Upside Down

Rude Boy

Told You

I’ll be so alright 
I’ll be so alright 
In a darkness past jet black 
I can tell you there’s no trail back 
And I know that you’re still here 

You can fear me if you want 
Do you want to hear a joke?
You can fear me if you want
You know 
I can’t tell if you’re the laughing kind 

In an alabaster fog
Trying to regain my bearings 
Think I know where you are 
I can feel your presence 
I can feel your presence 
I like it here 
I don’t wanna leave yet 

I’ll be so alright

I know you’re still here 

Do you want to hear a joke?
I don’t know…

I can’t tell if you’re the laughing kind
I can’t tell if you’re the laughing kind

The Laughing Kind

The third rather experimental vocal track.  A lot of compressing sections to go faster and match instrumentals.

Lyrics:


And if it isn't too much trouble
I would like to know just what you were angling for
For the time... grows...short
To search for redress, tidy the mess

Riddle me this

As we sit here treading water
Why is it that you keep dodging the issue
Are the terms... too... steep
To broker a deal
What is it you feel

I didn't want, to be cruel
But there comes a time
Begging validation
Plays me for the fool

Scaling Up In Meatspace

Buy on Beatport

Slightly autobiographical.  Although I will add for Danika's benefit I do understand that revenge is for children and the emotionally retarded, about ninety-seven percent of music is purging demons about the significant Other.

Lyrics:


All the tireless individuation i was doing
While the normalites were screwing
Means that trouble has been brewing for a while

When we get around to settling
The imbalance that's been nettling
There may be a confrontation off the top of the dial

It takes a fair amount of being a pussy
To build a world based on passing the buck
But when the choice is between
Some of the men that you've seen
Is the cagey guy the one you want to fuck


Though it's indicated to be tough
And we wonder what's enough
I should be gentle all the same

But when the gadflies of the swarm
Were causing genuine harm
It takes a fair amount of being a pussy
To shield them from the blame

It Takes A Fair Amount Of Being A Pussy

Lyrics

Was I ever even happy, 
  kept doubting me about it all
  Didn´t care to see myself that well to see
  I was the only one to make my world
  
  Always seeking for their love and 
  Forgot about my real love
  Hearing every doubt they had on me  
  I was falling for every word
  
  
  Time is out 
  I don´t care for anyone
  I will do now what I want  
    
  
  Turns out that you never really had me in doubt honey
  I know they never beleived 
  I saw then laughing at me  
  
  Turns out that they never really had me down honey 
  I´m strong but never beleived they would be creeping on me
  
  Always seeking for their love and 
  Forgot about my real love
  Hearing every doubt they had on me  
  I was falling for every word
  
  Was I ever even happy, 
  kept doubting me about it all
  Didn´t care to see myself that well to see
  I was the only one to make my world
  
  Time is out 
  I don´t care for anyone
  I will do now what I want 
  
  Turns out that they never really had me down honey 
  I´m strong but never beleived they would be creeping on me
  
  Turns out that you never really had me in doubt honey
  I know they never beleived 
  I saw then laughing at me

Reach Out

Second song off my album. Prod. by Aspect Beats https://soundcloud.com/user-770615520

Sinkin by Luke Riedel Prod. by Aspect Beats

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
