So many people that put up with bad behavior, being scorned and ridiculed and still find a way to smile and make the rest of us feel better. This song is for all of you.

This is based on the same drum track as DystOpia. Stoney sent a drum track that eventually became two different tracks - one more grungy (DystOpia) and this one a little more organ heavy. I asked Eric to come up with something different for this tune and boy did he deliver the goods.

TOUGH AS NAILS

Tough as nails
You fall down
Tough as nails
You rise again
Tough as nails
Your body a scar
Your spirit, your soul, your mind
It’s too hard to find
The time, the peace, the will
You reach down deep
You take a leap
You’re tough as nails
You’re tough as nails

Through the thick and thin
Through the good times and bad times
It all fades away
Through the quips and shame
The looks and sighs
Fade away….

Tough as nails
You rise again
Tough as nails 
You fall down
Gentle soul
You lift us up
Kind heart 
Never let us down
The sorrow, the sadness and pain
Washed away….
Your touch and your smile
Your smile
You’re tough as nails

Through the thick and thin
Through the good times and bad times
It all fades away
Through the quips and shame
The looks and sighs
Fade away….

And they just can’t see
And they don’t understand
They don’t understand you at all

And they just can’t see
And they don’t understand
They don’t understand you at all

Fade away, fade away, fade away…..

Tough As Nails

Tough As Nails (Fade Away) | The Boilerman 🎸

With Pat's passing, I wanted to post this version of Ode with us doing a little brainstorming on the creation of the song. 
I witnessed a miracle--at least I would call it that.  A beloved rose that was a regular bloomer(pictured) fell victim to the incredibly harsh cold spell we had in February of 2021.  By April when the rest of the roses were waking up, this one had not a sign of life in it, just a brown stump.  I watered, and fed, and waited, and waited.  Nothing.  I dug out the stump.   For Mothers' Day my daughter had bought a rose to replace the one that had perished...or so I thought.  Within a week of planting the new one, the old one put out a shoot just a foot away.  I guess the digging, watering, etc for the new rose stimulated some remaining root of the old.  It has since received lots of love and care, and has at least a half-dozen buds ready to bloom in a couple of weeks.  So this is an ode; to a beloved rose and all things miraculous.  
Special thanks to Pat Howell for the initial inspiration and his fine musicianship and sweet additions with mandolin and octave.  Please check out his page for more fine music @patrick-howell-786748109

Ode To A Rose (with new intro and outro 7/23/23)

This is an arrangement using commercially available sound packs, samples, and loops. A lot of tweaks and modifications. (Seemingly endless!) I did not create the original samples myself, but I did make the selections, and the arrangement, mix and mastering are all uniquely produced by SOS. Hope you enjoy, be happy, and dance!

Lyrics:
We´re still there
None of us ran away
After dark
There was another day
And we dive 
One level deeper
Yeah we enter
Another dimension
Yes we are 
Closer than ever
We step through 
This portal together
And we dive
One level deeper...
Yeah we enter another dimension
