Hole - Celebrity Skin

This is a backing track for a solo improv guitar performance I am putting together.  It is centered around D-major, but varies a bit between the key of G and D (except for the interlude).  You can play D-major pentatonic over everything but the interlude as a safe zone, but depending on where you are at in the song you can play D Ionian (major scale) or D myxolydian, with the only diff being the the 7th or flat 7th.  As neither of those notes are in the major pentatonic, it fits over all the chords.

At the interlude, I switch to the key of A and you'll want to play A major/D lydian over that section.

Defiance

We are rolling the rock up a hill
To watch it roll down where it was before
Always rolling that rock up a hill
And sometimes that's hardly a metaphor

Then you stumble on a mode of resistance
That some others seem to know without thinking

The arrival at a style
Of defiance
It's a noble attitude
The appliance of a science
Of defiance

This contract, it is sometimes insufferable
And despite that you're intended to suffer it all
The outlook predictably unpredictable
For a life's work that will recede to nothing at all

Can you summon up a show of resistance
Like some others seem to do without blinking

The survival of your trials
In defiance
It's a noble attitude
The appliance of a science
Of defiance
Is the strategy to chose

To resist in the face of what's certain
May appear on the face of it worthless
But you're showing your disgust at the format
That you'll grant life some purpose despite that

I am offering this course of resistance
As the closest thing I've heard yet to wisdom

The survival of your trials
In defiance
It's a noble attitude
The appliance of a science
Of defiance
On the only path we use

You don't have to stand for this
And you don't have to take it lying down either
You don't have to stand for this
And you don't have to take it lying down either

Written, performed and produced by Oliver Shaw

Defiance (Edit)

Of me you keep making a mess

“Vicious Cycle” is a fierce and unflinching dive into the torment of repeating voices and destructive patterns. With raw language and relentless energy, the song captures the suffocating loop of abuse and self-doubt, before breaking into defiance. It’s an anthem of rage and refusal, a battle cry against the chains of a toxic cycle.

   Vicious Cycle

By Ethereal Siren

[Verse 1]
The cycle goes round and round,
Fuck you,
And you’re fucking loud.

The voices told me,
You are due,
Listening and going to pursue.
Very few don’t know what to do,
But assume —
I see fume.

[Chorus]
I refuse,
My thoughts abuse,
For I am making
A noose —
For good use.

[Verse 2]
The voices told me, you are due,
Listening and going to pursue.
Very few don’t know what to do,
But assume —
I see fume.

[Bridge]
They follow in suit
With pursuit.

[Final Chorus / Outro]
The voices told me, you are due,
Listening and going to pursue.
Very few know what to do,
But assume —
I see mother fucking fume.

Vicious Cycle


I don't really care
I don't really care
I don't really care
I don't really care


I don't really care
you brought something
that i need no more

skinned me fixed you fancy clothes
ill eat me leave you naked

I don't really care
you brought something
that i need no more


i wont buy what your selling
pressure is now around your  throat


i can see you i'm around you
i predict you,  ill grow inside you


Drowning in sea
Drowning in sea
I can feel it
Drowning in sea
Hung from a tree
Now i can seeit


way down your sacred love
I can feel it, I can taste it
Drowning in sea
Tell me that you can taste it


been drown by your sacred love
I can feel it, I can taste it
Drowning in sea
Tell me that you can taste it


We're down secret love
I can feel it, I can taste it
Drowning in sea
Tell me that you can taste it

NGO War - Tri Subversion




We walked in shadows, hand in hand,
Two trembling hearts we didn’t understand.
Your voice was soft, the world was cold
We tried to bloom, but grief took hold.

Oh, tragic love, La di da, da da, oh girl,
A quiet room where echoes ache.
Tragic love
Two brittle hearts too prone to break.

You spoke of futures wrapped in grey,
I felt them slipping day by day.
A final glance, a turning door
Now I’m the ghost you don’t wait for.

Oh, tragic love, La di da, da da, oh girl,
A quiet room where echoes ache.
Tragic love
Two brittle hearts too prone to break.

And in the night, I feel you near
A fading trace of what was dear.
Tragic love
I carry you like sorrow’s souvenir.


Oh, tragic love, La di da, da da, oh girl,
A quiet room where echoes ache.
Tragic love
Two brittle hearts too prone to break.


Oh, tragic love, La di da, da da, oh girl,
A quiet room where echoes ache.
Tragic love
Two brittle hearts too prone to break.
