I'm left here breathing, cursed by fate
They're six feet down, but I'm too late
The reaper passed, left me to bleed
Now I live in shame, where death should feed

I see their faces in my dreams
Suffocating in silent screams
The ground is cold, their souls aren't free
The only truth: It should have been me

It should have been me, deep in the ground
Buried beneath the endless sound
I walk this world, but I'm not whole
Living with death's unholy toll

These hands are stained, can't wash them clean
Grief's a chain that digs so deep
I hear their voices, I feel their stare
A twisted nightmare I can't repair

I stare at stones where bodies sleep
While guilt and sorrow start to creep
My heartbeat slows, but I can't flee
The final truth:

It should have been me, under the dirt
Cursed to walk, but I still hurt
I drag this life, chained to regret
I'm the one death should have met

The night calls my name, pulls me down slow
To the pit where the shadows grow
I bargain with fate, but there's no release
Trapped in this cycle, never at peace

It should have been me, under the dirt
Cursed to walk, but I still hurt
I drag this life, chained to regret
I'm the one death should have met

It should have been me, deep in the ground
Buried beneath the endless sound
I walk this world, but I'm not whole
Living with death's unholy toll

It should have been me, under the dirt
Cursed to walk, but I still hurt
I drag this life, chained to regret
I'm the one death should have met

It Should Have Been Me

I mixed this music with plucked instruments, drums, and the great tools of electronic music into one pot, I wanted to make rhythmic, pleasant, and cheerful music.

Psychosomatic Hypochondriac 2025 (feat. Kristopher Bolin)

(Verse 1)
Long time ago, death and fire's sting,
The sea claims, the sea claims everything.
Zombie Cosmic, a whispered name, a mournful plea,
Lost at sea, eternally.

(Chorus)
Lost at sea, awaiting you,
The ghost ship will take you away, it's true.
A chilling wind, a spectral light,
Into the darkness of the endless night.

(Verse 2)
Dead men, they tell no more tales,
Of crashing waves and tattered sails.
A silent crew, with hollow eyes,
Beneath the storm-tossed, weeping and blackened skies.

(Chorus)
Lost at sea, awaiting you,
The ghost ship will take you away, it's true.
A chilling wind, a spectral light,
Into the darkness of the endless night.

(Bridge)
Far on the horizon, the ethereal sails,
Oh, the ghost ship, where no hope prevails.
A phantom vessel, gliding slow,
To where the ocean's floor secrets flow.

(Chorus)
Lost at sea, awaiting you,
The ghost ship will take you away, it's true.
A chilling wind, a spectral light,
Into the darkness of the endless night.

(Outro)
Far away, far away,
The ghost ship will take you away.
Oh...
The mask of life is waiting..

NO QUIERO VERTE

Somos como dos pajarillos
viviendo en un plácido nido...
sin apenas conocerse;
somos unos desconocidos
jugando a cambiar de camino…
con el riesgo de perderse.

Y es que somos a la vez
carne y uña, risa y llanto:
dos que no se pueden ver...
¡pero que se quieren tanto!

Estribillo

No quiero verte porque sé que te adoro
no quiero verte porque sé que luego lloro
y no puedo estar sin ti;
te diría que te quiero como un loco...
pero sé que en tu vida yo no soy
ese amor que sabe a poco
y prefiero estar sin ti.

-----------------

Somos como dos enemigos
luchando en eterno conflicto…
pero que no han de matarse;
somos todavía dos niños
buscando el juguete perdido…
y es hora de despertarse.

Y es que somos a la vez
mar y arena, nieve y menta:
algo que no puede ser...
¡si primero no se intenta!

Estribillo

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE YOU

We are like two little birds
living in a placid nest ...
without hardly knowing each other;
we are strangers
playing to change the way ...
at the risk of getting lost.

And it is that we are at the same time
flesh and nail, laughter and crying:
two that cannot be seen ...
But they love each other so much!

Chorus

I don't want to see you because I know that I adore you
I don't want to see you because I know that I cry later
And I can't be without you
I would tell you that I love you like crazy ...
but I know that in your life I am not
that love that knows little
And I'd rather be without you

------

We are like two enemies
fighting in eternal conflict ...
but they are not to be killed;
we are still two children
looking for the lost toy ...
And it's time to wake up

And it is that we are at the same time
sea and sand, snow and mint:
something that can't be ...
If you don't try first!

Chorus

No quiero verte (Feat. Martin T.)

New track alert!😀
"Asteroids (The Original Was Better)" is the result of a spontaneous and fun collab between our friend and amazing musician Joe Stroffolino (https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino) and Beating Edge. Joe heard our chiptune track RND (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/rnd-instrumental-chiptune), got inspired by it, and wrote some lyrics based on the classic arcade game Asteroids. He added his voice and acoustic guitar over it, and sent it our way.
We loved it and decided to jump in too, building a second part with a more rock-driven vibe, using the same chiptune idea as inspiration. We stitched everything together into a single track, kicking things off with a fun spoken intro, a short vocal transition between the parts, and closing with a wild, over-the-top outro.
Hope you enjoy this crazy, hybrid ride as much as we enjoyed making it! Thanks so much to everyone who gives it a listen, sending lots of love your way!❤️‍🔥
Huge thanks, Joe, for this awesome collab! Can’t wait for the next one!😉

Lyrics:

[Spoken Intro]
Joe: Wow! This is a really cool Arcade!
Tom: Yeah!
Joe: Hey, check it out! Is that an Asteroids game over there?
Tom: Oh, wow!
Joe: I haven't seen that in like that forever!
Tom: That's definitely Asteroids! Let's play a game!
Mary (with a sore throat 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣): Oh yeah! Let's play Asteroids!

-->Joe

I used to play asteroids in the 1980’s
I liked to blow up rocks in outer space
The flying saucers would attack me
At an ever-increasing pace

I stumbled across an old vintage arcade the other day
I hadn’t played Asteroids in a long time
I popped a quarter into that old machine
And I watched my score start to climb

I watched my score start to climb
I watched my score start to climb
I watched my score start to climb

Time goes by so quickly 
and playing that game really took me back
To those days when my future was unwritten
And I hadn’t gone so far down my current track

Pushing those buttons so fast and furiously
Standing in front of that arcade machine
Blowing up all those asteroids 
On that black and white video screen

Blowing up all those asteroids 
On that video screen
Blowing up all those asteroids 
On that video screen

For a couple of minutes, I forgot about the present
I was back floating in outer space
Breaking big rocks into small rocks
I had a a big smile on my face

And then it was time for me to go
Cause I had errands that I needed to run
But that old video game
I sure had a lot of fun

It's not over yet

-->Tom 

Just a single screen, all black and white
The whole room's dark except the TV's light
Rotate and thrust, it wasn't much
No one had seen a thing like this before

Now there's a 3D holographic thing
That no one plays, 'cause nobody can afford
With a visor on, your body's gone
It's kinda fun, but the original was better

We used to play all day, late at night
For the high score, it was do or die
No one knew what a quarter was worth
No one knew what the future had in store

Now there's a 3D holographic thing
That no one plays, 'cause nobody can afford
With a visor on, your body's gone
It's kinda fun, but the original was better

The original was better
The original was better
The original was better
The original was better

Now there's a 3D holographic thing
That no one plays, 'cause nobody can afford
With a visor on, your body's gone
It's kinda fun, but the original was better

[Spoken Outro]
Someone who wants to stay anonymous 😂: That was a lot of fun!
