A Home At The End Of The World

(Dan Cardwell)

I got to writing a song about these strange times we are living in that sort of turned into an argument between lovers.

You go looking for love Searching out all the wrong places You make all these promises Putting truth through it’s paces You take all your lies And use them to spin out all your fables Ignore your lover’s cries To put money back on the temple’s table A brush of lips, A lingering touch You’re making poison Out of love You’re all over the place While we’re stuck in cages But turning tricks for today Won’t fool through the ages Chorus: And I can hear for who sounds the toll of the bell I’m alone in a home at the end of the world And you never knew, Who to choose between love and your lover As you turn the streets empty Taking your chances between science and wonder Trapped in empty spaces, Staring into the void Now you’re looking to fill it With all of this noise A distant cry Between the guess and the answer Everyone asking why You want the hurt to hurt harder Chorus: And I can hear for who Sounds the toll of the bell I’m living alone in a home At the end of the world Middle Eight/Break: Faces Pressed against glass Hoping to begin again Love tears itself apart Cracks from the outside in Places All deserted And the days are speeding by As we tear each other apart Both with answers we think are right Chorus: And I can hear for whom Sounds the toll of the bell I’m living alone in a home At the end of the world Outro: You say a house ain’t a home If you don’t got the stuff to be tough But from this place I only hope We find our way back to love Let's find our way back to love Let's find our way back to love Let's find our way back to love ......To Love

Seeing Through New Eyes

By Neels Brand


This a a hard one, it stems from having had an "episode" with "voices", but once gone and I went outside, it was like heaven, like seeing everything for the first time, and reminded me of my youth. I honestly believe there is still a kid inside all of us. If I was Tom Hanks (I wish) in the movie BIG he could not contain the boy inside, he HAD to hope those keys on the foot piano, but I'm telling you right now, though technically he was a kid in a big body, I would play the heck out of that foot piano, or whatever it is called.

Like Me

By Izzy Douma


As you watch a person of interest, you are overcome with a longing to be noticed by him/her. “Like Me” narrates the actions of wishful thinking, hope, and the thought of feeling insignificant to the desired person of interest.
