The End Of The End
by admin on Nov.26, 2009, under Talk About Making Music
The End Of The End is a concept album.
Following are some influences and ideas:
Daniel 12
The End Times
1 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered.
2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.
Revelations Chapter 12
12:1 A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
12:2 She was with child. She cried out in pain, laboring to give birth.
12:3 Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
12:4 His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
12:5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.
12:6 The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
12:7 There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war.
12:8 They didn’t prevail, neither was a place found for him any more in heaven.
12:9 The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
12:10 I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now is come the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
12:11 They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death.
12:12 Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time.”
12:13 When the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
12:14 Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
12:15 The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
12:16 The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.
12:17 The dragon grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep God’s commandments and hold Jesus’ testimony.
From Forbidding or Friendly Grim Reaper Tattoos –
“Grim Reaper tattoos first gained a foothold in the Americas in 18th century Mexico and Argentina, where poor criminals adopted them as totems to ward off capture by the police. Mexican Grim Reaper tattoos, surprisingly, depict the Reaper as a female; but even more surprisingly, in both the Mexican and Argentinean cultures, the Grim Reaper is regarded as a saint, “La Santisima Muerte” in Mexico and “San La Muerte” in Argentina.”
From ABC News’ Will the World End in 2012?
“You have to understand, there will be nothing, nothing left,” Geryl told ABC News from his home in Antwerp, Belgium. “We will have to start an entire civilization from scratch.”
But for all the hype, there is little evidence the ancient Maya ever intended for the end of their calendar to be read as a portent for disaster.
“These prophecies of doom really don’t have any basis in what we know about the Maya,” said Stephen Houston, a professor of anthropology at Brown University and a specialist of Maya hieroglyphic writing. “The Maya descriptions barely talk about this event.”
Instead, Houston said, the Maya saw their “long count” — the longest of their cyclical calendars — coming to an end in 2012 but also beginning anew on that date, without disastrous consequences.

Who’s to say
The only way
Whose hooray
For eternity

Gone tomorrow
Better leave
With no sorrow

For you
Be true
Be all I am
Don’t grieve

Won’t deceive
Believe
No no naive

Impromptu

F# / Em / E / F
Now, that
Took me by surprise
How about you?
Wow! That
Took me by surprise
Impromptu
I get
A new pair of shoes
Probably
The ones you lose
But, they
Sure help
This dancing muse
All those
Lights are flashing
A K-9 unit, too?
That blows
The crowd dashing
To get out of view
The truck
Pulling out
The truck
Gets stuck
In the mud
The jerk offs
Pulling their pud
Wanna be called
Office-sir
While life
Goes by
In a blur
ABOUT THIS SONG
It was my birthday. Because of prior obligations, I did not think I would be free. At the last minute, the situation changed. So, we had a surprise party. As it was Halloween, we took are party on the road and ended up at another costume party.
It was raining hard. Cars got stuck in the mud. A friend of mine was dressed up like an Asian Santa Clause. The mud was so deep she took off her shoes and handed them to me. While I was walking around holding them, a caravan of police vehicles arrived. The crowd scattered.
The next day on FaceBook I wrote:
Now THAT was a surprise party… not sure who was surprised more… me or you?
And, the friend wrote:
Where the heck did you go last night!? haha i was hiding in the car from the cops for an hour and then you were gone
( buuuut it was fun glad you came out and hope you had an awesome birthday.. ps do you have asian santas shoes? lol
To which I replied:
Ha… I thought the shoes were my birthday present from Santa? By the way, you inspired a new song.

C / F (with an island feel)
Like the way you smile
The sparkle in your eye
And, I’m thinking
All the while
I, I, I
Get this feeling
In your presence
I, I, I
Get this reeling
From you essence
Why, why, why
Is getting to know you
So intriguing
Is getting nearer you
So soothing
Like the way you move
The way you say, “Hi”
And, I’m thinking
Together
We groove
Smooth
I care
Like to hear your laugh
Funny things you say
We’re more than half
… more than half way
There
Our glass half full
Optimistically
Wonderful
Attention Span
by admin on Nov.01, 2009, under lyrics, The Beatless Sense Mongers, The Newest Story Ever Told
It goes in one ear
And, out the other
Never coming near
The attention span
Never coming in
Clear
It’s a good thing
We don’t depend
On our bridging
The gap
If the synapse
Is an indicator…
Or, we’d all be
Later
If we let time lapse
Everything we fear
Will be upon us
So, lets gain focus
Less it be our end
Let’s hear it clear
It can’t go in one ear
And, out the other
Forever missing –
The attention span
No, no, no
Instead,
Let’s be led
To human, upon human,
Forming The Attention Span
We can
Span any divide
No matter how wide –
The attention span
Bridge any distance
No matter how far
Overcome resistance
To being bizarre
The attention span
After all,
What’s so bizarre
To listening?
Needn’t fall
Maim or mare
Global positioning
The attention span
Of human
