See Ya In Syria?

Posted on August 30, 2013September 4, 2013 by admin

Child Casualties Caused by Syria Gas Attack

LYRICS
Aghast! Shame shelling with a gas
Kill all children by chemical

Guess I won’t see ya
In Syria
Seriously a tragedy in Syria

Seems there’s no regime
Any less mean
World watches in error
The reign of terror

Guess I won’t see ya
In Syria
Seriously a tragedy in Syria

Bombarding babies like Barbarians
Severity to civility… no humanitarians

Guess I won’t see ya
In Syria
Seriously a tragedy in Syria

A, B, C, D… it’s killing me
Baa, baa black creep… cause to weep
Twinkle, twinkle little star… hopes dashed… helps so far

Blown Away

Songwriting Under the Boardwalk in Atlantic City

LYRICS
There’s a wind blowing in
Off of the sea
And, it’s blowing me
Away… hey, hey!

There’s a wind blowing in
Off of the sea
It’s talking to me
Hear it say….

There’s an escape we can take
You know… we can go below…
We can talk
Under the boardwalk

We’ll ascend… blowing up
Down by the sea
Yup, we’re blowing up
And, away… hey!

Where there’s a wind
Blowin’ in
Up against the skin
Listen to the voice within
Hey, hey! Blown away

Change Is Needed

Posted on August 28, 2013September 4, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Though he probably needs it more than me
He decided to give and be
Though he probably needs it more than me
He decided to give and set us free

Change is needed
Change is needed

Take a look around. You can’t help but see
Starvation and poverty
Take a look around. You can’t help but see
People suffering in misery

Change is needed
Change is needed

Your charity is appreciated
Helping others get liberated
Your charity is appreciated
A helping hand is underrated

Change is needed
Change is needed

Pig let

Posted on August 27, 2013September 4, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Does anybody care that it isn’t fair
Sometimes somebody’s gotta say
It really shouldn’t be this way

The police lying about their crimes
While they are trying to silence mimes
It really shouldn’t be this way

So you want to start over
Do it all over again
Push reset without regret
It really shouldn’t be this way

So, It really shouldn’t be this way
We hoped to never see this day
When people enjoy causing dismay
It really shouldn’t be this way

Emergency Eject

Posted on August 27, 2013September 4, 2013 by admin

Songwriting in the Park, Chester County, Pennsylvania

LYRICS
What did you expect
Emergency eject?

It keeps on coming
You know it keeps on coming

Why do they reject
The real suspect?

It keeps on coming
You know it keeps on coming

Humankind’s neglect
Of the object

It keeps on coming
You know it keeps on coming

If you fall, just call
If you stumble, tumble or fumble the ball
Anything at all

LYRICS
Sometimes all you need is some good notes
When words fail, music sparks
Keep strumming 88

Let’s go
Into the flow

And, a picture tells a thousand words
Making sense of all the absurds

Sometimes all you need are some good notes
Hark! Music spark… let’s sail
Strumming, humming… it’s not too late

Let’s go
Into the flow

Rough And Tumble

Posted on February 27, 2013February 27, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Are you rough and tumble
’cause the boys want to rumble
Are you tough and nimble
They want to bust your bubble
A-ha

Ain’t trying to find trouble tonight
Just trying to run to broad daylight
Don’t want your trouble… Don’t want to fight
We’ll watch you stumble
While we choose flight

Chorus

Ain’t trying to find trouble tonight
Just trying to run to broad daylight
Don’t want your trouble… don’t want your blight
We’ll watch you crumble
While we choose in-sight

Just In Time

Posted on February 26, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
What you see
Let it be

The seven seals
Were unsealed
The tusks
Untusked
The opening to the abyss
Among us
And, now we cause all the fuss

I guess it was the fuss
Because of the mess
I must confess
There should be a fuss about the mess caused by us
It’s not that you need to be a ruckus scientist
Or some sort-of brain surgeon… or even journalist
Trying to get a grasp on this reality TV that is thee… me

Let it be that what you see
Is the fusion
Of reality with your dream

Over Hill And Over Dale

Posted on February 26, 2013February 26, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Over hill… over dale

You’ll never ever fail
Over hill. Over dale.
You’ll never ever fail
As long as you’re on the trail

Toward the least
Not the beast

In the long run (fun)
In the end (the message you send)
Over hill… over dale
Set sail
For your dream
And, it will seem

Over hill
Over dale
Over hill
Overdrive

You’re alive
If you strive
You can make what seems
Your dreams
A reality of your mortality
Make it the stage
Make it the moving picture production show
Make it strive and thrive while you’re alive

Over hill… over rough terrain…
What of you will remain?

Together Alone

Posted on February 26, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
The more we grow together
The more we need to stand alone
Maintain our identity
Refrain
Remain a strain

The more we grow together
The more we need to concede
A separate seed
For heredity we need identity
From a real gene pool
If we want the continuum
Together
Alone

Tomorrow the future will be
You’ll see
Together we grow alone

This carpet of grass
Time will pass
Our roots intertwine
And, we come to find
That we’re individual blades of grass
And, together we can harness

Dance Of Life

Posted on February 26, 2013February 26, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
If you start to doubt
Know that help is on its way
If you feel left out
Know you’ll see a better day

Chorus
We all break-out in the dance of life
Play guitar, fiddle or fife
We all break out in the dance of life
Love passes… like butter and a hot knife

Don’t part with devout
It really helps if you pray
Don’t feel you’re shut-out
Love will find you… there’s a way

Carnival Cruise

Posted on February 25, 2013February 25, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Do you think we’re living…
Living like we’re living on a Carnival cruise?
Situation
Lose – Lose – Lose

Feces falling floor to floor
Garbage piling toward the sky
Can’t stand living with ourselves. No more!
My, oh, my

Putrid smell you do abhor
Brings a tear makes you cry
Can’t stand living with ourselves any more
Living like a monkey

Did we embark on Noah’s Ark…
Or, did we ride to the darkside…
On a Carnival cruise

ABOUT THE SONG

Daniel — Vocals, Guitar, Keyboards

A 6-track stereo extemporaneous recording made in Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States of America. This song was inspired by the Carnival Cruise ship “Triumph”. The ship became stranded at sea for five days. The passengers complained about the poop running down the walls and living with the smell of their own garbage. It made me think about how the planet is like a giant cruise ship. Can we live with ourselves? Take the sustainability challenge.

Carry On Baggage

Posted on February 23, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
While attached to your baggage
Might as well find a home
While attached to your baggage
Looking for happiness… you’ll roam
’till the baggage fades away
There won’t be an easy way

As long as you carry the baggage
It won’t leave you alone
As long as you carry the baggage
You’ll never be at home

As the baggage fades away
You’ll find a new day
You’ll find the new day

She Is Alive

Posted on February 22, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
What will be your mark
What will be your relevance
Bringing people from the dark
While you have a presence

Wearing a white hat
Into mortal combat
None of us are getting out alive

What will be your mark
What will be your relevance
Bringing people from the dark
While you have a presence

Baring the attack
There’s no need to fight back
Mirrors of God survive
Mirrors of God alive

She Is Alive.mp3
