Fadin away
There’s a part o’ me breakin’ apart
But I’d rather be broken 
Than be a whole nothin’ from the start 

It’s only the start of the day 
Already memories they tear me apart
But I’d rather be broken
Than give it all nothin from the heart 

I walk through nights with shadows that I can’t define  
They whisper of the doubts I don’t let in 
Breathing far too close to me from time to time
Don’t wanna let the bad guys win

I wander roads where echoes haunt the dark beside me
They circle round the thoughts I hold within
Don’t wanna let em feel like they still define me 
Don’t wanna let the bad guys win

I can’t be running away
When everything I am is falling apart 
Don’t like you seeing me broken
But I ain’t making shadows in the dark 

Oh at the end of the day 
Too many losses I could ever ignore 
But I’m only a failure 
If I don’t fight them all anymore 

I walk through nights with shadows that I can’t define  
They whisper of the doubts I don’t let in 
Breathing far too close to me from time to time
Don’t wanna let the bad guys win

I wander roads where echoes haunt the dark beside me
They circle round the thoughts I hold within
Don’t wanna let em feel like they still define me 
Don’t wanna let the bad guys win

I can feel the fear of somethin movin’ up along beside me
How do I keep looking far ahead of all the pain behind me 
I can feel the fear of somethin' movin’ up along beside me
How do I keep looking far ahead of all the pain behind me 

Don't wanna let the bad guys win

I walk through nights with shadows that I can’t define  
They whisper of the doubts I don’t let in 
Breathing far too close to me from time to time
Don’t wanna let the bad guys win

Let the bad guys win 
Whoa bad guys win
Don't let the bad guys win
No Oh

A UN AMIGO

Recuerdo octubre y aquella noche:
íbamos despacio y pensativos;
cuando el sol rayase el horizonte
tomaríamos rumbos distintos.

Eran ya varios los años
que compartíamos juntos
la tristeza en los fracasos
la alegría de los triunfos;
éramos ya como hermanos
sin secretos ni tapujos:
tus problemas eran de ambos
y los míos también tuyos.

Estribillo

Querido amigo Miguel
aunque tú no lo creas
eres la panacea
que cura mis heridas
de sonrisas fingidas
que veo en torno a mi ser.

Querido amigo Miguel
siempre estás a mi diestra
siendo llave maestra
de esa puerta que, a veces,
cierra tras sí mi suerte
y me hace desfallecer.

-------------

Recuerdo octubre y una mañana:
adoptó color de despedida
como si nuestros ojos plasmaran,
en el paisaje, lo que sentían.

Se iba ya un gran amigo
de los que no te abandonan
a pesar de que el destino
muchas veces no perdona;
de aquellos con ese sino
que convierte a la persona
en escudo ante el peligro
que al acecho está en las sombras.

Estribillo

TO A FRIEND

I remember October and that night:
we were going slowly and thoughtfully;
when the sun reached the horizon
we would take different paths.

It had been several years
that we shared together
the sadness of failures
the joy of triumphs;
we were already like brothers
without secrets or cover-ups:
your problems were both of ours
and mine were also yours.

Chorus

Dear friend Miguel
even if you don't believe it
you are the panacea
that heals my wounds
of fake smiles
that I see around my being.

Dear friend Miguel
you are always at my right hand
being the master key
to that door that, sometimes,
closes my luck behind it
and makes me faint.

-------------

I remember October and a morning:
it took on the color of farewell
as if our eyes captured,
in the landscape, what they felt.

A great friend was leaving
one of those who do not abandon you
even though fate
often does not forgive;
one of those with that fate
that turns a person
into a shield against the danger
that lurks in the shadows.

Until We Return

"Not All the Moves We Make Are in the Dark" delves into the theme of the underlying hope, ultimately present in human beings. The piano-based music offers a true inner journey, built on weightless as well as moderately intense sections, through which the piano investigates the delicate line that separates surrender to belief. Most often, we all acknowledge our actions are not leading us towards the path we projected for ourselves. Yet, it is also true that not all the moves we make are in the dark. As long as we keep going, we can land somewhere. The music is named after and inspired by Can't Swim's Album "Fail You Again".

The Sun and the Good - Reimagined

Sometimes life forces you to choose right now. It hurts and it feels like a sudden death. Even if you don’t understand it yet - one day you’ll see it was meant to be. Sudd

Sudden Death

The Timepiece

As stated with earlier tunes, once in while exiting music reviews pop up. They drift away from the usual brabbles into some more distant, eventually experimental, declarations. One of these (from an AllAboutJazz review) makes it into the lyrics of this track.

I do melodic, experimental electronic music using a mixture of both hardware and software with some occasional guitar.  I couldn't put this music into any specific genre.  I just create what comes out. If you enjoy what you hear please like, follow and share.  Thank you!  All beats, production and sound design done by me.
