Self Help For The Helpless

Verse 1:

I can’t tell time
It won’t do what I say
I try to take control of time
But time always gets its own way

Time waits for no one 
So goes the old cliche
But if you wait until the time’s just right
You can watch time slip away

Chorus 1:

I’ve heard it said by people who know that
Only time will tell
But time don't say a single thing
I suppose that’s just as well

Verse 2:

I can't trust time
It seems to come and go
And where it went when it's gone
I swear that I don't know

More and more and On and On
I watch time dissapear
Into itself or something else
It leaves me waiting here

Chorus 2:

The universe is particular
About the time it will allow
The only time it does approve
Is the moment happening now

Verse 3:

I can't save time
It doesn't want to last
It's here for such a little while
And then becomes the past

The past can't be saved
It not really here at all
No more than the future is
As best as I recall

Chorus 3:

Seems to be a law of nature
That's universally true that
Three O'clock is too early or late for
Anything you want to do.

Verse 4:

Time fills all the spaces 
If you give it enough room
But it's still a mystery
How it got so late so soon

Time gives me everything
And then takes it all away
Things still seem to happen
In a weird but timely way

Bridge:

If time's a game
It's hard to play
It's got complex rules
And it takes all day
It's not much fun
You just can't win
But it's a beautiful game
When played by children

Verse 5:

Time is my enemy
Time’s my only friend
It's something that i never earned
But I still get to spend

We're all given so much time
You can’t get an extra bit
You can sqeeze or stretch it any way you like
But you’ll never make it fit

Chorus 4:

I can't save time, keep time or take time
Would if I knew how
Thought I had a tale about time to tell
But I'm out of time right now

Laundromat Blues [09.30.24]

"SID 6581" is a concept album by Siderunda that draws deep inspiration from the golden age of video game soundtracks and retro electronic genres like synthwave and retrowave. With a vibrant neon aesthetic, it transports listeners back to the 80s arcade scene, infusing its melodies with the feel of classic chiptune and the warm analog tones of the legendary Commodore 64 SID 6581 sound chip.

This album merges the synth-heavy, driving beats of outrun music with the complexity of J.S. Bach's compositions. Siderunda uses this classical influence to add depth, weaving baroque-inspired counterpoints into energetic pop arrangements. The result is a uniquely textured sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh: shimmering synths, pulsating basslines, and a touch of elegance that hints at Bach’s structural sophistication.

Each track balances catchy 80s-style pop hooks with a layered retro-futuristic ambiance. Siderunda’s vocals blend with lush synths, creating a soundscape that’s both cinematic and evocative, making “SID 6581” a perfect homage to a bygone era, with a contemporary twist that celebrates the roots of electronic music.

Words:
I always thought I wanted to be free.
I didn’t know then how wonderful it would be
To be held captive in the web of  love.

I always thought that I should stand tall
I didn’t know then the ecstasy of the fall
Into the arms of the Earthly love

I always thought that I would learn the truth
Through reaching further and further into space
Until I found I was lost its vastness,
And felt like a speck of dust with no place. 
Our forefathers’ science was more holographic, 
They drew a picture that was just as true
But it was also one where each could find their nest,
Where no wren could fall un-noted 
And no blade of grass would go un-blessed,
And in which it's easy to find the truth:
When we hear it, it rings like a bell.

I always thought that I wanted liberation 
Until I realised that I took incarnation 
To be rooted in the love of Earth.

I always thought I wanted to be free.
I didn’t know then how wonderful it would be
To be captured and enraptured in the love of Earth.

Captured

Ghost Nation’s latest single, "Totally Blind," delivers a thrilling mix of intense guitar riffs, hypnotic retro synth arpeggios, and powerful, arena-ready vocals. This track pulls listeners in from the first note, capturing the band’s signature blend of rock energy and immersive soundscapes.

The lyrics explore the haunting grip of an unreachable passion, where longing becomes blinding and impossible to ignore. In lines like "Haunted by hopes of what could have been, echoes of love that I never have seen," Ghost Nation delves into the tension between desire and despair. The song paints a vivid picture of being trapped between the past and the present—drawn to memories of something or someone unforgettable, yet knowing it’s just beyond reach.
