Seasons Of Her Soul

When Two Worlds Collide

Is it too late
For me to find my way home
To many hidden roads
Between what is right and wrong

Will there be an answer to the echo when I call
If I try to reach you will you let me fall

Sometimes, I can’t feel anything at all
Most times, I feel like I just don’t belong

Are there answers to the reasons for it all
How did I get lost on roads I knew before

When two worlds collide
When two worlds collide
In my heart my mind
When two worlds collide
How can I see beyond the fray
When I borrow from tomorrow
To make it through today

Sometimes, my nerves feel shattered to the bone
Other times, when I’m with you I’m all alone

How can I see beyond these shadow of my doubts
When my heart is broken twisted inside

When two worlds collide
When two worlds collide
In my heart my mind
When two worlds collide
How can I see beyond the fray
When I borrow from tomorrow

Two Worlds Collide

I Just Can't Find My Way

Flowing melodic piece performed/recorded like a rock band, harder than soft rock but hopefully ok even for sensitive ears... ;)

Smoking Sadness

Thoughts of Failure When Alone (G. Di Nunno)

A final call takes a bow
Stuffs complaints inside a box
With false romance ripped in two
Passed on through and left some signs.

Of when this life was going well
Can't think on what must change
All that arriving soon
First: to feel the worst of this
It's setbacks, fever tone
Thoughts of failure when alone.

Feel it all awhile
All this wracking doubt
Then lift-off once more
A strengthened return.

All these ramblings kick a dead horse
Gives an aura bitter blue
No one cares to hear the struggle
Off with dark shades--different view.

Had you listened, maybe offered
Open discourse all would end
Thus the tension, face revealing
Eyes withholding, moods descend.

Those hurdles gone the race is on
Until the next to do the best
With better ways the past decays
A small demand you understand...

#4. Thoughts Of Failure When Alone

Gino Di Nunno is a 66 year old guy from Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He can't sing, but since starting writing and recording his songs in 2016, he is improving. He is obsessed with Rock Progressivo Italiano, Orchestral music (Beethoven, Mahler, Shostakovich), Jethro Tull, Mercyful Fate/King Diamond, and Philosopy. Gino started playing guitar in 1976, but two years later he suffered a left-hand accident and lost 3 and 2/3 fingers (He also started dabbling with piano in 2016, though he doesn't consider himself adept he knows enough to make it sound good). He did not start playing again (as a left-hander) until 1980, and with very long practice sessions, he was able to start a band, taking the hard road by writing original material with his brothers and a few vocalists, where they played everything from Punk, Blues, and a mix of Progressive Rock and Metal.

The band of brothers decided to end their music pursuit in the early 90's to catch up with life. Gino decided to give music another try in the early 2000's and didn't start recording and releasing music until 2016, releasing versions of albums on Soundcloud where he had no idea what he was doing; however, each album saw improvement (yes...even his vocals) by learning through trial and error experimentation. 

Gino said the best advice he ever received was when a guy told him, "if you can't sing, make sure your lyrics are good so people will focus on them instead of your singing." Gino writes deep lyrics dealing with life struggles and predicaments, yet always with a bit of hope. He prefers to write small symphonies within a song, with lots of changes, added dynamics, and a breaking away from familiar forms and structures. He realizes he is not unique in breaking new ground, and that aging and long practice sessions has given him (at times) an aching right wrist which has taken away the speed he once had, and even with his spotty vocals his only request is that you dive deep into the songs because he insists something beautiful can be discovered.
