lyrics

Shield your eyes 
protecting life lessons from truthful impressions
tragic love
what I do is not without purpose I'll follow through
trade places with me I promise you fortunes 
think about it carefully the fruitful possibilities 
It's what brings us closer
It's above you all
take this it'll help to keep you warm through the cold night's chill
rumor suggests that that I'm on my last legs just don't forget me yet
I'll watch this wine turn into water
I'll watch this water turn into clouds
I'll watch these clouds turn into water
love what I do is not without purpose I'll follow through
tomorrow I'll pick a direction one has never gone
it surely can't go wrong
I wish I could have tried to survive 
don't worry about me it's silly I admit to lose sleep 
hold me closely tonight
watching waiting 
take the warmth right from me now I'm all alone over indulged in precious things
I've left a legacy 
trade places with me I promise you fortunes 
think about it carefully the fruitful possibilities 
It's what brings us closer
moving the mountains

Untitled Demo (TesseracT)

Seeing how today is my first official release with TesseracT, I figured I share one of the two auditions that got me in the band in the first place. I received "Deception" literally the night before I went to track it. Some of the timing might be off, but thats because I basically had to learn it while tracking it, as I was not familiar with the tune. Also, I didn't know whether or not to track the backing harmonies, so I left Dan's in there. I also do not use NEARLY as much vibrato when preforming this now hahaha. Anyways, don't take it too seriously as it was just an audition ^__^

TesseracT audition (Deception)

Zack wrote this song to test out his Axe-Fx ultra. I thought it was pretty cool so I put some lyrics to it and did a little singing and screaming over it. Enjoy

Lyrics
Break through
my thoughts have shadowed disaster 
The steps taken have shown who I am and where we all begin




Break through
Heavy and heartfelt I promise
Use caution to ward off the threats I'm just living my own life
While taking time just to show what I am, the feeling that something was lost
My sails need wind
your desperation eludes common ground I'm sure its something we can work on
Tell me your tales while you're twisting the truth
Sail
Manpower makes this boat move in the harshest of ways
Trust me follow
Break through
Emotions run deep and flourish 
all the days that were caught in the rain
brave storms I'm on my way 
how could the weather bring on such a farce and leave everything tragic

Sails (SEA Demo)

Here's another one of Zack's old ideas that was just kind of laying around. I did the vocals and he did everything else hahah.

Zack Ordway: Guitars, Bass, Drums, Programming
Elliot Coleman: Vocals

Lyrics
This candle is only pleasure to burn when two are around 
The wick lasts only as long as you let it
But what if it was a premature snuff
Would you relight the flame
I guarantee you everythings the way it should be
Ignore the things that matter most I've choked on pride before 
I synthesize words into my brain
Where did you learn to paint my frame in such a passionate way
Cleanse your pallet
film noir tones (Ease the eyes) Sepia's no surprise
I'll take clay and mold it into a heart of gold
There's comfort in the absence of leaves I know that cause I 
tried to paint a picture of the sky but the charcoal grays don't mix well cause I'm blending with my eyes 
Connect the dots and try to see if the image matches mine accordingly 
I think not you used red instead of grey 
a cinematic tone I can't match
I synthesize words into my brain
A synthetic polymer my mind creates
I'll take clay and mold it in to a heart of gold
There's comfort in the absence of leaves I know that cause I 
tried to paint a picture of the sky but the charcoal grays don't mix well cause I'm blending with my eyes
Connect the dots and try to see
if the image you drew looks like me

Algorithms (SEA Demo)

This is a song by Haunted Shores that Mark and Misha asked me to sing on for the upcoming album. Will Downey from Oceanic Studios recorded the clean singing, and Spencer Sotelo recorded my screams.

Lyrics
 never thought that I could get in your way girl
I only wanted to show you my charm
 I never thought that I could get in your way girl
I only wanted to show you my charm
Well here's to tonight where everything could be a moment of pure elation and sensory 
Binary code revoke them of magnetic waste 
The things I said i've never done 
Speak louder then the silent ones 
Still hold fast the day
I take a moment to examine my surroundings territories that crash and burn 
I think the time and effort spent on this will make up for what I've never learned
There's a familiar trend
take everything and smash it to pieces 
and it seems to me that something must be wrong
the pieces reform and sit collecting dust

there was a time when I could not stand
to take you on the thought of it frightened me 
I never thought that I could get in your way girl
Bathed in blue light a city that quietly sleeps
I only wanted to show you my charm
Tired and true absences 
I never thought that I could get in your way girl
Trust in me with confidence that everything will turn out right
I only wanted to show you my the pieces reform and sit collecting dust
I never thought that I could get in your way girl
