In the dark of night, there's things that don't feel right.
Like a creature of the night with a healthy appetite
I saw a beautiful woman standing by the dance floor
I met her gaze she smiled at me
 I knew the rest was history as my heart beat quickly in my chest (in my chest)

The night past by in one big blur and in the morning there was no sign of her
I tried so hard to convince myself that it was only just a dream

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

As the day began to wane and darkness fell like bloody rain
I could feel a sense of foreboding in the air
I turned around and she was there
Next to me with long dark hair
Staring at me with a hungry pointy grin (hungry pointy grin)

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

Now she stops by every night and something tells me things aren’t right
Cause it’s been more than a week since I’ve seen the light of day

Now that you’ve heard my story, I hope you believe it’s true
My memory’s kind of foggy. There’s not much I can do
I’m sick of being stuck in this cold dark place
I want to feel the sun shine on my face
And I’m searching for a cure to what’s ailing me (what’s ailing me)

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

Vampire Dressed In Lace

Despite it happening over a hundred years ago, the sinking of The Titanic is a subject which continues to fascinate.  Many may believe the ship’s misfortune in striking an iceberg was the simple reason for her demise but the true story is a catalogue of human error.  Investigation of the circumstances have unearthed a plethora of  mistakes that in their own way, all contributed to the disaster.  

In 1985, a secret mission to find the wrecks of two nuclear submarines unwittingly discovered that of The Titanic and since that time, ongoing scientific expeditions have discovered that the metal structure has created a species of bacteria that will eventually consume the entire ship, recycling the nutrients into the ocean ecosystem.  You can’t fight Mother Nature.  And you can’t fight those who'll always spot a way of making huge amounts of profit, no matter the grisly events from which they evolve. 

By 1998, tickets were put on sale at $32,500 each for tourists to view the remains and since then, fewer than 250 people have visited the site.  By 2021, OceanGate, who owned the Titan submarine, were offering tours to view said remains at a cost of up to $250,000 per person.  

Whilst understanding the continued scientific interest, I do find it macabre that the graves of those killed aboard Titanic, many from poor backgrounds, should become a tourist playground for the rich and privileged. That isn't to say I wasn’t glued to the news, hoping for a positive outcome in the rescue bid for those aboard the Titan sub.  It was deeply upsetting to discover that they had perished.  Some five years before the fatal implosion, specialists had warned OceanGate that the venture could very possibly end in such a disaster, yet I very much doubt the occupants, who had paid so much, were made aware of the fact.

I wanted to write a song that reflected how little we have learned in the century or so between Titanic and Titan.  It seems that, for rich and poor alike, the arrogance of greed will always be with us. (Terry Reeves)

(For those wondering what ‘CQD’ means, it was the first signal the wireless operator aboard Titanic used to call for assistance and means “All Stations.  Distress!” Later though, he did also transmit the more universally used code, ’SOS’). 
 
Underwater tour, down in deep watery waves
Two hundred and fifty thousand to visit the graves
The ghosts of 3rd class continue to descend 
Death has no pleasure, haunting message to send

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)

Sad moments of time forgotten names of the past
Imagine the screaming ending in silent broadcast 
Locking caged doors using padlocks and chains
No consideration given to lower class remains

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)

CQD, CQD, CQD, CQD….

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)
 
The rich need to own hold what no one else has
A brief chance to look down on the poor and the sad?
Excepting the science knowing lessons to learn
But not for amusement boasting others to yearn

Can’t believe 
No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x4)

Arrogance sank ‘Titanic’ built for luxury and speed
Now laying very static on the bottom of the sea
Arrogance imploded the ‘Titan’ Carbon submarine 
Sadly reminding too much money can be obscene

Can’t believe,  No I can’t believe 
Can’t believe,  No I can’t believe it’s happened again
It’s happened again ( x12) 

Can’t believe, Can’t believe 

CQD, CQD, CQD, CQD….

Sanctuary

Left here brokenhearted
Beneath the falling rain
Can someone save me?

Across the great divide
The chasm opens wide
All seems lost

Thrown against the wall
Who will break my fall
I’m on my knees

I seek sanctuary
Shelter from the storm
Our eternal 
Home

Now I stand alone
Holding up my hands
The sky is falling

I seek sanctuary
Shelter from the storm
Our eternal 
Home 

Sanctuary!
Sanctuary!
Your kingdom’s not
Of this world

Sanctuary!
Sanctuary!
Through grace death 
holds no mastery

I seek sanctuary
Shelter from the storm
Our eternal 
Home

Sanctuary (TOTHM and Cosmic Keanu)

You can still love someone and not be loyal. Brute loyalty may be underrated.

Yeah, I’m down for appetizers
And a couple of beers
With therapists and analyzers
We’ll confront all the fears

You got through with a lot of grit
And you did it alone
I only knew a little bit
But I’m glad that it’s done

Your love is sometimes understated,
Low-intensified
Your loyalty is underrated
Yeah you’re right by my side

You were always reaching out
Yeah you’re so good at that
You’re the rain in a friendship drought
And I know where you’re at

There are things negotiated
And some others we hide
But loyalty is underrated
And you’re right by my side
Right by my side

THEY HAVE GREAT MEMORIES
OF ROCKIN' IN THE SIXTIES
LISTENIN' TO CCR, BEACH BOYS,
JAN AND DEAN AND THE BEATLES

THEY DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HIP HOP
OR TODAY'S MODERN POP
THEY LOVE CCR'S WHO'LL STOP THE RAIN
AND THE RAINS STILL COMIN' DOWN

(CHORUS)
THOSE COOL OLD GUYS
HAVE NEVER BEEN SHY
WHEN THE MUSIC'S PLAYIN'
THEY'LL BE SWAYIN'
CAUSE THEY'RE COOL OLD GUYS

YOU MAY THINK THEY'RE OLD AND CRAZY
CAUSE THEY'RE CRAZY ABOUT MUSIC
IT KEEPS THEM WRITIN' AND PLAYIN'
AND IT KEEPS THEM GOIN'

THEY WILL NEVER LET THE MUSIC DIE
WILL KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON
AND KEEP THE MUSIC FLOWIN'
CAUSE THEY'RE COOL OLD GUYS

(REPEAT CHORUS)

JULIE CAMPBELL (Lyrics) song for Julie

In a realm, of shattered dreams
A twisted fantasy, a haunting scream

I wander through the labyrinth of my mind

I ride the waves, nightmares untold
Where reality and fantasy unfold

Chasing phantoms, I can’t leave behind

The Demon lurks within my mind
The shadows whisper, cruel and unkind
I’ll face them all, leave them behind
To the land of my wildest dreams, is where I fight

My head is filled with evil lies
The darkest corner, where my soul cries
I am the dreamer, lost in his own mind

I am the dreamer lost in his own mind

The Demon lurks within my mind
The shadows whisper, cruel and unkind
I’ll face them all, leave them behind
To the land of my wildest dreams, is where I fight

The Demon lurks within my mind
The shadows whisper, cruel and unkind
I’ll face them all, leave them behind
To the land of my wildest dreams

The Demon lurks within my mind
The shadows whisper, cruel and unkind
I’ll face them all, leave them behind
To the land of my wildest dreams, is where I fight
