Verse 1
They’re all buying guns
To take a shot at you
But you’re still smiling
Because you died a long time ago
Two bullets through your soul

Refrain 1
It’s live from Chicago
Let the camera roll 
It’s live from Chicago

Verse 2
When the morning breaks
The camera fades away
But you’re still smiling
Because you’re still standing tall
Two bullets through your soul

Refrain2
Let the camera roll 
It’s live from Chicago
How was I to know?
Two bullets through your soul
It's live from Chicago

outro
How was I to know?
It's live from Chicago....

Let the camera roll
It's live from Chicago
How was I to know?
Two bullets through your soul
It's live from Chicago
How was I to know?
Two bullets through your soul
Here in Chicago
How was I to know?
Two bullets through your soul
let the cameras roll
let the cameras roll
it's life in Chicago
it's life in Chicago

Two bullets through your soul
It's live from Chicago

THE RUSH
Written, Performed, Produced & Mastered
by Andrew Borderick Copyright 2021

THE RUSH

It has been almost 2 years since I heard a production made in a style completely unknown to me: https://soundcloud.com/tetsuo-dubs/tetsuo-senso. I know the creator personally. I asked him what he would say about making a metal version of the track, as I had ideas for processing...
He has supported the project! For many months (while the track was preserved on my hard drive) he encouraged me to release this song.
Today is finally the moment to release - after doing the last few touches these days. Thanks, TETSUO! :)https://soundcloud.com/tetsuo-dubs
This time too, my virtual band rushed to my aid - as I usually do with my compositions.
Produced by Val Akey.
Used and programmed VSTIs:
- Drums: Addictive Drums2;
- Bass: Broomstick Bass;
- Guitars: RealLPC + GuitarRig5.
- String Orchestra: Cytrus (FL Studio 20)
- Choir: DSK ChoirZ
Many thanks to Enrique Meseguer for the cover image! (Pixabay)

Release date: 21 April 2021

Sensitive Destruction

Para Lia - Kassandra

words and music by René Methner
mix and production: René Methner
mastering: Thomas Heimann-Trosien, TurnstyleMastering, Berlin

The background for the inspiration of course is Homer and the tales on the Trojan war. But Kassandra does not tell a story – it’s a kind of a painting with an ancient scenery or maybe just a sketch: Kassandra in front of the burning city. And it could be a modern painting. We are in a distance of more than 3.000 years to the plot of the ancient tales – and still mankind has Kassandras and tears in front of burning cities.

Working on Kassandra i had in mind from the beginning that Cindy will take the main voc in this song. So i wrote the harmonies and the song structure with that in mind and i love how she sings the song. Kassandra also includes a few notes played with a Greek Baglamas and helps the song to get a special note. This string instrument is the small sister of a Bouzouki. 

lyrics:
on sungod days in the morning dew
the tears of kings are just a few
meaningless rain drops

we keep that fire burning
until the tide is turning
and the ships are grounded

in the golden light of the afternoon
she is dancing like the queen of doom
she blinks into the sunlight

we keep that fire burning
until the tide is turning
we watch the flames rise higher
we keep that fire burning
until the tide is turning
we watch the flames rise higher
into the sky
into the sky

Music & Lyrics: Margareta Theorin

WE SING IT JUST FOR YOU

So much inside of you
what will become of it?
Will there be someone who
take it to their heart.

You and I are deeply touched
I hope that we can bring it out
in some kind of way.
We´re already on our way.

We sing it just for you
be ready for it now.
We take them one by one
instead of many at each time.

We give you a melody
and hope you find it good.
We only take the best of it
till next time, there´ll be more

Maggie Sunrise 1

We sing it just for you. 1171 ( 1994 ) Margareta Theorin-Eddy Mango ( Margareta )

Texte Français et Google traduction

LA POUDRE BLANCHE...

Il se jouait à la russe
Bravant sa roulette
Se cherchant des plus
En laissant les miettes.
Il écœurait de sentiments
Surtout pas de haine
Aux injustices seulement
En vivant dans la peine.

Il se prenait des interdits
Qui grilleraient son temps
Sans se trouver maudit
Pour rêver en plus grand.
Il traînait son ombre
La suivant par derrière
Les regards de ce monde
Pas bien fait pour lui plaire.

La poudre blanche, retrousser la manche
Et quand bien même, ceux qui en prennent
Il n’y aura plus, depuis le début
Aux artifices, que la fin de triste

Il mettait ses oeillères
Pour aller tout droit
En courant vers l’enfer
Qu’il espérait moins froid.
Ce n’est la peur au ventre
Qui le ferait partir
Aux ténèbres impatientes
Mais pourquoi vouloir en finir?

Il se riait des sorts
Dans tous leurs tirages
Taquinant la mort
Qu’elle vienne avant l’âge.
Dans les méandres des rues
Malfamées de racailles
Il s’était tout juste perdu
Mais fallait-il qu’il s’en aille?

La poudre blanche, retrousser la manche
Et quand bien même, ceux qui en prennent
Il n’y aura plus, depuis le début
Aux artifices, que la fin de triste,
Que la fin de triste.

Salut bien bas, adieu à toi.

WHITE POWDER

He was playing Russian
Braving his roulette
Looking for each other
By leaving the crumbs.
He was disgusted with feelings
Don’t you hate me
To injustices only
By living in pain.

He was taking prohibitions
That would blow his time
Without being cursed
To dream bigger.
He dragged his shadow
The next one from behind
The eyes of this world
Not good for her.

White powder, roll up the handle
And still, those who take it
There will be no more, from the beginning
To the artifices, that the end of sad

He wore his blinders
To go straight
Running to hell
That he hoped less cold.
It’s not fear in the belly
That would make him go
To the impatient darkness
But why do you want to end it?

He laughed at the spells
In all their prints
Teasing the death
Let her come before age.
In the meanders of the streets
Thugs of the street
He just got lost
But did he have to go?

White powder, roll up the handle
And still, those who take it
There will be no more, from the beginning
To the artifices, that the end of sad,
Only the end of sad.

Hello down, goodbye to you.

she says - don’t think, don’t move
what are you tryin' to prove?
just be you
she says - let it out, let it breathe
let it crawl out of the sleeve
and i know - all the colors, step by step
are blending with her spiderweb

my muse 
i pledge my soul to you

i'm a kind of a dorian gray
and i am faustian, by the way
as long as i feel you 
i am everything you want me to be

my muse 
i pledge my soul to you

Track 8 from the album "B Sides, Alternates and Other Songs" ......... a collection of 10 songs written or recorded during the making of my "For the Stars" album in 2019 but didn't make the album.......releasing one song monthly thru October 2020!

"For the Stars (alternate)" is the original version that I intended for my album of the same name. I was part way thru the recording and decided I wanted it in a different key so never went any further with this version. In hindsight, it was probably just fine in G. The final version (also on SoundCloud here: https://soundcloud.com/lenaloise/for-the-stars) was recorded in the key of A ....you decide!

ALL OF MY TRACKS ARE FREE TO DOWNLOAD direct from this page or at this link: lenaloise.bandcamp.com/music ........... CD's are available in the USA for the cost of postage at this link: lenaloise.bandcamp.com/merch

Twenty-one
you were hiding in makeup

All this time
we were taking the same path

just trying to make it last

One more time...

Tuesday night

ABOUT YOU BIG BIRD

There’s a smoky trail across the sky
Behind you big bird as you fly
I’m running waving both hands free
But my mommas come to capture me

My mom she’s got this thing you see
About you bird we don’t agree
She don’t like your fiery tail
She’s gonna capture me and hide away

Big bird flying across the sky
I don’t know you or your reasons why
Big bird do you come to play
Mommas got bad things to say 
About you Big Bird

We been here a thousand years
Momma says that you don’t care
Your fireworks that light the streets
Make houses fall to dust and heat

The baker man went yesterday
A puff of smoke, an empty tray
I kind of liked your flashing bomb
But Momma ranted all night long

About You Big Bird

"ANTICIPATING"

Five steps (each one with two parts) progressing along 3 minutes thru different styles: rock, psycho, pop, hard..., and finally back to the psychopoppy ones.

Letra / Lyrics:

No siempre he estado aquí (soy imperfecto) / I have not always been here (I am imperfect)

Cuando tengo frío, o tengo calor, / When I feel cold, or I feel hot,
cuando tropiezo, me quemo, o siento dolor… / when I stumble, I burn myself, or feel pain …

y  empiezo a pensar que no siempre he estado aquí, / and I start to think that I have not always been here,
y que todo en este mundo es ajeno a mí. / and that everything in this world is alien to me.

Pienso que este cuerpo / I think that this body
que me sirve para moverme / I use to move myself
no es todo lo perfecto que debiera. / is not as perfect as it had to.

Me siento extraño / I feel strange
donde tendría que estar a gusto, / where I should to be comfortable,
y me reconforto / and I feel better
cuando me relaciono bien con el mundo. / when I relate well to the world.

Empiezo a pensar en el tránsito; / I start to think about the passage;
que no siempre he estado ni estaré aquí; / that I have not always been nor will be here;
que mi vida es un entretenimiento / about my life being an entertainment
en el viaje a otro sitio. / along the trip to another place.

Y descubro lo profundo / And I discover the deepness
entre tanta superficialidad, / among so much superficialness,
si la meta de todo lo que hago / if the goal of everything I do
es comer y respirar, / is to eat and breathe,
¿qué clase de razón tengo en la cabeza? / what kind of reason do I have in my head?
¿qué soy yo dentro de este juego? / what am I within this game?

 descubro lo profundo / And I discover the deepness
entre tanta superficialidad, / among so much superficialness,
y me pongo a pensar, / and I start thinking,
y empiezo a pensar… / and I start to think …

y  empiezo a pensar que no siempre he estado aquí, / and I start to think that I have not always been here,
y que todo en este mundo es ajeno a mí. / and that everything in this world is alien to me.

Pienso que este cuerpo / I think that this body
que me sirve para moverme / I use to move myself
no es todo lo perfecto que debiera. / is not as perfect as it had to.

How(Lyric)

Well the Rain told the Water
that “I want to play, 
I wanna see the world
in a different way”

The Water said
with a little frown, 
“It sounds like you got
your head in the clouds”

“Why can’t I-
take a little bucket
and carve myself out?!”

“Calm down you’re
just not thinking
very clearly now.”

Then the Rain says,

“You don’t know me now.
You don’t know me now
at all.”

and the Rain says,

“You don’t know me now.
You don’t know me now
at all.”

So the Water
splashed and whirled
and waved,

“Maybe it’s best you go on your way”
Spat the rain out to the stones
“Maybe one day you’ll come home…”

So the rain soaked down into the ground
and stopped in a hard cold place

Then the Sun came around
and saw the Rain
broken into a million pieces

He said,
“Come with me,”
and pulled her to the sky
and sprinkled her back down
around for miles

Then soaked her up again

Over and over and over 
and over and over again

and the Rain says,

“Do you know me now?
Do you know me now
at all?

Even though I travel far
I still come on home to you

Over and over and over 
and over and over again

Do you know me now?
I’m soaked right up again

Over and over and over 
and over and over again”

HOW - with Weathered Hearts

Glen Carbon


I grew up in a little town
There was no king or crown
I was just a young boy
A small town in rural Illinois

Chorus:
Not much claim to fame
Glen Carbon was it’s name

Between Edwardsville 
and Collinsville
The ‘villes were where people went
Returned without the money they spent

Verse 2:
There were no signs or wines
The carbon came from mines
So many years ago
You had to drive so slow

A speed trap they would say
Many tickets given each day
That is life as I knew it
I’m not trying to misconstrue it

I used to play in Judy creek
It was a fun place to sneak

Verse 3:
Colonel Samuel Judy 
began this place
He wasn’t moody
He was quite an ace

From a military land grant
He planted many a plant
It was the land of Goshen
Full of active motion

To St. Louis it was close
You could go there for shows

But St. Louis was where big things happened
Sometimes more than what they bargained



Unused lyrical ideas:

It was a mining village
With a creek and hillage

Lyrics:
Catch me looking up when I feel down
Heart ice cold music too loud 
Said you was wanting something real now
You know that my heart is yours to steal now
Feet are on the edge
Messing with my head
Need something true instead
And I'll be just fine on my own
Head in the clouds but it's ice cold
Feet on the ground where the night go
Say no lies if you say so
Really don't know what you don't know
Head in the clouds but it's ice cold
Feet on the ground where the night go
Saying no lies if you say so
Really don't know what you don't know
