This is the result of an internet project. The drummer and the bassist are both several time zones away from me and each other. I wrote the music and the drummer wrote the lyrics. I play the guitar parts and did all the vocals. The song is entitled "Sun Going Down".

[Cerebral Paul]

Here's a song I put together about 6 months ago which combines elements from many different areas. The instrumental also tells a story, though each person seems to interpret it's meaning differently, which is what I enjoy most about this piece.

Many thanks.

Paul

Lyrics:
....and so it goes.......and so it goes...
....and so it goes.......and so it goes...

I'll take what's mine-leave the rest behind
foolishly thinking..it was there all the time

Was it a dream?
Believe what you've seen....
Inside the madness....behind the scene...

Beg, Steal & Borrow
for your tomorrow,
or your tomorrow...will do you in..

gonna do ya in....gonna do you in...
gonna do ya in....gonna do you in...

Don't take it for granted..
As it comes, so it goes...
Slippin' away...from under your nose..

Was it a dream?
Believe what you've seen....
Inside the madness....behind the scene...

Beg, Steal & Borrow
for your tomorrow,
or your tomorrow...will do you in..

Beg, Steal & Borrow
for your tomorrow,
or your tomorrow...will do you in..

[Deth]

My track is a song that I call "Harmonica Man" it's me on vocs and harmonica and my friend on guitar. It's a true to life song about a man i met outside of a concert in Richmond. He told us his story and everything he said pretty much went into this song. He was the best i've ever seen. This is Dylanesque

IN YOUR ARMS

Turn around and dont look back
and your life will take a turn
turn around and dont look back
you're to young to burn

turn around and dont look back
you're too youg to burn
turn around and dont look back
fear will make you burn

you're in my heart and in my dreams
and yet you're nowhere in between,
my love

i'm in your arms now don't be scared
not long now we're nearly there
i'm in your amrs now don't be scared
don't turn around now we're nearly there
