"Done With Gravity" Lyrics

Watch the video here.

(Verse 1)

No, No, I don't want to cry, cry

I don't want to lie, lie

and wait for the World to shatter

No, No, I don't want to give up

I don't want to end up surrounded by all the clatter.

(Bridge 1)

I'm done with gravity

I won't hit the ground

I'm going to touch eternity

(Verse 2)

No, No, I will not stand by, by

I'm not gonna lie, lie

about all my hearts intentions

No, no, I will not surrender

I'm not going under

I've got a new direction

(Bridge 2)

I'm done with negatives

I'm not gonna drown

This is my time to finally live

(Chorus)

I'm done with Gravity

I will not be bound

I'm done with Gravity

I'm not going down

I'm up high

In the sky

In the Stratosphere

I'm done with

I'm done with

I'm done with Gravity

(Repeat Chorus)

Cerulean Jade Update 11-05-2012

(Doing some Green Screen testing for the music video)

The major piece of news is that Steven, my brother Robbie, and I are working on a music video for an original song Steven and I are writing; the song is in the fun electric pop style we've used in "Payphone" and "Someone Like you."  We're still developing music video ideas, but we've been experimenting, and the effects we're working on are really cool.  Naturally I'm a little biased :0)  But I'm excited with what we're working on.  Green screen = many fun opportunities.  Our goal is to have the song released on an EP (with another original song, karaoke tracks, and a couple instrumental songs) no later then the middle of next month.  So much to do in such a short amount of time!!  But it's exciting.

And I'm still working on the Jason Mraz song, "Living in the Moment," on the guitalele.  That's coming soon.

Steven and I learned a lot this week along with my brother Robbie.  We were going to do a movie review series.  We did a trial run with the Tinker Bell movie, and were working on doing Wreck-It Ralph.  The problem was that in order for us to produce a quality Youtube video series, it would take 3-4 days out of the week to put it together; it was taking time away from what was most important to us.  Music and the possibility of making cool videos.  So after a week going down the wrong path, we turned ourselves around.  There's still a possibility of having a movie review show in the future, but at this time it's not right.  Ah!  At least we lost only a week and not more.  But now we're focused and enjoying the work.

Dream Maze Lyrics

Dream Maze

There’s no way out

Walls continue on forever, all around

There’s no doorway

Don’t know where to go

Aimlessly, moving along

I am trapped in silence

Not a voice to lead me to my home

There’s no one to fallow

Which direction?

No instructions.

Walking through this world all alone

Do I dream?

Is this real or just imagined? I can’t tell.

Ghostly shadows

Dancing through the night

Whispering, sights unseen.

Slowing slipping under

Giving in to all this Fantasy

Where this leads, I wonder

Going Foreword

I’ll go upward

Searching this Dream Maze on my own

Can I fly above this tapestry?

  This dream maze?

  I'll go high so I can truly see

  The walls that bind me

so I can finally be free

Be free

Now I see

All the walls that still surround me has no end

Painted faces

Pointing endlessly

Tempting me, I will not go

Storm clouds quickly gather

Circling winds cut through the white washed leaves

Masking all perception

Want to crumble

Cannot stumble

Open a doorway to the light.

Can I fly above this tapestry

  This dream maze

  I'll go high and I can truly see

  The walls that bound me, 

and now I'll  finally be free

Be free

Launching Dream Maze and Cerulean Jade

 

 (Day 2 of the 365 day photo challenge)

My brother Steven and I are launching a new musical duo called Cerulean Jade.  For the last several months we've been working on our new song, Dream Maze, to go online.  It's been quite a process.  Many ups and downs and learning curves, trying to figure out what works and trying not to bite off more then we can chew, which we have from time to time.  

Yesterday we took our song on the road to hear how the final master sounds in my Dad's car.  It was an important test, because when we tried to master my two Christmas songs back in 2010, the arrangement completely disappeared on his system, and we could not figure out how to fix the problem.  But this time the master worked!  And the arrangement was easy to hear.

(Day 3 of the 365 day photo challenge)

Today was the next step:  Getting it entered on CD Baby.  The song is still being proccesed on their site, and it's going to take a few more days, likely the middle of next week or so, for the song to appear on iTunes.  It's a huge step, because we've decided to mass distribute the song, and we have no idea how people are going to like it.  We're being true to ourselves musically, and as an artist that's very important.  Hoping for the best!  And I can't wait to get started on the next song.  It's fun and upbeat, and I get to sing with sass.

Always,

Sarah
