ascending memories nowhere dance

If you so happen to like this, please please give me a like.  

The only thing from the original recording is the vocal, me in 2002.  I've kept the original vocal because I like how I stylised it, though I'm not entirely sure what I was aiming for there, most likely trying to sound like someone - though I can't remember who! 

It's got the benefits of being a voice about 19/20 years younger than the present one!  I'm by no means fallen to pieces, but have a notably different voice at 42 to the one I had at 22! I did try to re record a little piece of the vocal, just a couple of words, won't say which bit, only because it was a lyric I didn't love, but that sadly made the voice difference over 20 years glaringly obvious, because of which I've left the vocal as it was. 

Lyrics

You always tell me that I'm looking fine
I know you know I've got things on my mind
I know I've been lost and, in the freeze,
Been beaten down, the bruises only I can see!

I feel the cold wind cut close to the bone
At times when I feel like I’m on my own
But no, I ‘m still me 
I’m still me!

Just need a little recovery
Try and be the way I used to be
And see the things I used to see
A smile on my face
But smiles can be misplaced
In time, can be erased
But mine will be replaced
Will be replaced!

You exorcize the things that haunt my soul
Can leap through fire when I’m not alone
But no I'm not brave
My life's another slay
Inner punches by my fist alone
Struggles twine themselves around my throat
But no I'm still me
I’m still me!

Just need a little recovery
Try and be the way I used to be
And see the things I used to see
A smile on my face
But smiles can be misplaced
In time, can be erased
But mine will be replaced
Will be replaced!

Sometimes I feel like there’s just no way out
Feel like my body’s knocked into the ground
I know I seem to have lost all control
My frail image might have lost it’s soul

But I know, still, I won’t go! 

Just need a little recovery
Try and be the way I used to be
And see the things I used to see
A smile on my face
But smiles can be misplaced
In time, can be erased
But mine will be replaced
Will be replaced!

Rain is falling on our town and bouncing all over the place.
No one knows when it will end. The situation is getting worse.
The fire eventually closes in on the church and envelops the town.
We have no one to pray to anymore.

Chrome roses bloom everywhere, and the world emits a dazzling light.

I was going to run away if something like this happened.
But in reality, there was nowhere to run.
We gradually lose our sense of reality.
The world has entered an age of absurdity.

Chrome roses bloom everywhere, and the world emits a dazzling light.

It could be an eternity, or it could be a moment.
Anyway, The meaning of the word "future" has changed.
We will continue to live as the dead.
Or continue to die as the living.

Chrome roses bloom everywhere, and the world emits a dazzling light.

Christos - Vocals, Lyrics

Breathing in a sea of violence,
Dealing with my fate with a consiouss eye,
Swimming by my anger to silence,
Its a stepping stone to what you shall live,
Met you in a day of weakness,
That i am alone with nothing to quest,
Give me now your only forgiveness,
Make me feel blessed that i found you now,
Swimming all my pain in your madness,
Swimming just above the thought of your hopes,
Playing all around with your sadness,
Can't you feel in this role that am not alone ,
Travelling in your sea of badness,
Shore to shore sacred by my holy oath,
Do you want to feel my godness,
Do you want to feel my breath in your core.

Enjoy One Breath!!

ONE BREATH (Lyrics on Description)

But Grandma Does Have Wheels (She Is, In Fact, A Wagon)

I think every home recording musician can relate to this sad lament.
Mixing up some soft rock and hard rock. Also, some flutes (because, they're jazzy cool man!)
Lyrics:
My neighbor
She works all day
She likes to come home
And sleep at night
In the peace and quiet
She tells me to keep my rock & roll down
I'm just trying to make
A little bit of rock & roll history
While I still can
Oh, but she tells me
To keep it real low
Keep it under
30 Db's (30 Db's!)
Oh, please!
I'm walking the walls
Like a church mouse
I'm just a man
And his guitar
Playing into headphones
(playing into headphones!)
When I feel like I need to crank things up
She tells me
"You've got to turn that racket down!"

Ohh I
I'll do everything
I'll play my
Soft marshmallow blues
(marshmallow blues!)
With flutes
I'm just a lonely rocker
Playing guitar
In my headphones
(in my headphones!)

She tells me to keep it down!
To keep it soft!
To keep it low!
To keep it quiet!
That's the way it goes
Now I play my guitar into my headphones
Into my headphones
(In my headphones!)

A Man, His Guitar, Playing Into Headphones

Spicy Wasabi

You Don't Go Blind But Very Shortsighted

Made partly during my very recent trip to Ukraine; which, by the way, was amazing and I can only recommend it (though for the sake of safety I would, of course, recommend it after the war is over).

I spent nearly a week in Kyiv and in total it took me more than 26 hours to get there (by a couple of trains) and about the same amount of time to get back home to Czechia and it was absolutely worth it!
A beautiful place.

Слава Україні!

A cherry tree is called "sakura " in Japan. Seasonal changes in the cherry trees are expressed in this song. It consists of three parts.

 I: A shower of falling cherry blossoms.

 II: The season of fresh verdure. The trees have bunches of green cherries.

 III: Calm trees in a fine rain.

  Enjoy the scenery!

  Thank you.

Fragile Tales [Part 3]

I played a bass part for our cover of Tom Waits' "Bad As Me" but it didn't seem to quite fit. 
Then Mo sent me a present to cheer me up with what I had done.
