Yes, It’s That Time Again—Time to Dance: Better Left Unsaid

Dance – I hope that’s not a misleading word in the title. Although this features some of the usual angst and melancholy you can expect from a p.m.warner track, it’s set to 128 BPM so you can dance – maybe with tears in your eyes. (Apologies to Ultravox – my god they were the best).

Anyway, presenting, Better Left Unsaid. Sometimes there are just no words to make things better.

Better Left Unsaid

All these things that

Are

Better left unsaid

 

This open door

An invitation to explore

The abyss there

Never easy to ignore

There’s a space without stars dancing in the night

Tumbling down

Getting lost without a light

 

These are things I’ve done

I’ve seen it all before

Feels like I’m struggling

Far away from shore

 

All these things that

Are

Better left unsaid

 

It always stings

To visit images

And sifting through

These old explanations

Night machinations return knocking on the door

Sinking low

Back to where I was before

 

Now all these things they’ve said

They’re already in mind

With nothing else to say

Try leaving them behind

(Time to leave them all behind)

 

All these things that are

Better left unsaid

 

There’s nothing else to say

It’s better left unsaid.

Electronic Dance Track: “Daybreak”

This electronic dance track sat in a folder for awhile. I returned to it after I accidentally heard a draft I had left on my phone. Some may say I should have left it there. However, I dusted this baby off, reworked it and let it run.

There are parts I really like here, there’s also parts that could be better. As an electronic dance number, I really like when it opens up on the second half of the opening verses. After that, I get lost in the details and end up missing the focus at times.

But there’s something there and I went for it. I also tweaked the tempo from 125 to 128bpm. See what you think.

Daybreak

I’m staring at the sun

Thinking of all the things we’ve done

Waiting for the rain

Expecting to feel pain

 

While it’s dark before the dawn

Must not know what’s going on

If you’re feeling far away

I’m asking you to stay

 

WhatX3 have we done

Have we wanted to become

Do you say

Or does this all get thrown away

 

I have a question

 

Looking at this wrong

We were standing all along

Looking for a way

It’s time for moving on

 

WhatX3 have we done

Have we wanted to become

Have we said

Is this the world we created

 

Where do we go

What does the open future hold

What do you say

Is this the break of a new day

 

I had a question

Where was the sun

I had my doubts then

And now daybreak here it comes

 

I had a question

 

From the Music Archives: “Save Another Song”

More music!

Reviewing the SoundCloud music library and realized I had never posted one of my first song efforts since I decided to start sharing what I was doing publicly.

Called “Save Another Song,” I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics

Save Another Song

I’m standing by an open door

Heard someone say we’re through

There’s whispers that we’re over now

Not believing they are true

 

Beats of thoughts come raining down

Mind is racing far too fast

Next breath seems to disappear

And the moment doesn’t last

 

Here

Now

This is how we feel

Here

Now

This is who we are

 

I let you slip by way too soon

Your heart’s the perfect way

I’m living in the moment now

Praying you will stay

 

Here

Now

This is how we feel

Here

Now

This is who we are

New Song: The Calling

Well… this one is interesting. I’m not quite sure what to think so I’ll just post it for you to listen to and leave it at that. Lyrics are below. In the future, I’ll add Bandcamp to the platforms used. Nothing wrong with Soundcloud or ReverbNation, just interested in seeing how it works in comparison.

Other recent songs include:

Hold On

Satellite

Turn the Music On

and an older, but one of my favorites, Put it Down

Another night outside a muted scene

Ringing crowds that fade to gray

Strain to hear above these lonely lies

Unfiltered love you dared to dream

 

Breathless moments as they drift away

Lost in heaven’s open skies

In the still, a distant siren’s call

When solace fades, you hear it say

 

Just remember we’re all broken

You can always call on me

When your love is like the ocean

The current sweeps you out to sea

 

The quiet moment where you felt alone

Now you’re striving for your dreams

But silence lingers on so patiently

The darkest moments pull the seams

 

But your love is like an ocean

Your fears have drowned in deeper seas

Anytime that you felt broken

You could always call on me

 

Remember your love is like an ocean

The fears belong in deeper seas

And anytime that you feel broken

You can always call on me

Lyrics:

Alone but not alone with an old friend

Turning pages reading to the end

Reminded of the time that’s slipping by

And memories of things best left unsaid

Still looking up and staring at the sky

The stars are sparkling, singing lullabies

They’re burning through the clouds that have no end

And satellites are slowly drifting in

But the city holds a torch for you tonight

And your promises in time you’ll hold on tight

Were these the years that never said goodbye?

Can’t be the same ones passing through the night

When the loneliness begins to settle in

Remembering the street lights at 3AM

But I’m hoping for the skies to clear tonight

So far below the blinking satellites

And the city lights reflecting in your eyes

As we’re looking out the windows of our lives

But I’m holding out some hope for you tonight

If it comes for you, well promise hold on tight

And the city is a blinking satellite

Never let it go when it seems right
