Roger Waters - It's A Miracle ( Live)

So I wrote this about 39 years ago when I was 21 reason a faded memory now maybe that's why I wrote it the passage of time is so precious and rich but for us mortals it is fleeting the moments we live in are so sacred and priceless - Moody and evocative, Favourite Seasons (Volume Twenty One) captures the turning of the year with intimate detail — from browned leaves and darkening skies to the warmth of firelit rooms. It is a meditation on change, loss, and renewal, finding beauty in the melancholy of winter nights and the quiet promise that seasons, like souls, will rise again.

Seasons Story 1

A doom-folk ballad that walks hand in hand with the Grim Reaper. That Was Death is cinematic, eerie, and deeply atmospheric, blending finger-picked guitar with swelling strings and a slow, pounding rhythm that feels like a funeral march. The lyrics channel the Reaper’s voice, weaving haunting imagery with a ritual refrain that lingers long after the final whisper.

This track is as much a story as it is a song, dark, poetic, and unsettlingly beautiful. Perfect for listeners who crave music with atmosphere, weight, and a touch of the otherworldly. Lyrics inspired by Mark's long departed friend James 'Bubs' Hubbard. Sadly missed but never forgotten.

That Was Death

Never Enough

On the Porch isn’t just a record, it’s a conversation. It’s the sound of old souls and weathered hands, of stories told long after midnight under a sky full of stars. It’s music played on borrowed instruments, with creaking floorboards for percussion and a rusted steel guitar crying in the background. It’s imperfect on purpose, because so is life.

This album is about the roads that shaped us, the ones we chose and the ones that chose us. It’s about scars that never quite fade and memories that refuse to leave. It’s about love that breaks us and saves us, wars fought far from home and battles fought deep within, about grief we carry and grace we try to find along the way.

This isn’t a polished studio album meant for neon lights and perfect mixes. It’s the sound of boots on a wooden porch, of a low, raspy voice telling the truth because there’s no reason to lie anymore. It’s a celebration of the beauty in imperfection and a reminder that some of life’s greatest songs are the ones played simply, honestly, and without apology.

So pull up a chair. Pour something strong. And sit with us a while because every note, every word, and every story here was meant to be shared on the porch.

Piper in the Distance

The Quiet Between

Text:
Verse 1
I stood beside a quiet bed,
the room was breathing slow.
Machines kept time like fading drums,
the light began to go.
I saw his eyes turn soft and dull,
the spark just slipped away —
and in that silent, weightless space,
I wondered where we stray.

Chorus
Between two worlds, we drift and fade,
the heartbeat slows, the fear decays.
And maybe death’s not black or white —
just the dusk before new light.

Verse 2
The scientists say it's only brain,
the neurons dim, the fire’s gone.
But I have seen that final change —
and it felt like moving on.
No angels came, no trumpets blew,
just peace, so strange, so kind —
and I thought, if this is leaving life,
then life has done us fine.

Bridge
Breathe in the silence,
the pulse becomes a sigh.
Maybe forever’s just a moment
we can’t define.

Chorus (reprise)
Between two worlds, we drift and fade,
the heartbeat slows, the fear decays.
And maybe death’s not black or white —
just the dusk before new light.

Outro (spoken softly)
They say Death comes with a scythe…
well, tell him Python sends his regards —
and he’d better code that visit right.
