Inspired by my first trumpet teacher

lyrics

The horn of fate

I met a monster when i went to church one day
My ears were ringing when i heard the roar
That fateful moment standing like a deer stuck on the road
Staring into sound beams in the hall
I couldn't move a muscle and i knew my fate was sealed
Like a werewolf in the moon i felt the call

I heard the horn of fate
I heard the horn of fate
I heard the horn of fate

Trembling with goosebumps as the creature turned to me
The congregation fading to a drone
I tried to say a prayer but i couldn't move my lips
Knowing i was hypnotised it spoke
There's no use making sense of it recording it on page
The music tells the story of my fall

[Chorus]

And to this day i hear the demons calling out to me
While brazen fanfares bellow in my ears
Driving off the last remains of peacefulness inside
Keeling over belted into bits
Bordering insanity with brass stuck in my brain
Blasting hot air tunnelled through the bore

[Chorus]

Niq Reefman Sydney, Australia

Niq trumpets like a singer, keyboards like a bass player, sings like a narrator and ukuleles like an electric guitar - his musical performance is best described by picturing “Tim Minchin, flying a trumpet through a thunderstorm”.
He spreads songs of beauty, mirth, camaraderie, inspiration and action to a world that craves the social zest of an Irish pub and the hopeful melodies of nature. ... more
