A guitar instrumental inspired by the energy of spring. The song is in A major a bright and warm key.
When I was composing the song I was filled with the energy of early spring and guitars sounds of the 70s.
In Sheol, the peace it gave
In Sheol the peace it gave to me
Return to the abyss, return to the abyss quite soon, quite soon
Never Sleep, always tired, lay in bed and let the day go by
Batteries low, can’t recharge, lay in bed and let the day go by
The void is peace and quite,
The void is peace and quite the joy
To rest and feel the breeze
To rest and feel the breeze. For years for years
Never Sleep, always tired, lay in bed and let the day go by
Batteries low, can’t recharge, lay in bed and let the day go by
Theres something in the air
In the air to see
Theres something I can feel
I can feel it can you feel it, here its true
Karma wont let you get away
Never will it slip away
You can’t escape it, can’t evade it anymore
It might take years but it will show
If you run your are to slow
You can’t escape it, can’t evade it, can’t outrun it, anymore
Theres something going wrong
Going wrong at sea
I guess it wont be long
I can feel it can you feel it here its true
Karma wont let you get away
Never will it slip away
You can’t escape it, can’t evade it, anymore
It might take years but it will show
If you run your are to slow
You can’t escape it, can’t evade it, can’t outrun it, anymore
Don’t hold it in
Please don’t cave it
We’ll find a way to win
Karma wont let you get away
Never will it slip away
You can’t escape it, can’t evade it, anymore
It might take years but it will show
If you run your are to slow
You can’t escape it, can’t evade it, can’t outrun it, anymore
You said you’re unhappy
Even though you had the fame
But you can find fame is
awfully empty if
You don’t have someone too
Share all the good times with
You said you’re unhappy
Even though you had the fame
Ohh Where Is The Love
So many find fame is
awfully empty if
You don’t have someone too
Share all the good times with
Ohh Where Is The Love
Where Is The Love, I don’t see it here Today
Where Is The Love, I don’t see that much today
See it here today (d, d, e, e, a)
You said you’re unhappy
Even though you had the fame
But life can be better
Do you really need the fame
Planned from the Start
INFO
A song inspired by the depiction of romance in 1950s films. At the end of the film romance usually blossomed, I wanted to explore another avenue. This is a song of the dreams of a young man who wanted to be married with children and have domestic bliss, but no matter what he tried it never worked. There was always something in the way. He started thinking it was fate and planned from the start,
I am a big fan of the jazz standards of the past and wanted write in that vein.

In memory of an Uncle.
The True Love Shanty
INFO
She was his love but he had to give away
He was so tired, but he hoped that love would stay
He had a plan and a marriage in his mind
He looked around but could not find
All of his life he struggled with a curse for years
She was his love but he had to give away
He was so tired, but he hoped that love would stay
He had a plan and a marriage in his mind
He looked around but could not find
All of his life he struggled with a curse
Set in the past, if he moves he makes it worse
All of his life he struggled with a curse for years
Cus he knows he won’t ever get a break, life can be cruel
That’s nature’s rule

In memory of an Uncle.
The universe says
Collect the data time to leave
What is this pressure
Using the correct time
Can you find ascension
Defeat in the cosmos
Numbers will show the way to fall
Can you be righteous
Symbols which show the way
Can you find ascension x 2
Ascension x 2
Ascension
Struggle with fatigue
Tiredness has me all the time
Can you find the need
Sleepiness takes it all
Can you find ascension
The karma’s all around years later seems to take effect
No matter what you try you can’t deflect
It aims, and fires. Theres nothing you can do (B)
Locked in and fires theres nothing you can do (B)
When it’s noticed you (D)
Theres nothing you can do (E)
You’r ll never get away because it seams to be a law
It has to even out that is I am sure
It aims, and fires. Theres nothing you can do
Locked in and fires theres nothing you can do (D)
Theres nothing you can do
When its onto you
Theres nothing you can do
When it’s noticed you
It aims, and fires. Theres nothing you can do
Locked in and fires theres nothing you can do
Theres nothing you can do
Everyday you tried you’re best
Everyday they always put you to the test
All the days you tried so hard
All the days you couldn’t see you went to far
I Know that they
Was it me I couldn’t cope
After all I said they wasn’t any hope
I Know that they
Will take away
So you can’t stay, but thats ok
Many years have come to pass
Was it this life time or time before the last
I Know that they
Will take away
Will take away
So you can’t stay, but thats ok
I Know that they
Will take away
Will take away
So you can’t stay, but thats ok
Now I am stranded far away
Now I am stranded far away
I lie it’s not ok
We just want to know
We just want to know what’s gone wrong
Taking over thoughts of the land, yeah
I Don’t Mind, I Do
I Don’t Mind, I Do
The method is revealed
The method is revealed of the plan
Taking over thoughts of the land, yeah
I Don’t Mind, I Do
I Don’t Mind, I Do
Look at what might lie ahead, lie ahead, what’s not said
Everyone should know
4th industrial
4th industrial going on
Taking over thoughts of the land, yeah
Don’t Mind, I Do
I Don’t Mind, I Do
Look at what might lie ahead, lie ahead, what’s not said
Look at what might lie ahead, lie ahead, what’s not said
Everyone should know
Look at what might lie ahead, lie ahead, what’s not said
Look at what might lie ahead, lie ahead, what’s not said
Everyone should know
Preparing for the show
Making sure that all the eyes are on you
How can you stand out
Stand out from the crowd
What is left to do
Have to give some more
Take it to some levels never seen
Lose part of your soul
The part that keeps you sane
hide behind the sheen
Behind
Capture, capture this moment now
Don’t slip, don’t slide, don’t fear don’t let it show
Let it show
Saturated space,
there is not much room to let you breath
You start to feel worn out,
Worn out from that world
plan a way to leave,
Capture capture this moment now
Don’t slip, don’t slide, don’t fear don’t let it show
Let it show
Feel in love with a dream
Then it fell apart
I dunno it seams to be
Walk away, find some peace, go against the grain
With this life this way it seems to be.
Capture capture this moment now
Don’t slip, don’t slide, don’t fear don’t let it show
Let it show
“This smoking collection of driving, guitar-centric cues – including instrumental grooves as well as songs – brings a touch of nostalgia with a poetic nod to early progressive rock with ardent, anthemic choruses and serious guitar shredding compliments of Andrew Van Garratt.”
