I See Everything Walking in the darkness No light in the skies I see the magic in their eyes True love is the only thing That moves us to the light Everything will be all right Everybody’s counting On nothing being true Everyone seems so blue I see everything I see everything Salvation is the goal here No chance for it to be Everybody looks but no one sees People think I see it all I only know what’s real I just want everyone to heal I’m not the only one That has this sight Knowing between wrong and right I see everything I see everything Know your faith is hopeless That man in the sky But no one seems to know why I can see the forest You can see the trees People get off your knees We can find some meaning In everything we see Love is there for you and me I see everything, I see everything I see everything, I see you ©2023

TODAY We can walk through this life alone We can love and lose and atone But I want you by my side 
 Pain and loss come every day We can't make them go away But I want you by my side 
 I want to see the sunlight land on your face I can't believe we ever found this place, Today 
 We can never leave the past behind Our dark deeds were so unkind But I want you by my side 
 We found each other but it’s not too late Surrounded by love we fight the hate Yeah I want you by my side I want to see the sunlight land on your face I can't believe we ever found this place, Today Dark corners wait up ahead Don't let them come into your head But I want you by my side We walk together into the sun Our new lives have just begun I always want you by my side 
 I want to see the sunlight land on your face I can't believe we ever found this place I want to see the sunlight land on your face I can't believe we ever found this place, Today Today Today Today ©2023

When They Lie Love becomes hate In the span of the moment And everything works Or maybe it doesn’t No one will know If we don’t ever tell ‘em I can’t complain When they try to bless ‘em I can’t believe it I can’t believe it No I can’t believe it, When they lie We walk the Roman steps Into the land of the gods Others will look away No more odds and sods Bring ‘em to the ground Make them feel your love We hold back the meaning And we never look above I can’t believe it I can’t believe it No I can’t believe it, When they lie Keep on marching Make your hearts bleed For the blood of the dawn And we know the need Our brains ache anew As we listen to the noise Begin to move forward Leave the rest to the boys I can’t believe it I can’t believe it No I can’t believe it, When they lie I can’t believe it I can’t believe it No I can’t believe it, When they lie ©2023

Never Believe Memories, floating through my head A cloudless night, lays ahead The prophets talk, about a man in the sky I always say I don’t know why The bible tells tales, of love and war Faith and hate, and there’s so much more Kill your wife, kill your son For their actions, can’t be undone You’ll Never Make Me A Believer No I’ll never believe The pain of millions, troubles my heart The lies of the prophets, it’s not a start Feed the hungry, heal the sick It’s only love, it’s not a trick Who truly does walk the walk Cares for others, isn’t all talk Don’t try to show your penance Feel the love, feel the transcendence You’ll Never Make Me A Believer No I’ll never believe You’ll Never Make Me A Believer No I’ll never believe Don’t let your guilt run wild and free Just feel the love, and try to be Just feel the love, and try to be ©2023

I Won’t Be Your Man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I see you coming, coming my way You’re wasting your time, wasting my time I don’t need you in my life You’ll never be mine, never be mine I can’t be your savior I’m not gonna be your everything I won’t be your hero I don’t need the baggage you bring I see the look in your eyes And you’re wasting your time I see you staring back at me But you’re not mine I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man Baby I can tell you You’re simply not, not for me Anything I want in my life Is coming my way, yeah is coming my way If there’s something, something you need Look somewhere else, yeah look somewhere else I’ve got another woman, oh yeah For whom my heart melts, whom my heart melts I see the look in your eyes And you’re wasting your time I see you staring back at me But you’re not mine I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man I won’t be your man ©2023

Who Are You To Keep Us In Line I’m tired of this world making a fool of us We gotta fight back and end this fuss Nothing happens when we ignore the lies Isn’t it sad when we hear their cries Bring radio silence, it’s the only way Here we go, you know what they say Ride ‘em hard and ride ‘em fast It’s all we can do to make it last Who are you to keep us in line Who are you to say it’s all fine Death is nothing to someone who lives Life is something to those who give Keep on moving, moving along Keep on singing, singing that song We never learn to handle the strife Keeping time as we march through life Can’t keep our thoughts in our head We lash out and love the hate instead Who are you to keep us in line Who are you to say it’s all fine Drop the hate to live another day Drop the hate, and we can all stay Make the peace and make them see That we all count, and still be free Tell the truth, hope the lies will die Only the truth, they’ll soon know why Keep the love, is what we say Drop the hate, and we can all stay Who are you to keep us in line Who are you to say it’s all fine Who are you to keep us in line Who are you to say it’s all fine ©2023

Come Back For Me In my dreams. It’s you that I see In my heart, you’re feeling me You’ve been gone, so very long And I don’t know, what went wrong I know you’ll come back I never thought you would go I know you’ll come back Come back for me The time we spent, I can’t forget The shape of you was heaven sent A passionate sigh, a melted bliss I never knew, it could be like this I know you’ll come back I never thought you would go I know you’ll come back Come back for me Remember that time you cast your spell Even then I knew, that all was well Our love was real, and we knew it was so I never thought that you would go I know you’ll come back I never thought you would go I know you’ll come back. Come back for me Try as I can, I can’t let you go Let’s keep on, moving real slow Don’t let me go, or lose that dream I want to feel that passion stream I know you’ll come back I never thought you would go I know you’ll come back Come back for me I know you’ll come back I never thought you would go I know you’ll come back Come back for me Come back for me ©2023

The Darkness In Me I feel the darkness in me With nowhere else to go I smell the blood of the innocents But the world will never know But the world will never know Fall down with sin No love in my heart The slaves in the fields Not a good start Love is nowhere That I’m gonna be The heart of darkness So hard to see I can see, how it’s gonna be I can see the darkness in me In me His eyes are wide shut Bloodless and cold Held for ransom I’m just not that bold Memory is so short The road is so long The past is behind As I move along I can see, how it’s gonna be I can see the darkness in me I can see, how it’s gonna be I can see the darkness in me In me In me In me ©2023

Into the Void There’s more time behind me Than there is ahead I try to be more social now But I still feel the dread I want to recapture the moments yeah Make me feel so alive Yet they slip away too fast Before they arrive Into the void Into the void Into the void, Is where I am Being creative fills my soul Plans made, but not met Scared if I win, scared if I lose I’m hopeful with some regret When I look back into my life Time spent and time lost I’m so busy and always bored I can’t believe the cost Into the void Into the void Into the void, Is where I am Melodies come and melodies go I can’t pin down the one The flow is easy, but also hard And it’s never done Help me please, unstick my mind Get me off of this cloud I know that your love is real And it makes me so proud Into the void Into the void Into the void, Is where I am ©2023

Build Another Mall He walked up to me and said I’m free I nodded my head and said I believe He skipped off joyfully down the street When a car came ‘round and knocked him off his feet I was gettin’ kind of cold and went into a store When a thief ran in and said I need more He asked for my wallet, I told him I had none So he took everything he could and went on the run To those who have nothing and to those who have more What are we doing, what are we fighting for The illusions are grand but the rewards are small It’s a cheap way out to build another mall A little while later a woman walked by A balloon in her hand and a nasty black eye She handed me the balloon and told me to wait She said she was going to a rally and needed to integrate I went to get a meal and tried to pay cash The waitress said, honey, that will never last As I walked out a young man he came undone Said, everyone on the floor cause I’ve got a gun To those who have nothing and to those who have more What are we doing, what are we fighting for The illusions are grand but the rewards are small It’s a cheap way out to build another mall ©2023

The Blood Of The Lamb He grew up in love In a home so hidden Had all he wanted Nothing was forbidden His talent was admired But he felt like a liar The girls all wanted him There was so much desire Hope and love It’s what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay Hope and love It’s what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay The blood of the lamb Or the wafer and the wine He was torn between The glory and the crime As his fame really grew His conscience was torn From Heaven or Hell His fate was born Hope and love It’s what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay Hope and love It’s what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay He played to his fans On that fateful night Out on the street Nothing was right His life was taken By a man with a gun His soul flew away Like a cat on the run Hope and love It’s what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay Hope and love It’s just what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay Only sorrow and grief Remain to this day Hope and love It’s what we say Hope and love It’s what we say The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay The blood of the lamb Is the price we pay ©2023

You Know It’s True Troubled times, troubled past, I don’t know what really lasts, any more On my way to nowhere, I don’t know and I don’t care, any more But I keep thinking of you. I hope you know, you know it’s true. Your love still pulls, pulls me through…it pulls me through Keep on walking down this lonely road, with my soul, with my load, I’m still moving I see your face in every door, every day I want you more, I keep hoping Cause I, I keep thinking of you. I hope you know, you know it’s true. Your love still pulls, it pulls me through…pulls me through 1,2,3,4 The day you left you closed the door, leaving me with nothing more, I keep thinking What we had seemed so real, I remember how you made me feel, I’m so wasted Cause I, I keep thinking of you. I hope you know it makes me blue There’s nothing more that I can do…I can do ©2023

Don’t Judge Me I keep running from town to town There’s not a woman that can hold me down I like the loving, but I’ll leave you alone You’ll be mad, but you’ll like my tone… Like my tone Now and then I’m outside the law You gotta know, I like living raw I’ll cheat and steal, it’s just a game Love me or hate me, it’s all the same… It’s all the same Don’t judge me, this is how I roll To live my life, you gotta be bold Don’t judge me, this is how I roll To live my life, you gotta be bold Oh yeah, yeah, yeah I hear the lord is coming for me Here’s hoping he can set me free Save my life, save my soul Don’t wanna die before I get old… Before I get old Don’t judge me, this is how I roll To live my life, you gotta be bold Don’t judge me, this is how I roll To live my life, you gotta be bold Oh yeah, yeah, yeah ©2023

about

This fourth album is perhaps the most ambitious. With 15 tracks we have some songs that are heavy, almost metal, some grunge, some straight up rock, and some gentle acoustic songs.

We hope you enjoy this album!

about

Scott Leslie Vero Beach, Florida

I’m a self-taught guitarist/songwriter and my influences are from the amazing music of the 60’s and 70's. In the late 60’s/early 70’s I had the good fortune to be a part-time roadie working the DC area, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York for a number of bands. They included; The Jeff Beck Group, Ten Years After, The Doors, The Who, ELP and many others. So I had some interesting influences. ... more
