Brother
My brow is quivering, filled with light of angels
But sometimes in the night, I feel a sense of danger
The past comes in haunted dreams
A figure from my childhood
The menace of a thousand nights
Spent in shivering silence
You were meant to be my light
Brother you weren’t meant to fight
You were supposed to protect me then
Brother, karma’s got its revenge
As I slept, you kicked my bones
I shivered there, a little child
You were meant to be my friend
Oh brother, you were meant to defend
The soul it prays to be made whole
But life it cuts just like a knife

Patriot Song
The Thames does flow inside my soul
I’ll fill it up with rusted gold
A patriot cry, a wizened wire,
I won’t be slipped back into lies
A wounded tree, an empty field, a meandering river and a seal
A spike they pinned inside a weir, a turtle it swam out from under here
Love is old this creature’s cold
What we must do is break the mold
A faded cry, a distant sigh, I wrote a poem back in time
I feel the streets, they talk to me
Loaded up, I don’t feel my feet
The stems they grow, the river flows
Destiny changes all we know
Our memories fade, they dance away, into a celluloid decay
How far we came, I dived to our shame
A brilliant mind, a wasted decline
And love may be open, your flag may be broken
Exposed all your feelings, my heart off the ceiling
And the soul may order
And the mind’s disorder
The hollowest feeling
This city is gleaming

Hollow

I won't love the roots twisted under your feet
A bed of crusty thorns swept beneath the sea
Fallen cruel love, time will breed the dove
Owls eat toxic dust, I won't need a drug
Fallen, taken, sparks flow in time and the load I went through
I'm hollow like the sun, burning everyone
The trees they drop their leaves, in my darkened dreams
Propagate your love, my teeth are aching now
Calling out your thoughts
Subtle and unbought
Fallen, broken, time goes so slow I'm in reverse mode of my flow

Holy holy night

When the silence is sombre, I wake up in my sleep
And the glass is empty, my ceiling has a leak
You may say you may do, you may feel my song
Cos I wake at 4 am to feed your soul
I may fall
Fire burns through my heart, through my body and soul
Causing me to erupt my fiery goals
And I burn
It's a lonely lonely night when the moon is out of sight
The stars are dripping like it's a holy holy night
Talk to me girl cos I've fallen for your style
Love it burns so deep it makes us turn
And I wake from my slumber
People on the streets
And a youthful wonder
Love is all we need

Noir & Jazz & Dark & Slow...

A cinematic sadness haunts the arrangements. A new age jazz club feel. The smokey sax glides through the atmosphere. Mischief lurks in the wings. I bet Nick Cave is tuning into this whilst inhaling a pack of cigarettes!!
