lyrics:

Berry lemonade on a summers day
Parade around the town in your chains like a slave
Oh you think you are brave
You're not
You're a disgrace
Get away from

Pass her down
Pass her on down
Pass her all around until the wheels fall off
I fell off
I think my wheels fell off
Fell off

Lyrics:

I can show you were the crow lives now
Black feathers and king like crown
Kiss that ring when your taking the bow
Don't shake
They take flesh by the pound
Don't mistake
Love for a noun
Cause it means heartbreak
When the ups are down
heartbreak
When the ups are down
Bitch I'm over and Out
Over and Out 
I got goons in the back a the Ford
Goons and they back at the fort
Did I mention we knock and we chop
Mmm
Socks and we fill m with rocks
We bored
Yeah
Films about knocking the clocks
Out a cops on the road
Show
Flock and they raise me on shoulders
Like never Before
Woah oh woah
Yeah
Don't rag on the man with the scorn
Body bags under the porch
He don't whip in he rip off the Porsche at the store
He don't trip and he quit every time he gets bored
Every time I get
Yeah
Wanna be on the road
Wanna be on the 
I don't wanna be here
I wanna be on the road
I wanna be away
I wanna be on tour
I need everyone's attention but I also wanna be alone
We got a long night
And a long drive
I got something we can light
Make the honey that is roasting in the pipe
That's tight
10 roach
Break down
Frank Stein
Bee hives make the money that's right
What a life
Break out the wine
I'm fake your fake
That's wild
Let's walk and talk some shit for a while

Modes About Me - cookies and cream - G major - 130 bpm

Music/lyrics: Composed, written and performed by Mark David McClellan

Lyrics:

Everybody you love
Gets cancer and dies 
Everybody you love
Gets cancer and dies
I know a guy
Had a family and wife
Everything was fine
He got cancer and he died
I had a cat
Like cookies and cream
Eaten from the inside 
Now he's underneath a tree
I still can't walk
Past the cemetery
They say
We've been waiting... patiently
Grandma
We had dinner every week
You got cancer and you died
Now My family doesn't speak anymore

cookies and cream

Modes About Me - Shows - E b minor - 130 bpm

Music/lyrics: Composed, written and performed by Mark David McClellan

Lyrics:

Your taint smells like split pea soup
I can smell that shit from across the room man
Did I mention that you look like snoop
If snoop had one or two chromosomes loose
With a face only a mother can love
She said she only loves me 
Bitch that's what's up
Because I practice my skill without telling anybody
And I never pay the bill because I don't have the money

Modes About Me - Eighteen - F minor - 158 bpm

Music/lyrics: Composed, written and performed by Mark David McClellan

Lyrics:

Give me the salt
The circle of blood won't protect us
From what's to come
Rising up 
From herbs and dust
Remember the good times
Remember the dove
Headless and muddy
And covered in blood
This coming Sunday
Would you like to catch up
No talk just lust
Don't look 
what's Following us
Mumbles from the back of the city bus
Yeah
Where are they coming from
Fuck
Help me get rid of them
Help me get rid of them

Modes About Me and Temp Friend Agency - End Of The World

Song 1

End Of The World

165BPM

CMAJOR

Lyrics

I
I was unyielding
Then I was defeated when I'm in the building
Guns to the ceiling
I want a new meaning
But what's a new meaning
With a meaningless reason
Zombie need blood from the blood bank
Zombie need flesh from the heart break
Me myself and you need a loot crate
You your self and I need a new way

So this is the end of the world
Gotta zombie eating my flesh 
Hope I die of blood loss
So I don’t eat my dog
I really think I’m gunna hurl 
Because of naughty deeds
Done by those who share the same heartbeats
Much like you and me 

Acid rain
Is falling down
Not that it matters much cause
Every part of town
Is infected by parasitic minds
They manipulate and paralyze 
Until you can’t get up 
Where is the love

So this is the end of the world
Gotta zombie eating my flesh 
Hope I die of blood loss
So I don’t eat my dog
I really think I’m gunna hurl 
Because of naughty deeds
Done by those who share the same heartbeats
Much like you and me 

Raise your hands up
If you could be a better
You could be a better you
Raise your hands up 
If you like to live your life 
With a positive attitude 
Raise your hands up
If you could be a better
You could be a better you
Raise your hands up 
I like to live my life with a negative attitude

I woke up from a terrible dream
I woke up and there was nothing to be
I woke up in a puddle of piss
With nothing but a list of all the people I miss

But you know it
That we won’t change 
Cause we never do 
Til it’s too late
when I die 
Of old age
Live the same lie 
Live the same lie
Replay

So this is the end of the world
Gotta zombie eating my flesh 
Hope I die of blood loss
So I don’t eat my dog
I really think I’m gunna hurl 
Because of naughty deeds
Done by those who share the same heartbeats
Much like you and me

Modes About Me and Temp Friend Agency - Poseidon

Song 2

Poseidon

115BPM

DMAJOR

Lyrics

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

Consequence is tragedy
Hold my hand
The seven seas
Devour me
Heavens peak
Higher than the underneath
Do you want my soul to keep
The waters deep don't leave the beach
Don't leave the beach
Running from the rising greif 
It's starting to take hold of me 
Like you it moves so silently
But silence is my everything
It's better than expecting death
When silence is your everything
Everything is in your head
No wonder why there's nothing left
No wonder why there's nothing left
Take my hand and hold your breath
I'm nothing but a beating chest
Suffering
Suffering the consequence

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

Blackened clouds
Consequence for pretentious mouth
Honestly did you think that one good deed, 
Would save your soul? 
This is Godspeed
Rock the ship back and forth
I don’t wanna die anymore
It’s funny when you’re faced with life and death
Situations how quickly you pick up your head

Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up 
Gotta pick up
Gotta pick up 
Your head

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

We were stuck by the lighthouse
Waiting for the rogue waves to come
Crashing down on us
Wash me away 
Oh the currents got a hold on me
Wash me away 
Oh Poseidons’ got a hit on my head

Modes About Me and Temp Friend Agency - Stargazer

Song 3

Stargazer

168BPM

BMAJOR

Lyrics

Star light 
Wrote a song for you
star bright 
Was out of tune
Long night
No attitude
Just me n some weed
Underneath the blood moon
From the view at my kitchen sink
been trying but trying seems to only sink the ship
Oh I forget how to swim
The waters pretty cold but I needa go in

Stargazer 
You point at the skyline 
They say “You want it? You got it.”
But you found out they lied
Man on the moon (I’m taking off)
I’ll see you soon
I don’t belong here

So
Where do I go? 
I don’t do well on my own
New York City was very pretty 
But I’m broke and cardboard just ain’t warm like home 

Stargazer 
You point at the skyline 
They say “You want it? You got it.”
But you found out they lied
Man on the moon (I’m taking off)
I’ll see you soon
I don’t belong here

You make me angry
No matter what I do
I can never fill the craving
I'm lazy
And I can't fucking take it
Every thing I try I seem to lose my concentration

Follow the draft on a freezing cold night 
Search for the second star to the right

Twinkle little star
(Yeah)
You make me angry
No matter what I do
I can never fill the craving
I'm lazy
And I can't fucking take it
Every thing I try I seem to lose my concentration

Stargazer 
You point at the skyline 
They say “You want it? You got it.”
But you found out they lied
Man on the moon (I’m taking off)
I’ll see you soon
I don’t belong here

Modes About Me and Temp Friend Agency - Slingshot

Song 4

Slingshot

170BPM

AMAJOR

Lyrics

I've been looking from above on pride rock
I got king in my blood but it's locked up
Mud in the vain like Layne
And Ima go down in the same way 
I pray that I never gotta prey 
Cause when I gotta prey
It comes a little late
I stress from the same shit daily
Thick headed 
And I Find out the hard way
And I pray that I never gotta prey 
Cause when I gotta prey
It comes a little late

Two birds one stone 
Is lousy expression 
If you want my opinion 
I’ll give you a confession 
I don’t think a bird deserves 
To be hurt mercilessly 
Mark and I will fuck your shit up
Happily 

David and Goliath
Pulling out a slingshot
Wouldn’t be such a bad idea 
If only you were smaller 
I could see your point 
But you’re fighting in the wrong
And you’re leaving me no choice
No choice
(You’re leaving me no choice)

Two birds one stone 
Is lousy expression 
If you want my opinion 
I’ll give you a confession 
I don’t think a bird deserves 
To be hurt mercilessly 
Mark and I will fuck your shit up
Happily 

What is happiness without a little love?
Slingshot

I need a nap
Cause I'm feeling my old age
I'm feelin my own way 
I need another
Cause I'm feeling sore
If I take another
Will I be
Trapped in my ways
I need a nap
Cause I'm feeling my old age
I'm feelin my own way 
I need another
Cause I'm feeling sore
If I take another
Will I be no more

Two birds one stone 
Is lousy expression 
If you want my opinion 
I’ll give you a confession 
I don’t think a bird deserves 
To be hurt mercilessly 
Mark and I will fuck your shit up
Happily

Modes About Me and Temp Friend Agency - Daffodil

Song 5

Daffodil

162BPM

GMAJOR

Lyrics

Let me tell ya bout the birds and the bees
Bird saw bee and she wanted to eat
Down down with the tip a the beak
Now turn around 
Cause I'm tryna spend time wit the peach
Take me too the honey
Meet me by the tree near the deer and the bunny
Have a beer in the shade cause it's sunny
And maybe we can live a life that isn't about running
At least I'm trying something 

You were a dancing daffodil
And I was a bird migrating south of the earth
I think I might’ve found my next meal
Why settle for worms?
When you make sense of my virgin birth

Keen eye for a special somethin
Kite high we don’t fight over nothin
Generations of the same old things
Recycle the past in our own names 
In our own names 

You were a dancing daffodil
And I was a bird migrating south of the earth
I think I might’ve found my next meal
Why settle for worms?
When you make sense of my virgin birth

Rewind
Inside out
I feel everything at once

You don't gotta a lie to get a peak behind the curtain
I gets high sometimes it's a burden
Then I stung her three times 
That's a Birdy
You don't gotta a lie to get a peak behind the curtain

You were a dancing daffodil

You were a dancing daffodil
And I was a bird migrating south of the earth
I think I might’ve found my next meal
Why settle for worms?
When you make sense of my virgin birth

So I
I will go on
With you deep in the pit of my stomach 
And I will cherish you
And think of you more than I wanted to
My daffodil

Lyrics:
Used to be nothing
Now I 'am me
Please don't push my buttons
Cause I've been running from the things
That make this real 
And I have had enough
Cause I've been trying 
Not to feel
The consequence of 
Always wanting more of this
And I've been chillin all day
Let them pave the way
So I might as well wait 
Two feet in the grave
Four blunts to the face
Six shots and I'm awake

When you read this
I might be gone
I'm feeling how you feel
When enough is enough 
Fear, pain, rage 
And no love
I miss the good old days 
With the sex and the drugs
I'd like to be rich
I could have some money 
Put some gold on my wrist
I got a bullet that will 
Make me a myth
But not before
I play your screams like a riff

Lyrics:
stop motion seems like it's haunted
seems right but feels like it's daunting 
vacations not what I wanted
I don't need to get away
the distance is dawning 
this moment is raw yet two sided
I'm blue but a abiding
because hiding inside is so
very exciting

arise
seven more days till the sky
reddens and covers the light
don't cover your eyes
or sto in the cupboard for they know you hide now
the harder it is the longer you bide time
holding the line
thing in the ruins with muscular vines
twining testicular grapes up the spine
of those who would try
to save us from evil when evils a
I said evils alive
from evil when evils a
I said evils alive

across the ocean on a boat

right into your eye

trucks
cheap beer

Lyrics:
there's a mirror
at the end of the earth
if you look long enough
you can see the truth
there's a lesson
at the end of it all
in a message in a bottle
at the bottom of the waterfall
get it
go get it
good riddance
just kidding 
just go
god as my witness
you better get it
even though I bet my soul
that you end up missing

and it's great to be alive
live another day
take another life
I'm fading out of patience 
and the bandwidth I've been running
has been making me feel latency
change my ways bitch that's not fun
change my ways bitch I wanna die young
but I can't die young
If I don't die soon
cause I'm bout to be 30 
and they call me old dude
call me old dude cause my skin is grey
abuse this body can take
now never will I ever have to lay awake
thinkin bout the things I can never change

Lyrics:
there's whispers from outside the tent
to vent
is all I have left
weapons on weapons on deck
these people aren't real
just a means to the end
instant regret
thinking descends into doing 
and doing is what I resent
they know my secret
now it dies with them

so fat over there like a pear
with a face so ugly and I bet you don't care
bout the way that they stare 
when you come into town
and your underwear are brown 
kinda wish you were dead
if you ever get married then
I hope that she dies
when you cry 
cause your face turns red
at the funeral they said
that you were sleeping with your dad
and the baby they had
came out and it was black
grabbed his chest and had a little heart attack
your mom dies in side at the sight of that
then you got home and you found out
that your cat ran away
the cancer decided 
to make its way to the brain

It Dies With Them

YOU NAME IT! (Cover)

Modes About Me is a genre-defying trio from Niagara Falls, New York, known for blending alternative rock, pop, hip hop, and acoustic elements into a cohesive, emotionally charged sound.

The project began as a solo creative outlet for Mark, who started writing and producing music that didn’t fit neatly into one category. What started as a personal side project soon grew into something bigger when he recruited his childhood friends, Dave and Miller, both long-time musicians who shared his passion for experimentation and emotional honesty.

Together, the trio shaped a sound that thrives on contrast — heavy yet melodic, structured yet fluid, vulnerable yet powerful. Their music draws inspiration from the energy of Niagara Falls and the emotions of modern life, exploring themes of self-discovery, mental health, love, and resilience.

Modes About Me’s songs shift naturally between genres — from guitar-driven rock and soulful acoustic moments to rhythm-infused hip hop textures — while always staying true to their core identity. With every release, the band continues to push the boundaries of what alternative music can be, carving a distinct sound that’s deeply human and refreshingly original.
