I'm enjoying getting crunchy with some electro sprinkled over my punk (and whatever else I feel like making). This particular track is for those days when you feel like a walking red flag.

LYRICS:

Please go, run away
You know I'll bring you down
Please go, run away
You know I'll bring you down
Please go, run away
You know I'll bring you down

I'll tell you now just what I really want from you
You said you want to know
I'm feeling sick and I know you feel it too
Time's up, about to blow
Tornado thoughts, I'm really struggling
Blown away, just watch the show
And when I drop the balls that I'm juggling
I'm falling down, I am crashing down
and no one knows

Please go, run away
You know I'll bring you down
Please go, run away
You know I'll bring you down

Hit the wall when I'm driving at the fastest speed
Then turn around and drive away
Know I should stop, just give it up, and walk from here
But I can't, there's nothing left to say
Here I go, watch me burn down everything
I stand in ashes and I try to breathe
Sure I know what I'm doing to myself and you
I'm falling down, I am crashing down
still can't believe

Down, I will bring you
Down, I will bring you
Down, I will bring you
Down, I will bring you down

I showed you all the things in my mind (ahh)
I know that what I'm asking's unkind
But it's best if I just let you go (go)
And stay here to reap what I sow
One, two, three, WOO!

Please go, run away (Please go)
You know I'll bring you down
Please go, run away (Please go)
You know I'll bring you down
Please go, run away (Please go)
You know I'll bring you down

Please go, please go, please go
Down, I will bring you
Down, I will bring you
Down, I will bring you
Down, I will bring you
Down

BRING YOU DOWN

Hey there, y'all! I'm Funk McPuke, an artist and musician originally from Los Angeles, CA but now living in my own little world.

After being in a bunch of punk and metal bands, I started writing and posting my own music here as a way of journaling feels, processing emotions, having fun with sounds, and annoying my neighbors. I decided early on to always just write whatever I was feeling in the moment and never chase an audience or clicks or clout, the result being that my music is a mix of various styles I like in various balances without any attempt to cater to a particular audience or genre. Depending on the song, you might hear a little punk, metal, grunge, electro, rap, post-hardcore, industrial, or any combination of those and other genres. I like to squish different sounds together and see what happens. If it sounds good, has a catchy hook, and makes me want to either cry or jump on my furniture and break stuff, it gets posted. Soundcloud is my place to play around and have a good time making music I enjoy without overthinking it too much. 

Ymmv. If you like one thing and one thing only -- like, if you're one of those people who believes punk has a uniform or something is "not metal" if it doesn't sound like all the other bands you listen to -- this might not be for you. Or maybe it is. Idk. I'm not the boss of you. Give it a listen and decide for yourself. And, hey, if you don't like one song, try another. You might like that one better.

Either way, I'mma keep writing and posting music for myself. But, y'know, if you find some lyrics you connect with, some hook that makes you bounce around your house, or just something to put on while you FINALLY do those dishes that have been stinking up your kitchen for the past week, then welcome. Even though I'm not chasing an audience, I do love getting messages from people who've connected with something I've made. It makes me feel less alone in the world and, for all those people who've messaged me in the past or will message me in the future, I appreciate you. I truly do. Thanks for stopping by and giving me a listen. I may write this music for myself because I think that's the best way to keep it honest, but I still believe music, like all art, is best when it's shared.
