From the recording I Can Feel the Light
'I Can Feel the Light' will be released on 1st February 2023. It is an international collaboration between M L Dunn (Digitiphony, Spirit of the Bowls) , Mella (Be Like this River, Mist) and U. Kay Hytz (Ambients, An Acute Sense of the Absurd). At 7 minutes long, it is a song about rebuilding a life after loss and grief.

Lyrics
I can feel the light
Bring out your children all ye people
Sing out now Siva's day is here
And we'll build, in stone, a shrined cathedral – in her name, yeah
I'll tie up that wild imagination
that brought out those love-lines in your hair
and cling on, with grim determination, to what's not there
I can, I can feel the light (x2)
And now, it’s gonna be all right
Gonna be all right
But don't look at me, I never said it’d be easy
And I can hardly believe
How could you leave me here?
Please -
I can, I can feel the light (rpt)
And now, it’s gonna be all right
So stand up for your belief and reason
Release the pain that's in your heart
And climb up to where the breathing's easy
And you are
Yourself,
Yourself
It's the warmth of your heart, serious
that'll tear me apart, serious x2
I can, I can feel the light
And now, it’s gonna be all right
I can feel the light, I can feel the light x2
I can, I can feel the light, and now it’s gonna be all right
And we’ll build, in stone, a shrined cathedral – in her name, yeah
I can feel, I can feel, I can, I can feel the light x2
