AB Playlist 056 Part 1

Written in March 2021, this song is about recognizing that sometimes the best of times are unplanned. The good and the bad hits you any time, so when times are good, appreciate it.

This song was written on piano but with more emphasis on guitar that other songs of mine. Recorded on a Fender Jaguar, Fender Jazz Bass, Yamaha Motif6, and Baldwin grand piano.

'Mistakes' is nothing more or less than a simple love song. Melodic and a little bit edgy, just like Cindy and me. Alt rock meets dream pop. Thank you everyone for listening and supporting Para Lia!

lyrics:

i found you waiting in the backyard
of my selfmade house of cards
you are like the sunrise that breaks the dark

all my mistakes led me to you
we are riding with the past into something new

my broken road is filled with ghosts
and some of my steps left potholes in my soul
it's a fine line between love and pain
you're touching my mind, you keep me sane

all my mistakes led me to you
we are riding with the past into something new
it's long overdue

Mon miroir

Plane lisse surface
sans couleur rien ne t'efface
impassible indifférent
tu as le temps tu m'attends

tes airs profonds illusoirs
troisième dimension de foire
ne sont que des reflets sans vie
des jeux de lumière d'asphyxie.

Mon ami du soir mon miroir
de mon minois momie noire
le reflet me jette à la face
sans tact restant de glace.

Mon ami du soir mon miroir
de mon minois momie noire
le reflet me jette à la face
sans tact restant de glace.

Porte en trompe-l'œil ouverte
sur les images à toi offertes
triste copieur de génie
œil damné frappé d'insomnies

sur tes "pas laid" le goût du luxe
sur ta peau ces mots : "j'accuse
sans excuse tes traits disgracieux
tes rides tes cernes sous les yeux.

Mon ami du soir mon miroir
de mon minois momie noire
le reflet me jette à la face
sans tact restant de glace.

Mon ami noir toi mon miroir
condamne mes masques dérisoires
aux éclats se rit de moi
cruement sans émoi.

Mon ennemi du soir mon miroir
ton juste ton unique regard
immuable ni beau ni laid
me dit : "tes rêves de beau renie-les !".

The Show........

As I get older -  try to stay sober - just long enough to realize it ain't over but it's getting colder - my knees getting weaker - I'm learning to stand all over again.
Seems that I've gone through - so many changes - what's left to conquer - am i getting so bored that i can't concentrate on the main goal - which nowadays is completely blurred
So leave me be with bottles and cans just let me reflect on the strange man that i am - we feel the conjecture in our tones - we're avoiding what we already know - If you look deeper beneath the layers of film in my eyes as they thicken every time i sip a sorrow away - it get's harder each day - putting on the show
My eyes will stay focused mainly on the next task – just as long as up my sleeve I find my flask – and while I’m submerged in all these urges and it’s hard to remember just where I am.
Still I’m remiss to ask you just what I was saying cause that’s all my mind will allow me to handle at this time I’m fading slowly degrading – I fell off earth long ago  –So leave me be with bottles and cans just let me reflect on the strange man that  i am - we feel the conjecture in our tones - we're avoiding what we already know - If you look deeper beneath the layers of film in my eyes as they thicken every time i sip a sorrow away - it get's harder each day - putting on the show
Please breathe your light into my aura its black and it’s purple – it’s out of control the colors are scattered and all that has mattered through all these years has already been
taken away in the blink of just one eye – don’t be judging - the colors keep smudging – and you keep begrudging me cause I’m fading – it’s not understated when you say I’m a mess.
So leave me be with bottles and cans just let me reflect on the strange man that i am - we feel the conjecture in our tones - we're avoiding what we already know - If you look deeper beneath the layers of film in my eyes as they thicken every time i sip a sorrow away - it get's harder each day - putting on the show

Lyrics

Verse 1
The demons inside your head, they're on fire
It's making it hard to fake your smile
you're cool on love, it's breaking you down
it's a simple life, in this heartbreak town 

Chorus
You fake a smile at me - I don't mind
Come see the world with me - it's our time
We'll find a cure for you - it's drive time

Verse 2
You're stronger than steel, you gotta heart of gold
The cells in your blood won't leave you alone
It's a rare disease, one step at a time
It's making it hard to fake your smile

Chorus
You fake a smile at me - I don't mind
Come see the world with me - it's our time
We'll find a cure for you - it's drive time

Bridge/Verse 3

Chorus
You fake a smile at me - I don't mind
Come see the world with me - it's our time
We'll find a cure for you - it's drive time
