While I'm here, allow me to share another song...
This is "Someone Else's Sun," a short tale of a man who goes to bed, sleeps thru the night, but wakes up in a different dimension or timeline, from the mind of a strange lyricist... ME!

Waking up I look outside
The trees and the sky don’t seem to match
There’s something wrong with the atmosphere
Nothing clicks like key in latch

My walls are Gödel Escher, Bach,
The floor it rumbles, rocks and...While I'm here, allow me to share another song...

Someone Else’s Sun
©2009/2018, MelMul Music, LLC

Waking up I look outside
The trees and the sky don’t seem to match
There’s something wrong with the atmosphere
Nothing clicks like key in latch

My walls are Gödel Escher, Bach,
The floor it rumbles, rocks and sways
Mind is playing tricks on me
Like in my bolder acid days

I stretch it off but it won’t go
Shake my head but there’s no glow
The colors, dark, feelings sparse,
It must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
Someone else’s sun!

Someone else’s sun is shining down on me.
This just can’t be real, ‘cause I’m not feeling free.
A stain across my field of view,
There’s nothing more that I can do.
I’ve lost the star that makes me shine,
This must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun,
Must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
Someone else’s sun!
(back to opening riff)

Now, I face a dead-end day
With nothing here to try and save
Surrender to the winds that toss and turn
And not recoil, become a slave
(Lead, 8 bar)

Someone else’s sun is shining down on me.
This just can’t be real, ‘cause I’m not feeling free.
A stain across my field of view,
There’s nothing more that I can do.
I’ve lost the star that makes me shine,
This must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun,
Must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
Someone else’s sun!
(Back to opening riff)

(Bridge)
I’m trying to survive breathing someone else’s air!
In someone else’s house, in someone else’s hair!
Where the hell did my world go when I laid my body down to rest?
I’m just going to give it up, release the ghost and head on down!

Someone else’s sun is shining down on me.
This just can’t be real, ‘cause I’m not feeling free.
A stain across my field of view,
There’s nothing more that I can do.
I’ve lost the star that makes me shine,
This must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun,
Must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
Someone else’s sun!

I’ve lost the star that made me shine
This must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
Must be someone else’s sun
(opening riff to fade)
