1935. “Schultz's last words were a strange stream-of-consciousness babble spoken in his hospital bed to police officers who attempted to calm him and question him for useful information. Although the police were unable to extract anything coherent from Schultz, his rambling was fully transcribed by a police stenographer."(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_Schultz)

Je file
Dans la nuit
Je n'ai pas le temps je file
En ignorant la pluie
Comme un pinson perdu la haut
Comme un poisson remontant le ruisseau
Bravant le courant
Avançant dans le vent

Je file
Dans la vie
Je n'ai pas le temps je file  
Sans abri sans appui
Comme une roue qui tomberait à l'arrêt
Comme un fou qui croierait s'évader
Ne jamais s'arrêter
Et le mouvement d'après...

Je file
Comme dans un rêve
Tout est bien plus facile
Quand le réel s'achève
Si l'existence est un combat
Perdu d'avance et sans aucune loi
Alors j'ai choisi
La fuite à la vie

Je vais en avant
Mais sans rien devant  

Je file
Vers ce lieu
Un rendez vous d'avril
Que j aimerais si joyeux
Mais j'ai si peur : si je me trompais ?
Dans mon coeur je ne sais comment aimer
Et souffrir alors
Pour mourir encore ? 

Je file
Perturbé
Je vois des flash qui défilent
Quelque chose a changé
Les jours qui passent,  et je retrouve le goût
Les souvenirs s'enlacent et dessinent un nouveau nous
Je ne contrôle plus vraiment
Je laisse aller gaiement

Je file
Dans tes yeux
Je ne vois plus le temps qui défile
Je ne vois plus que nous deux
Dans cette âme soeur j'ai trouvé la force
Oh ta douceur reforge l'ancienne écorce
Le destin l'a voulu
Le reste est superflu

----
I run off into the night
I don't have time I run
Ignoring the rain
Like a chaffinch lost up there
Like a fish up the stream
Braving the current
Moving in the wind

I'm running through life
I have no time I run  
Homeless and unsupported
Like a wheel that falls when it stops
Like a madman who thinks he's escaping
Never stopping
And the next movement...

I run like a dream
Everything is much easier
When reality ends
If existence is a fight
Lost in advance and without any law
So I chose
To run rather than live

I go forward
But with nothing in front  

I'm running to this place
A rendezvous in April
I'd like to be so happy
But I'm so afraid : what if I'm wrong?
In my heart I don't know how to love
And suffer then
To die again ? 

I'm running disturbed
I see flashes of light going by
Something has changed
The days go by, and I find back the taste
Memories entwine and draw a new us
I'm no longer in control
I let go happily

I run into your eyes
I can't see time passing by
I see only the two of us
In this soul mate I've found strength
Oh your sweetness reforges the old bark
Fate has willed it
The rest is unnecessary

When I prepared for the green curtain, this song came to me 😊😊🐬🍉🌻🐶💖☕🌈🎵

#NewOriginalSong #goya

[Verse 1]
I love go, go, goya
I need go, go, goya
Strong against heat, weak against cold
My life depends on your heart
I love go, go, goya
I want go, go, goya
Strong against heat, weak against cold
My happiness depends on your smile

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's hot, tropical Asian genes burn
Cool with C as 2 lemons
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's bitter, tropical Asian genes burn
You can match it with meat or dried bonito flakes

[Verse 2]
I love go, go, goya
I need go, go, goya
Just wait, no, that's no good
Mix it, yes, step on forward
I love go, go, goya
I want go, go, goya
I'll find you, you're shining
Our future depends on your courage

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's hot, tropical Asian genes burn
Cool with C as 2 lemons
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's bitter, tropical Asian genes burn
You can match it with meat or dried bonito flakes

[Bridge]
Goya Chanpuru isn't the only one 
To make the most of me

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's hot, tropical Asian genes burn
Cool with C as 2 lemons
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's bitter, tropical Asian genes burn
You can match it with meat or dried bonito flakes

My wife was listening all day to me working on this song. When I added a banjo, her interest piqued, and she wrote lyrics for a country feel.

The Prescription Blues
Lyrics Veronica Krath
Music Mike Krath
Performed and Produced Mike Krath

In the morning when I rise
Gotta take these pills to feel alive
They help me get through another day

Through all my aches and all my ills
My salvation lies in a tiny pill
And my life lies on a prescription pad

Why did the Lord put me on this earth
Just to take all these pills to feel my worth
Wish I could take my body back

Oh Lord, I wish there was another way,
To make it through another day,
Then taking all these pills.

Chorus:
And in the end when I die
My hope is that I’ll find myself in paradise
With no pills and no more pain
Cause to live is Christ and to die is gain.

A New Reality of Love

you may say 
we’ve lost it all
that we never knew 
what we had
but I know it was 
just an Illusion
that is dissolving
and revealing the reality
of who we really are
This Dark Winter of the Soul
is an opportunity 
to step into our Power 
and into the Light
to plant the seeds 
of conscious living
and to grow a new 
Reality of Love

A New Reality of Love

This is my first song using only eurorack modular synth gear for all the sounds (except the beat, from a "toy" Yamaha PSS-50, & the guitar solo*).  It's also the first in decades with me doing "real" singing, haha, & whistling, wth?! ;)  It needed vocals so I made up some lyrics (below) which fit the creepy mood.  Don't worry, it's not autobiographical.

*Special thanks to Allan Abrenica for performing the guitar solo! - I composed it on a synth but it needed a real guitar.  Check him out https://soundcloud.com/lost-ph and https://soundcloud.com/ageara/tracks. Thanks as well to Steve Newland https://www.thelightafternoon.com/ for his generous assistance with noise reduction for the PSS-50 & Clint Collins https://soundcloud.com/user-836903146 for finding the perfect song image: "Hand with Reflecting Sphere" by Maurits Cornelis Escher (colorized).

Lyrics:
You, looking at me, want to know what I'm thinking
But I won't tell you oh no
Won't tell you
None of your business

Do, do you really think
There's the slightest chance
That we will ever agree on anything?

No, you're not my kind of person
No you're not my kind you see
This is just the way it is
Try not to blame it all on me

So I'm blocking your transmission?
Can you forgive this imposition
On all of your well-laid plans?
Shame on me
So inconvenient

No, you're not my kind of person
No you are not my kind you see
This is just the way it is
Try not to blame it all on me

No, you are not my kind of person
No you are not the kind I need
This is just the way it is
Try not to bleed all over, me...

This song was born when I ate frozen blueberries 🥰🤗🐬🍉🌻🐶💖☕🌈🌟🎵

#NewOriginalSong #blueberry 

[Verse 1]
My eyestrain from VDT work
I can't get up ‘cause my eyes are tired
But I can't quit YouTube
‘Cause Vocaloid is my destiny
I'm about to explode, take off this fatigue  
Astaxanthin alone is useless
I need something more
Now I may have found

[Chorus]
Oh blueberries, help me with your power
Oh, blueberries, I'm dreaming now
Oh, blueberries, wake me up refreshed
Oh, blueberries, that's all for me
Now I may have found
Blueberry time before bed
I'm feeling fine all day long
‘Cause when I wake up, I feel great 

[Verse 2]
It may be too early
The effect is undetermined
But I'm ahead, that’s me
I'll take the cuttings in December
Mix peat moss into the soil to keep it moist
10cm branches, cut diagonally
Soak it in water for a few hours, then put it in
Wait two months in half shade

[Chorus]
Oh blueberries, help me with your power
Oh, blueberries, I'm dreaming now
Oh, blueberries, wake me up refreshed
Oh, blueberries, that's all for me
Now I may have found
Blueberry time before bed
I'm feeling fine all day long
‘Cause when I wake up, I feel great 

[Bridge]
I'm about to explode, take off this fatigue  
Astaxanthin alone is useless
I need something more
Now I may have found

[Outro]
Oh blueberries, help me with your power
Oh, blueberries, I'm dreaming now
Oh, blueberries, wake me up refreshed
Oh, blueberries, that's all for me
Now I may have found
Blueberry time before bed
I'm feeling fine all day long
‘Cause when I wake up, I feel great
