about

Folk rock track about written after walking on the beach at home in Wales, late one night in summer.

lyrics

“In the age of the atomic clock
I hear the slave atom whisper and rock
Her heart beats deep in the rock
In readiness
Far above me the satellite
Hits the world through the word box of light
Far away from the sweet morning light
In this wilderness

“But I wish that I did not feel
So Far From My Home

“Gonna reach down deep in the rock
Find my way through the rupture and shock
He heart beats deep in the rock
In tenderness
I’m gonna cry out like a prisoner in the dock
I’m gonna break the chain and the lock
Gonna end this deep mental block
In readiness

“But I wish that I did not feel
So Far From My Home

“I’m gonna hold my head to the heights
I’m gonna be like a beacon of light
I’m gonna make my talent shine bright
In this wilderness

“But I wish that I did not feel
So Far From My Home”

about

Daniel McBrearty Ghent, Belgium

I write and play music for fun and to stay sane. Mostly saxophone, occasionally clarinet, but I do the singer-songwrtiter thing as well.

I do it for my own satisfaction and pleasure, but if people (you) like it, well, that’s great. I’ve also messed around with making music videos too (but these days I don’t have time), and those you can find on YT (link is at the top).
