New Random Lyrical Dribblings and Things

Well It has been a while since I have actually posted anything on this new blog of mine.  Unfortunately music is very quiet at the moment.  I have baaaaad RSI in my left arm and have to rest that arm for a while, it would seem I even have to rebuild the muscles.  So it looks like I will be out of action a while on the music front, which is a shame as I have a few ideas.  I am trying to start using keyboards but it just doesn't sound right to me.  I have been playing guitar 20 years and it's the instrument I write songs with so it's quite a bummer.

It could be worse, but I have other creative outlets at the moment luckily.  I may try to post some half finished recordings, I can still sing and play keyboards/glockenspiel/slide guitar!   Here be some snippets of stuff from my lyrics book...

They laugh at you but I’m enthralled by you
So hypnotised by beauty
This is my moment of triumph or my belly flop???
They sit and stare unfascinated by you
But I’m hypnotised by beauty

We are lost now and you never want to come back
I see you over there
I see you over there
Waiting for the answers I can’t give you
This is my despair
You’re everything I let down…
You’re everything I should let go…
Oh how confusion reigns inside my mind...
'Once you've hit rock bottom, the only way is up!!!'
Monday mornings do not care.
When did you fall out of love with me
Or were you in it just a fallacy? 

pressing the reset button - a clean slate is needed

I know a girl she won't see eye to eye with me
She ties up my words in knots and makes me hard to see
She’s lost to me and does not wish to be found
I never meant to lose her but how am I losing when we have already lost???


She's lost to me and doesn't want to ever come back 
I never meant to lose her but how am i losing when we are already lost  ?

Through stars we float in a space so close
So hypnotised by beauty
London is cold for me and you
This is the death of you and me

So hypnotised by beauty
The beauty that you possess is UNDENIABLE
The clock radio alarm awakens me... Back to the land of the living... My sleep walking commute...
DISTANT – DISTANCE


I would take you for all that you are warts in all and for when we fall

'What does the past matter when we could have a glorious future together?'
Electrum

If only i could find the right words
Waiting for your eyes to surrender



I am not a turncoat

But every thing i feel is unreal is unreal
You will take the blue pill and i will take the red pill
And we will wake up worlds apart we are worlds apart

I've said too much it doesn't add up anymore

Sing to me, a lullaby to ease the pain
Believe in me or I may disappear from view
Inside and beside their lies I would be
Sing to me


I think dickhead things when i am drunk


remember if i act like a dickhead it's only because i am crazy about you






Tired... Jaded... Where is my way out?






Till that moment you can't resist me no more I await


My broken heart rules over my head



She speaks to me in post it notes

You'd walk on broken glass for love but you won't walk towards me


Only my heart beats for my misery
I’m paying for the mistakes I swear I did not do
London smiles in the sun
And the moon smiles westernised and standardised
You are my ghost of Christmas diwali past
I am lost in neon light
This is the death of me and you
I meant EVERYTHING that fell out my mouth
I didn’t mean for it to happen but it did
Oh but I tried for us to be as friend, to be again
But I have lost you now and you don’t want to be found
London is cold for me and you, this is the death of you and me…
A snowflake lost in the dark
A tear that has been cried
The last ember of the spark
We walk tightrope lines between your heart and mine
So hypnotised by beauty
Does my charm exceed my insecurity???
I don’t expect much but whatever it is it seems too much
I am something but am I enough?
Let me in, let me in, and I’ll be all that you need
What am I chopped liver???
Waiting for the moment you will see as i do
She speaks to me in postit notes
I want to take away your pain and make it mine
You will never cry
