John Kerslake. Singer, songwriter from Sunshine Coast. Always been aware of the magical qualities of music and try to create the same.
It's just me at the moment. I've been writing and performing my own music for about twenty years now with increasing intensity. Sometimes I get lost in the cause in my lyrics, wishing I could get the message of love and peace across. Sometimes I just have fun with my songs. Sometimes I write and sing about the sadness we can experience but I always like to think there's a positive side to all in the end. I also like the attraction of fantasy and have written songs about Faeries, mermaids and even a sorcerer. I can immerse in fantasy but embed messages on life in there. Makes it fun to listen to as well.

Story behind the song
The way I was feeling. An awareness that even though a perception, I had existed without tears or fear. Loss of ancient chains.
Lyrics
I Spent All My Tears John Kerslake 21/5/2009 Been saving my tears Been saving my fears Been saving them up for a rainy day I walked to the room I walked through the gloom I walked to the light, a message from a billion souls Solo I loaded my gun I walked from the room I fired once into the lonely sky Walked back to my house As quiet as a mouse Crept under the blankets, and I breathed Solo I spent all my tears, I spent all my fears There's nothing to hold, me back, anymore I spent all my tears, I spent all my fears There's nothing to hold, me back, anymore
