THE OBLIVION CRONICLES Part2

I believe the world is swinging from the start of history. It goes left and right. Today's winner may become a looser tomorrow. 

Written and performed by Kyo.

To the left, to the right,
the pendulum is swinging.
From a past that's so bright,
to a future slinging.

We don't know the reason why,
echoes of voices in fight.
Innovations push us up,
and they pull us down.

Ooo pendulum swings
Ooo see what it brings

One says live, another says die,
conflicts in their eyes.
One day laugh, next day sigh,
under the same skies.

We don't know the reason why,
voices echo but distracting.
Like distant stars ignoring 
and attracting.

Ooo pendulum swings
Ooo see what it brings

For the dance of butterflies, embracing liberal vibes,
The lion roars in guardian ways,
to keep the order of old tribes.

We don't know the reason why,
they hate each other.
But look at gravity a constant force,
an eternal orbital course.

Ooo pendulum swings
Ooo see what it brings

SUN IS LOW
-------------
Wind cries lonely 
across the snow
Sky is frozen,
sun is low
Ice cold dust dry as sand,
whip the ground upon this land

Never day, never night
All that I see... turn to white

Freezing,
time move slow,
back to fence.
I'll go where the white doves go

Winter,
please hide my way.
Cross the plain,
the hills and far away


Wolves that gathered,
have watched each move
Teeth are showing,
tails held low.
Hungry eyes with patience view,
In this domain their reign is true

Infinite march, likely in vain
Tracks cross the plain... turns to a chain

Freezing,
time move slow,
back to fence.
I'll go where the white doves go
where they go
in the night
they take flight
soaring to sky
so high and free
just like me
Always heading for their home
just like me

Sun is low

Mistress

I’ve just found that I’ve a mistress
And music is her name
Though she boards between the chords
She’s with me every day 

And she dances through my hands
Dreams with me in bed
She sings to me
Incessantly 
This mistress in my head

And she sings the songs of life to me
That only I can hear
Fragments echo furiously 
As they vanish in thin air
And she plays me like a symphony 
That only I can hear
And her whispered notes fall effortlessly 
Like snowflakes through still air

So when the coast is clear
And my wife still sleeps in bed
You know I think she’s known about us
Quite a while
Sweet mistress in my head

Then she laughs just like an orchestra 
But still let’s be discreet 
Is that a sitar that calls afar
Sweet mistress in my head

And she sings the songs of life to me 
That only I can hear 
Fragments echo defiantly 
As  they vanish in thin air 
And she plays me like a symphony 
That only I can hear
And her whispered notes fall
Effortlessly 
Like snowflakes through still air

This is an original song I recorded some years ago that describes the transition when seeing your son come of age as you (the parent) has to let go and adjust to a changed role in his life. Some regrets occur, thinking that the time to do certain things with your child has come and gone, perhaps you could/should have done more.
This was recorded back when I wrote it, so my recording techniques were not very advanced and I lost the master, left with just an MP3. I want to thank Nat Daniels and her production skills for helping make the most of improving the sound, although there was only limited opportunity to undo all its flaws. She also added some lovely piano parts to help replace many of my original xylophone parts which had faded considerably. Despite the rough quality, I hope the sentiment conveys. (note: Neddu was a nickname my son was given during his infancy which should help explain the lyrics)

Lyrics:  Written by Craig Durgy
You won’t need me as you walk out that door
These eighteen years were what a father’s for
But change is not an ending
You know that I’ll be sending my love

Can’t help but feel regrets, a childhood's gone
Lost chances sometimes hit as you move on
I guess that it’s just me though, 
It was just meant to be, so go
And I’ll watch Neddu grow

I still can see you, coming in this world
Red, blue and green, you cried, your flag unfurled
We played, explored together, 
And Mom how you upset her so
Just watching Neddu grow

That day you ran out in the pouring rain
And dashed head first to surf those flooded drains
The raging storm soon hid you
I wondered Ned where did you go

And still a glimpse of all our backyard games
Now all your friends converge, just not the same
I stand here washing dishes, a man here watching wishes blow
Away as Neddu grows

I still can see you, coming in this world
Red, blue and green, you cried, your flag unfurled
We played, explored together, 
And Mom how you upset her so
Just watching Neddu grow

Watching My Son Grow

Original tempo ~ 166 BPM

-Consider making several versions of this song reflecting several styles and genres driving home the title and what's possible when you use your head...

File Updated: Keyboard lead added and small amount of adjustment on vox. Slight  drums expansion & mix improvements

File Updated: Added rhythm guitar an octave up also and redelivered vox completely. Closer to a structure now

Lyrics

Yeah... Meet a musical bear 🐻 

(Bears do cry too when all looks lost...but we wipe our tears, get over it and fix it)


Sounds vain,
Bigging up my own brain.
Blame the world,
This status quo
The fake and fucked up reality show
I can't watch artificial grow
Without musical smells to make it go
Life is art and art is life
Fake the steak for a weak minded right
Go live your FUD
Go live in pain
I'll sing real truth!
Soul gain!
From indie to metal to rock to rhythm and blues and jazz...
Human algorithm

Yeah.. I'm liking this musical bear 🐻 😆

Make a style
Be a new way
Create a world that says new day
Create a world that honours history
Where artists spirits expand our mystery
These spirits are sad with your fovia fake
Art 'aint random when a human make!
So regurgitate your souless take
It all sounds the same this AI bake
So grab an instrument and express real heart beat
(Guitars / Samplers / Keyboards / Saxophones... all music that is expressed whether that's banging rocks or playing a harp)

FUCK AI MUSIC
Ask your soul to prove it
Chuck the lazy loser... you!
You lost!
Now hear those waves where life is not a cost...

Waaah

This artist should be celebrated. It doesn't matter if you hate metal. They are doing work for humanity and it's fucking amazing. I feel very passionate about this and thats why I have real tear writing this because I feel them and I know they feel it too... Keep it up lads and thanks for helping confirm my truth  🙌🏽 I'll be cry baby for real art haha


I'm passed worrying about offending the fake...
I'm off to rock the shit out of this one with thought! I'm able to apply that thought whatever way I like because I've practiced music for 38 years (almost EVERYDAY)... And since the fake bullshit started poisoning my world. I do it EVERYDAY without fail because this is too important a practice to watch people burn it...


I still write my lyrics with a thing called a pen. Words deserve to be made Everytime I think. They're worth at least that in my view.... and so are you...
Some people might dismiss the pen nowadays but hear my reality for a pen...

You can close the screen 🥳 You can start to dream 🥳 You can tap your soul 🥳 and put it on a page 🥳No distraction by a fake world 🥳 True love gets made...🔆


You know man.... right wing politics has become one of the most fake projections in human history given information is available for people to find the truth... or close to it... In my opinion making fake art is playing into that same ignorant psychology and mindset. Make real shit now... Sieze the moment and save your fucking souls

Allow me to help...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjAn0oGS5Bk
Polly by Nirvana... This is the first song I learned on guitar. It took me about a week. Then I moved onto Stairway to Heaven and it took me a few months. You cannot type real fucking art end of story. Get that soul into it.

AI is here yeah.. AI will likely evolve to become way more intelligent then us... But it will NEVER have the most important ingredient. SOUL!

It's the soul that we connect to. It's the soul that makes it different. So if you enjoy souless music... Then fuck you and have a wonderful souless day! My soul wishes you would change but I don't wish you well because you are creating the problem that art has to deal with. So, become the solution and make fucking real music and then you'll get all the well TBD wishes there are...

A new composition that came to me from a book I have been reding called "Man and His Symbols" by Carl Jung.

Lyrics:

Woke up with the sunrise
Chasing shadows on the wall
Time’s a thief in disguise
It laughs as we stumble and fall
We walk on these winding roads
With laughter and sorrow intertwined
Each step a fragile note
In the melody of the mind


Oh, life is a short dream my friends
Where beginning and end embrace 
We travel many roads, it seems
Sometimes ending in middle space
Once a child as we drift to that old age glow
Savor every moment and never let them go


Meeting faces like the clouds
Some linger, while others fade
We share joy, we share our doubts
In this beautiful masquerade
Long stretches of peace, oh, they come and go
Like summer storms that pass too fast,
But in their hearts, they’ll always glow
Memories of love that lasts


Oh, life is a short dream my friends
A carousel that spins so fast
Like petals caught in a stream
Moments cherished, but never to last
From a child’s wild wonder to the elder’s sigh
Will we hold each second before it says goodbye


So, take a breath and feel the breeze
Let gratitude fill your soul
Each fleeting heartbeat is key
Unlocking joys that make us whole
It's not about the years we’ve seen
But the love we’ve shared, the steps we’ve tried
Through this journey, let your heart be keen
In every heartbeat, feel the nod


Oh, life is a short dream my friends
A tapestry we weave so fine
So, laugh and love in the moonbeam
Before the stars in darkness shine
From the cradle of laughter to the whispers of night
Embrace every treasure, let it guide you to the light


Life is a short dream my friends
So, dance before dawn
Hold each moment like a seam
Before it all is gone
In the end, it’s all we had
Did you live, did you love, did you care
Life is a short dream, my friends
Life is a short dream, my friends
Life is a short dream, my friends
Life is a short dream, my friends

NEXT WE COME FOR THE CHILDREN
BUT FIRST WE SEND THE PARENTS AWAY
THIS WAS NO SNAP DECISION
THIS IS ALL PART OF OUR VISION
>
FIRST YOU TOOK AWAY OUR CHILDREN
THEN YOU TRIED TO SWALLOW US WHOLE
SENT THEM ALL AWAY TO A DISTANT COUNTRY
THAT’S WHEN WE THE PEOPLE LOST ALL SELF-CONTROL
>
EATING US AWAY EACH AND EVERY DAY
WE WANNA LASH OUT, MAKE YOU PAY
ONCE YOU’VE BROKEN THE LAW, CROSSING EVERY LINE
FIGHTING FOR OUR CHILDREN IS NO LONGER A CRIME
>
HERE TO CATCH THE DREAMERS WHO ARE DREAMING THE DREAM
FOR WE HATE HAPPY ENDINGS AND WE’RE MEANER THAN MEAN
ICE BY NAME AND VOCATION, AND ICE IN OUR BLOOD
THREAT TO NATION AND TO YOUR FREEDOM, WE ARE MISUDERSTOOD
>
WE ARE NOT HERE FOR THE PEOPLE, WE ARE NOT A FORCE FOR GOOD
WE REPRESENT THE WISHES OF A VISCIOUS REGIME
OUR GOAL TO FLOOD THE COUNTRY WITH PSYCHOTIC BIGOTRY
A RETURN TO SEGRAGATION, SOUTHERN RACIST HOSPITALITY
