Whispers and Screams   by Tim Koberstein

Somewhere in Indiana dwells an ambitious young poet of Swing. 30 cuts is probably 20 too many, but what cuts is the ambitions (big, juicy) and the chops (voice is monotone, production varied, clever). He's got a shot. compact disk


MEMORY

Lyrics by Tim Koberstein

Music by Scott Dubbs, Drew Bowman and Hamed Anwarzai

And your sick of it all coming down

in front of your face

Wasn't it was, was it supposed to be

Me and you together forever

And your running away again.....

And your running away again.....

(CHORUS = **)

**(Can you remember...

Can you

forgive this poison memory

I won't let this Go

I won't let this Go)**

And your sick of it all coming down

Around your place....

Wasn't it was, it was, was it supposed to be

Me and you together forever

And your running away again

And your running away again

(CHORUS)

Pressure (echo)

Can we do no wrong....

Can...

We...

Do..

No wrong...

Can you remember

Can..

You remember..

Can you remember

CAN YOU REMEMBER

BEAUTIFULLY EMPTY

Lyrics by Tim Koberstein

Music by Scott Dubbs, Drew Bowman and Hamed Anwarzai

Nothing you can say

Could walk me

Out...

Of hell....today

Nothing you could do

To wash the dust

Covered..

Time..

Away (echo)

(CHORUS = **)

**Nothing you could say to me...

Show me a better way to be...Where

everything hasn't gone and crawled away from me

And there's nothing you could do

To show me a better way.....

A better way out of hell today**

When passion cries above a whisper

When your heaven just seems so far away...

I, have nothing of worth to say...

And I..

Am...

Weaker for trying to be alive (echo)

(CHORUS)

And theres nothing you could say......

Nothing you could do......

When your life gets close

when your life comes back to you...

And I was once

One to be proud of...

And I could see through your painted window

And now the only thing thats been

Left here so carelessly is me....

Is..

Me

When all that was...

Is now gone

And theres no where left for my soul to run and

How..

Can I explain..

And how can I justify when there's no blame

And everythings just given away that...

Little to fill the space where you

Stood so beautifully empty.....

And it would be a lie

If I said that inside

I didn't want

A chance to take back all this time

And theres nothing you could say..

Nothing you could do..

When your life gets close

When your life comes crawling back to you...

I once was

One to be proud of

And I could see through your painted window

And now the only thing thats left...

Left here so carelessly is me....

Is..

Me.......

Nothing you could do

Nothing you could say...

Nothing you could do...

Nothing left for us to SAY (echo)

Just get a better grip on that dead hand shake.....

Just get a better grip on that dead hand shake.....

Just get a better grip on that dead hand shake.....

Just get a better grip on that..

Dead hand shake (whispered)

Coming soon!! All lyrics from Oceans Of Absence

Poems by Koberstein, Minnick & Spitler

Listening to You

by Tim Koberstein

Right now I'm empty and need filling.

Somewhere south a guy waits to come back,

to start again.

In Oklahoma a mother,

a child,

and a dream,

wait for the end to get become better.

Down the street a hero,

in his own right,

is getting ready to give up,

because he?s tired and needs to sleep,

a little longer.

A few blocks away is,

a good friend,

I hardly ever see anymore.

A little high in between,

but then I go home,

just to leave and come again.

A little farther away,

is a room where I,

died in,

lost in,

was reborn in,

only to find myself as someone else.

The one for me is dying,

in a plane crash over Ohio,

while in a small town west,

a little boy listens to radio static,

searching for the voice that,

someday might,

save his,

life.

Tim Koberstein is the world-class singer in Seven Degrees from Center, which has sharpened its songwriting of late.

New composition "Burned by the Light" boasts a memorable hook and exotic instrumental textures.

With melody-minded bass player Drew Bowman driving the action, Seven Degrees from Center can balance the extreme anguish often conveyed in Koberstein's lyrics.

In a final note, "Survivor" celebrity Rupert Boneham was a hit as the evening's master of ceremonies. Upcoming events to benefit music programs at IPS include a March 31 show featuring Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Collective Soul at the Music Mill.
