I'm speaking Arapaho here for a vision quest...

Radio chatter that Logan hears in his head over and over...

Suicidal and insanity, a voice that Logan must resist...

Ali Clark on lead guitar, doubled in an ask / response echo...

Share the trust in your destiny - only by trusting others can Logan survive against the voices in head...We are not alone.

Logan is a CSI for the sheriffs department, listening in on these radio calls...

Native American languages. . . very interesting.  I am pulled in.

Very nice atmosphere, interesting lyrics, great guitar and vocal lines! Earthly (in the best way possible) and deeply honest. Great work!

Wayfaring Stranger

A new Grammys® entered single by Gary Wayne Clark (a.k.a. Earamas®) - Dark and powerful, unearthly and haunting, an eerie supernatural dreamscape wrapped inside a musical vision quest of progressive rock interwoven with the tribal rhythms of Native American drums, flutes and voices.

Inspired by Clark's top selling murder mystery novel “Dead Balance”, the music and lyrics of Logan’s Lament draws the listener into a dream turned nightmare in the creepy mountain town of Deadraven beneath the shadow of the Continental Divide. It is in this surreal world that Grammys® Recording Academy Artist Gary Wayne Clark (Earamas®; Rise of the Chimera, Passage to Niburu) reveals his adept musical and lyrical terror that places you inside the mind of Logan Lone Bear Tuu'awata, a troubled Arapahoe boy with a paranormal talent for locating dead bodies, as he slowly descends into madness. 

With a host of ethereal voices speaking in a demented dream language of Arapaho, Hopi, Spanish and English, Logan’s Lament delivers a frightful and disturbing mood for any brave souls that dare to don their headphones and venture into the dark corners of the mind. After listeners double-check the lock on the closet door and peer under the bed, they will be destined to sleep restlessly with one eye open… for the more they listen, the more they will hear.

Song Inspiration
For all those who are suffering in their own silent insanity, who hear voices from the dark, and are contemplating a permanent solution to a temporary problem, do not despair. Listen to me, I am telling you a story. You are strong; you and I are strong. If you reach out you will find that other kindred souls are out there, waiting to hear your voice.

“Hoo3itoo. Koo-he-etn-oo3itoon-e3?” 
A story. Should I tell you a story?
“Beneeni-noo neyoooxet cowo’oot.” 
I am a whirlwind passing by. 
“Hehheisonoonin neniitoneino', noh hebesiibeih'in,”
Let them hear us, our fathers and our grandfathers, 
“Heetihcihkoutee' hoowu3oow hiine'etiit.”
So that the breath of life will endure for all time.
~Arapaho Proverb

Crooked Man
© 2020 Gary Wayne Clark. All Rights Reserved

An ancient tale with a modern twist.. dark poetry, intelligent rap, and multi-layered SFX are entwined with ethereal waves that weave a prophetic tapestry of addiction, despair, and a fleeting hope of recovery from the grip of an epidemic that consumes the lives around us and haunts our soul – we dare not turn away.

Music and Lyrics by Gary Wayne Clark

Oh why?
Oh why?

There was a crooked man,
he walked a crooked mile.
He made a crooked potion,			
For souls he could defile. 			 

He bought a crooked cat,			
Who caught a crooked mouse.			
And they all mollycoddled, 			
In their little crooked house.

Now the crooked mouse was dying,
From her snow of china white.
No golden girl could save her, 			
From her crooked little plight.

Now The crooked man was sad,
Then he had a crooked thought.
Why should he be jailed as crooked -  
When the others, they were not.

Suicide, genocide.. curse your bloody name,
Money train, ball and chain.. damn your house of shame.
Ritual, habitual.. atonement nevermore,
Murder-8, desecrate..  reaper guarantor.

Invisible, Deplorable.. walk your crooked mile,
Victimize, stigmatize.. banish me exile.
Castigate, incarcerate.. fill your slaughterhouse, 
Crooked cat, crooked mouse.. fuck your crooked house!

There was a crooked man,
And he walked a crooked mile.
He made a crooked potion,			 
For souls he could defile. 			  

He bought a crooked cat,			  
Who caught a crooked mouse.			 
And they all mollycoddled, 			 
In their little crooked house.

Now the story’s not yet over,
As the tale for you unfolds.
Better hide under the covers,
Or your soul will be controlled. 

Out there the crooked man is waiting,		
Selling toxin with his strife.
And he won’t be satisfied, 
‘Til he takes your crooked life -
Crooked life, 
Crooked life..

Oh why?
Oh why?
Oh why?
Oh why?

Dead Fall

Crooked Man

When man alters the natural variation of genetic evolution by splicing in a competing strain of 4 amino acids to mutate a higher probability of reproduction, the events are unnatural, and unintended events can happen. Stay tuned, it's not over yet. 

In my alternate variation of one particular universe, I don't know if it is real, or just a dream. But if it is real, this one's for you, Trevor. Blue is the color, football is the game. We're all together, and winning is our aim. Party on, but don't get above your raising - and keep my flat on Kensington Square tidy, I'll return soon  --
