Your mind's labyrinths.
Light that shines beyond your eyes.
The Universe blinks.

Lyrics:

I go to a movie and all I see is you
I move to an island cause all I want is you

The lonely hours keep bringing me back to you
I'll keep bringing you flowers cause the colors remind me of you

I see crystal waters that only wave to you
A new sensation how can this be true?

The lonely hours keep bringing me back to you
I'll keep bringing you flowers cause the colors remind me of you

I'll keep, I'll keep holding, holding you near.....

The Lonely Hours

Wine is TRUTH

after 3 AM I hear your voice
tortured as I remember 
recognize your pain
glowing flames of fiery ember
haunting memory of wanting
you despite the cost
tip the golden chalice
till all inhibitions lost
leave nothing but skin
over your bones while
whispering in softest
under tone

always loved you baby
I hang on every word
 amplified and allowed
every distant darkened cloud
in your mind of paranoia
blue and defined
See myself inside 
your harsh lines
if I hadn't fucked it up
could I have made you mine
if I hadn't fucked it up
could I have made you 
mine

doesn't seem like I can
hold a man
set myself up to be damned
by those who should
cherish me the most
yet treat me like I'm toast
attract me just to boast
they took me down
and watched me fall into
a wretched fog of wasted time
scold myself for acting in a haste
when the truth is
I was just afraid
 you'd take me out as well
you'd take me down, as well

couldn't get the words out
couldn't bare to trust
anyone new again...
yet here I  am weeks
 on down the line
syncing with your mind
like you'd give me time 
of day if I reached 
out to you again

yes, you....yes you....

A Inconstância Do Desejo Aceso

POP | SPACEROCK | AMBIENT | EXPERIMENTAL

the PERSON, the SOUND : Michael Ash Sharbaugh is a composer of music and poetry, a lead vocalist and synthesist who hails from Philadelphia, PA. Since 1985, Michael has released hundreds of recordings, but known primarily for his atmospheric pop ("Give Yourself Completely"), jarring spacerock ("Dying in the Killing Jar"), and ambient-experimental works ("Infrastructure," "point65c," "Three Aimless Clouds").

Michael's sound is a synergy of 'darkwave-y' electronica and 'trip-hop-y' psychedelia: bass-laden rhythms form the gravity for his own breathy vocals and his soundscapes of dizzying synths and 'found sounds.' His ambient and experimental musics are soothing, and somewhat 'alien' to the ear: they float and shimmer, meander, and -- more often than not -- haunt.
