A punk dossier in 13 tracks — the story of a runt bluejay recruited into the shadows, where survival costs everything and flight means never looking back.

The Pine Tree Burns

drug friends by Nova J

[Intro]
Mmm whuhmm

[Verse 1]
When you were high, they were stopping by
When supplies ran low, they hit the road
If you stock back up, they wanna come ‘round 
All them flakes and fakes, fillin’ up your place
With their tall tales, like killer whales
Comin’ for your blow hole

[Pre Chorus]
But you can’t sustain the life they demand
To hang out with your ice in their cocktail glass

[Chorus]
Cuz they drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends 

[Hook]
Whoa oooh but drug friends 

[Verse 2]
Cuz they all say how much they love it there
If they play games and scroll for days
And they all show up ‘till you fool yourself
Into thinking you’re popular in all ways 
And you can’t believe you put faith in phony rats
And you’re sick n’ tired of fair weather sycophants 

[Chorus]
Cuz they drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends 

Drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends 

[Hook]
(Whoa oh oh ooop oh oh ooop)
Whoa oooh whoa oooh 
whoa ooooh whoa ooooh whoa oh oh whoa oh oh

[Bridge]
You wrote your best friend from rehab
He stood you up when you got clean 
Your friend with benefits ghosts you 
Cuz sober sex ain’t his game
Your heart is broke n’ betrayed 
By they selfish and hurtful ways

[Chorus]
Cuz they drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends 

Drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends 

[Hook]
(Whoa oh ooop whoa oh oh ooop oooh whoa whoa)
Whoa oh oh ooop oh oh ooop oooh whoa oh whoa oooh

[Final Chorus]
Drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends 

Drug friends, drug friends
They got nothin’ nothin’ nothin’
You got nothin’ to lose
Nothin’ to lose but drug friends

drug friends

A romantic-period symphonic journey through a single sunrise that becomes myth. From the hush before dawn to the full crown of daylight, each track unfolds in internal movements, carrying a recurring Sun Motif that rises from shadow into radiance. Wordless choir appears as birdsong, bright air, and distant angelic warmth, lifting the orchestra toward a playful, energetic confidence—the feeling that today is “The Golden Day,” and it’s going to be wonderful.

[intro]

[instrumental]

[verse]
In the halls I hear laughing
and everybody looks at me
they look away when I come by
and don't care what I see

Girls want me to feel bad
They say that I am weird
And that maybe I should go
Why did we ever move here?

I did not wanna move

I was fine at my old school
No one ever looked at me
I had a place where I could hide
And at least they let me be

at least they let me be

[chorus]
I am headed for my school
I hate every damn day
This time I'll fix it all
They all are gonna pay

[instrumental]

[verse]
I hate every one
And my dad has got a gun
I know where it is hidden
and I won't care when I am done

I looked it up on the dark web
Talked to people on a chat
I know how to use it
I know the safety where it's at

[verse]
I found a guy who has the ammo
He shipped it straight to me
I ordered fifty rounds
and they weigh about three pounds
The gun weighs two pounds more
It all fits in my pack
And I'm gonna pay them back

I think it'll be enough

I think it'll be enough

[chorus]
I am headed for my school
I hate every damn day
This time I'll fix it all
They all are gonna pay

I am headed for my school
I hate every damn day
This time I'll fix it all
They all are gonna pay

They all are gonna pay

They all are gonna pay

They all are gonna pay

They all are gonna pay
