Nightfolk

Let's Go!

Lyrics - Andrey Voznesensky
Music - Nadir Shamuhamedov
(When I sang it for the first time, I was 23 years old and madly in love...)

English Translation:

Play, grasshopper, play,
Oh, my acoustic grasshopper!
And in these delicious musics
Save all meadows of August...

Play the azure of forest
And  the organs of Lielupe pines,
Sing me a song about the happiness
Of an flighty woman,
Because she is all, I live by...

Play, green music fan!
Our romance is orchestrated with sadness...
Love is not a musical toy,
But it’s also scary to break it.

Play, grasshopper, play, don't stop,
After all, your life is even shorter,
Than the lives of other musicians,
Even though they are not eternal too...

Ron Todd - Lyrics

She was a goddess on the silver screen
All the accolades the best they'd seen
But encores don't come around no more
Fame took to walking and walked out the door

Faded lights in a dressing room
Forgotten face hidden in the gloom
Autographs that was a bygone age
Last years headlines on last years page 

Chorus

Star that used to shine so bright
Leading lady in a leading light
But she fell from way up high
Now the tears are real not an acted lie
Had it all but fame don't last
Present soon becomes the past
Awards lie dusty on a shelf
Champagne changed to something else

Bridge

Gone the glory
Gone the pride
Gone the woman
Gone inside
Gone the life 
Gone the curtain call
Gone the money
Gone and lost it all

Music break

Looking back on a life of gold
Fire went out and it just went cold
Plaudits all went down the drain
Now her roads a one way lane

Stardust turned to 'used to be'
Bubble burst then obscurity
Everybody used to know her name
Played the part but lost the game

Chorus

Fallen star
She was a fallen star
She was a falling star

Fallen Star (Cooper/Todd Collaboration)

This is just Acoustic guitar, some basic drums and vocal. Might add more to it later, clean it up some. I really liked writing and recording this one, it has a lot of potential I think and is very catchy. I find it getting stuck in my head more so than a lot of my previous songs. Hopefully you will all dig it as well.

Lyrics:

I didn’t ask you to show
Up late at night, at my door
Wearing that dress, I like so much
I could tell you felt, out of touch
Your makeup smeared, on your face
Why are you over, at my place

Maybe now you know
How much I love you
Taking advantage of the fact

Now I’m standing here
mind isn’t so clear
I shouldn’t even take you back

Cuz, I know I’m just a rebound
But I can’t turn you down
So, I’m Tryin t show you now
Why you should just stick around
Stick Around

I didn’t want to know
All the things you did before
Wearing that dress, just for him
I could tell you felt, a love begin
Your makeup perfect, your eyes aglow
Then he dropped you and now your low

Stick Around
