Can't Take Any More
04:00
|
|||
|
The girl with green hair is assessing her life
Why did she ever decide to become his wife?
She left her home far away all because of love
But he doesn’t seem to care… What is he thinking of?
She says, “I can’t take it! I can’t take any more!
I’m always there for him but he’s always chasing skirt…
Such a bore…
Yes, I can’t take it! I can’t take any more!
One of these days I should leave
Yes, I should walk out the door”
The boy with plain eyes is assessing his life
Every day seems to end in bitter strife
He didn’t ask for this, there’s plenty of fish!
But she can be terribly sweet and she’s quite the dish…
He says, “I can’t take it! I can’t take any more!
She’s violently possessive and she’s always jealous
It’s such a bore!
Yes, I can’t take it! I can’t take any more!
Deep down, I do love her
But she makes loving her back quite a chore"
“I can’t take it! I can’t take any more!
She’s violently possessive and she’s always jealous
It’s such a bore!"
"Yes, I can’t take it! I can’t take any more!
One of these days I should leave
Yes, I should walk out the door”

Waiting for Godai

|
She sits, waiting for him
To come back home tonight
The tea gets cold in her hands
The sun’s no longer bright
And she knows that he won’t make a move
Until he thinks he’s worthy…
But that time has come
And she wants him to react
…And put up a fight
Complain that she went on a date the other night
And tell her what he really feels for her tonight
Hold her, kiss her, tell her everything’s alright
Tonight, she’s waiting for him to start a life
The pain and ghosts from the past
Will never go away
The memory of a lost love
She couldn’t bear betray…
Now she realizes
Life has given her another chance
But she needs him to be
The one who takes a stand
…And put up a fight,
Complain that she went on a date the other night
And tell her what he really feels for her tonight
Hold her, kiss her, tell her everything’s alright
Tonight, she’s waiting for him to start a life
It’s all that she’s been waiting for
And now it seems she hears the sliding of the door…
…And tell her what he feels tonight
…And put up a fight
Complain that she went on a date the other night
And tell her what he really feels for her tonight
Hold her, kiss her, tell her everything’s alright
And tell her what he really feels for her tonight

By the Well
03:41
|
|||
|
I wait by the well
I will not leave here tonight
I’ll rest by the tree
Stare at the stars shining bright
Waiting for her to come back to me
And once again restore my life
She slipped away from me in darkness
Again, I will dream she might return…
…Tonight
I wait by the well
Hoping to see her face appear
Three years have gone by
And yet I feel she’s very near
I used to be able to reach her
So easily going through the well
She slipped away from me in darkness
Again, I will dream she might return…
…Tonight

Prayers in the Wind
01:52
|
|||
|
There is a novice who’s in love
But she won’t admit it yet
This young boxer just proposed
And he’s going to fight again
And she always thinks of him
And she prays for him to win
Yes, she prays into the wind
For an answer…
He’s asked her to leave her chosen path
And to spend her life with him
She fights being drawn to him that way
And focuses on her Lord…
But she always thinks of him,
And she prays for him to win
Yes, she prays into the wind
Yes, she prays into the wind
‘Cause she always thinks of him
And she prays for him to win
Yes, she prays into the wind
For an answer…

Search Eternal
02:43
|
|||
|
The road keeps going on
I’ve been on it so long…
I’m searching for an answer to my plight
Walking through a glade
Memories won’t fade
The pain of loss remains…
I’ve got to find a way
The cursed taste lingered on
Through centuries now gone…
Rejecting all attachments in my life
There’s no more of my kind
To that I am resigned…
I have to make this end
I’ve got to find a way
I’ve got to try to keep it all together
I’ve got to try to keep the pain at bay
I’ve got to try to keep it all together
Keep it all together
Pain at bay
I’ve got to find a way

Wishes from the Ring

There is this girl I know
She lives in my mind all day
But she gives her love to God
If only she loved me the same way
Feeling alive again
I’m feeling alive again
And it’s all because I love her
She lifts me up when I’m in need
And I can’t help myself
Sometimes I’m weak
But with one single word she prevails
Feeling alive again
I’m feeling alive again
And it’s all because I love her
What if she walked away
And married me instead?
And it’s all because I love her
Yes, it’s all because I love her

High School Shenaningans

Again I go
Into the fray
School’s lately been
A battleground for me
This craziness has got to end
It gets to me, I can’t pretend
To fight them all day after day
Exhausts me, it begins to weigh
When can I have
A normal day
Walk through the gate
And no one waits for me?
This craziness has got to end
It gets to me, I can’t pretend
To fight them all day after day
Exhausts me, it begins to weigh
How dare they think I would agree
To date the one who defeats me?
This is the arrogance of men
I’ll always win… It starts again…
It starts again…
This will never end…
It will never end…

In Nerima

|
And I’d give my life for you if I could
Nothing’s the same for me since you stood
Smiling in front of me… Misunderstood
You thought I was no good…
And I may play tough sometimes, even juvenile
Behaviour that you may choose to revile
But I really just want to see you smile
Give me a smile…
And there are these things I feel I keep at bay
I’m brave to fight but I lack the courage to say
What you really mean to me, but today
I’ll keep locking them away...
Down in Nerima
Right by the river
I saw you today
I watched you today

When she asked
If I cared
I said no…
I was scared
Wait…
Kyôko…
Stay!
Made her cry
With my lie
Now, she’s gone…
I’ve got to try
Wait…
Kyôko…
Stay!

Migahawk Madrid, Spain
Solo project of an Anglo-Irish/Spanish musician based in Spain who'd be very happy if just one of those willing to explore his work finds something to connect with and/or relate to. The obvious musical whimsiness is the product of being influenced by all sorts of music and of being occasionally inspired by works of literature and pop culture, as in the album YUME (2021). ... more
Migahawk recommends:
Fantastic acoustic music. A throwback to pre-indie folk days and trends.
