Still far

YOU EMBED A WIRE UP IN MY BRAIN
(music and words by The Ox Prison)

Way down inside
I can read your lies
Your face is still
But it’s in your eyes

You cast a spell
On the universe
You drive around
In your rainbow hearse

Up in my brain
You embed a wire
The microwaves
Set my mind on fire
You fly so high
Like the evil drones
You dwell within
Ghostly skull and bones

You dress so nice
Million-dollar shoes
You have your men 
On the evening news

You care so much
About the working class
You hug the kids
And you attend the mass
A day will come
When you need to go
It comes for everyone
You’d better save your soul

Way down inside
I can read your lies
Your face is still
But it’s in your eyes

You Embed A Wire Up In My Brain

A song about being yourself regardless of what others think about you

In My Own Lane

Message From God

Drifting Tide (Remix)

I don't know what is to be saved but I know my road is sometimes paved with good intentions did I fail to mention.. we came from the great big sea he and she  you and me we crawled we walk we live we breathe we die nobody knows how we got here. nobody knows where were going, nobody knows anything and the world keeps turning round and we haven't heard a thing from the man in the sky Every body has an answer but nobody really has a clue the sun comes up the sun goes down you better hope your still around this old earth has had enough its gonna throw us in the fire like a paper cup and the winds going to blow like a hurricane like New Orleans on that terrible day Nobody knows anything nobody knows what tomorrow will bring nobody knows anything  and the wheels keep spinning round and round and we haven't heard a thing from the man in the sky....Man in the sky.... keeps us wondering why...Nobody knows Anything! Nobody knows when the angels will sing , Nobody knows anything, and the band keeps playing on and on...and we  never seem to hear  from the man in the sky, no we never seem to hear from the man up high

Man In The Sky

Philosophisches Duett über die zeitlose Weisheit, dass wahres 
Glück nicht im Ankommen, sondern im bewussten Gehen liegt. 
Chamber Folk mit Cello/Violin-Arrangements, progressive Taktarten 
(7/8, 5/4) und zwei Stimmen, die Generationen verbinden. 
Für Fans von Sufjan Stevens, Fleet Foxes und moderner Kammermusik.

Lyrik: (The English translation is below the German lyrics)
Im Morgengrauen der Seele erwacht
Ein rastlos Herz, das nach dem Horizont sich sehnt
Die Ungeduld der Zeit hat uns gemacht
Zu Jägern, die dem nächsten Glück entgegen gehen

Immer rennen, niemals ankommen hier
Zwischen Atemzügen hält die Zeit still
Ein Zauber webt sich leise, sanft wie Schnee
Zeigt den Weg, den ich schon immer gehen will

Die Wahrheit liegt so nah
War immer schon da
In uns

Es gibt keinen Weg zum Glück
Glück ist der Weg, den wir gehen
In jedem kleinen Augenblick
Kann ich die ganze Welt schon sehen
Nicht am Ende wartet das Gefühl
Nein, es tanzt in jedem Schritt
Das Leben ist kein fernes Ziel
Es singt in unserem Rhythmus mit

Zwischen Anfang und Ende
Zwischen Traum und dem Erwachen
Leben wir

Der Duft von Regen auf dem warmen Asphalt
Ein Lachen das von tief im Herzen kommt
Die Wärme einer Umarmung ungezählt
Das ist das Glück, das in uns wohnt

Nicht wischen nach dem Glück, wisch als das Glück
Die junge Seele spürt es schon so lang
Zwischen Hetze und dem Stillstand liegt der Trick
Im bewussten Gehen liegt der Klang

Es gibt keinen Weg zum Glück
Glück ist der Weg, den wir gehen
In jedem kleinen Augenblick
Kann ich die ganze Welt schon sehen
Die Revolution ist nicht das Ankommen
Sie lebt im bewussten Sein
In jedem Jetzt ist alles gewonnen
Der Weg selbst lädt uns ein

Der Weg selbst ist das Geschenk

English translation:
At dawn, the soul awakens
A restless heart that longs for the horizon
The impatience of time has made us
Hunters who pursue the next bit of happiness

Always running, never arriving here
Between breaths, time stands still
A spell weaves itself quietly, gently like snow
Showing me the path I've always wanted to take

The truth is so close
It was always there
Within us

There is no path to happiness
Happiness is the path we walk
In every little moment
I can already see the whole world
The feeling doesn't wait at the end
No, it dances with every step
Life is not a distant goal
It sings along with our rhythm

Between beginning and end
Between dream and awakening
We live

The scent of rain on warm asphalt
A laugh that comes from deep within the heart
The warmth of countless hugs
That is the happiness that dwells within us

Don't wipe away happiness, wipe away as happiness
The young soul has felt it for so long
Between rushing and standing still lies the trick
In conscious walking lies the sound

There is no path to happiness
Happiness is the path we walk
In every little moment
I can already see the whole world
The revolution is not the arrival
It lives in conscious being
In every now, everything is won
The path itself invites us

The path itself is the gift

Der Weg ist das Glück

[Verse] Feet on the edge where the wild water flows Under the moonlight the mystery grows A bridge of shadows stretching so thin Crossing that river where dreams begin

[Verse 2] Whispers of echoes from the other side Pulling me closer with the rising tide The night feels heavy but my heart's alive Crossing that river just to survive

[Chorus] Oh I'm crossing that river where the stars align Through the dark waters leaving fears behind Step by step into the great unknown Crossing that river to find my own

[Verse 3] The wind is howling but I hear her song A voice so tender pulling me along Every ripple's a story every wave a cry Crossing that river to touch the sky

[Bridge] Oh the current’s strong but my will won't break Through the cold waters for the risk I’ll take The past is drowning in the undertow Crossing that river to see where it’ll go

[Chorus] Oh I'm crossing that river where the stars align Through the dark waters leaving fears behind Step by step into the great unknown Crossing that river to find my own

Crossing That River

Here we go with Chip for Dead, an intense metal instrumental version of Left for Dead (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/left-for-dead) with a Chiptune twist (here you can find our Chiptune tracks: https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/8-bit-vibes)!🔊 

You might have caught a sneak peek during the Bloopers in the Left for Dead video on YouTube (https://youtu.be/P2ARL50HuoU?si=Xs6FgJy8K1hpt5DM).

This track officially closes what we’ve been calling the Apocalyptic Trilogy (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/sets/apocalyptic-trilogy), though with the two instrumentals included, it’s really more of a Pentalogy (..does this word exist?)! Three main songs and two instrumental variations, all tied together in one epic saga.

Tom gave a hand with the synths on this one while focusing on production instead of vocals, and we’d love to hear what you think about this new twist in the comments below.
We’ll be back at the end of the month with a special Halloween track… in Italian (don’t worry, we’ll post the English translation too!).
Love you all! 🫶

At the moment, this track is exclusively available on SoundCloud.
Released on October 22, 2025.
