Cemetery of Dreams

(Alexander Whittington)

This is a song about refereeing all the dreams you had as a kid and dwelling in them. As a college student it brings back all the memories of the things I wanted a lot. This song is in that vain.

Verse 1 I walk among the tombstones of what I thought I wanted The want died along with my dreams now all my aspirations haunted By all the thoughts of the person I told myself I was gonna be But no matter how hard I tried I stayed the same me Bridge 1 What the hell went wrong to make me change for the worse How do I break this spell when I know I’m the curse Chorus 1 So here I walk in the cemetery of dreams The groundskeeper of the things that I know I’m not I watch the thoughts fly by crushed, severed at the seams I had all the bullets but I never took the shot And here lies the idea of what I aspired to do In this place I’ll stay and I’ll never pass through Verse 2 I look into the dark knowing that I’m not the light I created this place when I refused to fight For the dreams of a child that I used to be That would be ashamed if he ever saw me Bridge 2 I broke the only object I ever held dear My mind is scattered and now I’m stuck in here Chorus 2 So here I walk in the cemetery of dreams The groundskeeper of the things that I know I’m not I watch the thoughts fly by crushed, severed at the seams I had all the bullets but I never took the shot And here lies the idea of what I aspired to do In this place I’ll stay and I’ll never pass through

Art of love

By Awuah-Mainoo Gabriel


This composition is to establish the fact that there’s nothing like a perfect being. Love is based on complete acceptance and contentment. Two perfect (same likes) things repel, even if there is perfection it is somewhat to an extent. After all it is two different things that always attract.

Two Way Street

By Nick Duer


A song describing the ups and downs of life. Also the ups and downs of love. Both capturing the truth that you must give to receive. Often giving comes with no guarantee, save the promise if you don't give then you will never receive.
