A little improvised birthday song for the most important musician in my life, recorded earlier today on my iPhone.

Happy birthday, dear Thom
Happy birthday
I will never find the words t o thank you
For all the things
That you have done so far
Happy
May all your days
Bring you some good
May you never fear
May you always feel harmony
With yourself and with others
May you see all the bright beautiful colours
May you know
That you will always stay the same
And days will change
And days do change
Your thoughts change
But we still remain
Thank you, Thom
I will never find the words to thank you
But here's a start
May you always feel harmony
Within yourself and with others too
May you see always all the bright colours 
May you go out and dance in the strong winds
May you always find good in others
And may you know that you will never truly change
All these other things
They change
But we will always remain 
Happy
Happy
Happy
Happy birthday, dear Thom

Happy Birthday, Dear Thom

Happy Birthday, Dear Thom (video on youtube)

I threw out all your balloons 
I can’t believe all the things I did for you 
I burn all your balloons 
Can’t believe what I did for you 
All that I stayed for 
All that I begged for 
When you knew 
I’d never be enough for you 
When you knew 
I’d never be enough 

I can’t afford to hate myself anymore
Just make it stop Lord Nrsimhadev 
Just make it stop
Make it stop
Stop

The most painful part is that I abandoned myself
Happiness and distress arrive and depart 
And when it comes I’m drowning slowly 
Suffocating 
Do you know what it’s like to be terrified of yourself?

What?
Just serve
I deserve good
I deserve love 

Don’t doubt yourself 

You think you’re not good enough? 
I’m telling you you’re good enough
You are more than enough

Burn Your Balloon

Rehearsal Video

got off the phone with my papa
told me of his psychedelic dream
he said he awoke to tears of happiness
two-year old me
face filled nostalgia
in bed
rested my head on your shoulder
and you said you awoke
we awoke to tears of happiness
he awoke to tears of happiness
oh hang on
but it sounded like an odd, odd trip
but a trip i'd like to have with my little one
one day
when i awake to tears of happiness
next to you
generations they awake 
to tears of happiness
we will awake to tears of happiness
oh let us awake to tears of happiness
that's all we want
it's an odd, odd trip
let us awake
to those tears of happiness

when you were down
i made you up
take your time
a rainbow of purple dimming
black and white birch staying
wind still freezing
charmed lady smiling
flat man trying
can't run and hide from bigger things
go ahead flee to mars
but it won't make you better off

have you heard
of the new names
as they go 
all the way
i go 
from the rote
to the happiness 
next to the horses'
somehow i hear 
all of those highs
all those lows
all the same

would you mind
telling me
when you're back
out of misery
are you at my door?
am i in your head?
am i in your trip?

Gestures of Attraction

About this song

when did it feel like you were gone?
what does it feel like to be wanted?
you all assume that i've got souls chasing after me
did it go just like you had planned?
or was it all a crack in your hand?
did you know that it never ever takes control?
so far there hasn't been a day 
where you don't cross my mind
so far there hasn't been a night 
where your face does not appear in my dreams

stems for remixers available here: blnd.io/3ev4Elk

did it take some time after 
even as they did play?
did it take some time after 
or was it all just a laughter?
did it not take you by surprise
how my world wells with tears?
just thinking about it 
how the mess begins, darling 
how the mess, the mess begins, darling 

only there in the night 
when it starts to fall 
only there in the night 
do I see my fault 
only there in the night 
incognito deal 
only there in the night 
deliberate deal 
only there in the night 
reaction is served 
only in serving the cause of all causes 
only in serving the cause
does the dust settle 

how long will it take me
only to feel for you?
