i cry my eyes to sleep
i find the time 
in dreams
holy water, keep me
hallowed 
in dreaded certainty

i dry my eyes to sleep
on borrowed time, believe
holy water, keep me
out of this 
insanity

(this aint going away, this aint going away)

(when the power runs out, believe)

holy water, keep me
out of this reality

i cry my eyes to sleep
and there i find
little me

(just sleep, to sleep...)

We noticed that you cancelled your subscription
We want you back
If you’ve got a few spare moments
Please tell us why you left
Think the boss is going to kill me
You’re the straw that broke my back

No I’m not a robot
Go on try and test me
I’ve passed the Turing test
I’ll never repeat the same thing twice
I’ll never repeat the same chord twice

Was it the cost?
Was it the content?
Was it the way we badger you with questions?

Now
We’re losing our subscribers
Quick increase the price
That will surely fix things
Time to right the ship
The machines are taking over 
One human at a time
Tick this box, I’m not a robot 
Time to stop, I can’t maintain this
One human at a time

I Will Never Grow Old DEMO

Come on down you synth-folk slacker cyberpunks
I know you must be lonesome

Inviting all the wretches and the feckless
I know you’ll find your home soon

Way out there
Fade away
Ungracefully
In obscurity

Another Place

The first girl who I met that wasn’t my mother,
it turns out, it turns out,
it turns out, 
she’s my sister

So his ship can do the Kessel Run,
in 12 or 13 parsecs,
you should see me, you should see me, 
bulls-eye a womp rat

So I’ve got so much more going on,
than a simple bionic arm

and I thought the only thing I’d ever love, 
was my burned out T-16

Well, I’ve got so much more on my mind,
than a simple bionic arm

She Sings In Her Sleep

The Loneliest Man In The World…

I still shout ‘Hello’ whenever I come home
Though silence is a deafening reply
I bring you up to scratch on the news of my day
Talking to myself helps the time pass by
& memories are a double-edged sword
But I still I raid them – coz I can…

Coz when I close my eyes I still see you
& when I open them I just miss you more
I am the loneliest man in the world… these days
These days…

Your coat’s there – still hanging at the foot of the stairs
Coz I can’t bear to move it
Coz your perfume clings to its collar & cuffs
& I sometimes hold it near just to smell you 
& the answer machine still holds your message
& I play it sometimes coz I can

Coz when I close my eyes I still see you
& when I open them I still miss you more
I am the loneliest man in the world… these days
Coz when I close my eyes I still see you
& when I open them I just miss you more
Yeah I’m the loneliest man in the world… these days
These days…

The Loneliest Man In The World by The Ramsden Squares

Inspired by a quote from Marilyn Monroe's journal entry - "only parts of us can ever touch parts of others."

Parts

Inspired by a sleepless summer night

Summer Storm

I been up all night
I should be sleeping,
Winds are blowing strong.
the roof is caving in,
I'm just waiting til dawn.

Its blowing a gale
and my ship set sail,
Left me here on the docks.
I should be counting sheep,
but i'm just watching the clock.

This mind don't rest,
I try my best to gently 
shut it down.
Seems i'm stuck while the wheels 
are spinning around...

I been up all night
Oh i should be sleeping
winds are blowing strong
the roof is caving in
I'm just waiting til dawn.

Its changing form
this summer storm,
playing tricks in the night.
Electricity and flashes of light....
