I wanted vengeance
But I called it justice, and it was tempting
To rewrite the ending:
“She's not a villain, she’s only pretending”

But my name rose high
As the flames rose high
And now I finally see it wasn't worth it
We always get
Our own revenge
But not always against those that deserve it

I’m not gonna ask for it,
I’m gonna take it
I’m not gonna stop the wheel,
I’m gonna break it

I’m not gonna ask for it,
I’m gonna take it
I’m not gonna stop the wheel,
I’m gonna break it

I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break
I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break

I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break
I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break

The night is dark
The night is long
But every winter came before has ended
My name was born
Among the storm
I don't need your permission
To defend it

I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break
I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break

I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break
I'm ready to break the wheel
I'm ready to break

Break the Wheel (feat. Singto Conley)

Fablewave EP

FABLEWAVE EP SAMPLER

This is a song about finding the rhythm again after a long time without it. Just like speedrunning platform games or falling in love.

lyrics

I remember when I was younger 
Me and my sister, we used to speedrun 
Super Mario World and Aladdin 
All the moves ingrained in our fingers 
Sitting with a bowl of chips, 
And an issue of Nintendo Power 
Now 20-something odd years later 
We still beat it in half an hour 

It comes back to me 
Like 
Muscle memory 
I can feel it 
Coming back to me 
Muscle memory 

Now that I’m older, I find I’ve lost 
The taste for things that I just say I’m over 
Like emotions, or attachments, 
Or like anything I can’t control 
Of course that means that you would come 
And suddenly I can remember feeling 
Hold down Y and then you run 
I still got it, yeah, it’s in my fingers 

It comes back to me 
Like 
Muscle memory 
I can feel it 
Coming back to me 
Muscle memory 

It comes back to me 
Like 
Muscle memory 
I can feel it 
Coming back to me 
Muscle memory 

It comes back to me 
Like 
Muscle memory 
I can feel it 
Coming back to me 
Muscle memory 

It comes back to me 
Muscle memory 
I can feel it 
Coming back to me 
Muscle memory

lyrics:

We got a hotel room 
We got reservations, table for two 
The city glitters with cash and litter and dust 
Everybody wanna have their dinner with us 

We’re strong ‘cause we’re stable 
We keep our hand 
On the wheel 
And bring it all to the table 
If there is work to be done 
We are willing and able 
To pick it up, til it’s gone 
We take care of our people 
It’ll be you and me, oh 

We are gonna change the world 
Even if we lose it all one day 
We will make the best of what we got 
You'll be Thomas, I'll be Martha Wayne 

We are gonna own this town 
Then we're gonna watch it fall away 
Everything they see, a gift we built 
You'll be Thomas, I'll be Martha Wayne 

I tell myself I got things to do 
But still I’m sitting here talking to you 
I wouldn’t miss this conversation for the world 
That stare got me clutchin my pearls 

Now we’re strong cuz we’re stable 
We keep our hand 
On the wheel 
And bring it all to the table 
If there is work to be done 
We are willing and able 
To pick it up, til it’s gone 
We take care of our people 
It’ll be you and me, oh 

We are gonna change the world 
Even if we lose it all one day 
We will make the best of what we got 
You'll be Thomas, I'll be Martha Wayne 

We are gonna own this town 
Then we're gonna watch it fall away 
Everything they see, a gift we built 
You'll be Thomas, I'll be Martha Wayne 

We are gonna change the world 
Even if we lose it all one day 
We will make the best of what we got 
You'll be Thomas, I'll be Martha Wayne 

We are gonna own this town 
Then we're gonna watch it fall away 
Everything they see, a gift we built 
You'll be Thomas, I'll be Martha Wayne 

May they remember the love we left behind 
May the shape of the future be our design 
May everything that we’ve worked for be not in vain 
And may you keep me, your very own Martha Wayne

lyrics:

Heart shaped Apple tarts
Four and twenty pence
We're all mad here
And it all makes perfect sense
Cock shaped macarons
Plated for the guests 
We're all mad here 
And it all makes perfect sense 

It's not my hometown, 
But I'm homesick all the same
Because every time I leave
It's like I'm making a mistake

The fog rolls in
Like old caterpillar's smoke
I'm not sure if anyone misses me
But I'm sure that this is my home

Through the looking glass 
A golden gate
I'm on the wrong side of it now
But my heart remained 

All unbirthdays are
A cause to celebrate
And when I come back, 
I’m  bringing all the cake, singing

Heart shaped Apple tarts
Four and twenty pence
We're all mad here
And it all makes perfect sense
Cock shaped macarons
Plated for the guests 
We're all mad here 
And it all makes perfect sense 

Last night I dreamt about Frank Chu
He was holding a sign
9 billion galaxies
12 trillion timelines

Which one is the one where I finally
End up in a life
Where I'm blocks from Dolores Park
In the city I call mine?

And it all makes perfect sense
And it all makes perfect sense

I had a dream of making a scene
I would shake the world with a song
Instead I am reeling from constantly dealing
With everything that has gone wrong

I gotta rage, so I'm back on the stage
Hoping now you'll give me a chance
But then suddenly you
Point a gun at my shoes
Pull the hammer back and say, "Dance."

So put me at the back of the house, mmm
Put me on the bench
I don't wanna be the show
I just wanna run the show
Put me at the back of the house, mmm
Put me on the bench
I don't wanna be the show
I just wanna run the show

I got vision, 
I, I got vision
I, I'm just in it for the sake of the art

I got vision, 
I, I got vision
I, I'm just in it for the sake of the art

I got vision, 
I, I got vision
I, I'm just in it for the sake of the art

The Fifth Beatle
The Grim Reaper
The architects of a piece of our hearts

Put me at the back of the house, mmm
Put me on the bench
I don't wanna be the show
I just wanna run the show
Put me at the back of the house, mmm
Put me on the bench
I don't wanna be the show
I just wanna run the show

I got vision, 
I, I got vision
I, I'm just in it for the sake of the art

I got vision, 
I, I got vision
I, I'm just in it for the sake of the art

I got vision, 
I, I got vision
I, I'm just in it for the sake of the art

The Fifth Beatle
The Grim Reaper
The architects of a piece of our hearts
