GREYSIGN

(J.Palacio)

Date: March 2013, recorded and completed 2013-2015

-

It's been a wrong long way for me

It’s been a long cold day, I’ve become creepy

Yet, I won't give away to the grey around me

I won't wake in a haze of obscurity

-

And I just won't quit it, No

Now that I'm so close

And I just won't give it in, No

Even though I'm so bored

-

It’s been a long lack of love for me

It’s been so long since I've seen the sun, moon, the real me

-

And I just won't quit it now, No

Now that I'm so close

And I just won't give it in, No

Even though I'm so bored

-

And I just won't quit now, No

Brittle as I've been

And I just won't quit it now, No,

Bothered as I've been

SING AND SING SONGS

(J.Palacio) Jan 2013

-

I sing and sing my song

I hum away

Another tune

-

I sing and sing my song

I ease away

Some winter pain

-

Anguish tends to mend

Constant war takes a break

-

I'm so happy and free

I’m so happy and free

-

But it’s been a mission

With myself

And my decisions

With myself

And submission

With myself

-

I sing and sing my song

I hum away

Another tune

-

I sing and sing my song

Ease away

Some winter pain

-

Violent waves refrain

Avoiding the replay

-

I’ll be happy and free

I'll be happy you'll see

-

But it’s been a mission

With myself

And my decisions

They propel

My condition

With myself

-

I've kept busy

With myself

Renovation

With myself

Sing and sing songs

To myself

AFTERTHOUGHTS

(J.Palacio) Copyright August 2012

-

I can be alone

But never feel lonely

For the cure of loneliness is me

I always choose which way I weep

-

Runaway?

Or should I stay?

Anyway

So much to say

So far away

-

And those times I have wept

Will I take it to my grave?

I don't know which fear is worst

To be lonely or feel I've lost

-

Am I blind?

Are there signs?

Wake me up

I want to be

Where you want me

-

Runaway?

Or should I stay?

Anyway

Please let me know

Before I'm too old

Before I'm too old and young

-

I wanna live

Smile everywhere I go

I want to love

For the whole wide word

I want to laugh

Till I can't take it no more

I want to cry

-

So far away

Only which way?

I'm so alone

Only my Lord knows

-

So far away

Only which way?

I'm so afraid

Oh my God I pray!

-

So far and dark

Blind in my cave

I'm so confused

Lost In my Lord's maze

MISSING IN TIME

(J.Palacio) Dec 2012

-

Girl, I've grow up

Next to your side

Take that life

Light a Flare?

-

Or will you let me

Burn now & inside out?

But please don't let the

Dark rain kill my flame

A story unfolds

With secrets untold

Many signs we chose

To blind and ignore

-

Have I Evolved?

Or stagnant, still singing sappy songs?

My, how time goes so fast

But it feels so slow

-

Mia, I don't know

Who dealt the woes

All I’ve ever known

Is how the years have flown

-

Missing in time, am I really missing time?

Missing in time, am I missing life?

-

God I wish that you were mine

Instead you're leaving me behind

I wish for you all the time

I wish you find some peace in your life

I'll be passing by your life

Catch up in some other time

TRANSFIGURATION

(J.Palacio) Original Lyrics originated from July 12, 2002

Recording started in May 1, 2011 with final vocals completed in 2015.

-

It was just like a dream

It was like a nightmare

One moment it was peaceful

The next minute it was painful

-

It was unbelievable

It was so destructible

One moment I was robot

The next minute I was human

-

I'm wailing away

-

Should l grow older and become grumpy?

But to laugh, we all get younger

To live each day with a smile on my face

-

It gives me proof of the magic that is God

To be human again, to be happy and free

-

I am sailing away instead of waiting

I am sailing far away instead of waiting

I am sailing and changing

TOO MUCH

(J.Palacio) April 2013

-

It's too much

Wonder why we wait so long

Later on we will complain

"I know I should have changed, good heaven!”

-

Now it’s too much

It’s too much

And it’s too much

-

Wonder why we are hesitating

Waiting so long, delaying

"I know I should have said something!”

-

But now it’s too much

It’s too much

-

Nothing ever seems to go undisturbed

Later on we will feel the wound

Of a scar thought to be healed, such blood staining!

-

Now it’s too much

It’s too much

-

Wonder why we wait so long

Later on we will want to reset

The good, the bad, and in between, but for right now

-

It ok!

It’s alright!

Not right now!

It’s too much!

-

And now the road has gone

Alone left for me to heal

Build now a new path, a new round

-

It's too much

BROTHERHOOD

(J.Palacio) Originated Dec 16, 2012. Copyright 2012-2015

-

Brotherhood, the Eye

Can never brace the disconnect

-

Brotherhood, Slink ways

Lives out a mandate to save the day

-

Brotherhood, befriend

While Squeeko creates and isolates

-

Brotherhood, mistakes

Everyone creates to meet their fate

-

One day the world will find a peace

And then we will live in it

-

Fulfilled in deeds but till the end

There's no way we can make it

-

Brotherhood, my only friends

Together we will win in the end

-

Brotherhood, my love

Extends beyond words that I won't say

Oh why?

THE CALL

(J.Palacio) November 2013 Copyright 2013-2015

-

FATHER LEADER:

Careful to be seen

Numb and discreet

So awaken in your sleep

Hiding in your cave

Away from the sounds of the day

That irritate a hidden pain

-

Mend your heart

Don’t refuse it

-

SPIRAL EYE:

Must hold back

Or give it all

The worst is yet to come

-

Behold the hidden seed

That floats, yet in creed

Undiscovered is my bliss

-

Mend your heart

God bess your heart

Don’t refuse it

-

MOTHER LEADER:

Late in your life

Between your own lives

A child at your heart

Then you won’t resent me

-

SPIRAL EYE:

Mend your heart

God bless your heart

Don’t refuse it

Mend your heart

Tend to your heart

Change your heart

Don’t refuse it!

I want freedom

-

SPIRAL EYE:

Open eyes are pensive and anxious

Filled with traces of my passion

-

So much music, so much talent

Yet I'm a needle in a haystack

So many creatures, so many sounds

And I get lost in that crowd

-

Memories, it brings so much harmonies

It makes me want to sing melodies

And I want to relive those memories

Stories sound like romantic fantasies

Like the first day I kissed your lips

And I want to live those stories again

And the greatest challenge that I always face

Understand myself under the limitations

Plenty of years are always ahead

So much suffocation to give it any head

And a future time of peace

Makes me strong and makes me weak

When present peace does exist

In my mind and in my acts

-

Toda mi vida

Quise un poco de amor

Toda mi vida

Solo con mi dolor

Toda mi vida

Sin tu cariño

Si lo siento, si no te siento

-

Toda mi vida

Que paso con ese deber

Toda mi vida

Que paso con tu sonrisa?

Todo mi vida

Que paso en tu niñez?

Si lo siento, si no te siento

APOTHEOSIS

(J.Palacio) 3/15/2014 Copyright 2015

-

I don’t want to bring you down

I just want to set you free

Free to be, free to taunt my mind

Will I see you again?

Will you love me again?

-

I don’t want to be a downer

I don’t want to be crude

I just want to let my truth self show

Then I’ll see you again

Then you’ll love me again, again?

-

I don’t want to bring you down

I just want to wonder free

You’re free to be, free to cross my mind

Until I’ll see you again

And I’ll meet you again

-

I don’t want to be a downer

I don’t want to be crude

I just want to let my truth self show

Then I’ll see you again

Then you’ll love me again, again?

-

I don’t want to leave you

But I don’t want to let you down

I just want to see you

I just want to see you smile

Do you know the way that leads?

Do you hear the distant sounds?

I know my disabilities

Maybe next time around

I don’t want to leave you

But I don’t want to let you down

When I see you’re rising

I will witness your smile
