Switch by bitStone

A little song I wrote for St. Patrick's Day to pay tribute to a bar I used to frequent by the name of Lydia's. She has been gone for a few years now, but the memories live on!

Oh, Dear Lydia!

Leprechaun Boots And A Tutu

To my youngest boy

Lyrics:

Take one step, my son
Then another
You may stumble
But I’m here to help you through. 
Young legs take time to strengthen,
That’s why I’m here until they do.

Take small steps, my son
Then another
I’ll be with you,
To help you make them your own.
Young boys take time to strengthen,
And I won’t stop until your grown.

Chorus
And for those steps 
That await your future
When all seems lost
And hope despairs,
When my hand’s too weak to catch you,
Remember a father is always there,
A father is always there.

Take those steps, my son,
When you’re older,
Keep on moving
In the direction you need,
Young men take time to strengthen,
And soon you’ll be the one to lead.

Out Of The Sky

Fireflies In A Summer Night

from their album, "Switch"

Asteroids

let rocks be thrown right on target, start the fire
let these rocks go, out to harm us
greed, desire

and with proper placement and selective throws
let them go, they're landing all around you
still, with proper placement and a side-armed throw
taking aim at all these fucking villains
after all is said & done

we're in charge

keep them in fear for, what they stand to lose
dancing on thin ice, how dare you, how dare you, how dare you,
how dare you choose Truth

(keep 'em down)

let these rocks guide harm's intentions
planet's sleeping

(keep 'em down)

let this rock hide from infections
haunted dreaming
rocks in motion, hard to handle
while on fire

and with proper placement and selective throws
let them go, they're landing all around you
still, with proper placement and a side-armed throw
taking aim at all these fucking villains
after all is said & done

we're in charge

keep them in fear for, what they stand to lose
dancing on thin ice, how dare you, how dare you,
how dare you choose Truth

(keep 'em down)

let these things brew
and then you're screwed
how I told you so

Asteroids

Switch

and then a switch goes off in my head
fuck seeing red, I'm talking losing losing my shit
how have you been? what a stupid question
make me some sense, I'm sure I'll lose it again

I'm a calm and zen ocean
would you care for a swim
I'm a bomb without a tick
don't hit my switch

well, I've been robbed
and stabbed and then
forgotten

and then a switch goes off, like I said
fuck seeing red, I'm talking raising the dead
where to begin? - what a fucking stupid question
switch up your stance, let's try and lose it against

The Lying Truth

I can tell you've
been there, done that
you feel this groove
but you can't wear my hat

you can't wear my will down
you can't wear my soul out
or maybe it's true
and I'm lying to you

I might as well pack a bowl
I might as well go for broke
say, who the hell stole my soul?
want to stop by for a smoke

into this view
you just don't know
locked in a groove
but you can't steal my glow

you can't wear my will down
you can't wear my soul out
or maybe it's true
and I'm lying to You

I might as well pack a bowl
I might as well swallow smoke
this getting old's now a joke
say, who the hell stole my soul?

you can't wear my will down
you can't wear my soul out
or maybe it's true
and I'm lying to you

I might as well pack a bowl
I might as well have a smoke
to deal with your sorry soul
you're killing planets and ghosts

Stolen Reality

I was in the middle of the road
contemplating how and why I'm broke
and all the people stopped and stared
and acted like they fucking cared

but reality won't let me be
stole my soul

I was often sitting all alone
realizing what I didn't know
and if I could, I'd pay you back
if I could, I'd make it last

but reality won't let me be
stole my soul

Born of the Sun

I came here, Born of the Sun
I came to warm everyone
boy, did I misjudge the heat
the cold here has been killing me

I may have once been so cold
hurting the ones I loved most
boy am I sorry for them
I should have hugged them instead

I'm back, now Born of the Sun
I came to warm everyone

and they're born of the sun....

Born of the Sun, Born of the Sun

I came here, Born of the Sun
I came to sound the alarm
waiting for Evil to freeze
has iced me up to my knees

now I long just to be warm
I know I'm not of the norm
boy I feel sorry for them
they should hug it out instead

I'm back now, Born of the Sun
I came to warn everyone

& they're born of the Sun

Born of the Sun, Born of the Sun

Riverbed

in the riverbed of your head
I've forgiven you of forgiving you

in the river's death, past the myth
I've forgotten you for forgetting you

tell the truth...

what you feel, what you know
is a hoax
what is real, how you glow
I don't know

past the riverbed
if you hop the fence
I've neglected you, I've neglected you?

in the riverbed of your head
my decisions were nothing vicious, too

with the river dead, make amends
of forgotten truths, of forgotten myths

lies for fools...

what you feel, what you know
is a hoax
what is real, how you glow
I don't know

past the riverbed
if you hop the fence
I've neglected you, I've neglected you?

what you feel, what you know
is a hoax
what is real, how you glow
I don't know
what's unreal, how we float

Riverbed

Staring at my phone for too long
I know now that the signals still strong
with the flashing light in my line of sight
I know that somethings wrong
and I've been staring at my phone for too long

ohh maybe baby, I've got just what you need
and all i need from you is a touch of sympathy
she says baby, don't get me started
I told you what love is, and we ain't got none
so leave me alone

I should have known
I was nothin but a fool
yeah I should have known
there was nothin I could do
yeah I should have know
but i'm left here broken hearted
fighting myself as the clock reaches twelve
I know deep inside
I should have known

feeling like I've said too much
her coldness feels like more than just a touch
well in my mind, all these grand designs
have crumbled from the nudge
and i'm feeling like I've said too much

don't worry baby, I've got just what you need
and all I need from you is a touch of sympathy
she says baby, don't get me started
I told you what love is, and we ain't got none
so leave me alone

I should have known
I was nothin but a fool
yeah i should have known
there was nothin i could do
I should have know
but i'm left here broken hearted
fighting myself as the clock reaches twelve
I don't like to lose
next time i'll know

I Should've Known

Michael Weber's Album

motom top

experimental rock and electronic-tinged distortion playgrounds

bitStone dives into distorted experimental rock and glitchy atmospheric textures — a chaotic, electrified space where riffs collide with electronic grit. Heavy, strange, and futuristic.

bitStone is the collision point — an electric synapse sparking between chaos and clarity. Guitars grind against glitch-dust; rhythms fracture and reform; melodies distort like broken neon. It’s the sound of a machine dreaming in analog, a place where rock becomes circuitry and emotion bleeds through the wires. bitStone is the future bending, glitching, and breathing.

bitStone is an experiment in alchemy — taking Stone Catcherye’s raw emotional songwriting and cyber-grunge riffs and fusing it with bitzone's glitch-age textures, psychedelic edges and fractal electronics. The project thrives in the tension between natural and synthetic: acoustic strings warped through broken processors, warm analog tones swimming through pixelated distortion, ghostly beats made of machinery breathing.

The music of bitStone feels like wandering through a neon-lit forest, traversing digital ruins, and discovering something beating, organic, 
and human beneath the circuitry. It is melancholic and radiant, chaotic and precise, with melodies that seem to flicker like candlelight behind 
glitching code. bitStone stands at the crossroads of sound design and songwriting, using technology as an emotional amplifier rather than a 
cage. It is the future seen through cracked glass — beautiful, strange, and alive.
