And Then by Night

Second Chances

A moody piece inspired by Dylan mansplaining female ejaculation to me. Also our first co-write.

Shanti's Lament

Lyrics by Amanda Kitchens
Music, Recording, & Mix by Dylan Goodhue

A lovely number about the joys of PMS

The Smell of Red

Sacrificial Rite

Common Ground

When you’re curled up in your bed
Covers all around your head
Find it hard to sleep
Looks like you read too deep
All the ghosts you’ve come to know
Live in you like a haunted house
And the forces of evil in your life
Really live in a big White House

Chorus

What if all the monsters in the stories
Just distract you from the fact
The real monsters walk among us
Some even wrote the tales
Does all the money & the fame
Excuse them from the blame
Of feeding on the naive pain
Of those that gotta learn to smile again?

What if American Gods were just a 
Brit that needed therapy
What if the real Red menace got reelected, 
trying to bring a country to its knees
What if puff the magic dragon were a 
Venus fly trap
Feed me Seymour, they yell to the kids
Some of them are never coming back

Chorus

So when you close your eyes
If it comes as no surprise 
You’ve read it all too deep
Now there’s no joy to keep
Is it the price of growing old to know
The darkness of every star-made woe
Must we really see our idols lost
To know what it really cost?

Monsters Among Us

Gather friends, it’s time to dance
Festival time’s upon us
Unsung magick laced with chance
The night’s expectant chorus

Chorus
Leave your troubles & your cares
To dance in the cryptid’s forest
Friends, they spring from everywhere
When Festival time’s upon us

Have you met the faerie court?
They’ll have some tea awaiting
Or the Mayor Raccoon: Malort?
Which appetite’s abating?

Chorus

Come dance around the fire with me
The drums they’ve come a-calling
Air’s alive with revelry
As the cloak of the Eve is falling

Chorus

When winter comes to blind the Sun
Let gloom not rise victorious
The will of heart will soon be won
When festival time’s upon us

Festival Time's Upon Us

The woes of polyamory experienced during the onset of the coronavirus.

Love in the Time of Corona

A song of solitude & feeling forgotten or passed over by an old lover as time marches on.
