the most.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes. 

I know the years that passed,
Weren't so good for me,
I wished for better times,
In your company.
I thought you always knew,
I didn't think to ask,
Now I'm here all alone,
My time is fading fast.
I have my reservations,
And sometimes I feel blue,
But I have to give up some day,
If I'm going to pull through. 
I'll face down my accuser,
My reflection in the hall. 
I don't know if it means a lot? 
Or anything at all? 

I've been away for so long,
I admit that I was wrong
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.

However far I travel,
It's never far enough. 
I sort of got lost,
In the midst of all that stuff.
In awkward conversations,
Where nothing's ever said. 
To cold nights spent alone,
Where the heart is never fed.
I felt my heart grow heavy,
My body growing weak,
I found a place to rest,
Where my bones could creak.
I listened to the rain,
On the old tin roof,
I missed you all my friends,
Now isn't that the truth?

I'm not the same man,
I thought I was last night.
Now my life seems full of ghosts,
And the things that hurt the most.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.

Lyrics

I've been waiting for the winds to change, To blow me back to shore.
I've been drifting here for several days, It makes me want her more.
You can see I broke her heart - and I know I let her down,
I was careless in the ways of love. So what do I do now?

Blue as I am I still have faith, I can turn this ship around, before it’s too late
Blue as I am I'll plead my case, before I run aground, before it’s too late

The sun and the moon shone down on me, It gave me time to think.
She's all I want, she's all I need to pull me back from the brink.
Sally said "Don't play that game!", "Your lies tore me apart".
"Why not be true with how you feel?", "Now's a good time to start".
I stood in amazement and nailed to the spot, My heartbeat started to race.
I took in the beauty that stood there before me, As she put me in my place.

Blue as I am I still have faith, I can turn this ship around, before it’s too late
Blue as I am I'll plead my case, before I run aground, before it’s too late

The sun  and the moon shone down on me, it gave  me time to think,
She's all I want, she's  all I need to pull me back from the brink.
Who am I fooling? No one but myself, I have to think this through.
What am I doing? I'm constantly screwing, everything up it's true.
If only the seconds didn't pass like hours and my mouth wasn't so damn dry.
I'd give her the reasons if I had the power, enough so I could try,

Blue as I am I still have faith, I can turn this ship around, before it’s too late
Blue as I am I'll plead my case, before I run aground, before it’s too late

Duality

The Arrival

Magdalen Green; a Victorian park area near where I lived in Dundee, Scotland once upon a long ago. It overlooks the River Tay and the scene of the 1879 Tay Rail Bridge disaster where many people lost their lives when the bridge collapsed during a storm. The bridge was later remade and still stands today.

Apart from that, Magdalen Green is a cool place to trip out ;-)

Magdalen Green
There's a place, I used to know
Torch the stick, the embers glow
Take my hand, firewalk with me
I'll stay with you, we'll feel so free

Magdalen late at night
Green around you out of sight are we

Feeling you, can I describe
Fleeting bird, of paradise
Tap the vein, go deep within
Bleed the juice, from venom skin

Magdalen, late at night
Green around you out of sight are we

Magdalen Green
400 years down by the sea
Now you're so old and so are we
You watched those souls fall in the sea
Ghosts of the morrow they will be

Loving you, you blow my mind
Lizard skin, why so unkind?
Crawling snake, from deep within
Consume the fire, that burns within
Magdalen, late at night
Green around you out of sight are we

Magdalen Green
400 years down by the sea
Now you're so old and so are we
You watched those souls fall in the sea
Ghosts of the morrow they will be

Watch those souls fall in the sea
Ghosts of morrow they shall be

Magdalen Green

This is my main theme to make music. I am a standing alone musician.
Beats of this song are my hand tapping on the body of the guitar.
