beautiful performance :) Your vocals remind of Joanna Newsome :)

you are blessed with a beautiful natural voice :)

Flame only Burns by degrees 
And it's in units that we freeze
And by measures do we fail 
I'm sitting somewhere on the scale
 
Only now the wait of time
Drives us further from our mind
And now we hear the Hit Parade 
Of all the messes we have made

Learn my lessons by degrees
Betcha only got down to your knees
When life's allowed to pound you as it please
A drop can just as drown you as the seas

Flame

This song is based and inspired by the movie “let go”, which uncovered the hardships of family relationship and bonds. After watching this really hit in my deep life because I feel for my parents and I we have this artificial wall that was put up to protect each other by not saying anything. We never really know how to communicate to each other and when we do we end up screaming. The guitar and lyrics and a sign and call of hopes of altering and restoring was is already broken. 

Lyrics 

It all comes crashing down 
Don’t even make a sound 
Cause the sound turns into screaming
And we both know that’s our weak end 

A trace, a glance, a step 
Out the white wall’s express 
We sit amongst this table 
How long can we stay stable? 

Maybe we can try 
Maybe I won’t cry, this time 
Can I hold it? 
Just to have a moment? 

Chorus
With you

With you.m4a

First I felt it moving
In  the grass
Then creaking across the floorboards
To my toes
Entangling itself within
My bones
Now there’s no reason to let it go 
It hid behind the babble
Of shame
I cursed it and thought that I was to blame
The darkness was clever and persuasive 
I thought that i could fake it
But now I see it clear as day
–
Girls they’ve always done it for me
With their bright tempting smiles
And their warm feelings 
Now you know
Now you know
And if I had everything she’d
Still be the first person every morning
Now you know 
Now you know
–
Used to think falling out
Came as quick as falling in
And I won’t know what I want
Until I know what I needed
Starting to think the destination 
Was worth the journey 
Wanted it to leave 
But it was built in me
I’m coming out of this cave to greet the sun
–
Girls they’ve always done it for me
With their bright tempting smiles
And their warm feelings 
Now you know
Now you know
And if I had everything she’d
Still be the first person every morning
Now you know 
Now you know
–
And when 
They say 
When 
They scream
Now I can’t hear anything
She’s dancing
In my dreams
Wrong is never the case
When you’ve never felt so free!
–
Girls they’ve always done it for me
With their bright tempting smiles
And their warm feelings 
Now you know
Now you know
And if I had everything she’d
Still be the first person every morning
Now you know 
Now you know
Now I know
Now I know

I know

Elijah Who - Talk To Me (w Toph)

I lost my guitar pick :(

This is a sad song

Oh Sure!

This song was written by my brother and I (mostly him haha) to make fun of mainstream mumble rap. The lyrics were inspired by what we saw while swimming at our grandma's house one day (yes, even a dead rat). So this is my first joke song, hope you hate/love it as much as I do lol.

Fresh Fave 378. Review below. 

"This is kippers for breakfast, toe curling wonder, zest on the tongue, salt in the wind, tequila burn in the chest good. I just felt Bananrama It’s Not What You Do It’s the Way That You Do It. I smell some Kate Bush influences too. Damn, I listened to the first 42 seconds over and over again. From the wondrous simplicity of the bass, the toms and the vocals “can you hear my heartbeat”. We enter the weirdness from there, nice weirdness, like deep fried mars bars, weaving a musical batter, turning your brain into a crispy exterior whilst melting your mind into a warm delightful goo on the inside."

We're going through some strange wild, 
We're crawling on our hands and our feet,
And they're coming for us!
Oooo, can you hear my heartbeat?

Engines sulking, suits sleep-walking, 
Where were you while I was talking?
Pockets fatten, flowers flatten, 
What's the worst thing that could happen?

Chorus. 

Kind's in hiding, love's deciding, 
Careful there, your mask is sliding. 
Words have seeded, most unneeded, 
I will weed if weeding's needed. 

Chorus.

Strange Wild

This is version 1 of 'Untrodden Lead New Pristine', an overlapping of intimate words and funky jazz sounds. Somehow, the emotional status of a world moving and rushing while the inner space is struggling within itself.

Excerpt from 'Im Westen Nichts Neues/All Quiet on the Western Front' (Chapter 12) by Erich Maria Remarque

‘Had we returned home in 1916, out of the suffering and the strength of our experiences we might have unleashed a storm. Now if we go back we will be weary, broken, burnt out, rootless, and without hope. We will not be able to find our way anymore.
And men will not understand us – for the generation that grew up before us, though it has passed these years with us already had a home and a calling; now it will return to its old occupations, and the war will be forgotten – and the generation that has grown up after us will be strange to us and push us aside. We will be superfluous even to ourselves, we will grow older, a few will adapt themselves, some others will merely submit, and most will be bewildered; – the years will pass by and in the end we shall fall into ruin.
But perhaps all this that I think is mere melancholy and dismay, which will fly away as the dust, when I stand once again beneath the poplars and listen to the rustling of their leaves. It cannot be that it has gone, the yearning that made our blood unquiet, the unknown, the perplexing, the oncoming things, the thousand faces of the future, the melodies from dreams and from books, the whispers and divinations of women; it cannot be that this has vanished in bombardment, in despair, in brothels.
Here the trees show gay and golden, the berries of the rowan stand red among the leaves, country roads run white out to the skyline, and the canteens hum like beehives with rumours of peace.
I stand up.
I am very quiet. Let the months and years come, they can take nothing from me, they can take nothing more. I am so alone, and so without hope that I can confront them without fear. The life that has borne me through these years is still in my hands and my eyes. Whether I have subdued it, I know not. But so long as it is there it will seek its own way out, heedless of the will that is within me.’

Sonopoem ‘Im Westen Nichts Neues’

All quiet. Niente di nuovo.
Where is the storm, the awe
that yelling at the top 
of our lungs, the desperate flight?
Im Westen Nichts Neues, Europa.
Before and after, hidden and heedless.
Consciously superfluous to yourself.

We walk your geology Europa
And nothing is pristine.
What is missing, what thought
what sorrow?
It cannot be that we forgot our intents.
You keep withdrawing. 
And I keep talking to myself.
