"Distanced" is a reflective ballad that captures the beauty and heartache of a long-distance relationship, drawing parallels with the infinite expanses of space, and the need for connection stifled by the realities of time and space. With spacey guitar tones and melancholic vocals, The Day Afters blend wistful lyrics with a modern indie sound. Perfect for late-night reflection.

Lyrics:
It’s the Distance - and the time we squandered, the days we found were- quickened.
A rhythm - as we break in two again, smash into ourselves - listen….   

If you want it - you get it - you get you let it go
When  you see it - it’s never what you’re looking for
You can dream - for more and more
What’s real is here, you feel it near - that’s yours

Absence - makes the heart grow fonder But my thoughts still wander - still with you
This system - demands you follow, Makes you swallow - puts us in this queue

If want it - you get it - you get you let it go
When you see it - it’s never what you’re looking for
You can dream - for more and more
What’s real is here, you feel it near - that’s yours

I Miss you - the earth is harder, the sun feels farther than it used to - and we’re just passing through

Trying to read you - I can't tell
Trying to reach you - No one’s there

Cast of characters:
Tea R. Sea @tea_are_sea -- Terry – Synthesizers, beats, composition
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez– Fender Stratocaster electric guitar, mix, and production
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson Top T Classic
 electric wah guitar
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 electric piano, tambourine, and triangle
K2 and the Three [and the Four] -- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1– Custom five-string fretless bass

This song started as a basic, yet melodically very strong composition by Terry involving him playing a synthesizer over a beat he created. He first shared it with Stephen, as they are regular collaborators in their project, Texas Tea, which are worth checking out on both of their pages, as well. Stephen then turned it over the the Eclectic Collective to work our magic on it.
  Josh was first up to the plate with this one, adding his deep, five string fretless bass to Terry's rudimentary beat. Ken was next up, however, adding the driving drum beat you hear, for which he used Terry's beat as a template and augmented a full kit sound to it. Stephen followed Ken, adding his striking wah guitar part to the whole thing. Tez was up soon after with his searing guitar soloing towards the end. Last, but certainly not least, JJ added the soulful electric piano you hear giving it a funk throughout, as well as the tambourine and the cool triangle dings. 
  Now that it was in the bag, we decided to ask Stephen to produce and mix it for us, which he did in his typical expert fashion, as well as the doing the mastering, too. However, Tez also did a production and mix that some of us are choosing to use instead, as a matter of taste, not quality. That is the one you'll find on my page.
  This is our holiday offering to all our fans, friends, colleagues, and peers. While it's not particularly a holiday song, it's a good display of where we are musically, and shows some of the flavour we want to add in the new year. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. Happy holidays to you, and many happy returns!

Au-dessus du volcan
Tout fout le camp
Tout fout le camp

Y’a pas qu’au Vatican
Qu’il y a des sièges vacants
Qu’tout fout le camp

Moi j’étais pratiquant
Peut-être un peu trop croyant
Sûr un peu trop confiant
Quand tu as foutu le camp
Tout fout le camp

C’est pas que j'm'y attendais
Parce que j’m’y attendais pas
Moi à nous j’y croyais
Toi visiblement pas

Quand on n’a pas la foi
C’est souvent qu’ça dure pas
J’peux pas dire qu’j’t’en veux pas
Penché au-dessus de l’Etna

Au-dessus du volcan
Tout fout le camp
Tout fout le camp

Y’a pas qu’au Vatican
Qu’il y a des remplaçants
Qu’tout fout le camp

Moi j’étais pratiquant
Peut-être un peu non voyant
J’croyais qu’on avait le temps
Quand tu as foutu le camp
Tout fout le camp

Maint’nant j’sais plus quoi faire
J’ai plus aucun repère
J’t’imagine en enfer
Avec moi sous les fers
Mais c’est toi Lucifer

Qu’est-ce qu’il fout ce volcan
Parait qu’il est vivant
Ça serait bien qu’il explose
Qu’j’puisse passer à autre chose

Vedran - Echoes Through The Dreamscape

Story time. February seems to bring out my dark side.  Here we have a very bad man about to have his sentence fulfilled. In it, he will receive his final "song". The same "song" that his victims received. 

Lyrics;
Piper
I pay the Devil's dues
This Piper's lost the tune
Like the many souls who sang my song
I leave this world too soon

I'm not seeking mercy
Not asking to be saved
I'm not looking for forgiveness
For deeds deemed depraved

The doctor stands beside me
His hand rests on my head
Strapped in, I can not move
As I lay upon the bed

The singers sang the Piper's song
And I set those voices free
I was writing songs days one and two
And I played them on day three

Now bring your music doctor
I look forward to your tune
Inject me with a melody
'til my beating heart's consumed
Not quite a requiem
But I accept this honorarium
For the music that I gave them
The music moving through me
From my shoulders to my hands
I feel the final chorus
Banishing the damned

Darkness overcomes me
I receive the Devil's kiss
No sight or sound or focus
As I sink through the abyss

I pay the Devil's dues
This Piper's lost his song
Yet beating in the darkest hearts
The Piper's music carries on

The Piper

Keeping with the Valentine's Day theme of love, here's an oldie but goldie I wrote this back in 1998, can you believe it, It's another song about my dream girl that I wouldn't meet for many year afterwards. I was divorced for about 2 years and pretty much feeling abandoned and lonely. I remember wanting to write a song in the same vein as "And I Love Her" by The Beatles. A very acoustic number with an accordion playing in the background, you know, very romantic like something you might hear in a Paris cafe! This was one of the first songs I did with Charlie, it wasn't recorded too well since I had an old Tascam 8-track analog recorder and it's distorted quite a bit but I think the melody and lyrics still hold up. (Mastering didn't help this song at all, sorry!) I don't know, let me know what you think in the comments. I've always liked the first line about wrapping myself inside her smile. I produced the video a few months ago for this Valentine's Day. I enjoyed putting it together and added like 10 quick snap shots of beautiful women taking selfies at the end of the video. I hope you guys enjoy it and Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Ciao! 😎✌🏼

“HOW I LOVE HER”

IT’S JUST SOMETHING IN THE WAY SHE WEARS A SMILE,   
THAT MAKES ME WANT TO WRAP MYSELF INSIDE IT,   
NO MATTER HOW HARD I MIGHT TRY TO HIDE IT,   
HOW I LOVE HER,             
     
SIMPLY A SUBTLE SHIFT OF HER BEAUTIFUL EYES, 
MELTS AWAY ALL THE BITTERNESS WITHIN ME,   
AND EVERY TIME SHE TOUCHES ME, SHE WINS ME,  
HOW I LOVE HER,

I ADORE HER EVERY CULTIVATED GLANCE,       
AND EACH MOVEMENT THAT SHE MAKES IS LIKE A DANCE,
THERE’S NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER,       
I CAN NEVER SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF HER,       
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE, MY EVERYTHING,       
AND WITH EACH AND EVERY LOOK SHE MAKES MY SENSES SING,
     
EVERY TIME SHE KISSES ME, I’M IN HEAVEN,   
WHEN SHE’S IN MY ARMS MY WORRIES DISAPPEAR,          
MY LOVE FOR HER GROWS STRONGER WITH EACH YEAR,   
HOW I LOVE HER,      
          
I ADORE HER EVERY CULTIVATED GLANCE,        
AND EACH MOVEMENT THAT SHE MAKES IS LIKE A DANCE,
THERE’S NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER,         
I CAN NEVER SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF HER,       
SHE’S MY DREAM COME TRUE, MY EVERYTHING,       
AND WITH EACH AND EVERY LOOK SHE MAKES MY SENSES SING,
     
EVERY TIME SHE KISSES ME, I’M IN HEAVEN,    
WHEN SHE’S IN MY ARMS MY WORRIES DISAPPEAR,           
MY LOVE FOR HER GROWS STRONGER WITH EACH YEAR,  
HOW I LOVE HER,   
HOW I LOVE HER,   
HOW I LOVE HER.

UM TEMPO PARA TUDO
Ec 3:1-8,11

Pra tudo tem o seu tempo 
E sob o céu, todo plano tem seu tempo, tem seu tempo
Nascer e morrer, plantar e arrancar
O que plantou-se, pra tudo tem seu tempo certo,
Tempo certo;

Tudo belo, em Seu tempo, Ele fez!
Também em seus corações Ele pôs
A eternidade, sem que estes possam descobrir
O que Deus fez desde o princípio ‘té o fim.

Há tempo para matar e curar;
Pra destruir e pra construir;
Há tempo para chorar e sorrir
Para o luto e pra dançar;
Há tempo para lançar as pedras 
E há tempo para juntar as pedras;
E até um tempo pra abraçar e afastar-se.


Há tempo para buscar e perder;
Há tempo para rasgar e coser;
Há tempo pra se desfazer, guardar 
Falar e se calar;
Para amar e pra aborrecer;
Num tempo há guerra e em outro há paz.
Pra tudo, um tempo tem!

No estâ todavía en Español….
solo es una Traducción Provicional … 


1-Para todo hay un tiempo, y un tiempo para todo lo que se hace bajo el cielo.
Tiempo de nacer y tiempo de morir;
tiempo de plantar y tiempo de arrancar lo plantado;
(lo plantado).

Él hizo todo hermoso a su tiempo; también puso eternidad en sus corazones,
pero para que el hombre no descubra lo que Dios ha hecho desde el principio hasta el fin.

2-Tiempo de matar y tiempo de sanar;
tiempo de derribar y tiempo de edificar;
tiempo de llorar y tiempo de reír;
tiempo de lamentarse y tiempo de bailar;
tiempo de esparcir piedras y tiempo de juntar piedras;
tiempo de abrazar y tiempo de abstenerse de abrazar;

3-tiempo de buscar y tiempo de perder. Tiempo de guardar, y tiempo de desechar;
tiempo de romper, y tiempo de coser;
tiempo de callar, y tiempo de hablar;
tiempo de amar, y tiempo de odiar;
tiempo de guerra, y tiempo de paz.
(Un tiempo para todo)

Eclesiastés 3:1-8,11


🌹🎻🌺🎶🌱🌷🌸☘️🌹🎻🌺🎶 


For everything there is a season,
And a time for every purpose 
under heaven 
(under heaven)
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up 
what is planted; 
(what is planted)

	He has made everything 
	beautiful
	in its own time; also He 
	has put
	eternity in their heart,
	yet so that man does not
	find out what God
	has done from the 
	beginning
	to the end. 

A time to kill, and a time to heal; 
A time to tear down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; 
A time to mourn, and a time to dance; 
A time to cast away stones,
and a time to gather stones together; 
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain
from embracing; 

A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to be silent, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; 
A time for war, and a time for peace.
(A time for everything)

Ecc. 3:1-8,11

**I NEVER USE A.I. IN ANY OF MY SONGS OR VIDEOS!** Hi everybody, my name is Jim and I’m a songwriter, I've written over 300 songs, I play guitar, bass, piano, and am an okay lyricist.  I play all types of music and have my own recording studio.  I use no A.I. or DAW or any computers to make my songs or my videos, all the instruments are played by me live on a multitrack studio recorder and Charlie, my vocalist, sings most of my songs and also plays the Harmonica on several tracks. I use video clips from Motion Array or Pexals or Pixabay for my videos. I'm not a pro or a great musician but I do what I can with the tools that I have! I belong to the "Keep Humans In Music Movement" (KHMM)! We're NOT perfect but we're REAL! Thanks everyone for listening and the world needs more music now, real music made by HUMANS not MACHINES! So let's all sing a song with our own voices, please! I do not consent to any of my songs or videos being used or sampled or lifted in any way or fashion. Take care!👍😎✌🏼.
