Come Away

Moon Gazing

Longing

Light Ground  (Earthwave Cantata)
A baroque whisper turned into pulse.

Warm earth under bare feet, rising into deep EDM light.
The spoken word stays close, grounded, breathing,
while harp-shadows and soft baroque echoes weave through the beat.

Not to ascend, but to shine.
A track rooted in warmth, quiet power, and soft rebellion.

Light Ground (Earthwave Cantata)

Yamaha DX9 Synth
Yamaha RX 17 Drum machine
Korg DS8 Synth
Alesis MMT8 Sequencer 

All recorded on a Tascam PortaStudio 4 track cassette recorded.

It's a Struggle

Skid Row is one of the hardest lyrics I’ve ever written, because the story affected me so deeply. 

Skid Row is a haunting portrait of life at society’s edge. After watching a documentary about the area, it felt like a punch to the heart—tears rose at the thought that these could be our own children, our friends, or our family members. In Skid Row, people struggle with addiction, homelessness, and a constant fight for survival. Yet behind every broken moment lies a human story: lost dreams, fragile hope, and a longing for dignity. The song reflects this harsh reality with empathy, reminding us that no one chooses this life, and all deserve compassion and understanding.


LYRIC

Intro

⸻

Verse
The streets don’t sleep, they bite back twice,
Cold as steel, no paradise.
I’ve seen kings fall from their throne,
Down here, you make it on your own.

Verse

Smoke in my lungs, no place to hide,
Dreams get sold on the lower side.
You learn to crawl before you fight,
Another scar for every night.

⸻

Pre-Chorus 

The city hums, the sirens moan,
Another lost soul calls this home.

⸻

Chorus 

I’m living down on Skid Row,
Where the saints don’t dare to go.
Broken hearts and busted dreams,
Living fast, or so it seems.
Yeah, Skid Row — that’s all I know.

⸻

Verse 

The nights are long, the truth is cheap,
We trade our souls for a little sleep.
Another day, another scar,
No one cares who you really are.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I’ve seen angels lose their grace,
And sinners take their place.

⸻

Chorus

I’m living down on Skid Row,
Where the saints don’t dare to go.
Broken hearts and busted dreams,
Living fast, or so it seems.
Yeah, Skid Row — that’s all I know.

⸻

Bridge

Can’t go back, can’t start again,
The city feeds on forgotten men.
But in the dark, I find my way,
Another dawn, another day.

⸻

Final Chorus

I’m living down on Skid Row,
Where the lost ones always go.
Trading pain for one more dream,
Nothing’s ever what it seems.
Yeah, Skid Row — that’s how I roll.

Take Time

The title describes this original piano piece.  There is a sense of wandering, thinking, and dreaming.  I sit at the piano and let my emotions take me away... far away... Enjoy!

Far Away

This piece reminds me of when I was a young mother of two beautiful daughters. Taking walks with the carriage, playing at the park, reading to them at night, telling stories, making cookies, playing dolls and dress up. Ahhhh.. the sweetness of little girls!
