First of all want to say a big THANK YOU...no, a BIG thank you..
THANK YOU
That's better! To all of you lovely folks who bother to take the time (or make the time) to watch the videos and listen to the screeching mess that I call music. Thanks!
It means a lot to me. I mean that in all honesty. Also those who help out by LIKING, SUBSCRIBING, SHARING and so on. The Youtube algorithms work on the basis of likes, subscriptions and comments, so the more of that shit one gets the better.
By popular demand (meaning one person asked me :)) I will be putting the lyrics to the songs up somewhere. There you go Tanja, I hope you're happy now that you have made more work for me!! I know I have a few German speakers too and it's a bit tricky to get the meaning of English lyrics. I won't try to translate them, but I'll start putting them under the videos OR, if you would prefer, I can try and create a lyric page on the blog or website and a link to Google translate. Which would be better? Let me know in the comments. Like I say, I will start trying to remember to write them under the videos in the description.
It's raining now, so BITTERSWEET will be filmed this week sometime and then it will have to be edited and so on, so you can expect that maybe next week. There is another track in the works too. This one is an anthem for my hometown, which I miss dearly- LIVERPOOL. It's a Stevenstevens number, so Naomi will be making an appearance. We want to do a video when we get over to England (hopefully this year if Covid allows) and that video will be of the city and all the places mentioned in the song. However, I don't want to make you wait that long, so I will make a different temporary video fist of all and do the other when I get over there. I'll possibly do an video with just lyrics because the song will be sung in the accent of the city and the Germans amongst you will maybe have a little trouble getting the gist. My accent isn't that strong anymore, but it's about the city so the accent is a must! Get yer laughin' gear 'round da!
See what I mean? :))
So, lyrics page here on the website....or...under the videos?
Oblivion and A World Away lyrics are below!!
Have a funtastic week.
Be creative and be content.
Love Rob

OBLIVION
It's so like you, to do what you do.
What would I be without you my dear?
These tiered hands that molded the world, are blistered and torn from my deeds.
We were born to be lost on this baron sea and dragged to the depths of uncertainty. You'll take my hand as nations fall to sand and melt in warm impermanency.
The banquet is set, one last meal before death.
Sharing his fruit, I'll forget what I've been.
Sipping his wine, the last sweet drops of time will dance on my tongue as his hand touches mine.
I'll fall into sleep taking with me all the dreams that I held so desperately.
And, finally free, from life's savagery I will rest in your arms for eternity.
And silence will reign as my desperate brain fights to retain all the fear of the loss.
And there you will be, my last sweet memory.
You'll stand by the sea to take me across.
I will fall into you, and your love will take me through and in love we'll go on and on.
As darkness descends and my dazed confusion ends I'll embrace oblivion.
Oblivion
Oblivion
A World Away
Now I have opened my eyes to the world I'm astounded by what I see;
Something immeasurable weaving its way, raging inside me.
Clarity comes in like waves on a beach sent by the shining sea.
In drowning, a pleasure is there to be found- breathe in the beauty.
And if speak then I know that my words can't express what i want to say.
And if I'm silent, I'm silent because I'm a world away.
In every moment there's peace to be found, free form absurdity.
Without the boundaries the boundless abounds, flowing straight through me.
All limitation I cast on myself suddenly cease to be.
And in the presence of presence the dew drop slip in the shining sea.
And if speak then I know that my words can't express what i want to say.
And if I'm silent, I'm silent because I'm a world away.
A world away
A world away
A world away
