Original Single: Pretty Ugly World

Listen to the original single, Pretty Ugly World—an original indie dance pop song I hope you’ll enjoy.

Pretty Ugly World, an original single by p.m.warner

The song was inspired by passages from Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations. There is a section that begins with, “When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly. They are like this because they can’t tell good from evil. But I have seen the beauty of good, and the ugliness of evil, and have recognized that the wrongdoer has a nature related to my own – not of the same blood and birth, but the same mind, and possessing a share of the divine…” It’s worth a read and this post, How To Begin Each Day For Optimal Sanity on Medium has a few choice highlights.

Pretty Ugly World

It’s a pretty ugly world

Talking with a friend about the world we’re in today

Look outside, we cheat and lie, its wrong in every way

She calmly said to me that’s just the way it is

People can be good and bad but don’t start giving in

She said:

It’s a pretty ugly world

Yes, it’s pretty ugly world

Then someone else said that you’re seeing your own self

You have choices to make change or stay oblivious

Reminding me that anger’s poison I can take

Its no good and understood there’s choices that we make

He said:

It’s a pretty ugly world

There are selfish boys and girls

Yes it’s a pretty ugly world

But there are loving boys and girls

Since school yard differences we somehow made it work

There’s no place for hatred now so please don’t make it worse

I said

It’s a pretty ugly world

There are selfish boys and girls

Yes it’s a pretty ugly world

But can it mean much more for us?

It’s a pretty ugly world

There are selfish boys and girls

But there are turtles in the sea

And there’s a place for you and me

Original Pop Song: Why Can’t We

original pop song why cant we

Original pop song Why Can’t We asks a question—can we change our course of tragic violence or will we continue to look the other way?

Writing this during the holiday season of celebrations, I thought of all those who couldn’t be with their friends and family anymore. It’s unacceptable that gun violence is a common occurrence and I hope we all can effect change.

Why Can’t We

Lyrics:

Why Can’t We

Wakes up to new elation

Runs fingers through her hair

Then quickly scrolls through texts and

Snaps an IG in the mirror

Now walking to the classroom

She hears them droning on

They turn around to smile but…

She feels like something’s wrong

Then sudden shouts explosions

Thick gunfire punches through

When the fury dies and smoke clears

There’s countless lying still

On a bright and sunlit morning

She draws her final breath

Lets go of a note in silence

And this is all it said:

Why can’t we

Do anything

Why can’t we

Hear their screams

Only a few days later

Their memories fade away

Forgotten ‘til the next time

Like the crumpled note that read:

Why can’t we

End a fucking thing

Why can’t we

Listen to the screams

Why can’t we

(Except count the dead)

End a fucking thing

(Look the other way instead)

Why can’t we

(Except count the dead)

Whispers to a scream

(Look the other way instead)

Oh we can count the dead

Look the other way instead

Oh we can count the dead

And look the other way instead

Patterns: Listen To The New Electropop Track

Patterns Electropop

Patterns, the new electropop track by p.m.warner

Dreams, so easy to lose sight of, to let fall away. A recent night outside, I remembered to look up and lose myself in the stars. The sky glowed with uncountable numbers of them. With something this big, immense and unknowable, who am I to stop dreaming? I wanted to write something that captured that spirit. To always keep your dreams, because they really will set you free.

 

Lyrics

Patterns

Calling all the stars

Doesn’t matter where we are

The universe can seem

Cold and unfeeling

And as the patterns rise

There’s whispers from the skies

You’re looking too far down

Don’t ever close your eyes

 

A fascinating scene

Doesn’t matter where you’ve been

A broken vein of light

Cuts through the soundless night

Patterns never seen

There’s always time to sleep

This is your entrance

Remembering to dream

 

Standing where you are

When everything it seems so far

A pulsing rhythm climbs

Up from your bleeding heart

This time is yours to be

These patterns to be seen

Believe in who you are

No matter where you’ve been

 

All you need

Is a little empathy

Dare to dream

of a single symphony

 

All you need is a little empathy

(Doesn’t matter if we fall, it only matters if that’s all)

Dare to scheme a simple symphony

(Never let go of your dreams its the only way to be)

It’s all right

Let them call it fantasy

(Keep on holding to your scene, that’s all you have to believe)

‘Cause all we need

Is a little time to dream

(We’ll never let go of our dreams, its all we have to remain free)

Dedicated to all of you with dreams and the perseverance to keep moving forward.

Move

Let’s take a little time

Read between the lines

You’re a hundred miles away

While they’re turning out the lights

 

Looking to the skies

Heard this all your life

A thousand miles away

Is where your heart lies

 

So what I am trying to say

Your answer’s far away

You’re speaking through your heart

You need to break away

 

(So yeah) you’ve got to move on

You’re on your own
You’ve got to move on
Sometimes you walk alone

 

Reaching for the stars

Who knows where they are

A million miles away

Never let them fade

 

What I am trying to say

The answer’s far away

Speaking through your art

It’s time to break away

(So yeah) you’ve got to move on

You’re on your own
You’ve got to be strong
Sometimes you walk alone

Let’s take a little time
