Side 2 Side

Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Tell me straight, don’t twist the truth
Is it me, or just my youth?

You shine me back, a crooked grin
Lines of time upon my skin
Eyes still bright but filled with doubt
What’s this thing they call "burnout"?

Oh, mirror, mirror, talk to me
Are they right, or can’t they see?
Am I fraud or something real?
Tell me what I’m supposed to feel

Mirror sighs, says, "Here we go
Same old dance, same old show
A mind so sharp, yet full of fear
Why won’t you trust what’s written here?"

Mirror, mirror, tell me true
Who to trust and what to do?
Voices pull from left and right
One says "stay," one says "fight."

Mirror laughs, its surface clear
"You trust your doubt but not what’s near
Your hands have built, your mind is true
Why’s that so hard to trust in you?"

Oh, mirror, mirror, I hear you now
A little late, but tell me how?
To trust the voice, to own my name
To stand up tall inside the frame

Mirror, mirror, on the wall
I ain't perfect, but I stand tall
Not the fairest, not the best
But I am me-and that’s my test
Not the fairest, not the best
But I know me-that’s my rest

Mirror, Mirror

Lyrics:

The chandelier fell on her
The lights lost in a blur 
This was the END OF TIMEs they warned
She would turn the television on 
It wouldn't outdo her wrongs
My head starts to spin around

Parade round the town I feel like the pharaoh of Cairo
Was the hurricane now you find me in the chateau  
I have fire in my mind living on borrowed time
Lonely nights I self destruct oh it's just my good luck

Nothing lasts forever
The world just keeps moving on
All I wanted was your love
No such thing as paradise
Baby it's the END OF TIME
I got lost on the climb

Poseidon used to rule the sea
Before we ravaged it with glee
Now it was the END OF TIME
Final farewell I bid
All the legacy they undid
They all laughed as I soon drowned
Beyond the grave I wonder
Was I their favorite thunder

Diamonds on my neck I guess I'm really living life
L.A. is on flames as I speed down the 405
When they find me in the hotel maybe they will know
Lonely nights I self destruct guess I reaped what I sowed

Nothing lasts forever
The world just keeps moving on
All I wanted was your love
No such thing as paradise
Baby it's the END OF TIME
I got lost on the climb

Standing on the ledge I look down see the hell of it
Sick of pretending I want to rule without love
I get so tired and scared of myself
Midnight it gets lonely I face the cards I was dealt

(I was dealt)

Nothing lasts forever
The world just keeps moving on
All I wanted was your love
No such thing as paradise
Baby it's the END OF TIME
I got lost on the climb

Nothing lasts forever
When you're the big spender
I leave with a final bow
'Cause baby it's the END OF TIME

Maybe the man was Right

This EP is a sonic exploration blending rawness with pure emotion. "House Dust" immerses us in the soul of Detroit with its gritty rhythms and the unmistakable power of the 909, evoking a dust storm on the dance floor. "So Alive" is a festive explosion, merging tech house with classic house elements where celebration transforms into pure energy. "Blind Love," a collaboration with Cloz and Lucciana, shifts to a more melodic realm, featuring vocals inspired by the 2000s and subtle trance undertones that create a deep, nostalgic atmosphere. The EP also features a groovy and minimal remix by Panko A&R from U’re Guay Records. Each track carries the signature "dirty" feel of the EP, making for an unforgettable sensory experience.
