Wicked Game by Chris Isaak (Cover)

I wrote this on a plane on my phone in 2021 and then tracked the vocals when I got home. Need to redo them. Also, it’d be cool if you listened to this with headphones on, because I panned my voice to move around you :)

Also, the artwork is mine!

I made this originally on the piano and then I messed with the chords on my phone for fun. Imagine you're in Dodongo’s Cavern and Navi is protecting you 🖤

Enjoy/sorry 🥴

[vape hit]

(“The jewel thief? Yeah, I'm the jewel thief!”)

I’m a thief in the night in the walls of your mind
I hate wasting time, and you can’t afford a fine
Broke bitch, any signs of life in here?
No precious stones in sight, my dear

I’m out, catch me dead before you catch me bored
I do what I want with the chorus and chords
Just sitting in my room on the moon making music
A red liminal space for the passing, the muses

("Or perhaps she is simply bored.")
"Acheaugh... ugh."

Make em giggle, groan, gasp, and a little [horny]
Yeah Jules got the bars that weaken whore’s knees
I’m a jester, a fool with a fluid aesthetic
I don’t got a type—Yuta and Yuki could get it

I get dorky with it, I get [coin!] with the [heeey]
Look what’s over there! I’ll steal your bitch and steal your vape
I’m just making noise that my psyche agrees with 
Now look over here—sike bitch, watch this:

~da da da da da da da "Not my bitch and my vape." da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da~

I’m the brain rot queen but I offer tutoring ("She's a dork!")
What that linguist tongue do? Hurt your feelings, king
Art, music, math, science—facets in my gems
I’m really just a fucking nerd who likes to play pretend

What a joke, what a poser, oh a film score composer?
Got a crook at the crime scene, does anyone know her?
It’s dumb but its fun—shits and giggles make you [HUH]
Got a spider in the corner that'll eat your heart for lunch

I'm just being silly—don’t tell me that you’re scared yet
Piggy's on the loose but I’m a vegetarian
Jewels in my eyes and they twinkle for the she/hers
Rocks for the men that buy me gear on Reverb

Himbos call me daddy—now where'd I put my leash?
They’re begging me to peg em by the second time we meet
Green and gold rupees, I’m a thug in Hyrule
Been a weird freak on the keys since high school

"Fucking nerd lmao"

A nympho, a klepto, a classical pianist
Catastrophe magnet—um chat are you seeing this?
I like to play with fire—Just a girl, your honor
I get my hands dirty with the first responders
Catch me if you can, I'm a triple air maniac
Tell me that you love me but I don't say it back
Don't know what I'm doing cause I don't stick to ivory
Aw you think you're safe, lemme switch it to a minor key

("Dun dun dun.")

Don't mind me getting stupid with the midi notes
Quantize all the bitches that are [__]ing on my stereo
I wander into genres—out of pocket, on the spectrum
Just a bitch with bangs and a deviated septum

Might be the dumbest piece of shit you’ve ever heard
What did you expect? Not like other girls, I'm worse
[Ah!] is melodic, tempo supersonic—don’t worry
I’ll get back to keys cause the cringe is astronomic

"This was so fucking stupid lmao"
("Shut up. Sing a song.")

Three years later, it's look in your eyes pt. II :)

Lyrics:
/Burn/

/But never mind
Now look in mine/

I sampled the piano piece I was writing before I opened up my laptop in the beginning and end of the track, but you can hear it unmodulated at the end. Everything from scratch 🥘

Lyrics:
/Sabertooth tiger, silver tongue liar
Running down your back, chills are buzzing through a choir

Layers of splatters in orchestrated patterns
Biting on your lip so that they don't hear the chatter/

If you close your eyes and go somewhere, PLEASE let me know where I took you :) it would mean so much to me

A lullaby
To those I’ve ever loved
From me, with guilt
.
Written in June 2024 but felt for as long as I can remember. Sorry for any icky feelings you pick up. This was one of those cathartic ones with a title.
.
Lyrics:
I'm cool, cold as ice and twice as nice
I'm cruel and in return you watch me burn

In the end, I'm really all alone
Making space for sins left to atone
God, I hope you realize when I'm gone
This is for the best and you'll move on

Run out and save yourself
I'm a headache for someone else
Don't you know that it only hurts
So don't make me leave you first

Run out and save yourself
I'm a heartache for no one else
Should've known you'd mistake my worth
So I'll be cruel and leave you first

/Don't waste your time/

I've kinda been writing sequels to old tracks, and this one is for Yet (which I still need to redo). That’s a pic at the Cameron county courthouse because I got legally divorced that day.

Lyrics:
I swear I heard the angels sing once
They called me by my name
And I don’t know where they are now 
I guess I’m the one to blame


Thought it was in my head but
I heard the words they sang
Something about the end so 
I think I led myself astray

Careful now careful now careful now careful now
Precious metal tears are slithering into your crown
Careful now careful now careful now careful now
Heavy hangs the head and yet your heart beats getting loud

I swear I heard the angels sing once
They called me by my name
And I don’t know where they are now 
I guessing I’m to blame

I thought it was in my head but
I heard the words they sang
Something about the end so 
I think I led myself astray

Careful now careful now careful now careful now

This is more than a demo now. I'm also working on the Spotify portfolio stuff.

09.21.24_fleas.wav

The full song is actually really important and a lot bigger, but here it is like this. Brother hopped on the drums for the demo too <3

Lyrics:
Drift out to sea
Pray you’ll reach solid ground
Claw at the coast
The jagged flow throws you around

Drown out the waves
The constellations softly hush
Lull you to sleep in lies and secrets told too much

Cast your gaze on the horizon
What is it you wish to see?
Sailor, come closer

Past the mountain, there you’ll find it
Thank the heavens! “Mercy me,” you whisper
But it’s over
But it’s over

Tale as old as time
Blind to warning signs
Bless a lost man’s soul
Thinks he’s in control

Doomed to try and fail
Damned if he can’t sail
Seas out a sigh
Tired of his cries

This is a composition in midi format with my vocals on it. It exists as a piano piece though.

WHY CAN’T I PUT LYRICS TO THIS ALREADY???
I hear it. Rushed whispers about whatever the quicksand is. I THINK I’M CLOSE… maybe.
We shall see. For now, it can live here in my live archive where I revisit demos to get inspired (and put off organizing my shit).

01.23.25_quicksandskeleton.wav

Enjoy the dryer and Zelda snoring in the back.

Lyrics (so far):
I’m more than a good time
Yes, I’m a bad time too
I’ll cross out every line
I’ll turn those reds into a blue

…

Sometimes I feel like a chicle. Like I taste really good at first, but after you chew me for more than like 4 minutes, you realize, “Damn, this kinda tastes like a rubber tire.” Best to spit that shit out.

Anyway, boohoo.

I hear guitars and shit for this track, but I don’t have time to put it into a real demo. I’ll make time later.

And you feel sick because a guilt spiral led to a shame hangover, and you start to hate the thing you were made to do.

I hope I get in. I want to belong so bad.

Waxing and waning among the numbness and such.

I don’t know how to stop, but I’d like to.

Made this with my phone on a plane right before getting stuck in Vegas. The strings pack was like $15, and I don't like it enough to actually track, but it's fun to play with.

Sopping wet and undone

Lyrics (so far):
My friends call me the junk collector
I stack up all the boxes in a pile a mile high to reach the edges of the ocean with an eye out for my treasure
I follow all the X's but no luck
But no luck

And even if the clouds above me pardoned all my crimes against the water in my bloodstream, I'd have a debt to pay the Southern wind that's rooting for me
Guarding all the exits so I'm stuck
So I'm stuck

I see a hint of gold below and try to mind my business
I'm not a fan of letting go but no reset for the wicked
Don't you know?
Don't you know?

Jule Thief
