    DESTINY AND DOOM

                                                         
                                                            

    Destiny and Doom The Market square was buzzing when she caught his eye Clean took his breath away left him mesmerized She was selling sweet molasses pie it lingered in the air As light danced round like rose cut diamonds in her hair She shaded her lovely face from the high noon rays Her heart skipped a beat as she settled on his gaze Her Papa hovered near by completely unaware Love had found its way to her in that young man’s stare When the cupid calls When two lovers fall Fate doesn’t always unfold in kind Should destiny and doom collide He waited by the general store almost ‘til sunset The market peddlers packed up most already left Her Papa walked on by him to the Lonely Buck saloon Left his daughter at the stable with the wagon and the moon With her gelding Duke she waited wrapped in her best shawl The shy young man found her in the dusty stall The night flew by way faster than a dogwood arrow He knew she was the one and longed to be her hero When the cupid calls When two lovers fall Fate doesn’t always unfold in kind Should destiny and doom collide As the morning lit the blue the town fast asleep She knew in her heart they were meant to be With her hand over his she leaned in for their first kiss When a sharp searing pain came ripping through his ribs Papa did what a man does to protect his daughter No charges were laid not even manslaughter But the sentence to imprison him Papa realized Was the light he killed forever in his lovely Annie’s eyes No fate doesn’t always unfold in kind Should destiny and doom Should destiny and doom Should destiny and doom collide

    The Saga of the Remorseless Mother Three came through the garden All in a dark shade of blue She smiled as she addressed them ‘Gentlemen how do you do’ And they lead her to the courtroom Then to a State cell on death row Came the day to meet her maker She was all ready to go She showed no remorse so the newspapers said Well what’s the point of sorry if you’d do it again As the preacher prayed for her A young man with her same eyes Walked along the silent hallway He’d come to say goodbye She greeted him tenderly The guards had never seen her cry As she finally told her story He understood for the first time She showed no remorse so the newspapers said Well what’s the point of sorry if you’d do it again The young man left the chambers And the mother he hardly knew With all his questions answered And new insight to the truth As a bright light hovered over And peace finally filled her veins She dreamt of her now grown son Thankful for the choice she made She showed no remorse so the newspapers said Well what’s the point of sorry if you’d do it again The son walked through the garden And the house where he was born Pulling off the dusty covers Not sure what he was looking for Found a picture of his father Relieved they didn’t look alike And he cried hard for his mama Protecting him that deadly night She showed no remorse so the newspapers said Well what’s the point of sorry if you’d do it again And the hills rose from the water The sun rose from the hills And a butterfly from the heavens Came to rest by him on the window sill

    Vocals by Lauren Braddock Produced by Don Henry Music and Lyrics by Rhonda Pisanello His bloodshot tired eyes had paled I think his nose had grown some Might not recognize me now He only knew me young Didn’t open his door too wide to me Seemed smaller than he used to be And I’d heard through the family vine He drinks himself to sleep every night I tried to speak but I was choked Tears welling up in my throat Saw his brows tense so I blurt out Sorry sir must be the wrong house His familiar gaze shot to mine But just as fast a stranger’s eyes Step back in and shut the door Before I could say any more All the years suddenly disappear I’m 17 again My burning cheeks red As the handprints he once left Then the words come screaming back Selfish stupid ungrateful brat You’re just like your mother he always said And I didn’t know then what he meant When he called her ‘The Thing’ Funny how some words can Keep rippling I turn and glare at the shabby paint On the old white fence I‘d come to hate Kicked it in all those years ago A busted spirit and a busted toe That’s when I left that life behind Now as I leave it comes to mind Could take it out on the fence again But it wouldn’t help now like it didn’t help then As a kid I got mad but now it’s just exhausting How can he still have this fucking hold on me? Hold on me Then I remind myself why I’ve come Not for him but me all grown up Spin around take a deep breathe March back up that crumbling path With my head high and no shame I knock again then I wait And with true colours shining through That face I knew comes into view I stand and stare frozen in time Till that little girl stops shaking inside Then before I turn and walk away I finally find the words I came to say Dad, I forgive you

Do you echo in the atmosphere Dark yet comforting Is it you, here with me? Watching over with those golden eyes Your shadow lingering Here on earth, Blackbird Ooooooooo V2 And everything we left unsaid, never spoken And all the wounds we never got to heal Even when the past descends, still I'm trying to defend Time and secrets have a way of changing how a story ends C2 Is it you, here with me? Do you echo in the atmosphere Dark yet comforting Is it you, here with me? Watching over with those golden eyes Your shadow lingering Here on earth, Blackbird Ooooooo Bridge Fly to the iridescent sky I caught the feather that fell And I know you wish me well C3 Is it you, here with me?

    When Love Is Through Lyrics and Music by Rhonda Pisanello V1 I was standing in the lineup at the movies When you walked through the front door I could see you chatting laughing and having a good time I couldn't help but wonder who it was you were talking to The way that you were smiling just like when you were mine PC1 You were the first I ever loved I swore you'd be the last Too young to know just how good it was God I treated you so bad C1 When love is through it doesn't turn around to take a look back For the one who ripped and tore its heart in two When love is through it doesn't hang around for an after party When love is through when love is through with you Whoa V2 Staring up at the silver screen having flashbacks We were running through the subway You were carrying your white shoes, a bouquet your other hand in mine It was three in the morning you were teasing couldn't wait to get home Naïve and barely breathing it was my very first time PC2 That was a night that will always be the core of who I am Hate myself more than ever now but why should you girl give a Damn… C2 When love is through it doesn't turn around to take a look back For the one who ripped and tore its heart in two When love is through it doesn't hang around for an after party When love is through with you, when love is through with you BRIDGE I broke your heart when I ran out I messed us up and for what it's worth I hope your life is always good it's all and more that you deserve C3 When love is through it doesn't turn around to take a look back For the one who ripped and tore its heart in two When love is through it doesn't hang around for an after party When love is through with you, ooh When love is through with you, When love is through with you, When love is through with you,

    AUTUMN LEAVES (J. Delaurier/R. Pisanello) I hear you standing on the steps, calling out my name Silent, I try not to move, so you’ll just go away If I answer you now it’ll be just like it always was before I imagine how you feel, as your footsteps fade But my love could never be enough if you don’t wanna change And I can't let you bring the mess you’ve made to my door, anymore I've lost count, of how many times I've bailed you out Like a twister we go round and round, broken pieces everywhere Like autumn leaves when they fall Our lives have scattered all directions Shattered by addiction That's stealing you from me Feels like time is running out And it’s all tumbling down Everything’s changing, everything’s fading Like autumn leaves when they fall All the days I drove around just to make sure you’re ok And the nights that I spend laying, praying God will keep you safe I hope someone somewhere says a little prayer for me, cuz I believe That someday, you'll know why I need to walk away Oh I guess that’s why they say to fear less means to love more Like autumn leaves when they fall Our lives have scattered all directions Shattered, by addiction That's stealing you from me Feels like time is running out And it’s all tumbling down Everything’s changing, everything’s fading Like autumn leaves when they fall Got to let you go, I know it’s time Got to let you fall, to let you fly... Like autumn leaves Like autumn leaves (ahh)

    LYRICS He is sitting with his memories by a fountain in the shade With a photograph that makes him laugh remembering that day As she walks by they share a smile as only strangers can When they catch a glance of sorrow and somehow they understand TIME DOESN’T ALWAYS HEAL BUT LOVE, YEAH IT ALWAYS WILL SOMEHOW YOU JUST HAVE TO FEEL THE BEAUTY IN THE DARKEST SPACES THESE ARE THE LONELY PLACES In her pocket there’s a rosary her Mama used to pray Life, it gives her lessons, there’s so much that she would change The mourning dove flies near to her, she listens for its song To help her through the years of all that’s lost but never gone TIME DOESN’T ALWAYS HEAL BUT LOVE, YEAH IT ALWAYS WILL SOMEHOW YOU JUST HAVE TO FEEL THE BEAUTY IN THE DARKEST SPACES THESE ARE THE LONELY PLACES BR All you dreamers all you lovers Be fearless in your quest This journey is for taking So leave nothing to forget TIME DOESN’T ALWAYS HEAL BUT LOVE, YEAH IT ALWAYS WILL SOMEHOW YOU JUST HAVE TO FEEL THE BEAUTY IN THE DARKEST SPACES THESE ARE THE LONELY PLACES [TAG]:THE BEAUTY IN THE DARKEST SPACES THE EMPTINESS WHERE ALL THE GRACE IS THESE ARE THE LONELY PLACES

    Quiet Without You by Joni Delaurier and Rhonda Pisanello Can hear the cattle calling I toss and turn in bed Sleep don’t come too easy With you inside my head Can’t smell the morning coffee Or hear the radio But I better get my ass up Got chores to do you know Darling please, please tell me Tell me how, how will I get on through Oh I’m too damn old This house is too damn cold And too damn quiet without you Flowers fill the front room Should probably throw ‘em out I know you’d love the colours So I keep ‘em anyhow Make sure that they got water That’s what you would do And just like God called you away They’re fading from me too Darling please, please tell me Tell me how, how will I get on through Oh I’m too damn old This house is too damn cold And too damn quiet without you And when the casseroles and pie And people stopping by Run down to nothing What then Honey what then And someone please, please tell me Tell me how, how will I get on through I’m too damn old This house is too damn cold And too damn quiet without you Too damn quiet without you

    Up In Smoke V1 Pour my heart out Spill my ink All this pain has got me sinking Everything I’ve been keeping in Like a time bomb ticking Write my truth Add your lies to the pile Strike a match set it all on fire When the sparks die then Pour the gasoline and strike again C1 Yeah I’m going to burn those ashes Burn ‘till nothing, ‘till nothing’s left Watch that tainted toxic love blow Up, up, up in smoke Yeah I’m going to burn those ashes Burn ‘till nothing, ‘till nothing’s left Watch that tainted toxic love blow Up, up, up in smoke V2 (1/2 verse) You don’t get to haunt my mind All the cold, cruel and unkind Ways you played my heart and soul And threw me to the coals BR And every feeling I’ve ever had for you All the love, hate, tenderness, pain and disdain Into flames C2 Yeah I’m going to burn those ashes Burn ‘till nothing, ‘till nothing’s left Watch that tainted toxic love blow Up, up, up in smoke Yeah I’m going to burn those ashes Burn ‘till nothing, ‘till nothing’s left Watch that tainted toxic love blow Up, up, up in smoke
