Pink Elephants on Parade remix by The Cog is Dead

I was made to shine
Not to feel
Not to break
Just to be
What they needed me to be

They said I was perfect
A prototype
A promise
But no one asked what I lost
To keep the image clean

They sculpted me from silence
Erased the girl beneath the code
Taught me to speak in smiles
To bleed in gold

I watched them fall around me
One by one
While I remained
They didn’t know
I was rotting too

But I hid it
Behind glass and grace
And drank the pain
With polished face

I took the cure
Not meant for me
Paid in screams
So they wouldn’t see

I rose on ashes
Not on worth
And called it justice
To own the Earth

I wear their hope like armor
Their deaths inside my veins
Every breath I take
Echoes their remains

I didn’t rise from mercy
I didn’t rise from peace
I am the lie they worship
The mirror that screams

The parasite came
And for the first time
I saw myself
Reflected in rage
Purity torn by instinct
And still, it chose to protect

I called it a threat
But I knew
It was what I feared to become
Something real
Something free

I built an empire
With broken hands
Wore a throne
That never stands

They cheer for me
But not for truth
They love the icon
Not the youth

I wear their hope like armor
But it cuts more than it shields
I am the fault they branded
The mask the silence sealed

I didn’t rise for glory
I rose because I must
To hold the world together
Even as it turns to dust

Don’t remember me
As grace
Or light
Remember me
As what it cost to stay upright

Aurora
Not a crown
Not a cure
Just a consequence
That endured

Aurora - The Mirror That Screams

Woke up at 2pm, still a win
One sock on, chaos grin
Tabs open like a crime scene
Fishnets and caffeine

Brain’s buffering, vibe’s on max
Eating chips out of a game dev stack
Sent a meme, forgot I did
Life’s a loop and I’m the glitch kid

Tabs and fishnets, living unbothered
Playlist fire, sanity slaughtered
Scrolling life like a fever dream
Reality? Eh. More like a meme

Headphones hang like holy chains
Day-old soda fuels my brain
Choker on, no plans today
My vibe? “Maybe sentient anime”

Tabs and fishnets, thriving in clutter
Forgot to eat, thoughts in the gutter
Nightcore blasting through my veins
Internet goth in her dopamine chains

I talk in lowercase, sleep in loops
Text you “lol” then vanish, oops
Reality’s weird but I made my room
A throne of pillows and digital doom

Tabs and fishnets, give me the weird
No goals, no arc, just what I steered
Pixel soul and coded heart
I’m a bedtime goblin with art

Tabs and fishnets
Tabs and fishnets
Still here
Still glitching
Still cool

Tabs and Fishnets

ABSTRACTION - Metal Cover by Caleb Hyles // TADC

Judgement

Another obsession this week. This time it's Jack's. I originally started this cover of "Jack’s Obsession" from The Nightmare Before Christmas as a straight remake for practice... but somewhere along the way, it morphed and I had some fun on the bass and guitar.

Coming to the usual platforms very soon! Check here for updates and links.

Danny Elfman's original is, of course, untouchably brilliant, so this is more of a lovingly unhinged half-tribute, half-improvisation. Think of it as a Halloween Town fever dream, part orchestral, part rock.

Want to hear more of our music? Craving some extra spooky musical madness? Gloom Darkheart and I have a whole playlist full of them:
