shadilay - kekistani anthem on banjo (rough cut)

Too Tired to Pray

[VERSE]
Im sick and tired of getting presents
Evry single year
They fill my room full
With junk from the store
Ill never use I fear

If you give me fruitcake?
Or something nice to eat
Thats fine with me
Just dont buy me
Another tonka fleet

[CHORUS]
I dont need more trash for Christmas
An orange in a stocking is quite fine
Ya think your santa claus
But I can't see my walls
Someone clearly didn't draw the line

I know you think I'll love you if your shopping
Getting gifts the day before the eve
but ill spend this new year here
Digging through the gear
Just making room to breathe

[VERSE]
I don't feel like Christmas shopping
So ill be the guy
Who gives wooly socks
And cracked wooden tops
and makes my nephews cry

But on the morning after
I will be out of town
I wont be around 
to clean up the mound
Of christmas aftermath

Christmas Aftermath (DEMO)

I first wrote the chorus of this song during a day at work. I then wrote the tune to the chorus, the chords for the verses, then the verses. It is about all sorts of things, but one thing in particular. I want to leave it up to your interpretation though.

This Planet (DEMO)

I wrote this as a fusion between traditional bluegrass and music of middle Eurasia.

On the Mend

Kinda rough song cause I have no mic lol and the verses were made up so I could do something more than the chorus lol

Mouse In The House!

This is my translation of the Kyrgyz folk song Кереги жок, I have opted to make it more accessible for English speaking listeners, rather than preserve full meaning. I have also opted to give it a more "country" vibe. 

No use [to anyone] (Кереги жок)

Oh the snow bid goodbye
And the time draweth nigh
That I go away
I go to outside
Where there’s nowhere to hide
From the man I am today

One day, or perhaps one night
You will wake to see me offline
I am walking about on the top of some mount
Making what I can of my time

I might see you again
When there’s cold in the wind
When the sky goes dark, and light hides
If you hear a faint knock
Extra clicks in your clock
A faint shiver goes down your spine
Am I online
