Y2K x Honest - Funeral

When I wake up from this dream
I'll look in your eyes to see what I was missing

But for now, when I get out of my room
I'll avert my eyes when I see you

Passing by me on the street
Don't take it to heart
We're all parts of a machine
Each of us playing a part

When I finally can see
The mess that is my heart
For what it is, I won't lie, 
In time I know that each of us will die

Bury my face in magazines
I put on my bedstand so I'll never have to leave

It's so hard to be what you mean
But I've learned to live without things I think I need

So I guess that I don't
Really need those things
Yeah, I think so much that my mind's a crutch
So I think when I want to lean

And alleviate 
The pain from standing
On my own two feet when my knees are weak

Still it doesn't mean a thing

Meaningless

Did that thing, then I said nuh uh
Recorded late 2012
Mickey uploaded just before he left us

Girlfraaand Bounce

Mickey uploaded before he left us - late 2012

Young Boy

Mickey uploaded before he left us - - recorded late 2012.

Lie To Survive

Very Rough Mix (written by Mickey - doesn't sound like such a rough mix to me). The last known song that he wrote, sung, recorded - December 2012.

Dropout

One of the very first songs that Mickey wrote and produce - - the only other ones that I can think of from the very beginning are "What Do I Know; I'm Just a Boy",  "Martians stole my brains" and "What Do You Want Me Here For" - Unfortunately, I can find copies of either of these just now - - still hunting through old back-ups.  He was about 12 when he wrote and produced this with The Junkers.  Stay with it to the end to hear some great guitar offered up by Kerem.

Dime Song

Written and produced by Mickey around 2007.  As in many of his songs, he is playing all of the guitar tracks and all of the voice tracks are his.

Fools

Mickey Ephrath and The Elevators - Written, Recorded and Sung with Palmer Foley circa 2007. 

Listen to me Sing

Mickey Ephrath - Circa 2008 - he wrote, sang, played instrumental tracks, recorded and mixed.

"Have you ever felt like at one time, that you have more thoughts running through your mind than everyone else combined?"

Habits

This song is beautiful - - Mickey's Friend, Tom Dorsey, wrote: "Mickey spent so long on this song, it was honestly the hardest I've ever seen him work on one particular song. I remember it took him an entire winter, I believe the one between 2008 and 2009"

Mickey had a 3rd band circa 2008/2009 - called Power Outage Baby. Band members included Mickey, Tom Dorsey, Michael March, Chris Kydd and Clay Johnson. This is one of their songs.

A Part Of You

A friend of Mickey's just sent me a copy of a CD that Mickey had given him in September of 2009. To quote his friend, "This CD contains some of his softer music which is incredibly beautiful".  

I had not heard this song before receiving this CD. I'm guessing Mickey produced this one during the summer of 2009, just before he left for college at Evergreen.

Gone Before the Sun Had a Chance to Shine

Shape of Things to Come

Mickey had a 3rd band circa 2008/2009 - called Power Outage Baby. Band members included Mickey, Tom Dorsey, Michael March, Chris Kydd and Clay Johnson. This is one of their songs.

Linen Of The Whole

Mickey (God-like) Leor (My Light) Ephrath - Born 3/28/91 - Died 1/7/2013 - In his short life, he read a lot of books, wrote a lot of poetry and music, produced a lot of great songs, made a lot of people happy, made some mad as hell, broke more than a few hearts, had a lot of friends, lost more than a few, loved deeply, lived fully, and always took the path that he chose.  He will be missed!  But, may his creativity and music live on.  

Knowing Mickey's feelings and thoughts about God, rather than traditional liturgy, our Rabbi read the following poem, written by Chaim Nachman Bialik, on the 7th and last day of Shiva with the family at his graveside. The poem was originally written in Hebrew.

After My Death by Chaim Nachman Bialik  

After My Death
Say this when you mourn for me:

There was a man - and look, he is no more.
He died before his time.
The music of his life suddenly stopped.
A pity! There was another song in him.
Now, it is lost.
Forever.

A great pity! 
He had a guitar,
a living, speaking soul
to which he uttered the secrets of his heart,
making all its strings vibrate,
save one he kept inviolate.
Back and forth his supple fingers danced,
one string alone remained entranced
still unheard.

A pity!
All its life that string quivered,
silently shook,
yearned for its song, its mate,
as a heart saddens before its fate.
Despite delay, it waited.
Mutely beseeching its saviour lover
who lingered, loitered, and did not come.

Great is the pain!
There was a man - and look, he is no more.
The music of his life suddenly stopped.
There was another song in him.
Now it is lost.
Forever.
