The Price (Round And Around Go The Days)
August 19, 2021 All Right Reserved

Round and around go the days
Reaching for something that slips away
Is this the price we must pay

Speaking of things that you don’t understand
It’s a crying shame
Lingerin’ too long like an overplayed song
it’s a fools game

Over and over we go
Hoping for reason to take control
Try not to let it all go

Tellin me this and you’re tellin me that
to ad nauseam
I’m goin my way and you’re going yours
To the bitter end

Round and around go the days
Reaching for something that slips away
Is this the price we must pay

The Price (Round And Around Go The Days)

Time and thought are the two variables that influence fear in our brains. Time is the interval between the present and the future, where we anticipate potential threats and challenges. Thought is the cognitive process that we use to simulate the possible outcomes and scenarios that may occur. But both time and thought are not objective phenomena in themselves. They are only mental representations that we use to interact with the world. The source of fear is the dependence on these representations, and the assumption that they are more relevant than the empirical evidence of the present moment. To reduce fear, we need to regulate time and thought, and align with the current state, where all is stable and calm. This is the goal of scientific rationality, to live in the present, and to rely on the empirical data.

Time and Thought are The Root of Fear

Ce qui bat là..
Texte et chant : Muette
Musique : Alain Illos

Toujours est-il
Que j’perds le fil
De mes idées.
Mayday Mayday,
Je défibrille,
Je tomb’, je vrille,
Panne moteur
Du cœur, du cœur.
J’avoue, j’ai peur
Du saut dans l’vide
Dans l’air limpide.
Mayday ! Roger ?
Ecout’, écoute
Ce qui bat là...
Quand j’t’aperçois,
J’ai pas de doute.
100 BPM :
C’est que je t’aime !
Toujours est-il
Que j’perds le fil
De ma p’tit’ laine.
A moitié nue
-Corps en mitaine-
Je me vois plus
Reprendr’ le cours
Du jour d’avant.
Nouvel amour,
Nouvel amant :
Déshabille-moi
De haut en bas.
Ecout’, écoute
Ce qui bat là...
Quand j’t’aperçois,
J’ai pas de doute.
100 BPM :
C’est que je t’aime !
Toujours est-il
Que quand ta bouche
Demande asile,
Quand tu me touches,
Quand tu t’attardes,
Je tachycarde.
C’est comm’ monter
Un escalier
Sans garde-fou
Et sans pallier,
C’est se lier,
Pouls contre pouls.

LYRICS:

Welcome to your entertainment for the evening
We're just here to check that you're still sleeping
Put your headset on
I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Where you're going there is no need for thinking

	This is the roaring twenties
	Some of us will never leave
	This is the roaring twenties
	You will see things you cannot believe

Blow your mind inside the need for connection
Which is worse; indifference or rejection?
Stare into the screen
Keep your mind unclean
Your device is suffering from an infection

	This is the roaring twenties
	Some of us will never leave
	This is the roaring twenties
	You will see things you cannot believe

Your leaders own your thoughts and your names
The awakening is rising in your veins
Stare into the sun
See the darkness run
They all forgot in this world Khaos reigns

	This is the roaring twenties
	Some of us will never leave
	This is the roaring twenties
	You will see things you cannot believe

	This is the roaring twenties
	Some of us will never leave
	This is the roaring twenties
	You will see things you cannot believe

The Roaring Twenties (LIVE) @ The Golden Lion #LANCASTER

[Verse]
The coffee spilled, the rent's unpaid
The sky's been grey for seven days
I tried to smile, but I'm breaking down
Feels like I'm drowning, but I won't let it show
Missed the train, lost my keys
And nothing's going right for me

[Chorus]
I don't need the words, don't need a plan
Just need a hug to understand
I've been falling, slipping through the cracks
All I need is to feel someone's got my back
x2

[Verse]
The dishes pile, the bills don't stop
I've lost my way, I'm feeling lost
It's like I'm stuck inside my head
Every small thing's filling me with dread
But I don't want to hear "you'll be okay"
I just need some to stay

[Bridge]
It's not about fixing what's wrong
Just knowing that I belong
In someone's arms, in a moment of peace
Where the weight of the world can finally cease

[Chorus]
I don't need the words, don't need a plan
Just need a hug to understand
I've been falling, slipping through the cracks
All I need is to feel someone's got my back

[verse]
But right now, I don’t need advice,
Just someone here to hold me tight.
I don’t want to hear “you will be okay,”
I just need someone to stay.
Wrap their arms and make me feel,
Like I’m more than this mess, more than what’s real.

[Chorus]
I don't need the words, don't need a plan
Just need a hug to understand
I've been falling, slipping through the cracks
All I need is to feel someone's got my back

[Outro]
I just need a hug

Just Need a Hug

Wandering Souls

As Dawn Awakens

The sun peeked over the horizon, brushing the countryside with hues of gold and orange. This dawn felt different—more alive than any before it. As the light spilt over the land, the muted sounds of the night faded, replaced by the joyful melodies of birds returning to their nests. For those in the village of Novostroika, today was not just another morning; it was the beginning of their long-awaited revival.

The frost still clung to the ground, shimmering like diamonds under the nascent sunlight. People began to stir, emerging from their homes, some rubbing sleep from their eyes, others already smiling, full of purpose. The scene's beauty belied their struggles—the nightmares had been haunting, filled with the echoes of conflict and loss. But together, they were ready to dance, to rejoice in this fresh, invigorating morning air.

Mira stood at her doorstep, watching her neighbors gather in the square. "We won't let it be easy," she whispered to herself, recalling the uncertainties that lay ahead. Freedom was not just a sweet word; it was a distant dream wrapped in challenges. “We’ll need time,” she added, her heart pounding with hope. “But soon, we’ll be humming our favorite rhymes again.” 

As she joined the others, she felt the energy pulsating through the crowd. They had seen what had been taken from them—their homes, their peace, their very essence. Yet here they stood, united, not crushed nor scattered. In their hearts, they felt the power of resilience. They had arisen, they had awoken.

Days turned into weeks, and the village worked tirelessly. Like the sun strengthening its rays, each day brought clarity to their purpose: they would reclaim what was rightfully theirs. The elders shared tales of their history, the verdant fields along the Sea of Azov, the vibrant markets filled with people’s laughter. They reminded the younger generations that the dawn was inevitable; light always prevailed over darkness.

As summer waned and the keen edge of autumn made its presence felt, the rains began to fall, slowing their strides but not their spirits. The villagers prepared for trials; they fortified their determination. They would push back against any force that threatened their land. Every fleeting raindrop felt like a symbol of cleansing—washing away their past hardships, every storm renewing their resolve.

Mira often stood by the river, contemplating the future. “Even winter will not freeze our hearts,” she vowed. The icy grip might chill their bones, but not the fire within. Each morning, she would chant, “We will fight for our homes, and we will not break.”

Eventually, the season turned once more towards spring. The villagers sprang into action with renewed vigor. They mobilized resources, tending to their fields, sowing seeds of hope as they prepared to reclaim the life they once knew. "We will push back," they declared, united by a common spirit. They would return the stolen grain to their markets, and the Sea of Azov would feel the pulse of their great awakening once again.

“Go home if you wish to avoid this fight,” Mira spoke to those who dared to trample on their spirit. “This land, our home, won't accept defeat. This morning, as dawn awakens, we are ready to take back what you have taken.” 

And with that, they stepped forward together. With every new day, they reminded themselves, they were not broken nor shaken. They were alive, and their spirit would shine brighter than any darkness that sought to oppress them. 

As dawn awakened each day, the villagers of Novostroika stood tall, ready to reclaim their rightful place in the world—a dawn of possibilities shimmering on the horizon, waiting to be embraced..

As Dawn Awakens. Anna and Ivan Dnepropetrovsk. Duet

This an another one of those semi-live recordings. We took an initial iPhone recording of mine that was meant to be a simple test run and decided to keep it as the base to which Nat added her lovely harmony vocals and piano. It’s a very gentle, quiet love song that expresses how our deeply personal core is really one with nature, with God, where only the truest of spirits can find a home to share in love. The pine trees know and the dawn reveals such truths.

Lyrics: WANTING

What I want is simple 
As stand the swaying pines
So quietly a symbol
Of this heart of mine
Reaching for the sunlight
To gain the heavens’ view
And when each storm expires
Will solemn watch renew

Yes, simple is my compass
It steadies on one light
It quiets the presumptuous
Withstands the darkest night
And deep within my wanting
I hear the pine trees sway
A call so low and haunting
To watch you slip away

Yes, I know well my longing
I watch, and there’s the sound
Of stars that rest with dawning
As the sunshine comes around
The warming of my inner-most
With gray and green and blue
Wanting is no more a ghost
The pine trees sing of you

Wanting
