part of you never comes back far from this pull forgotten and all of those i left strewn about the bottom are all our needs anaesthetised recess into a vein numbing weaker chasing dead dreams and cures that never came intrusion i can't stop bear life into me just to feel something in a cold so deadening nothing left to express cold from this dead and rotten and what the vermin left withering discarded a retreat so unclean excess into a vein numbing weaker dead to all things to end this suffering intrusion i can't stop it's taken over me just to feel at peace in a world that brings no such thing

Nepenthe

no one knows this fear no one hears this silent scream crippled condemned yet still alive and i'm left alone to bleed and all i can do is suffer fastened to my fate just a helpless piece of mangled meat i'm left to decay scalding skins from ligaments shackled limbs to meet the saw acceptance in ignorance bellies burn with turgid rot life will end as it began kicking flailing helplessly no one knows this fear
no one hears this silent scream ill pinioned downed and beaten pale anemic pink and all i hear is laughter cackling in my face just a writing piece of rotted meat
dead in my own waste killing blade rips inhumane acts ignored behind closed doors
upside slain for blood to drain dried up on the killing floor life will end as it began kicking flailing helplessly inject me brand me skin me tear me kill me chew me swallow me consume me

Killing Floor

Initially uses motifs from Bulgarian choral music, but this spins away a bit in the end.

Made for a video project with Vincent Comparetto.

Irgendwo in Budapest

I finished this song 8 months ago, and at the time I considered it one of the best things I ever wrote. I sent it around to just about everyone I could think of in hopes I could get some help promoting my musical vision to a wider audience. Everywhere I turned I was rejected, with a generally unanimous "this is really cool, but it doesn't belong here". And so I sat on it until I forgot about it. In the interim, I haven't created a meaningful piece of music since. Considering this song a form of curse, I'm hoping its release can free me to continue making newer and even more imaginative music. Given distance from the song I now see where I need to improve. Regardless, I hope you can enjoy this sound journey I've created.
