THE DIFFERENCE

IT'S WHAT YOU NAME "OKAY"
I DON'T FEEL THE SAME WAY
(i never feel the same way)
IT'S THE DIFFERENCE
THAT MAKES US PRAY
TO FIND ENOUGH 
OF WHAT WE 
CAN 
SHARE 
NEXT 
DAY

Created with Garageband and my voice :D

THE DIFFERENCE

My new song ‘Cistercian Grey’. This is a dreamy alternative folk track that I made with my acoustic guitar, an 80s synth keyboard (and a drum beat from the internet). I wrote, recorded and produced this track myself I hope you like it. Lately, I have been really enjoying making tracks that are a bit softer with less heavy production to really bring out the melodies and instrumentation. It’s funny, as I get more knowledgeable about production and more confident in my writing and recording, I actually want to add less elements to my songs; I guess it’s because I don’t feel the need to hide anything with lots of production and heavy sounds. Also, this gentle melody just didn’t require lots of other elements. Lyrically, it has lots of similar themes to many of my other songs; kinda dark and melancholic. Many of my new releases contain lyrics and metaphors that have been floating around in my head for years and this song is no exception. I hope you enjoy!

Lyrics:
Oh, once Cistercian grey
Smothered everything
It howled and bayed
But now that’s all gone away
Seasons they do change
Like crystal tidal waves

Shine your light if you may
Won’t turn the night into day
Still if you abide within me
We’ll get there by foul or folly

For you, boy it’s always you
That I turn to
Your Chartres blue
All misery you will undo
I know it is true
Like Christ born anew

Reach your hands in devotion
Will never placate the ocean
Still we take our idle notions
And bound down the path we have chosen

As sure as green grass grows
As sure as high winds blow
I will with you go
In the rich black of the crows

And pure white of the snow
The sweetness of the rose

The night traffic on the road
Like a stream of blood and gold
Only Heaven knows
He’s a true sight to behold
Bright like marigolds
Handsome, fair and bold

Down in the ashen valley
That is where you will find me
By the gated cemetery
Clutching at memories of him

As sure as green grass grows
As sure as high winds blow
I will with you go
In the rich black of the crows
And pure white of the snow
The sweetness of the rose

Yeah as sure as green grass grows
As sure as high winds blow
I will with you go
In the rich black of the crows
And pure white of the snow
The sweetness of the rose

Super stoked to be part of a collab with these two greats https://soundcloud.com/lola-lofi @lolademo  & @headcharge777 Big thanks to Erika & Demetri for joining me on this one! Respect, Mark

The Colour of Our Love is Black and Blue

It must be easy to be you
You don't get hurt
Nothing gets through
You pull my hair and don't let go
I punch you hard but it doesn't show

It's over and you know it's true
The colour of our love is black and blue

And it's all my fault that I let you stop me from breathing
It's not up to you to let me go
Cause I'm already leaving

I never thought I could hate you
Hate who you are
Hate what you do
I could explode and kill you
Or you could kill me before I do

It's over and you know it's true
The colour of our love is black and blue

"Softly"

https://soundcloud.com/bcough
https://soundcloud.com/wild-christopher-lyrics

You don’t speak
Often what you feel
You say you don’t need
Reassurance anymore

I whisper sweet nothings
Anyway
To help you heal
All the wounds from the day

You try to think
You don’t need anyone
But you’re always falling
Falling for the one
That'll hold you softly
Softly

You hold on 
To your hard outer shell
I know you’re been hurt
When you allowed yourself
To feel
To feel

You try to think
You don’t need anyone
But you’re always falling
Falling for the one
That’ll hold you softly

Don’t worry baby
I’ll hold you softly

“Sound of Rain”

@wild-christopher-lyrics

I love the sound of rain
Wash me away

This old world
Grit and dirt
This old world
For what it’s worth

It rips 
It pulls
It jerks

This old world
What’s it worth?

I love the sound of rain

I hear the sound of children’s voices
I hear their joyous screams
I hear the water as it splashes
I hear the roll of the stream

I love the sound of rain

If you listen closely you will hear
The whisper of your soul
If your heart is open
You can be made whole

I love the sound of rain
I love the sound of rain
Wash me away
Wash me away

Lyrics:

Dance With Me

I'm on fire
I'll take you higher

I've been dreaming
of a girl like you
to come along
make me feel like new
you arrive in my 
darkest hour
fill my heart 
with desire
You looked at me 
and now I'm on fire
you looked at me
and now I'll take you higher
You looked at me 
and now I'm on fire
you looked at me
and now your desire
All my life 
I've been waiting 
for a girl like you
to start a new
I promise you 
I'll never let go
ahhh
I've been waiting 
for a girl like you
to start a new
I promise you 
I'll never let go
ahhh


Additional Vocals of Laurie Webb

no I will not soon forget
the way you came in unannounced
as though you read my mind
as if I had said it to you
won't you dance with me
as close as you want to be

We all take some time
To settle on in
Get comfy in our own skin

We try to be cool
We try to out shine
We like to think this world is mine
All mine

Well now I’m a little bit older
I find it’s all right
To just be me
And you be you

I might not be a rock star
Might not ever go too far 
From this moment with you

But no matter how far I travel
I’m sliding into my comfortable shoes
My comfortable shoes

If I’m not a rock star
In my comfortable shoes
Don’t worry
If that’s the truth
I won’t sing the blues
As long as I can sing to you
To you

On the front porch
Swinging with you
Knowing life’s secret truths
It’s the little things

Laughter and loving
Caring and hugging 
Holding on to you
And sliding into my comfortable shoes
My comfortable shoes

“Change A Thing” (The Facebook Song)

Music by https://soundcloud.com/digital-opium
Lyrics and vocals by https://soundcloud.com/wild-christopher-lyrics

I click on a page
See a new face
You got a new bae

I shouldn’t care
We both never dare
To talk about those days

Through all of this
There is you
There is real 
There’s the truth

The truth

You know it
I know it
But it doesn’t change a thing

You know it
I know it
But it doesn’t change a thing

Yesterday is not a place
Not a place to stay
Yesterday never fades away

I wonder why 
I wonder why 
We can never say goodbye

You know it
I know it
But it doesn’t change a thing

You know it
I know it
But it doesn’t change a thing

We keep our distance
We share our friends
But I have to stay away
Or we’ll start again

You know it
I know it
But it doesn’t change a thing

I was born in a cold dark country
and my mind is full of songs
Never met someone really happy
and my fingers are raw

I grew up in the mist of fancy
and my heart is full of songs
I´ve never known where my life is falling
and my eyes are green and cold.

In this moment I hope
That past is not a slab inside me
To make way for the child that was lost

I look for my roots
in this night of realities
walking the moors of my room

I was born in a cold dark country
and my mind is full of songs
Never met someone really sad
and my feelings are strong

I grew up in the mist of fancy
and my heart is full of songs
I´ve never known where my life is falling
and my eyes are green and cold.

In this moment I hope
that past is not a slab inside me
to make way for the child that was lost

I look for my roots
in this night of realities
walking the moors of my room

I Was Born In A Cold Dark Country ( ESM final mix )
