Lyrics...

I built a wall
I locked the gate
Waited for time
To seal my fate
Was paralysed
Was so unsure
I felt unclean
And what is more

I looked in to
The mirror there
I fell apart
I didn't care

I hope that my body's never found
Perhaps some day
But never now
No, never now

What should I do?
Where should I go?
Why call a wind
That never blows?
I kept the peace
With the devine
I'm heading off
Which suits me fine

Now then, Now then
Dry your tears
For me my friend
Just dry your tears

This is my beginning
I'll see you at the end

I embraced
The blackest night
I wish I could
I wish I might
I dreamt of stars
That shone so bright
They still blind me
Today

I held out hands
To touch the world
It rejected me
In a ball I curled

I hope my body's never found
Perhaps some day
But never now
No, never now

The Puppeteers

This is my Beginning

This Is My Beginning

Lyrics...

I'm just an old guy yellin' at clouds,
Hoping for some rain to fall.
I don't care if the lightnin' strikes,
I know what I'm in for.

I'm no good at being in crowds,
I'm too quick at speakin' my mind.
I'm too foolish that I won't back down,
I melt like butter on the inside. 

Got my high,
Got my buzz.
Got enough for the both of us.

Got my heart, 
Beating fast.
I hope this feeling's gonna last.

In tryin' to break the silence,
Someone please come and rattle my cage.
I'll try to make it plain and simple, 
I've still got you playin' with my brain.

I'll kick back and lie in the long grass.
I'll have a time and smoke a reefer or two,
If anyone asks for or wants me,
I'll be back by the middle of June.

Man I be chillin' 'n' killin' it good now,
Got high on life like any old guy should.

Got my high,
Got my buzz.
Got enough for the both of us.

Got my heart, 
Beating fast.
I hope this feeling's gonna last.

I'm just an old guy yellin' at clouds,
Hopin' for some rain to fall.

Yellin' at Clouds

Yellin at the Clouds

Synthbuster, a French music producer, has crafted some incredible music. His music spans a wide range of styles, including retro and synth, pop, and more. One day, a few Synthbuster tracks unexpectedly crossed my ears, and I quickly added them to my Spacey Synthwave collection. Then, out of the blue, he reached out to collaborate with me, asking me to sing. I was thrilled and immediately agreed.


He sent me this exquisite track, and I spent some time brainstorming ideas for lyrics. The music evoked a vivid scene of sudden rain followed by a drought ending in a desert, with a fast car speeding down the road. It was a story about choosing one’s own destiny and embracing the joys of life amidst the struggles.

Dream Unwind  

How am I supposed to feel
7 long years in drought
Spinning through the rain at dusk
Droplets reflect in my mirror  

So finally the rain 
We’ll never be the same 
Let go of the tears
Thats caused all the pain
The altitude gains
While spinning my tires
Travel for awhile (feel’s like we’re waiting) 

So finally the rain 
We’ll never be the same 
Let go of the tears
Let go of the pain
Just take what you feel
We’ll all be ok 
Look out for out for each other 
Wash those fears away 

Finally the rain 
altitude gains
spins off my tires 
Travel for miles
Better to give 
Than to receive
More than belief 
Curve through the streets 
These are my dreams
Control my own destiny

Finally the rain
Altitude gains 
Spins off my tires
Travel for miles 

So finally the rain 
We’ll never be the same 
Let go of the tears
Let go of the pain
Just take what you feel
We’ll all be ok 
Look out for out for each other 
Wash those fears away 
Wash the fears away 

How am I supposed to feel? 
How does it ever end? 
Soaring down the road at dusk
Rain hitting off my windshield 
After all this time 
I find a dream unwind
How am I supposed to feel?

Dream Unwind (Feat. Synthbuster)

Welcome to the Basement saw Future>Now diving into darker, moodier territory while continuing their tradition of fusing old and new material. With brooding rhythms and introspective themes, the album explored concepts of isolation and rediscovery.

01 Welcome To The Basement

05 Stay Silent

Another song from the 80s. First 2 verses written by a good friend of mine. Chorus and 3rd verse by me.
Some extra sounds courtesy of Mr. Wayne. Thank you once again

Subtle and complex she said as a spider's web
The curtain opens on another act
Ideas spill forth like so many rabbits from a hat
Entranced the conjurer weaves tangled visions
I carry pieces of you she said inside of me that sometimes rise uninvited to tantalise and trap like truth in your eyes  in a car in the rain
Easy to be like a messenger so easy to be like a messenger 
The curtain rises on a final act ideas no longer spill forth and truth must remain in a car in the rain
Easy to be like a messenger so easy to be you don't have to stay the same

Like a Messenger

A song evolved from an acoustic sketch that I sent to  Noobly and he liked it and set to work on it. 
He used the original vocal from the sketch so with his magical wizardry  created this wonderful piece of work. I didn’t have to do anything really. 
Nothing complicated just a song about stealing that girl’s heart .
So Conscience Of Kings give you their first song of 2025 
Romantic Thief…….


V1. 
She knows Real is rare
And real is something we share 
Our energy’s are alined
From Timbuktu all the way to mine

Bridge 

So Before tomorrow comes 
I’m Sitting here working out the sums 

Chorus 
How this  romantic thief 
Who can seal you so complete 
This romantic thief

V2 
She knows real is rare 
And rare makes you care 
Can I wrap you up in cotton wool 
I’m an Taurus china  shop bull 

Bridge
Chorus 


Romantic Thief ~ Conscience Of Kings

The Tower ( Brownie, Fox & Daniels)
By :This Sound Society 

A song inspired by taking my 89 year mother to The Vintage Boys  Rock n Roll show.
A three piece harmony group backed by a fantastic band.
After the gig my mother reminisced about her own rock n roll days mainly at The Tower Ballroom where she danced the night away with her sister, brothers & friends.
So I thought I would love to create a three part harmony song with a twist of vintage and modern rock n roll thrown in. 
Magic Mike Fox loves a challenge and Nat Daniels is always up for a sing a long with me & Mike . So from basically an acoustic version to this power house. Magic Mike waved his wand and it’s happened. 

The Tower Ballroom was an attraction in Birmingham England which opened to the public in March 1876 and closed permanently in 2017 and was demolished in 2022.
It held 150 years of history and It was located beside Edgbaston reservoir. 
The Tower Ballroom hosted a wide variety of events, including roller-skating, ice-skating, dancing, discos, weddings, boxing matches, theatre, and musical performances including many famous names that graced its revolving stage. 
It was the place to go in the late 50s/60s onwards for the young people of Birmingham to enjoy the thrill of a big live music and dance venue.
Many romances, marriages and divorces were down  to The Tower . 
My own parents meet at The Tower and went on to  have a wonderful marriage.
So I dedicate this tune to my parents and all those stories my mother told me about it and how iconic it was.
It feels like a part of me and I did visit it myself a few times for a night out  usually after yet another refurbished in the 80s/ 90s. 
The picture cover is a photo of the queue for that last ever afternoon dance. Couples who meet at The Tower and got married were asked to attend to give it a good send off before being demolished. 
Would especially like to thank Mike for his patience as always with me and most of all his incredible musicianship, producing & nice guy skills.
Nat for  another awesome vocal performance and the infectious energy she always brings.
Top people are hard to find and I’m eternally grateful to have collaborated with so many on this app and look forward to another fruitful year creating great music with great people.
This Sound Society gives you ….

The Tower 

V1
She looked across the reservoir 
Where she stood for many  years 
The Cupid of this 2nd city
With romance marriage & tears 
And if wasn’t for the tower I wouldn’t be here right  now 
It where my parents eyes meet on a dance floor somehow 

Ch
Come on …let’s  meet at The Tower
What a time to be alive 
Come on …. Let’s meet at The Tower 
walk , bus, tram or drive 
Come on. Feel the power 
Welcome to the Tower

V2
To all them happy endings & tales of the reser  banks
This is our song we are singing to send love with a massive thanks 
She had Bowie, New Order, The Smiths, The Who just to name a few 
From the 50s, 60s, 70s,  80s 90s  what decade were  you 

Finish on a double chorus ..    


The Tower ~This Sound Society

The temptation to play a plinkity plink piano piece was there, and here it is.


Lean closer, lend an ear
Hear me out, this is our affair.

If I said to you, I apologize 
There are things I didn't say 
I told you I knew you
Would someday, walk away.

The reason I am pleading
Is for you and your happiness
Lean closer, lend an ear
Hear me out, this is our affair.

If I said to you, and you listened too
Then surely we could both agree 
From here on in, there's no way out
Since that is what I promised you.

Lean closer, lend an ear
Hear me out, that is why we’re here.     
  
If I said to you, and you listened too
Then surely we could both agree 
From here on in, there's no way out
Since that is what I promised you.

If I said to you, I apologize 
There are things I didn't say 
And the reason I am pleading
Is for you to go our way. 

Lean closer, lend an ear
Hear me out, this is our affair.

If I Said To You

Wayne Johnson
