Sky Burial

For the curios:
from stardust we’re made and are one in a million
and stardust we fade in a second of time
a roll of the dice it will change in a instant
so grab the brass ring passing by
a decision will send you in a new direction
and unfolds adventure anew
and one that will end in the same way as others
impossibly human its true
these scars on my face are proof that
I have lived this life
they are the memories that walk by my side
let the carrion fly
fly on the solar winds
like a phoenix I’ll rise
burial in the sky
the body it dies and at once it revives
dark matter continues unending
with Hawking and Huxley we open the mind
and the concept of time ever bending
into the black and onward forever
this is my final reward
no dust to dust for the fates have decided forever traversing the void
stars over my head have been there since the dawn of time
and one life is gone in the blink of an eye
let the carrion fly
fly on the solar winds
like a phoenix I’ll rise
burial in the sky
I ride devils wings
constellations divine
stardust I will return
only the soul will die
Solos (yes, plural)
these scars on my face are proof that
i have lived this life
they are the memories that walk by my side
let the carrion fly
fly on the solar winds
like a phoenix I’ll rise
burial in the sky
let the carrion fly
constellations divine
stardust I will return
only the soul will die

Worlds Collide

I can see Lake Athabasca
in my ear I hear the rockets drone
there’s no turning back
i felt I’m under attack
in that place I used to know as my home
the city lights seem a little more friendly
from a hundred miles away in the air
but the grass is alway greener
and things look better from here
but the grass is alway greener
and things look better
I made a serious leap to reinvention
when I arrived and threw the keys in the lake
systems of a thousand years became a thousand prisons
and Mars is a chance I can take
ain’t no better way to spin the story
not complaining and not blaming you
when you grow up sometimes you outgrow
when you outgrow its time to go
hold on to your thoughts
that you want to
to turn back
and grow old on
what were you sold on
what do you hold on
when there’s nothing left to hold on
when worlds collide
Into the void swallow the panic
aint no way your goin home
you tried it before
but this is somethin more
you’ll never make it outta this world alone
what you’re leaving behind ain’t your kind
what you’re leaving behind is an empty mind
you’ll never find
when worlds collide
solo
hold on to your thoughts
that you want to
to turn back
and grow old on
what were you sold on
what do you hold on
when there’s nothing left to hold on

Might As Well Be On Mars
05:36

For the curios, an early version of the lyrics:
The night looks so much closer from far away
the day is little pindrops through my window pane
I can see my past in the glass now
a marble spinning blue and bright
a single game of soltaire
drags on through an endless night
threads of static singing in my ears
playing century sounds I’d love to hear
and in a world of ice
congele noir et froid
at the speed of light
I live my adventure
je vis mon aventure
I might as well be on mars
(I might as well be swimming in the ocean,
I might as well vacation on the moon,
I might as well live behind the clouds)
A thread connection holds me anchored to reality
low level echo reminds me of where I used to be
speaker under pillow
Luxenbourg is there
on pirate radio
with parents unaware

Taurus at war will claim you
the science can not work it new
mars is a god of the weakest man
and the bull takes the warrior true
adrift in abyss you can’t fill your time
the millenia cold that will shut your mind
mars is destroyed the flight path delayed
taurus is finally at war
taurus at war
mars is no more
Mars is of stone that will fail you
Mars is the youthful offender
Mars the naif overestimate
no god of war a pretender
taurus at war
taurus on Earth will warm you
taurus the stars in the sky
taurus is life to the ones cast below
but above he sends you to die
taurus at war

Comfortable In Darkness

in the darkness you can finally hear yourself breathe
i get a moment to forgive myself and to relieve
all the mixed emotions bouncing in my head
moments to reflect and forget what i said
and the time stands still and you sit til your life’s at an end
it ain’t smooth sailing just cause nothings wrong
like you’re talking bout your problems on the telephone
convinced that baby you’re the one
when you’re comfortable in darkness
you are never alone
when you’re comfortable in darkness
anywhere is your home
hanging out here with nothin but time on my hands
thinking about life and trying to understand
I might finally get some meaning
live your life with those who keep you dreaming
they ain’t forever
so make their day
the best that you can
there ain’t someone in the clouds lookin down on you
not everything ends the way you want it to
no use complaining
when you’re comfortable in darkness
you are never alone
when you’re comfortable in darkness
anywhere is your home

Taurus at War Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
Taurus At War is the album by Robin Jordan, me in Saskatoon. It may be a 'concept album'. Not sure, really... I'd say all records are concept albums by the artists (blah blah). Anyway, I worked hard on it and I hope you like it. There was no 'autotune' etc on the record. 'Whole thing was played and mixed as old school' as I could get it. So stop complaining if it sucks and hope you like it! ... more
