Here The Past Is All I See

Nicotine

Corrupt (In Me Rivus Extinctus Est)

Every single time
By now I’m halfway to Mexico
Though I’m feeling fine here
I’m fleeing fast as feet can flow

Sometimes in my dreams
My soul isn’t frozen so damn cold
But yet here I am still
My avoidance completely uncontrolled

Sometimes I’m a UFO 
Now watch me fly away

My whim blows with the breeze
My avoidance is still completely blind
And still I flee so fast away
And my dreams are completely undermined

Sometimes I’m a unicorn 
Now watch me run away

Now you know 
Now you know that you know that you never know
What’s gonna trigger my risk control
That’s when you talked about UFOs
And it you know triggered my risk control 
Why’d you have to talk about UFOs
Now I’m halfway to Mexico

Why’d you go   
Why’d you go talk about UFOs
Cause it triggered my risk control
And why did I go and let you go
So so stupid to let you go
My goddamn risk control
My avoidance is uncontrolled

Damn risk control
Goddamn risk control
That’s what made me let you go
Not cause you talked about UFOs
Not cause you talked about UFOs
Not cause you talked about UFOs

Lost and Found - remastered DEMO

Wasteland

So this is the about the endless existence of our lives that needs to understand that we're probably not alone in our lifetime, but there is so much more to our life than what we believe. 

Thanks @ninjahza for the remaster of this song!

Endless Skies

Demo version of a song I am working on!

Lyrics

Do you remember when we were kids?
There wasn't a thing that we used to know
We're getting closer to our deaths 
But there's still some things left to show

We'll sit around singin AC/DC with the people outside who're goin crazy and
If rock and roll were a little bit slower maybe we'd leave here with our head on our shoulders, we'll
Pretend it's still 2019 and the families haven't left the suburbs we grew up in and
Right now I think it's more important that we try to get to know each other all over again

Woah, take it slow
You know, we got so close
Woah, let it go
You know, we lost control

Do you remember the first time we met?
It was like some sort of jailing hold
Now, there's nothing to even miss
But I know emotion never goes

A good man's probably somewhat wiser and a little bit taller and a lot more handsome, yeah you
Still waited on every second to catch that one small hour we'd spend talkin nonsense, but now
We've grown and there's no more chances to see that perfect smile that still haunts my reflection, but we'll 
Pretend that it never happened and there's still a purpose to our chemical reactions

Woah, take it slow
You know, we got so close
Woah, let it go
You know, we lost control

A Suburban Love Song

As Mira leaves Iceland behind for the vibrant, unfamiliar streets of Paris, "Wings of Dawn" captures the mix of fear and exhilaration that comes with chasing one’s dreams. This song is an anthem of transformation, where new horizons bring both challenge and the promise of rebirth.

Wings of Dawn

LONG WAY HOME

Bloody Night (slowed)

Purging my powerlessness over the infinite emptiness by serving up indie rock to the masses. 

Crafted and produced at home during an epic existential crisis. These songs came from outer space whence they shall return in due time.

Apologies if I wrote a song about you. It wasn't my fault. Peace.
