World of Men

(Christopher Van Name)

Hard to believe what a mess we've made of this world. Our environment abused, over used and taken for granted. Personal and religious freedom challenged every day. Racial and gender inequality and discrimination. Greed, avarice, hate and violence promoted by the insecure and power hungry. Lies, the language of the day. The world of men. Imagine a world where love and respect are the norm? Where the norm is realizing and recognizing that we are all different. A world that celebrates those differences. Where the only weapon we have available is listening and communicating openly with one another. Where everyone is accepted and treated respectfully and given the same opportunity to speak up. To aspire to be the best they can be. To reach as far and as high as they can without fear and oppression. Sounds like Shangra-La. It could be.

Castles in the sky reaching for the heavens Forests stained and paved with streets of gold Racing to the stars in search of new obsessions While oceans drown and mountains lose their soul Ceilings made of glass Markets made to crash Nothing's made to last In the world of men The road to bountiful wanders through the desert While grapes of wrath linger on the vine Can a future undefined bring us all together? When callous hearts embrace the great divide? Plowshares turned to swords Children shunned and bored Chaos and discord In the world of men Hallways overcrowded with non-combatants Paper trails that lead to fields of stone Rhetoric breeds fodder for the cannon While bloodied flags fly high above the throne Shadows in their eyes Values compromised Freedom vandalized This is the world of men Truths are bought and sold History retold What does the future hold For the world of men? What does the future hold For the world of men?

Now I know you're free

By Christopher Van Name

Living with the loss of loved ones. It's always difficult to put such loss into perspective. To grieve. To celebrate a lost life. To learn to go and live your own life. To answer all the questions. Was that person happy in their own life? Were their dreams fulfilled? Is there life after death? Where does one's spirit go when they leave this earth? Eternal questions with no answers. I guess it all comes down to one's faith and how they deal with life and death. - For Penny and Gail

North Wind

By Christopher Van Name

Autumn. Chill in the air. A time of aging. New things wear old, flowers dry up and fade away, leaves fall and hearts break. The cold winter looms ahead. The North Wind blows the winter hard and cold. The winter blues can take a good love down.

This Old Clown

By Christopher Van Name

Sitting alone one stormy winter night in the old family shore house. Looking up at an old picture on the wall of my wife, three children and myself. I could feel that younger man staring down at me. Was I the man he thought I'd become? I spent that night with a bottle of sweet Grenache and my memories, demons and higher angels, as a raging Nor' Easter howled through the eaves. By midnight, the bottle was drained, I was a bit weary and bleary eyed, and I had jotted down this bittersweet, self-analytical piece about life, love, family and redemption. In the end, it confirmed what i already knew. My darling wife, my lover, my friend and my heart and soul, has been along for the ride through thick and thin, strikes and gutters, ups and downs. T's been my privilege to have her by my side as we walk through the human comedy. As long as I can breathe, I'll pick her up if she falls down. Always. Forever.

I know he knows

By Christopher Van Name

Part of a "work in progress" musical, titled "Ninth Street". Boy meets girl in the BIG CITY. Love, life and dreams come together. That magical time of sleepless nights, day dreaming, tender moments that you hope last forever, self-doubting, jealousy and mystery. She's now knows she loves him. But does he love her? Does he know how she feels? Do they both feel the same way. He knows. She knows.

Dreaming Out the Door

By Izzy Douma

This song contemplates the feeling of being stuck inside of one's mind, whilst using the analogy of dreaming out of a door, waiting for rescue. The verses and the bridge of this song are meant to be rap, while the choruses and tag are meant to be a part of a melody. The song gives a dark, dreamy attitude and abbreviates the longing for a deep connection with the outside world. Enjoy!
