Cold Despair

Song by The Ginger Twins…
vocals/synths - Brian Beethoven…

Lyrics:
I’m past the point of a passive approach
And I’m inclined to respond to your aggressive tone
You’re aligned with the one with the smoking gun
And you try to deny you’re the abusive one
You cry alone
You’ll die alone
We’re beyond the point of a lesson to learn
And you’re trapped in the pyre that’s about to burn
You’re allowed to pray and/or apologize
But the fire prevails and it scorches lies
You cry alone
You’ll die alone
I’m past the point of a passive approach
And I’m inclined to respond to your aggressive tone
You’re resigned to pay for your sinister ways
And yet you still deny much of the things you say
You cry alone
You’ll die alone

A Passive Approach

Song by The Ginger Twins...
vocals/synths/electric typewriter - Brian Beethoven

Lyrics:
There’s a phantom limb
Shaking hands with me
And a broken clock
For eternity
Have we come this far?
Is it destiny?
Or a fate of doom that’s in front of me?
Destiny – eternity – you – me 
There’s a set of paths
Straight in front of me
And a choice to make
For eternity
Having come this far
What’s my destiny?
Is my fate defeat?
Or a victory?
Destiny – eternity – you – me

March Of Fate

Song by The Ginger Twins….
vocals/synths - Brian Beethoven….

Lyrics:
I have sacrificed
I have asked for nothing
I have seen too much
Lies have taken over you
Weakened by the weight of worry
Solitude or solitary
Blinding lies are all we’ve gotten
I remember – they’ve forgotten
Weakened by the state of hatred
Apathy becomes outdated
Blinding lies are all we’ve gotten
Took my sight, now I’ve forgotten
I am blind
I have sacrificed
I have asked for nothing
I have seen too much
Lies have taken over you
I have sacrificed
I have asked for nothing
I have seen too much
Lies have taken over you
Hidden in the waste of excess
Memories recede like progress
Blinding lies are all we’ve gotten
I am not sure cause I’ve forgotten
In the dark, the light defeated
A shining truth has now retreated
Blinding lies are all we’ve gotten
Took my sight now I’m forgotten
I am blind

Blind

Paul Amlehn - Libretto, composition, arrangement, production
Fay O'Brien - Voice
Salvador Dali - Visual art

Libretto:

"In the private, pain-filled dark
In the stillness
In the quiet
Desire
Sits on the tongue
Like a communion wafer
Like a butterfly
The beating of wings."

Like a Butterfly

Lake of Lost Souls

I made this after gazing in awe at the unbelievably stunning image the James Webb space telescope captured of the SMACS 0723 galaxy cluster—the deepest & farthest into the past humanity has ever seen. It feels unreal that we can reach back into a moment 4.6 billion years ago—when Earth was just a glint in the Milkyway’s eye—and receive its light, here, in our present day. There was something so mystifyingly interwoven and transcendent about that very thought, & that’s what I hope to convey with this piece.

4.6 Billion Years Ago…

Song by The Ginger Twins…
vocals/synths - Brian Beethoven…

Lyrics:
Alone again
No one’s waiting
No one cares
Alone again
No one worries
No one cares
Alone again
Is this living?
Is this life?
'Cause it feels like death
It feels like death
It feels like death
Alone again
No one answers
No one’s here
Gone again
No one’s coming
No one’s near
Alone again
No one’s waiting 
No one cares
It feels like death
It feels like death
It feels like death

It Feels Like Death

This is the draft of a score for a "Ciné-concert" that was unfortunately cancelled due to the "lack of preparation time" of the musicians involved. A score that was pleasant to compose despite this.

Tales Of The Sea

Song by The Ginger Twins….
vocals/synths - Brian Beethoven….

Lyrics:
Ritualistic violence
Cold despair
Was it a crime?
Or just a pagan suicide?
A suicide
Suicide pact
A pagan suicide
A suicide
Suicide pact
Ceremonial violence
Death, despair
Was it a crime?
Or just a pagan suicide?
A suicide
Suicide pact
A pagan suicide
A suicide
Suicide pact

Pagan Suicide
