SLEEP WITH THE DEAD

I CAN NOT BE WHAT YOU WANT ME TO BE...BABY
I CAN NOT DO WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO...BABY
I COULD NEVER WALK THROUGH FIRE FOR YOU
I COULD NEVER DO THE THINGS YOU ASK ME TO
I AIN’T NO MUNTER, MORON, HUH
I AIN’T NOTHIN’ LIKE YOU

YOU DID NOT CREATE ME
BUT LATELY
YOU HATE THE WAY I WALK, THE WAY I TALK,
THE WAY I PUNCH YOU IN THE MOUTH
THOUGH YOU ARE HAVING FUN NOW
I WILL ESCAPE YOU SOMEHOW

DON’T TRY TO MAKE EXCUSES
DON’T COME IT WITH THOSE LIES
YOU ALWAYS WERE ABUSIVE
BUT NEVER TOLD ME WHY

MY MEMORY IS HAZY
MY THOUGHTS A DEEPER BLUE
MY DIAGNOSIS, CRAZY,
AND IT’S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
>
THOSE MANIC MOMENTS PHASED ME
THE AIR WAS TURNING BLUE
ATTEMPTING TO ERASE ME
WITH THE CHINA THAT YOU THREW

I WILL NOT THINK ABOUT THE THINGS THAT WE DID
I WILL NOT TALK ABOUT THE THINGS THAT WE SAID
FOR ALL ETERNITY CONFINED TO MY BED
I’LL KILL YOUR MEMORY, AND SLEEP WITH THE DEAD

NOW I SLEEP WITH THE DEAD
I SLEEP WITH THE DEAD

Ruby on the Roba

This is a song, a metaphor, about the danger fed to society by too consuming much Internet, in all of its forms.  Don't walk into the muddy waters too deep.

---

It started on a very cold night; uptight. 
Her friend said that she's ok, just so tired.
Things went awry online, in a short space of time, 
senseless reasons that she took her own life.

There was this guy who was ok, mentally.
Before the the Internet took him away,
now most people he knows don't want to hear what he knows,
this is how it goes, unfortunately.

Muddy waters.
You take your chances.

Big tech guru watching the harm his invention has on society.
Yet he forges on, fanning the flames, 
making it worse instead of better; indifferent to the pain,
anything to make some gains. 

Solo.

It can be a dangerous water that we don't want to swim in.   
If you step in, you can't see who will bite back.
Each drown out the next until you can't hear a thing.  
All it takes is for you to believe their spin.

Muddy waters.
You take your chances.

Muddy Waters

ETERNITY'S BREATH

Beyond eternity look what we  've missed,
We are looking like clouds ridding the mist
We thought it was all over and there is no return,
And now we wonder how not to pretend.

The doors are opening and light shall glow,
Illusion desperate to give us a bow,
Reality syndrome is hoping relief,
And our solar heaven ignites with belief.

We were born free
We were born free
Lets dive to this world free
Lets dive to this world free

Freeborn - Freeborn.

ETERNITY'S BREATH - JAMMING ME AND BILL (Lyrics on Description)

I always enjoy collaborating with Bruce Kenyon (https://soundcloud.com/epicdreamery). This song is about enduring difficulty yet keeping a positive outlook. 

I am a Survivor
Music, Vocals and production by Bruce Kenyon
Lyrics by Andrea Brennan

V1
Standing at your grave site
I am fearful and cold
You weren't supposed to leave me
I'm just eighteen years old

V2
The world is a monster 
I will now face alone
But I have your love inside my heart
And your strength inside my bones

Chorus
I am a survivor
I'm ready to fight
Dark times lay ahead
But my will burns bright
I am a survivor
And I'm ready to fight
With an angel watching over me
I know I'll be alright

V3
Silent tears sting my eyes
As I resolve to go
Heading off towards my future 
Down an uncharted road

V4
Mistakes they may find me 
With every wrong turn
But I will keep (on) growing stronger
With every lesson I learn

Chorus
I am a survivor
I'm ready to fight
Dark times lay ahead
But my will burns bright
I am a survivor
And I'm ready to fight
With an angel watching over me
I know I'll be alright

Bridge
You were my nest and oak tree
My sanctuary
My river and compass
Always guiding me
And every heartfelt stitch 
In our woven tapestry
All of these things
All these memories (optional L7 or L8)
Live on in me

Chorus
I am a survivor
I'm ready to fight
Dark times lay ahead
But my will burns bright

I am a survivor
And I'm ready to fight
With an angel watching over me
I know I'll be alright

I AM A SURVIVOR

"Hunger" is a searing post-punk manifesto that transforms societal outrage into raw sonic energy. The track builds around a relentless bass line and sharp, angular guitar work that perfectly complements its unflinching examination of food insecurity in a world of abundance.

The verses paint a stark portrait of food bank reality—fluorescent-lit desperation where "lives are reduced to logistics" and "dignity slips further away." When the chorus hits with its haunting refrain "In the shadow of plenty, we stand in line," minimal synth textures swell beneath increasingly urgent vocals that build from controlled tension to righteous anger.

Midway through, the instrumentation breaks into chaotic, distorted territory as the lyrics shift from observation to accusation, calling out systemic failures with undisguised contempt. The track's climactic final section features multiple vocal layers that create a chorus of dissent, with the repeated mantra "Food is for everybody, not just for the rich" delivered with punk ferocity over increasingly frenzied percussion.

"Hunger" stands in the tradition of politically charged post-punk pioneers like Gang of Four and The Pop Group while incorporating modern production techniques that give its message immediate, visceral impact. A powerful statement on inequality that refuses to look away from uncomfortable truths.

Hunger

I wrote this years ago, and it's one of my favorites. It's one of those songs that has had many transitions, one of my favorite melodies, and you always want the perfect lyrics and when they come it is such a great feeling. I thank God for giving me this song. Forever home behind the keys forever home with Him. I hope you like this live take I did late at night (March 13, 2025) just me and my Baldwin, accompanied by my trusty Tascam Portacapture x8 picking up the piano from behind with the condenser mics and a Rode NT1 for vocals. Thanks so much for listening!:) God bless. 

Forever Home 

Right behind these keys 
I feel a gentle breeze
You're right here with me
Oh the time can really freeze
Eight billion hearts
You struck my lonely heart

I'm forever home 
I'm forever home
I'm forever home
Oh I'm forever home 
I'm home 

You have put a fire 
Deep inside my bones
The devil is such a liar
I'm walking on him like stones
Everything is brighter
I'll never ever be alone 

I'm forever home 
I'm forever home
I'm forever home
Oh I'm forever home 
I'm home 

Ooo ooo ooo ooo 
Ooo ooo ooo ooo 
Ooo ooo ooo ooo 

Jesus Jesus Jesus 

Ooo ooo ooo ooo 
Ooo ooo ooo ooo 
Ooo ooo ooo ooo 

Jesus Jesus Jesus 

I'm forever home 
I'm forever home
I'm forever home
Oh I'm forever home 
I'm home 

Jesus
