Where Is Peace by Garddwr Porffor published on 2022-08-29T19:13:25Z Where Is Peace Can you remember those stories That your father used to tell About those horned devils Rising up from Hell In the seven rings of Hades In the abode of the dead Can we cross the lake of fire To where the departed dwell And we all seek redemption Though we call it different things To be borne into our Heaven Upon an angels wings Trailing clouds of glory Are we such foolish things When the noble savage brings his justice To the deposed kings Oh they lie and they lie again Tell me where is peace There is no children's lantern left Shining in the East and we have no regrets we say Then how can we atone For the caravan of sin And all the evil we have done We all have gods of some sort And we pay them in the end We best pay some attention To what all these signs portend Oh they lie etc Can the wizards spin their spell for you Bring forth your voodoo doll Drink your drink and lift your voice Within Valhalla's halls We all are hollow humans Bereft of divine joy As we drag those empty ideals Within the gates of Troy Will there be transubstantiation Of nonsense into truth Can we make up the things we believe in And not ask for the proof We all are crazy suckers When it comes down in the end We invested our souls in those Ponzi schemes For some extra dividend Oh they lie etc Genre Gothic Comment by Frans Beelaard Your vivacious & sensually soft & energetic spirit spirals around one's senses! Priestess of Sonic ambitions & creations! 2023-01-03T12:15:49Z Comment by OphΓ©lie Yes, love this. 2022-10-19T18:37:29Z Comment by Al Yen Fantastic ! 2022-10-18T17:29:09Z Comment by man On a grill Flows like a tranquil yet slightly develish river, fabulous. 2022-10-18T17:26:19Z Comment by Linda Straub Nice song.

This is wonderful Viv 2022-10-09T19:01:43Z Comment by Ian Stokes Great song Viv! 2022-09-24T22:45:30Z Comment by Wynn Schaible Well for a first-order answer to the title question: ask Vladimir Putin! (but don't expect an answer) Going deeper, a heartfelt and not at all simplistic plea, but sounding so much like Dire Straits (that's not bad!) that i was waiting for the guitar solo. Yes, there are all sorts of questions, but the one that gets ignored is Jesus' to Peter:"But who do YOU say that I am?" 2022-09-23T13:22:04Z Comment by Mike Hilton Great songwriting, well enjoyed. 2022-09-22T23:52:34Z Comment by man On a grill With THAT Voice... straight in. 2022-09-12T23:55:10Z Comment by BoxTox Great song!

Reminds me at Tony Joe White. The song could profit from a laid back blues guitar dropping in some comments. If you are interested, I can add some tones. 2022-09-02T23:31:31Z Comment by JTSunrise Real Good 2022-09-02T05:16:06Z Comment by Jonathan Beckenstein An excellent contemplation in word and sound... asing the eternal human questions for which it seems there are no answers... or no "good" ones. Well done, Viv. 2022-09-01T13:19:25Z Comment by Louis Taverna Also great work with all of the musical components, I hear some organs in there as well, fantastic work! 2022-08-31T13:41:03Z Comment by Louis Taverna I really love the lyrical work here Garddwr! 2022-08-31T13:39:31Z Comment by Dairv First rate songwriting, Viv, brilliantly performed. 2022-08-31T08:18:22Z Comment by Debra Buesking Lots to think about--why am I not surprised?? I enjoy seeing what's up next, Viv. 2022-08-30T15:53:29Z Comment by Little Lone Waltz A folkish voodoo vibe weaves it's spell! 2022-08-30T00:57:22Z Comment by 1234567890 Yep - 'bout the size of it brother. "Life of Brian" meets "Hitchhiker's Guide" meets "Brazil" meets D Alighieri. Lovely stuff. 2022-08-29T21:43:37Z
