Massive Attack influenced track with lots of bits of the obscure

Sad Playground

This track is my musical view of the deep dark secrets that we all have.

Dark Silence In Suburbia

An honest prog rock song wrapped in experimental clothing

Something Else

Two conflicting views are presented in one.  Intriguing and compelling vocals from JJWEEKZ give the track an urgency in the midst of a relaxed musical setting.

The Watchman

Stained Glass Martyr

Jumper (Edit)

Another collaboration with the lovely and talented JJWEEKZ

Hurting

WISHES

The intro track to THE WISH ASYLUM.  Very mood setting.  It does incorporate vocals but there are no defined lyrics for this song.

The Poisoned Asylum

Dead Before Sunrise

Sociopath

Closer To Further

Alive on the Outside

A work in progress called Porcelain.  Very Duran Duran

Porcelain

Hard at work trying to come up with lyrics for this

Window Pane

Doctor

This is a work in progress that is just about done.  I figured I would post it and see what the general concensus was. Special thanks to JJ Weekz for her vocal talent.

A Taste of Eden

Frozen

LYRICS:

I can't tell if this is a dream or reality
Wish I could see the difference between
the nightmare and the fantasy
Maybe it's rolled into one
Maybe we're still having fun
Or maybe we're still hooked to the machine
Making us think we're free

Woke up on the wrong side of the bed today 
And hit my head
Covered up the blemishes and all the hurt
with smiles of lead
Maybe it's a better thing
If I don't know what's happening
Cuz baby we're still hooked to the machine
Making us think we're dead

My wish is that
One day we will know the truth

Jealous of the freedom
We could have
Knowing they could never
break free of the programs
Contortions

In Passing
