Alister McKendrick x Dan Jackson - Chill

You felt so good inside my chest
A tickling feeling
You're so much better than all the rest

Sit inside that open door
Saw your body
Life outlined on the floor

Never been so critical
About your sadness
You lived your life out miserable

And if you ever went to heaven
A burning pillar
And God is nothing but a weapon

And if you ever feel alive
I hear you cry
And if you ever told a lie
I hear you cry
And so did I

Trying again to get "Boardtown Prophets" up to radio volume. I think, this time, that I can compete in the loudness wars.

Song entirely recorded, mixed, and mastered in the free program "Garage Band" using a decent real instruments, a crappy drumset, and a decent microphone.

Lyrics:

Boardtown Prophets 

All the boardtown prophets live up here 
and they don’t know each other 
don’t know each other 

All the board town prophets live upstairs 
and they come down for supper 
they don’t earn their supper 

And we wait for the day 
When they give back all the bread 
And we wait for the sound 
Of the peal of the bells for the dead 


All the boardtown prophets give us stares 
when we turned off the spigot 
turned off the spigot 

And all the boardtown prophets went away 
and nobody missed them 
nobody kissed them 

And we wait for the day 
When we take back all the bread 
And wait for the sound 
Of the wails of the crowd for our head 

I’m a boardtown prophet and I live up here 
You pay for my supper 
Pay for my supper 

And when the writing appears on the wall 
I’ll kneel before you 
I’ll kneel before you 

And I’ll bear my neck 
And unfold my hands 
And if you give a nod 
I will work all your lands

Boardtown Prophets

It's like staying up late and never being able to fall asleep until six a.m. and the show you were watching on Comedy Central turns into an infomercial about the greatest set of kitchen knives ever.

'Buffalina'

O' Buffalina, you are my love alright
I was so blind lost inside your city's light tonight
Will I make it out alright?
Well, I don't know, nor can I imagine what I'll find out there
On the rattling of the rails in summertime

I'm treading over beds of clover to the strand
I wear my luck upon my right hand
Make it easy, make it simple, please make it bad
Show me what I've never had
And you cant stand looking for direction, charting paths
When you're always running over panes of broken glass
And I don't know, nor can I imagine where I'll be
One day, some time and place where it all becomes too much for me

O' Buffalina, be my love tonight for the last time
You've been so kind and patient in stranger times
I've made up my mind
Now I've never seen you shine so bright

Buffalina [Demo]

Sorry the volume is all fucked up.

LYRICS:

home
heaven is here and far
alone
paper and piles of bone
skies
clearer than heavens eyes
skies
clearer than heavens eyes

step across the lawn
so i can see what’s going on
green and blue
and gold
can’t you see this is growing old
green and blue
and gold (x3)
just do what your told

home
heaven is here and far
alone
paper and piles of bone
skies
clearer than heavens eyes
skies
clearer than heavens eyes
