Synthesis of ambient and avant gard techniques is really interesting and works well

nice ambient. Perfect for rainy afternoons.

This is a awesome capture of everyday life. Lives intersecing here

Well it has been a dull few months, hence the need for surprises. I'll leave it up you as to what the surprise might be.

Lyrics

I’ve got a surprise for you  
Like Miles you’ve been feeling ‘kinda blue’
Missin’ Valentine’s was hateful 
Now we’re here in April
But I’ve got a surprise for you

First thought about getting a tat-too
An arrow through the heart, that’s cut in two
Or something from your wish list
We don’t have to wait till Christmas
I’ve got a surprise for you
 
I’ve got a surprise for you
So what if we’re financial-la-ly screwed
No compromises
When it comes to surprises 
I’ve got a surprise for you   

I’ve got a surprise for you
I’ve got a surprise for you
Open up your eye-ziz
I know you like surprise-ziz
I’ve got a surprise for YOoooooooouuuuuuu xxx

I've Got A Surprise For You!

I wrote this one during lockdown a while back, it needs a bit of work....

From Aunty Joan

An Emperor sits on his throne
Building states from human bones
I heard all this from Aunty Joan
She told me on the telephone

Learn to love your inner beast
She said with fortitude at least
put your best foot forward now
Try not to slay the sacred cow

Welcome to the bottom of the pile
You might be here with us for quite a while
And if you're wondering where the moneys gone
It never stays around for far to long long

Prepare for the worst but hope for the best
Scream and shout, don't let it rest
Let it out, get it off your chest

I heard all of this from Aunty Joan
She told me on the bleeding telephone
She told us all this day would soon arrive
And we should hope and pray for our lives

I'm a little wary and skeptical
To drink or not to drink,  and question all
Try not to fight or cause a public brawl
Its what she said to me  if I recall
Unless I want them to cut off my balls

Prepare for the worst but hope for the best
Scream and shout, don't let it rest
Let it out, get it off your chest

I heard all of this from Aunty Joan
She told me on the bleeding telephone
She told us all that day would soon arrive
And we should hope and pray for our lives

A Journey Through Space

GLORY

It’s just a love song. Written in June/July 2022 but set in a room in an old house in Exeter in 1985.

Lyrics: 
I must accept its love

My watch strap smells of perfume from a town in Southern France
You wore my watch last weekend at a party where we danced
We were kissing in the pub, our friends were laughing,  they were singing
The band was playing loud, our lips were sore, our ears were ringing

And now, the window to my room is open to the night
Its cold but I can see the stars, and watch the trees sway in the moonlight
The tap drips, floors creak, but I’m safe within these walls
And I miss you so badly, can’t live at all

Its just so strong ,I feel possessed by these thoughts of you
I’ve tried to fight it but there is nothing I can do
I should accept its love

I hear the train announcements from platforms down the hill
And prayers are said for our love in a room that’s light and still
I love this life I live, but now its dull and slow without you
I don’t want that anymore, and now I know what I must do

And now, I’m alone and lying in the deepest bath
My fingers trace the places on my body where you kissed me in the dark
I want the movement of your body, I want the touch, I want the heat
And I miss you so badly, just got to get through this week

Its just so strong I feel possessed by these thoughts of you
I’ve tried to fight it but there is nothing I can do
And Its changed my life and now all I want is you
I must accept its love
Yes, I know its love
It’s our love 

(Fade out….)
(Sitting by an open window, cold breeze airs my mind
I’ve been writing words with lonely meaning just to pass the time
And I should be working, or reading or something, just things that have passed me by
But your image haunts, it controls my senses, you have my heart and mind
(So Lost without you)

I must accept it's love

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.
