Music&Lyrics: Bastiaan Kooman Sax & Clarinet: Dave McKeown Other instruments: Bastiaan Kooman English Translation & Dutch Lyrics: [English translation] OUTLAWED outlawed in camps seeking refugee from the war scared, exhausted fearful of every rumor about new disasters the occupier and his brutal rule waiting for peace in the cold outside behind the fires the long day darkens the hours slide in the black night a path of star gravel lightens up are you going back home human child? outlawed in camps seeking refugee from the war muddling in tents squatting near the sick without money and food standing in line with a sigh waiting for peace in the cold outside behind the fires the long day darkens the hours slide in the black night a path of star gravel lightens up are you going back home human child? where you were born, to which god you pray when all is lost, it's this you will find: a helping hand is stronger than a fist why is our world not a bigger home? [Dutch lyrics] VOGELVRIJ vogelvrij, in kampen voor de oorlog op de vlucht kopschuw, moegestreden beducht voor elk gerucht over nieuwe rampen de bezetter en de tucht wachtend op de vrede in de koude buitenlucht achter de vuren dimt de lange dag glijden de uren in de zwarte nacht licht er een pad op van sterrengrind ga je naar huis terug mensenkind? vogelvrij, in kampen voor de oorlog op de vlucht modderend in tenten bij de zieken neergehurkt zonder geld en eten in de rij staand met een zucht wachtend op de vrede in de koude buitenlucht achter de vuren dimt de lange dag glijden de uren in de zwarte nacht licht er een pad op van sterrengrind ga je naar huis terug mensenkind? waar je bent geboren, tot welke god je bidt als alles is verloren, vind je enkel dit: een helpende hand is sterker dan een vuist waarom is de wereld geen groter thuis’

lyrics: The smell of rain against my window nothing wil be done without further ado Now I'm all alone and I'm afraid tonight the siren went off again They hit me blindfolded me left me lying in a heap They took my wife they took my kids I'm all alone this is hell on earth (repeating in background: he's coming now... he's coming... this town of evil doers... has taken its toll.. ) This town of evil doers has taken its toll I'd rather go than be fed to the birds I'm on my way Goodbye After the rain I feel clear and focused again After the rain I feel clear and focused again ... After the rain I can feel focused again written, produced and recorded by Vinzenz van Dyck © Ghosts having breakfast 2015

about

This album is built around a musical community,and an idea i had after seeing the horrific scenes in syria and the middle east.
millions of innocent people losing there homes and livelihoods and there lifes though the cruel act of war.
I thought if music can help raise some money [even a little]just to help then i would have a go at trying to raise some money ..all proceeds from this album will go to unicef to help with food ..shelter ..and safety.
