SEVEN SOURCES is the brain-child of Joel Pirard. I have been in quite a few bands,. I learned to write songs and compositions in ORION, ALASKA, TOMBSTONE, THE ALIENZ, AVALON USA, THE JDA PROJECT, each with their own styles and nuances. I put some of these out with them and a lot more out under an umbrella I call SEVEN SOURCES, which basically an imprint for my personal works with occasional guests.

Lyrics
LOOK IN THE GARDEN Look in the garden and remember the children shot down for nothing as they went through the day look at the mother, as she runs to protect them laid down her life so they could live today What about the children what about the love the families and the loved ones what were they thinking of What about the the children, that started all the tears they also ruined their own loves their actions brought the fear, and now what is the answer now that they pulled the trigger? the reasons don't matter could we feel any sadder? as they fired the shots that destroyed all the dreams they wanted to 'get even' look at all the lives they shattered the end of the road not clear so it seems What about the children what about the love the families and the loved ones what were they thinking of What about the the children, that started all the tears they also ruined their own loves their actions brought the fear, and now what is the answer now that they pulled the trigger? look in the windows, the silence is so loud look in the schoolyard, where once she walked so proud the lady saw and acted, to save on who could die soon she was a 'hero' a good reason to cry.... words and music by Joel Pirard 1998
