of dice and men

Summer

dice

the deer

Spineless

i've been to this place
been looking to my heart
i've seen how hard it was
just to let you play your part

we both knew it was high
where we fell we felt
we have all the room for questions but
i just want you to be mine

where all those rivers flow
and yeah those rivers know
there's no rest for the wicked
or the cynical

if all those ticks do fall
like rain drops to your skin
i know i'm too far away
from my comfort zone

i don't want to be back
or awake
maybe i should let the silent
do its trick
and find my way around those ticks.



The Muzzle

When it does give you,
The time to question yourself
Well, don't

When your arms do tremble
and you have no one to lean to
Try yourself

I know you will falter
We all do
But when it counts, 
Don't

There is no room for doubts
or pleasantries
if it makes you doubt
let it go.

I know you will falter
We all do
I know you will fall
We all do
I know you want to go
or let it all go

shackles are usually
the one thing that binds to that ledge
when you are free
you fall

when you fall
just get up
'cause that's what you do.

The Accomplice

First and probably last take of this track. Live again. 
the title could be Rest in Nice but it's not. 

R.in

It's the first take of this song - which was originally improvised during flu (the intent of the song was benefiting from its mystical healing powers, which it did not have) - drums are raw, there are some cohesion problems, wasn't in mood for improvisation - will replace this one with a better live take sooner or later. Uploaded it with the intent of possible patchwork during this process. If anyone wants to hop in the process, just tell me via pm.

F.A.Q

Why do you make music? 

If i had a reason not to, i wouldn't.  (and your neighbours are disturbed, is not a real reason, they will be disturbed one way or the other.) 

Why do you make those glitchy noises, it's like a plane is crashing beside me and what is with all those toy-piano sounds, they sound like characters from a japanese cartoon?

Because i'd like to hear them. I play with a raw audio signal, until i get the sound that fits the picture in my imagination and as you can see my imagination is pretty messed up. 

You say you are making music but do you play any instrument?

I sing and i'm quite bad at that. A 6 year old can play better keyboard and/or guitar than me. Moreover i can't play a straight note from the flute. I tried Sax once, couldn't get a "beep" out of it, tried Theremin but due to my lack of self control, i almost tore my eyelid off.  So you can call me a multi-instrumentalist of some sort. 

Can i remix, download, sing or just piss on your work?

You can do whatever you want, you don't even have to give me credit. I don't really care. But i'd appreciate if you just bother to tell me, you are using my work and send me the end results. Because i'm a fan of patchwork and fusion. But piss? Not as much. But i can always ignore you, can't i? But nevertheless feel free to do whatever you want, who am i to judge?

If somehow we liked your sound, can we watch you perform live? 

Not really. I'd need a band to perform all these songs live, for which i don't really have time. So you'd need to stick with my scrapbook for the time being, the situation might change - but it's very unlikely. 

Can we buy your album or stuff? 

Well if someone really wants a song badly, i can allow downloading. I'm really not interested in making in any profit from my music hence i don't really think i'll publish anything. Even if i do, it would be on donation basis, which i don't think is very likely? Who on their right mind would support me? (: 

Can we use your lyrics?

As long as you don't distort them, they are free game as well.
