Living life outside the clouds

There's a storm coming up
without clouds in the sky
The sun is shining bright
so I wonder why

Why's the wind so violent
as the rain is on leave
as trees were standing silent
in a quiet summer breeze

The storm show's many faces
some angry some in pain
up close they are all smiling
mixed messages how insane

Nature is deceiving me
like human beings do
they try to get me down
but I don't have a clue

For all I know it is alright
my discussion with the rain
but lies do fall drop by drop
I just can not explain

The storm show's many faces
some angry some in pain
up close they are all smiling
mixed messages how insane

A laughing sun whispers
it all will become bright
but all I see is darkness
not even a little light

It seems the rhythm of my life
believing I did it right
receiving sunny answers
but the storm rules out of sight

The storm show's many faces
some angry some in pain
up close they are all smiling
mixed messages how insane

Maybe tomorrow it's gonna rain
maybe the sun is gonna shine
it doesn't really matter
loneliness will be fine

safely being out the way
not hearing any word
no lies no false appraisals
it's save although absurd

The storm show's many faces
some angry some in pain
up close they are all smiling
mixed messages how insane

Away from anything that breaths
except some plants and trees
makes it all much easier
I know my mind agrees

Living life outside the clouds
not excepting rainy days
keeping to myself and I
freedom comes in many ways

The storm show's many faces
some angry some in pain
up close they are all smiling
mixed messages how insane

The storm show's many faces
some angry some in pain
up close they are all smiling
mixed messages how insane

(lyrics for a bluezy song)

Compassion Lost

For those who try their best
but can't do better
For those walking slower than the rest
you know it doesn't matter

For those with burdens on their shoulders
carrying a heavy weight
who's body's fire smolders
your soul will compensate

the world became a dangerous place
there is no space for the human face
life became an achievement race
the way we act a big disgrace

love where have you gone
People what did we do
compassion why are you numb
I guess you're silent to

We know the modern liberal rules
demand that sickness is a crime
The world will never be a paradise
love never got the time

Health-care became big business
Cures and medicine a form of bribe
Your treatment in the hands of man in suits
an empty wallet is what they prescribe

the world became a dangerous place
there is no space for the human face
life became an achievement race
the way we act a big disgrace

love where have you gone
People what did we do
compassion why are you numb
I guess you're silent to

For those who's Mondays use up all the drive
and lac the talent to multi-task
For those being passive is a way to survive
hiding behind a laughing mask

For those who's brain can't handle chaos
simple structures are the way
For those who can't get their feelings across
your silence is okay

the world became a dangerous place
there is no space for the human face
life became an achievement race
the way we act a big disgrace

love where have you gone
People what did we do
compassion why are you numb
I guess you're silent to

For those who put the cattle on the stove
and wait for the water to steam
For they would forget about the tea
short term memory  a dream

For those with a weak heart in their chest
when limited energy is just a fact
Modern times are on a quest
Needing care not in ...... the contract

the world became a dangerous place
there is no space for the human face
life became an achievement race
the way we act a big disgrace

love where have you gone
People what did we do
compassion why are you numb
I guess you're silent to

The worst Christmas song ever, although....

Recorded on a cold and depressing afternoon at the Bluesbarn Studio.

Just Me, hot coffee, a pig-nose and a resonator guitar.

Silence

A Fucked-up World

On the land with plenty
the rains keep falling down
The soil lost all absorption
summer leafs turned brown

Streets are overflowing
with heartache and pain
New carton-box villages
this world is insane

We're living in a fucked-up world
a fucked-up world

The suits are getting richer
the rest just gets sick
Their grass 's getting greener
their wallets thick

The little people poorer
eating poisonous food
just broken down spirits
in a frown-away mood

We're living in a fucked-up world
a fucked-up world

So many places on fire
weapons payed for by the man
making money by the dead
delivered guns to the evil clan

Deceases getting spread
by people in a white gown
they already know the cure
another financial touchdown

We're living in a fucked-up world
a fucked up world

The man 's making statements
You go back to sleep
We've got it all covered
making an even bigger dust-heap

Now you just listen
listen to your priest
go fuck and make children
'cause the ones we used are deceased

We're living in a fucked-up world
a fucked-up world

Believe in your religion
grasp on to that thought
There's a hard waking up
when the truth is caught

There's no more escaping
in words and in songs
No planet to hold on
knowing to whom it belongs

We're living in a fucked-up world
a fucked-up world

There's no turning back
to times of freedom and wealth
They're steeling your life
messing up your health

You've lost all your rights
sticking your head in the sand
How-come you were silent
when the world came to an end

We're living on a fucked-up world
a fucked-up world

We're living in a fucked-up world
a fucked-up world
