AB Playlist 094 Part 1

A big thank you to Jeff Roberts and Andrew Borderick for playing on....."Just a Boy".

This sad and devastating local story has been on my mind for a long time.... I'm reminded about this tragedy nearly everyday as I run along the Mississippi Blvd and see the memorial.

Verse 1
You move like a summer breeze
There's whistling in the trees
You're always on my mind
You were just a boy
Don't leave me alone

Refrain 1 - instrumental and hum

Verse 2
You know I hate Christmas Eve
It brings me to my knees 
You're always on my mind
You were just a boy
You were just a boy

Refrain
How they took your life
What a senseless crime

Verse 3
You said you were going for a ride
But I didn't say goodbye
You're always on my mind
Don't leave me alone!

Refrain
Well they took your life 
by surprise
Such a senseless crime
Such a senseless crime

Verse4
And After all this time
I can't heal
and baby sometimes I can't feel....

Refrain
Yeah they took your life
Yeah they took your life
Such a senseless crime
Such a senseless crime
How they took your life
How they took your life
Such a senseless crime
Such a senseless crime
How they took your life

outro
You move like the summer breeze
and I hear you whistling in the trees....

Just a boy (ft. Jeff Roberts and Andrew Borderick)

Coccon Castle(demo)

I deleted this one earlier this year for whatever reason. But It's here to stay now.

Well it's a dud, caught in the middle of I know you should
You said you would, not counting stitches at the end of it
And there you go, there you go
It's just for show, it's just for show
--------------------------------------------------------
And if I say tomorrow, I'm burning down a bridge
You see the flames of sorrow and breathe the ashes
Cause' it's a dud, ah held on when you knew you could
You lost your foot, ah and fell from where you stood
From where you stood
--------------------------------------------------------
Well, in a nutshell, you're everything I thought you were
And standing sun, toss it in and let it burn
And there you go, there you go
It's just for show, it's just for show
--------------------------------------------------------
And if I say tomorrow, I'm burning down a bridge
You see the flames of sorrow and breathe the ashes
Cause' it's a dud, ah held on when you knew you could
You lost your foot, ah and fell from where you stood
From where you stood

Garden Of A Thousand Candles

In the garden of a thousand candles
Dreams awake you
Silently stare at the walls
Gold adorns you
Fantastical colours
Dreams await you
Lead where you dare

In a little field beyond Granton Meadows
There's a spot of heaven under yonder tree
Step aboard my time machine 
The future looks a silent Spring
Listen to the spirits come walk with me

Look around there were trees there were fields
Seems so serene beyond finite ideals
What happened to the simplest of times?
Blood, fire and steel
The old ways die
The old ways die

In the garden of a thousand candles
Dreams await you
Silently stare at the walls
Gold adorns you
Fantastical colors
Dreams awake you 
Lead where you dare

Over and over dreams falling over
Over and over lead where you dare

Lyrics by Bill White 2/5/22

Dedicated to the memory of Jeanne Towne

Street Corner Angel (Feat. Bill White)

Now available on Bandcamp as a Single!

https://archmagemusic.bandcamp.com/album/side-step-dimensions-single

An experimental synth pop love story about a couple that ended up finding each other by travelling through dimensions and falling deeply in love.

Lyrics and singing are by Masha.

Art by our friend Midnight On Mars, here's his website: https://www.deviantart.com/midnight-on-mars

Lyrics:

Have I actually side stepped 
Through some strange dimensions?
Unaware, travelling through rifts in time
Without directions?

It would sure explain some things
Like pure perfection timings
For instance how we met,
What predetermined paths were set?

When my universe collided with your own,
Our introduction was intense
I wondered if you were my clone
Cause only you make this much sense

Yours is the voice 
That reached out to my soul
Falling in love with you wasn’t a choice
It was just inevitable

Regardless of reality
Still feeling so unreal
I’ve found a realm of quality
You are the real deal

But had there been any distraction
There may have been no interaction 
We never would have met that way 
That blows my mind, I'm now your fiancée

If circumstances altered,
The meeting would have faltered

It makes me wonder: how many of me did not meet one of you?

If I’m in the 
Best timeline
And I believe 
That’s credible
You’re by my side
Though realms collide
To make that possible

A note from Masha: "I'm interested in singing this in other languages as well such as German, Italian, Japanese, and French. If you would like to translate this for us, please send us a message or email."

A project that attempts neutral ground with everyone. Trying to put the world situation into a song. Still working on the lyrics, any suggestions would be considered. Will post the full production soon, hopefully.

Les Vacances.

based on the poem "song: how sweet I roam'd from field to field" by william blake

I tasted all the summer's pride, 
'Till I the prince of love beheld, 
Who in the sunny beams did glide!
He shew'd me lilies for my hair, 
And blushing roses for my brow; 
He led me through his gardens fair

He caught me in his silken net, 
And shut me in his golden cage. 
He loves to sit and hear me sing
How sweet I roam'd from field to field, 
And tasted all the summer's pride, 
'Till I the prince of love beheld, 
Who in the sunny beams did glide!

First track from my new Anonymous project Autjoy.
GOLD has a experimental beat arrangement. 

A mix of spoken word and singing vocals delivers my exploration of what it means to be neurodivergent. 

GOLD will appear on my new Album out on 5/5/2023 on Bandcamp.


GOLD   https://autjoy.bandcamp.com/album/gold


I feel like I am trespassing on solid ground 
Too long have I just been floating around gathering beats subconsciously tuning in the reverberations and details and the patterns of your 
Words
The pulsating light from the fluorescent tubes abuses my senses along with the background hum
I walk about numb with psychic blinkers on trying to ignore the glare from the
Sun
I get multiple interpretations of expressions and instructions so I try to follow your flow 
I want to know so I carry out my own private investigation of your 
Soul

I exist and feel the twist
Push and pull 
I get the gist
Analyse the hows and whys 
I just don’t think like you

Can’t do the things the way you do
Got my quirks and reasons too
Analyse the lows and highs 
And all that’s in-between

Emotions strike I ride the rush 
It’s almost like I feel too much 
Analyse the truth and lies 
Arrive at my own  view 

I need clarification to make sure I know what it is you’re talking about 
I could’ve zoned out I’m not being rude but the first thing you said was really interesting but I think you’ve moved
On
Its ok I always frown don’t worry about it it’s where I hold my attention
Anyway you keep changing the subject and it’s a bit Intense 
I don’t think my thoughts are matching my
Face 
You got emotional in what seems like a negative way 
It’s like a black hole I need to escape from I’m shutting down on some kind of overload 
I can’t process your information and the energy 
Hurts

I exist and feel the twist
Push and pull 
I get the gist
Analyse the hows and whys 
I just don’t think like you

Can’t do the things the way you do
Got my quirks and reasons too
Analyse the lows and highs 
And all that’s in-between

Emotions strike I ride the rush 
It’s almost like I feel too much 
Analyse the truth and lies 
Arrive at my own view
