It's OKAY if you don't want to listen

kevinwhitect 13 April 2022

This is a big request. I took on a big project.

I tried to rewrite the backside of Abbey Road (in album model) in more of a life story continuance. The Beatles did it kind of "fractured sequence". I tried to piece an overarching life story thread to it.

"Deeper" is a song of new love and lust. Youth being youth. Heck a lot of folks take up music to attract the opposite sex. The problem? Sacrifices in life choices. Money must be made.

"Black Magic" is next stage. It's the admittance that life choices in sacrifices create relationship consternation.

"The American Dream Trilogy" walks life choices of settlement into choosing the muse.

"Mona" regrets following the muse.

Enjoy the journey, and thanks in advance for long listening. It's a half hour, so grab a cup of your favorite beverage.

Any/all comments warmly appreciated.

Don't waste your good life
On Mona

There's no good reason to go there
You'll find out when she gets close
All too soon.

She'll bring you nothing but sorrow
And you'll start dreading tomorrow
Time is a thing you can't borrow

So cut her loose

Like staying out late on Sunday
And paying for it on Monday
Things just get lost in a vague haze ...
Quite an unpleasant surprise

Hey You

just look at them all
just look at them all
taking the long way home

Not I

I'm smarter than them
And it'll take years to get the way I am

Yes I'm smart
Smart, but lonely

And so I cry
On cold shoulders

If I'm so smart
Then why the hell do I still suffer?
Why the hell do I still try?

Tell me ...

For dreams go on forever
So live for today

And count all your blessings

You've got to
Treasure every day

Dreams are the one place
Where fantasy escapes

But don't bet your life on dreams
For they lead on forever

So live for today

Just count all your blessings
And treasure every day

Don't waste your time
Chasing after dreams
Cause you'll get too tired
To go on

For dreams lead on forever
So live for today

Count all your blessings

You've got to
You've got to

Not waste your good life on Mona
She's just a dream
You can't own her

It's such a risk when you follow
Your heart

She'll bring you nothing but sorrow
And you'll start dreading tomorrow
Time slips away as you follow
Your heart
