Awake with eyes closed (Original #80) Brad Campbell

Watching to much news TV gonna stop soon....I patched a bunch of drum tracks from Sony's acid pro- and did a spoken word piece... having some technical problems but still wanted to post- i still find the Sony difficult to use and after having it one year this is my first piece with it.....

I am fine-1st stanza about Buddist concept that once your born you begin to die-get over it and your free to live the rest of your life to the fullest-also N.American obsession with youth and pretending we'll live forever...

Pictures are of some of my tattoo's each one has its own story and they seemed to fit with the song- another coming next week hopefully -all the best and thanks-Brad

AWAKE WITH EYES CLOSE
and now for something completly different......

Being born; is when you begin to die
Cut the cord & start to slide
All the graveyards testify
We're only here for a short time

You give me money & I give you this
We all pretend the money isn't worthless
We owe trillions; a wallet full of art pieces in a mess
When the rest see wehave no clothes we'll be homeless

Waiting round to die -codeines got me bunged and high

Everyone needs to satisfy
Touching, talking, loving, feeling all right
As humans if our needs aren't rectified
We fill motel rooms;with strangers, to get satisfied

Looking out my window-can't see the sky
All the smog across the ocean blocks the sky
American owned Chines factories say quit whining-don't cry
We need someworthless money; and besides you look lonley and about to die.

Another Lemming over the cliff
Morphines cut the codienes edge -and everything is fine

As were waitingto die
Are you awake you have your eyes close?
And now for something completly different......

If you're going to do a talking song, do something decent like Big John. This sucks.
