Captured the feeling off extreme anxiety an the thoughts it can produce

Anxiety

Hmmm this was inspired by, you guessed it, the trials and tribulations of LIFE!! My sink has been clogged for a while so I was inspired to write a song about it. WARNING: if no one has told you -- don't out coffee grounds down the kitchen sink :) but yeah i am really just out here trying to make it through 

Lyrics: 

my sink won't drain, it's clogged all the time
wonder if my landlord can fix it on the fly
working doubles just to make it by
nobody warns you how hard you have to try

at this life
at this life

23, don't know what's in front of me
worked so hard on a bachelors degree
just to spend my nights bartending till three
nobody warns you how hard you have to try

at this life x4
nobody warns you how hard you have to try

this life

Um trabalho que fiz há muito tempo atrás e que me surpreendeu grandemente em termos musicais.

Rever o passado e conseguir entender como evoluímos é muito importante.

Beauty And The Beast (Alan Menken) [releitura]

I'm fairly proud of the two main theme of this piece, they have grace and a simplicity that makes it very malleable and expressive. That is, I hope, well displayed through modulation I employed (G-B-D) and frequent switching from major to minor. 
I particularly liked the final bit of the exposition where I reversed the main theme, played it descending instead of ascending, which added a layer of macabre/discord displayed and emphasized through chromaticism and dissonance.
There is still a middle part mising that I may add in the coming days, (although that would transform the form of the piece, so an impromptu might not be the correct title, but we'll see).

Broken vision

Take their crown

Spy Abuse - Take Their Crown

Come now
Hear now
Another moment where I feel the wind

Run now
Walk now
Slowly by the sea, slowly by the sea

Stay now
Breathe now
Feel this quiet storm breath upon my dreams

Run now
Dream now
Slowly by the sea, slowly by the sea

Poetic moments like fireworks
Ignite the sky high
Poetic moments like fireworks
I'm lost inside your dream

Feel now
See now
Every gentle touch of this misty morning dew

Run now
Walk now
Slowly by the sea, slowly by the sea
Slowly by the sea

Poetic moments like fireworks
Ignite the sky high
Poetic moments like fireworks
I'm lost inside your dream

Poetic moments like fireworks
Ignite the sky high
Poetic moments like fireworks
I'm lost inside your dream

I'm staring at you
I'm dreaming of you
Lost in your gaze
Lost in the daze

Poetic moments like fireworks
Ignite the sky high
Poetic moments like fireworks
I'm lost inside your dream

Poetic moments like fireworks
Ignite the sky high
Poetic moments like fireworks
I'm lost inside your dream

Feel now
See now
The daze

The Daze

Demo recording of One of my favourite songs I ever wrote

you’ll be gone

Riverbed Grave

creativity is a mystery
but you're not
were gonna make history
i'm an astronaut
you're the moon
 the solar system is the plot
he put a light in all of us
but the rest of them forgot
make every day a Sunday
and write you a song
i see beauty in nature
because looking at you 
has trained my eyes
to know where it belongs
i see all the colors
you left for me to paint
i've been working in monochrome
and you're the only one that told me that's a shame
because it was you baby
only you
baby
when they see my masterpiece in color
you're gonna get the blame
you made me see colors
i sing this song in your name

Panacea

I See COLORS

Spirits of the montains

Litigant On The Loose

Lyrics

I'm so done don't wanna put my feelings on the line again
I'm so sick and tired don't think I'm ever gonna try again
Smoke a little spliff and I'll be feeling fine again
Cover up the fact that I just really wanna die

I don't know why but this shit is playing on my mind again
Put my shades on cos I will not let them see me cry again
I feel so defeated I just want my light to shine again
Sitting on my sofa on a week night doing lines again

Sitting on my sofa on a week night doing lines again
I'm so self destructive and I can't figure out why again
Total isolation, to my friends I said goodbye again
They ask me if I'm alright, I nod my head and lie again

Lines

On a stage where the light never lingers,
We wear the roles that each moment threads.
Gestures scripted by time’s woven fingers,
Steps the eye can’t catch, nor words be fed.
Masks slip from skin, shedding so light,
And silence rehearses what waits to be spoken.
In the weave that the body quietly bears,
What is shadow and will stand raw, awoken.

We are bodies in a story unbound,
Figures that dance with no destined line.
Each word draws the hour in fleeting rounds,
In a tale that time drafts, close and fine.
Between applause and scenes of fire,
Identity folds, reveals not its wire.

Beneath the veil of curtains raised,
We shift in form, leaving no trace.
What was rehearsal, now improvises the gaze,
And the role unspools, a crumpled grace.
Each step etches out what sight won’t find,
The stage calls echoes from depths untold.
Between being and acting, a tangled bind,
Where I and the other tremble, unfold.

Ancient scenes breathe once again,
The play never ceases, only renews.
And the body, in constant creation,
Draws lines that time diffuses, unglued.
Each act, a sketch torn apart,
In a dance that eyes seek and chart.
