Truth

Truth Sunset Sky

Truth is a new dance pop song for your listening and other activities pleasure. Turn it up. The chorus slaps.

Sunset Sky – Truth

Truth was fun and painful to make. Critical thinking is important to me and yet, so many choose to believe the narrative that works best for them. I don’t understand that. You are allowed to change your mind. You are allowed to listen to others. Disagreement is absolutely part of the deal. But to just believe what you like to hear versus thinking about it, well, it gets tiring.

I know I can be wrong. I wish the same for others.

Enjoy and seriously, the chorus is catchy as hell. Maybe you need to play it for someone in your life.

Truth lyrics

lyrics are for the chorus only – the transcript for the entire dialogue would go for paragraphs

I know it’s hard to swallow

but you might not be right

please understand its not about you

just a small insight

I know it’s hard to swallow

but you might not be right

please understand its not about you

just a small insight

i hope your world view

allows for a second thought

and standing in others shoes

because you might be wrong

not trying to be a hero 

but you might not be right

it might not be all about you

just another side

i hope another story

allows for a little pause

standing in others’ shoes

hope you heard this song

Wake Up

Sunset Sky Wake Up

Wake Up! Haha. Seeing if you were paying attention. Wake Up is about your dreams, hopes, music and listening to them.

Sunset Sky – Wake Up

Life can get stressful. An immediate escape is music and occasionally a dream. Sometimes dreams can have such an effect, when you wake up, you want to return to that world. At times, it is a completely different universe with endless opportunities to explore and many times your mind attempting to make sense — in a surreal environment — of whatever is on your mind. Then there are the dreams that are so lovely that when you wake up the real world and its problems seem… depressing. I guess the point is that music and dreams can represent hope and it’s important to acknowledge. Those worlds also seem to exist in a different dimension and to diminish them as imaginary would be a tragedy.

Wake Up – Lyrics

was it all a dream

where we had everything

or it’s another day

waking up to nothing

can imagine the night  

enveloped in azure lights

a diamond setting sun

and we want for nothing

clouds begin to spread

skies melt overhead

we’re where we need to be

and it’s finally happening

oh god let’s wakeup

oh it’s time to wake up

time to get up

all the dreams are killing me

was it all in my head

thinking our dreams were dead

visions with perspective

not waking up to nothing

oh it’s time to wake up

time to get up

all the dreams are killing me

oh when we wake up

don’t be afraid to reach for

all the dreams that we have seen

oh it’s time to wake up

time to get up

all these dreams are reality

Listen to October by Sunset Sky

What to write about this track? I think the plucks underneath the “listen” part is what I woke up to one morning. I had no idea what to do with it for a while. Then it started coming together. Wanted to capture the indifference of changing seasons while still remaining hopeful, even as the days get darker. I hope you enjoy.

Listen to October Lyrics

standing on the precipice

a feeling over time

edges eroding below

this was never mine

the waves are always crashing in

can’t see beyond the tide

let the current pull you in

the answers are inside

ocean swells so mightily

carries me away

another journey without an end

as night turns into day

the other side is calling me

fleeting words to say

ravaged waves of my embrace

as i let it wash away

listen to october

listen to the sea

all i have is a photograph

scattered to the wind

torn to pieces over time

this is where it ends

all i have is a photograph

scattered to the sun

finding pieces of our lives

do they matter to anyone

feeling so insignificant

when looking up above

doesn’t mean nothing matters here

that our lives are meaningless

It’s Time

It's Time Image

It’s Time is another pretty good dance track. You should listen to it. Maybe even dance.

Bandcamp

Spotify

Sunset Sky

Fun, short and danceable. Yay. A little bit of escapism for you. Go. Be free.

It’s Time Lyrics

feels so right to get it all outside

tried too hard to keep in all my life

past the t… to let it all come out

t… to give yourself the room to shout

-it’s time-

never meant to run away and hide

never meant to ignore other sides

now is the t… you’re coming out to play

can’t believe its going to start today

-it’s t…!- 

maybe its a second chance

to let it all go and dance

baby you’ve come so far 

-t… to let them know who you are

this is your second chance

to let it all go and dance

baby you’ve come so far 

-t… to tell them all who you are

On a slightly related note – have you ever visited on of those recipe blogs, only to have to sort through a life story’ worth of content before you can find the actual item you’re looking for? Blame it on Toast SEO or, just at SEO practices in general. It literally tells you that your page will not rank well if you don’t include at least 300 words! Which isn’t really true BTW. Not many folks visit the site regardless. (: But seriously, folks want to get right to the point and so do I, dear reader. That’s why I am writing a bunch of garbage at the END of this post. I really do hope you enjoy “It’s Time” but I am not egotistical enough to think you also really want to read a bunch of verbal filler before getting to it.

Thank You

Thank You by Sunset Sky

Thank You is the latest dance track from Sunset Sky. It’s good. You should listen to it.

Bandcamp

Spotify

This was a track that took a little time. I didn’t want to get too precious, but the mixing of voice and beat was essential to keeping the song’s drive. The message was cathartic as well. I hope you enjoy.

Thank You Lyrics

what you gonna do when it hits you

based a life on others views

what you gonna do when you see thru

all the lies that were fed to you

bowing down to a false regime

don’t tell me you’ll follow anything

thinking they want to let you in 

you’ll get keys to their kingdom

sorry

these old beliefs are all the same 

no one really has to take the blame

you don’t see they’re lying to you

they don’t have a fucking clue

wanting to tear each other apart

why do you think that really starts

to be so easy to manipulate

when will you see it’s all a mistake

so sorry

when everything falls apart do you know who you really are

what can you do what do you do where do you turn its hard

you’re making my own views so clear i choose love not hate

so i’ve got to thank you

know you really think that you are in

living out someone’s opinion 

when will it finally be the time 

to admit to swallowing all their lines

tell me you think they really care

don’t know if they’re really there

maybe it’s time to evaluate

why you’re giving into all this hate

when everything falls apart do you know who you really are

what can you do what do you do where do you turn its hard

you’re making my own views so clear i choose love not hate

so i’ve got to thank you

what do you really want to be

are you allowing you to see

the worlds wide open for you and me

can you tell me something 

i’ve got to thank you

Everything

Everything

Everything is a tad longer (3:44) than intended but still worth the ride. Take a listen:

Bandcamp

Spotify

Sunset Sky – Everything

Everything almost didn’t happen. It was part of a series of songs that felt like they were going nowhere. I was wondering if writer’s block had set in, but as I circulated through a few songs to reset the ears, this one suddenly had a chorus. Not sure where it came from, but it made sense and the rest of the song began to click into place. I broke up the drums a bit and hope you enjoy the beat – as well as the breaks.

Everything – Lyrics

you are everything

every-thing to me

have you ever played the game

or has everything stayed the same

feel like every-thing you’ve ever done

is pouring fire on the sun 

have you ever felt the rain

step outside your window pane

let it soak through til it ends

offer the universe amends

i see…

can you chase the clouds away

light a fire to every-thing

burn it to the ground

today 

memories slowly fade away

like ashes in summer rain

every-thing can mend

this way

can you chase the clouds away

light a fire to every-thing

burn it to the ground

today 

memories slowly fade away

like ashes in summer rain

every-thing can mend

this way

the last pictures will remain

while sunset skies begin to grey

but yesterday was not

in vain 

you are every thing

every thing to me

Time to Dance pretty much says it all. Enjoy the latest dance single from Sunset Sky.

BandCamp

Spotify

Time to Dance – Sunset Sky

There’s not much to say about this one. The track came about with a little vocal experimentation and by setting one track off by two beats. It’s a tight fast melodic dance song with plenty of moving parts to keep your ear engaged. Enjoy. And Dance!

Time to Dance Lyrics

it’s not the whole story

it hasn’t been told

this place isn’t safe for you

if i may be so bold

beware the vampires lurking

under the moon

there are monsters out here

they’ll find you

when the world’s on fire

what can we do

try to put out all the flames or

spend last minutes with you

we’re dancing on the 

ashes of our lives

we’re dancing on the 

remnants of the lies

but i wanna dance

don’t you

always make time

won’t you

we’re dancing on the 

ashes of our lives

we’re dancing on the 

remnants of the lies

but i wanna dance

don’t you

always make time

won’t you

Welcome To Your World Lyrics

how many years have gone by

tracing the wrinkles by my eyes

it didn’t seem that long ago

when i was living for the show

bienvenue a mon monde

soon it will all be yours

while your memories fade away

but for me it’s still a surprise

when i think about the times

long summer days in Spain and back

those warm cold nights in Paris France

welcome to your life

passing before your eyes

reflecting on all you’ve become

welcome to my world

soon it will all be yours

make your memories while you can

those nights don’t seem so far away

when we left we swore we’d return there someday

someday

bienvenue dans votre monde

to every boy and girl

there’s no going back 

but here’s another chance

bienvenue dans votre monde

to every boy and girl

there’s no turning back 

so here’s another chance

whatever happens

we all fade away

i made mistakes

and here i am today

looking in a mirror 

wondering how time has passed

didn’t seem so long ago,

those nights in Paris France…

Let Go by Sunset Sky

Let Go Lyrics

oh let’s go

we can run away i know

don’t

until you’re able to say

i’ll  

while you say you’re moving on

i don’t know

what will happen if we hear this song

you can’t deny

the reason why

when you finally see

the sky

oh i know

we’re diving into the unknown

but let’s see

maybe it’s dark enough to dream

you can’t deny

the reason why

when you finally see… 

the sky

you can’t deny

the reason why

the world begins

to open wide

it’s so easy to say

so much harder to be 

letting in the spirit

that sets you free

letting go of the known

doesn’t come naturally

but in your journey you’ll find

you have everything you need 

inside

oh you can’t hide 

you’re ready to fly

and your worlds 

are going to collide

you will realize

there’s nothing to hide

everything you need

is inside

Thinking About It

Thinking about it: it’s not about appearance | it’s not about the fame | well even if we aren’t heard | i’d love you all the same

Thinking About It – A Synthpop Single

This song is a love letter to unconditional love.

We’ve all had something or someone that even through ups and downs, you always stuck with. You couldn’t quit. Passion like that can’t just shut down – even if sometimes you wish it would. If you have something or someone like that in your life, this song is for you.

If you haven’t found it yet, you will. Believe me.

Sunset Sky on YouTube

Lyrics

been thinking about you

i’m thinking all the time

what is it about you

why you always on my mind

it’s not about appearance (oh no)

it’s not about the fame

well even if we aren’t heard

i’d love you all the same

tai

what is it about you

oh it’s pleasure and pain

well it can be frustrating

always come to you again

they say you complete me

been dying to say

that even when i’m angry

you’re the reason i’m ok

tai

living in the shadows

it’s not the only way

we’re making noise together

the world will hear someday

thinking all the time

what is it about you

you’re always on my mind
