Acoustic Sunrise

I keep going
I can't stop
The fire remains in me
I will not drop

The times I wanted to give up
I almost won
The times I wanted to give up
I felt I was done

Then something inside me
Said keep going on
This is what you're meant to be
If you so choose
Not to be done

In a world where life does not seem fair
You have to keep working harder
Don't despair
For your time is going to come

Hold on tight
Hold for love
Hold for dreams
Hold on, you've begun

Everyone has their own way
What you do
Should not copy
What they say

Be you
Be who you're supposed to be
Be the one who loves
Be the one who dreams

I know you can win
I know you can dream
I know you will shine
Like all the stars above the sea

In a world where life does not seem fair
You have to keep working harder
Don't despair
For you're time is going to come

Hold on tight
Hold for love
Hold for dreams
Hold on, you've begun

Angel, Number 309

The moors are bare

Recorded, performed, and written by Patrick Burke, 2025

"I Live in Dream"
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 

where shadows sigh,

Beneath a cold,

 and mourning sky;

The moors are bare, the winds are low,

And none but phantoms,

 come and go.

The stars have eyes that do not see,
They burn in vain for one like me—
A soul unclaimed by hearth or kin,
With midnight’s whisper deep within.

No morning,
 breaks this twilight mind,

No earthly voice, 

no touch, no kind;

Only her face, pale as the tomb,
Appears to light my spirit’s gloom.

She speaks in hush, in haunted rhyme,
A relic lost to death and time;
And though I reach, I cannot keep
What only walks when mortals sleep.

I live in dream—

alone, unseen—

Where love is ghost, 

and hope is keen.

And should I wake, I fear the day
Would steal her shade and drift away.

I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 

The stars have eyes that do not see,
They burn in vain for one like me—
A soul unclaimed by hearth or kin,
With midnight’s whisper deep within

I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream, 
The moors are bare
I live in dream,

The moors are bare

There’s a kind of silence that speaks louder than any scream.
Silence is a prayer whispered in the ruins.
#Fountains Are. #Ash Folk.

Existuje ticho, které mluví hlasitěji než výkřik.

3.Silence

This is first song from my album name's twinself.

1.-step by step

I read the news through a painted lens
Lies wrapped up in corporate friends
I dig through dirt, I chase the thread
While the world just scrolls and shakes its head

No fancy schools, no PhD
But I see what they don’t want me to see
Patterns in chaos, whispers in smoke
Truth dressed up like some kind of joke

The wise are breaking, numbing their pain
To unsee what’s real in a world insane

Do I rise? Do I fight?
For a flag that don’t feel right?
Do I bleed for a cause
While they sit behind their laws?
No more war for a wicked regime
No more deaths for a corporate dream
We built this cage —
We can tear the seams

They push us down, feed us despair
Profit from panic, then strip us bare
Weapons sold for a bloody prize
While monsters hide behind suits and ties

Equality? Just a word they twist
Solutions fade in an iron fist
“Share the wealth” they call it war
When we ask for less, they take some more

(Yeah!)
Tear the walls down stone by stone
(BOOM!)
Burn the thrones and take the throne
(Come on!)
Break the banks and shred the chains
Let the people rise from pain

Stop the killing for their gain
Let the fire wash this shame
Let the system fall to dust
Let ‘em fear the ones they crushed
We are many — we can see
They don’t own you
They don’t own me

We built this world — now let it burn
And build again on what we learn
No kings, no gods, no lies to feed
Just open hearts
Where we can fucking breathe

Blood for Nothing

Don't Put Your Faith In Me

Put the grape between my lips,
Bit down into its juicy flesh.
It wasn’t mine to taste like this,
But I made my choice without regret.

Don’t tell me you have never had,
Temptation that you caved in to.
Just like you gave yourself to me,
Just like I gave myself to you.

Oh oh,
La la la.
Oh oh,
La la la la,
Oh oh,
La la la.
Oh oh,
La la la la,


I placed your hand upon my hips,
Told you that I like to dance.
I knew another wore your ring,
I didn’t leave your love to chance.

Don’t tell me that I acted first,
I had seen your double take,
When you saw me that first time,
I knew the fire that I had waked.

Give myself to you!
(Oh oh, La la la)
Give yourself to me!
(Oh oh, La la la)
Give myself to you!
(Oh oh, La la la)
Give yourself to me!
To me, to me!!!!
 
I stole your heart and gave you mine,
That wasn’t all of me you took.
I raised you up in exultation,
Made you forget what you forsook.

Don’t tell me I’m a scarlet woman,
You’re just as much a scarlet man.
My body’s ready for the rapture,
Make me your priestess if you can.

Give myself to you!
(Oh oh, La la la)
Give yourself to me!
(Oh oh, La la la)
Give myself to you!
(Oh oh, La la la)
Give yourself to me!
To me, to me!!!!

Give Myself To You

Every day I wake up,
To the days bad news.
War, death and pestilence
Are sharpening their tools.

I read it in the papers,
I watch it on TV,
The horsemen of the end of days
Coming for you and me.

Every night's a struggle,
Nothing's as it seems.
World War three and mushroom clouds
Haunt my broken dreams.

I wish I had a spaceship,
To leave the world behind,
Instead of feeling impotent,
Instead of walking blind.

This is our final bow
To crazed applause
We wonder how, we
Fluffed our lines,
And lost the plot,
Is this the best script
That we’ve got?


Standing at the station,
Waiting for my train,
I catch a glimpse of heaven,
Through the driving rain.

Where all mankind is valued,
None are feared or shunned,
I know that I sound crazy,
But I filled my heart with love.

Then I saw the headlines
“War is on the way”
“Fanatics fanning florid fears”
“Pollution here to stay”
I knew then it was hopeless
A mess we cannot right
So I buttoned up my raincoat
A lost soul in the night

This is our final bow
To crazed applause
We wonder how, we
Fluffed our lines,
And lost the plot,
Is this the best script
That we’ve got?

This is our final bow
This is our final bow
This is our final bow
This is our final bow

Our Final Bow


We were introduced by a mutual friend
Though I’ve since thought twice if they were
You told me your name was Cassandra
The most beautiful name I had heard

That night went by in a fabulous daze
I woke up with you adorning my bed
But I didn’t know then you’d begun your campaign
Of stealing away all the dreams in my head

Take a cup full of cruelty
And a measure of beauty
Mix it well with hot anger
I give you Cassandra
Lick the spoon clean of lust
Not a trace there of trust
An insatiable hunger
I could not say no to Cassandra

A year had gone by with you at my side
I wasn’t the bravo I’d been when we met
I lived for your favor and begged for your touch
No more a man, more like your pet

My awakening came when I unlocked the door
To the room that we shared, rent paid by me
And found you in bed with our mutual friend
Caught in the act, but at last I was free

Take a cup full of cruelty
And a measure of beauty
Mix it well with hot anger
I give you Cassandra
Lick the spoon clean of lust
Not a trace there of trust
An insatiable hunger
I could not say no to Cassandra

A cup full of cruelty
A measure of beauty
Such hunger and anger
No man could say no to Cassandra

Cassandra


The recruiter's at the high school
With his polished shoes and smile
Says your country needs you, son
Just sign along the dotted line
When you hesitate he leans in close
Says refusal ain't an option here
One way or another, boy
You're going, that's crystal clear

Do your bit and don't speak up
Get in line and play your part
And if you think you've got a choice
Well, that's where the trouble starts

They don't take no for an answer
Never have and never will
They just dress it up in different ways
But it's the same old bitter pill

Your father says you'll take the job
He spent his whole life building
Says you owe it to the family
This house, this name, this living
When you mention dreams of leaving
Going somewhere far away
He just shakes his head and tells you
Son, there ain't no other way

Do your bit and don't speak up
Get in line and play your part
And if you think you've got a choice
Well, that's where the trouble starts

They don't take no for an answer
Never have and never will
They just dress it up in different ways
But it's the same old bitter pill

The foreman at the factory
Says the quota just went up
If you can't make the numbers
Then you're out of luck
Union tried to fight it once
But the union's dead and gone
Now it's work until you break
Or you’d better move along

Do your bit and don't speak up
Get in line and play your part
And if you think you've got a choice
Well, that's where the trouble starts

They don't take no for an answer
Never have and never will
They just dress it up in different ways
But it's the same old bitter pill
