This is my cover of "King" by Karen O from the album Crush Songs. She dedicated her song to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, after his death.

Lyrics:

King of Pop is dead and gone away.
No one'll ever take his place.

He's in his castle in the sky
Watching over you and I.

And with his single sparkling glove,
He blows us kisses, shows us love.

Is he walking on the moon?
I hope I don't find out too soon.

King

The Siren always stands so tall
singing over all the trees.
And now that I have heard you sing,
my ship into a wreck, you bring.
Who knew your voice would be so strong
to ring in my ears for so long?

Why can't you tell me when to hide
if stormy tornadoes are nigh?
What a mess the cold war brings.
Just hoping we won't hear you sing.
What a mess you've made my ship.
I'm overboard and freezing in,
the ocean.

And all those fucking memories.
Would you just fucking go with me?
I cut open two tennis balls.
Four weeks gone by without a job.
'Cause ever since I heard your song,
the Siren's song just dragging on.

The Siren's song just dragging on.

The Siren's song just dragging on.

Siren

So dizzy from the drugs we took to pass the time.
You've moved on to  grander things and left me behind.
I wonder what is going on inside your mind.
A Universe lays right between your crooked eyes.

You tell yourself you're moving on, but that's a lie.
These cookie cutter houses make you sick inside.
It's all happening, but nobody can tell you why.
This happens all the time. This happens every night.

We always start on more than we can finish. And so we're left with these really big ideas and no physical manifestations. Grand ideas. We've started writing things down. But there is so much we've written down and so little we will say (to you). 

So we've started writing less and less. Two or three sentences. One or two words. Lines instead of shapes. But now we can't remember what it meant. Or what we meant it to mean. 

...And so things become shallow.

Is the last breath you take before falling asleep - the moment you slip from the precipice of waking life - an inhale or an exhale?

CS11 (Somnambulant)

I don't want to say
More than I have to. 
Usually I don't have
To say a lot.

But tonight,
I'll say the truth.

I don't want to stay 
Longer than I have to. 
Usually I won't wait
For you to come along.

But tonight,
I'll wait for you. 

Maybe I could have
Another chance with you. 
Darling I won't take
So very long.

Maybe it could be
Alright with you. 
Something happening;
I don't know what/why.

But tonight,
We'll make it right.

But tonight,
I'll take my time.

We'll do no harm. 

We'll do no harm.
