A Good Lie

The new single "The Child with the Mirror" from our album Discipline of Freedom is inspired by a passage from Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra: “Folly is my joy, and foolish things it will speak: it is still too young—have patience with it!”

In this song, we explore the themes of innocence, wonder, and rediscovery of the self. The child with the mirror gazes back at a pure, unburdened reflection of the past, as we reflect on how far we've come, and yet how much of that childhood essence remains. The mirror becomes a symbol for introspection—are we still in touch with that part of ourselves that once saw the world through innocent eyes? Have we lost or simply forgotten it?

The chorus echoes this longing for reconnection: "Oh, where have you been, my soul,
the child I still can remember?
Where have you been, my soul?
Where have you been, my wonder?"

The track captures the fragility of memory and the beauty of the simple joy we once knew, as if calling out to our former selves, still full of curiosity, still holding that sense of wonder.

The Child With The Mirror

“I Never Felt So Bad" is a grunge-rock song inspired by the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur. While the holiday is typically a somber and introspective occasion, this song takes a more upbeat approach to self-reflection.

I Never Felt So Bad

First recorded in September 2023.
From the album More Sponges.

It's a song about space, and how far we are off it.

This new version was mixed and mastered by

LYRICS

Trip the wire...
To the stars, to the stars.
There's a cow...
Whats that now? 
Holy Cow.
Get to bed...
In your head.
Go to bed.

Coming soon! We pretend to be fine.
There a fire in the wastelands. What's mine?
Waste of time.
There's a fire.
We Survive.

There's a crack in the side of the farm.
You would think that they'd run but they stay.
Waste the light.
Avoid the night.
Stay alive. 

There's a river that's flowing with gold.
That you get, when you're good, if you're old.
Waste of life.
Taste the Night.
Stoke the fire.

All of her maybes, mistaken for definitely's.
All you can do is move on.
All of your sure things, replaced now with possibly's.
You've got no crutch to lean on.

All of his don't knows, revealed to be so lows.
That you didn't see where they came from.
All of the can does, are hollow lists of to does.
Interstellar. Toodle-oo. 
Now I'm gone.

Trip the wire...
To the stars, to the stars.
There's a cow...
Whats that now? 
Holy Cow.
Get to bed...
In your head.
Go to bed.

There's a message we sent to the sky.
Imagine that wont be getting too far.
Trip the wire.
To the stars.
To the stars.

There's a man on the moon, and he's heating a spoon.
As he looks sadly down on the earth.
There's a cow.
What's that now?
Holy cow.

Wee Willie runs through the town.
Crying loud as he seeks them all out.
Get to bed.
In your head.
Go to bed.

All you've got left are some rust, cans of peaches.
A pile of old Vizzes and porn.
A Fray Bentos pie and your rosy complexion.
There's no one left you rely on. 

A bust of Beethoven, a packet of suet.
A commemorative plate, a Princess Di coin.
An overfilled ashtray, a battered red jumper.
Interstellar. Toodle-oo. 
Now I'm gone.

All of her maybes, mistaken for definitely's.
All you can do is move on.
All of your sure things, replaced now with possibly's.
You've got no crutch to lean on.

All of his don't knows, revealed to be so lows.
That you didn't see where they came from.
All of the can does, are hollow lists of to does.
Interstellar. Toodle-oo. 
Now I'm gone.

Waste of time....
There's a fire. 
We Survive.
Waste the light...
Avoid the night. 
Stay alive.
Waste of life...
Taste the Night. 
Stoke the fire.
Trip the wire...
To the stars, to the stars.
There's a cow...
Whats that now? 
Holy Cow.
Get to bed...
In your head.
Go to bed.
Trip the wire...
To the stars, to the stars.
There's a cow...
Whats that now? 
Holy Cow.
Get to bed...
In your head.
Go to bed.

We can lick all our wounds clean
Ignore all the things we don't mean
Because we don't bother with blood in the water

Cut all the branches bare
Weave the thorns into your hair
Because we don't bother with blood in the water

We know
Weeds grow faster in the heat
Go slow
We know we're faster on our feet

You know we're not that crazy
We know what this is, baby
Times so slow-ow
When we know-ow
It's just the world that's hazy
It's just you and me now baby
Let it go-go
As we grow-ow

Let's just lose the scores
I'll claim my ghosts if you do yours
Don't sweat the small stuff, 'cause it's all small stuff

I'll open my chest more wide
Enough room for you to climb inside
Don't sweat the small stuff, 'cause it's all small stuff

We know
Weeds grow faster in the heat
Go slow
We know we're faster on our feet

You know we're not that crazy
We know what this is, baby
Times so slow-ow
When we know-ow
It's just the world that's hazy
It's just you and me now baby
Let it go-go
As we grow-ow
