Defined 

Preacher man says he knows the way
All I have to do is kneel and pray
He can show me the streets of gold

And now the boys are home
In the dark and all alone
Learning the grace of god on their knees

And now you're pissed with me
Instead of the pedo priest
That kind of thinking I don't understand

And all you got left to say 
Is that he works in mysterious ways
The last refuge of a broken mind

The last refuge


Yes the world is so defined. 
Gotta break the dogma down one brick at time
Yes the world is so defined
Gotta break the dogma down what's taking so much time

Leader man is in the way
Wants me to hear what he has to say
A vote for him is a vote for me

Meanwhile behind the scenes 
Big men with bigger dreams
And lots of cash to grease the wheels

And now the waters brown 
In some mid Michigan town
Better hope you never need to drink

Justice has run amok
If your the vic you're outta luck
Better learn to take it on the chin

Justice has run amok
If your the vic you're outta luck
Better learn to take it on the chin

Better learn to take it on

Yes the world is so defined. 
Gotta break the dogma down one brick at time
Yes the world is so defined
Gotta break the dogma down what's taking so much time


Notes:  Hi everyone,  think I am going to steal the line from my friends, November Sound, and say if you are reading this...I appreciate you.  This track has been in development for a while and another learning experience.  

This song is meant to rail against the systems that claim moral superiority and victimize their followers. Events as they are happening in our times and the frustration with the silent acceptance of this behavior. 

How defined these systems of control are and how we are born into blindly accepting these chains.  Then we spend our lives trying to figure out why happiness is so hard to find.   

Some major milestones on the engineering side and while I could rattle on about this... lets just say that the microphone recorded tracks out number the DI 5 to 1.  Custom processing chains, coupled with the best performances I could muster on the bottom shelf gear. 

Perfect...certainly not... but most definitely Tainted Icarus,  I hope you enjoy it and always my brothers and sisters.. peace and love! 
Tainted Icarus.

Rabbit Hole

Like a lot of us these days, I have some extra hours on my hands. While looking to amuse myself at this most unamusing time, I made this. I hope it cheers you, too, and provides a few minutes pleasure. That is all it is for.

This music is also my version of whistling past the graveyard. One of many versions.

Please stay healthy. And let us be strong, and pick each other up when one of us is down.
