Back From Voodoo

[Verse]
Your candles blaze like little stars
They glow brighter than the moon afar
A wish in the air
A spark in your mind
Today’s your moment
Let the world collide

[Chorus]
It’s once a year
The day is yours
Make it wild
Open doors
Blow out the flames
Make it clear
We celebrate you
Once a year

[Verse 2]
The clock keeps ticking
The days roll on
But today’s a spotlight
Your very own song
The cake is sweet
But you’re sweeter still
A day like this
It’s the ultimate thrill

[Prechorus]
No matter the time
No matter the place
We’ll raise a glass
We’ll fill the space

[Chorus]
It’s once a year
The day is yours
Make it wild
Open doors
Blow out the flames
Make it clear
We celebrate you
Once a year

[Bridge]
Birthdays come like shooting stars
They light us up
They heal our scars
One day to shine
One day to cheer
A moment so rare
It’s once a year

Once A Year

Pill Bottle Grave

Hard rock/modern metal track with a dark, gritty feel. Begin with an infectious, heavy bassline—groovy and rhythmic—setting the core riff. Bass enters solo, then layered by tight drums with a punchy groove, followed by distorted guitars mimicking the bass riff with heavy crunch. Verses are moody and spacious, driven by bass and drums. Choruses explode into anthemic modern metal—soaring vocals, layered harmonies, and thick guitars, like Breaking Benjamin or Alter Bridge. Include a spoken-word breakdown inspired by Rage Against the Machine: a low, intense voice rising into a near-scream over a half-time groove, with tight guitar stabs or ambient noise beneath. Then launch into a massive, triumphant final chorus with bright lead guitars and full band energy. End with a slow ambient fade or feedback tail. Cinematic, emotional, intense."

Chasing After The Wind

Find your mind crime
Fear not tomorrow’s story

Strive to untwine
Fear not tomorrow’s story

Waste no more fucking time
Fear not tomorrow’s story

Find your mind crime

Wait
No more time
For your time
No more time
For your time

Find your mind crime
Fear not tomorrow’s story
Waste no more of your fucking time

Come and stake your claim instead
Of hiding in there
Behold your darkest self
Seek your freedom
My friend

Wait
No more time
For your time
No more time
For your time

Find your mind crime
Fear not tomorrow’s story
Waste no more of your fucking time

Mind Crime

Dead By Death

Bowing to the chains
Screaming for a leash
Licking boots
Your cries never cease
A hollow drone
The swarm aligns
Crawling in filth
Begging for signs

Useful Idiot

Verse
Why do I bother trying to convince you
You're such a goddamn cynic
That's not what you say when you're drunk and call me crying
You and I are both to blame
I'm not the only one you play
You're just a liar
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool

Chorus
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you

Verse 2
I don't know why I try to convince you
I guess I can't help it
I mean
Have you seen you?
I can't blame the others for what I feel
You and I are both to blame
I'm not the only one you play
You're just a liar
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool

Chorus
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you
I'm the greyhound
But I still run after you
And it's not like I didn't know you
No
I still run after you

Outro
I'm the greyhound
I'm the greyhound
I'm the greyhound
I'm the greyhound

Greyhound

Trapped behind a sheet of glass, watching my own life bleed out. "Glass Eyes" is the sound of dissociation—the rage of a ghost haunting its own body. This track explores what it means to lose your sense of self, and the desperate fight to get it back. A piece from the next chapter of AIBRY's journey.

Glass Eyes

made this song on tik tok live so go follow me over there lol

APPALACHIAN ECHOES: Folklore Meets Fallout. Brace yourself for a brutal sonic tour through the irradiated backwoods of America’s most storied mountain range. This isn't your grandma's ghost story it's Apocalyptic Appalachia where the Cryptids are real and the radiation has turned legends into living nightmares. We've captured the fear of facing down the towering, winged terror of Mothman, the predatory starvation of the Wendigo, the grotesque march of the Super Mutants and Ghouls, and the alien dread of the Creature of the Flatwoods. Every track is a grim testament to survival in a land of nuclear-haunted folklore. Press play and step into the Echoes.
