Your soul is cold and crippling to this world
And you'd never know
You will never know
Take your time feel the innocence of life
and you barely know 
You just don't know

Karen, I know it's you (2x)

All you lies and you discrete holds me down
like a can a dusty can
Cancer in your heart is true
it's burning though 
It's hurling though

Karen, I know it's you
It's you

A Shade of Blue - Legacy Demo Version

PS Perkins: Guitars, bass, lyre, vocals
Ron Thomas: Autoharps, Drums

Production notes:
---------------------------------------------
Very early on we wanted to use autoharps on this song to create a sort of swirling backdrop, reminiscent of the harps in Indian/Bollywood soundtrack songs of the seventies.

Right away there were challenges because the song is in B flat and is not wholly diatonic to begin with, utilizing a chord built on the augmented lydian scale in the choruses. So rather than transpose the song to a more amenable key (since the chromatic bits weren't going to work no matter what key we used) we instead re-tuned the autoharp. Moving through the strings one by one we tuned them either up or down a half step where applicable to bring them into key. Where the augmented chord hit in the choruses, we excluded those notes so that the autoharp was filling the diatonic parts of the chords and omitting the accidentals. It took us several tries to get it right. In the end we arrived at a chord progression that could be strummed on the autoharp and the modified chords could be played with existing dampers.

We also tuned the lyre so that the top half of the strings included the chromatic augmented notes while the lower register of the lyre was tuned using the diatonic, so the lyre could play the melody all the way through both parts of the song.

The inspiration for this song was essentially fourfold:
--------------------------------------------------------
First, H.P. Lovecraft's terrifying necromancer Joseph Curwen (from "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward") who masked his true identity in order to thwart suspicion from his fellow townsfolk. He has many secrets lurking in his underground catacombs where he performs acts of necromancy most foul, extracting the "salts" of the dead in order to raise them at will and learn the secrets of ancient eldritch deities.

Second, a poem by Rudyard Kipling titled "En-Dor" which was a warning against the rise of spiritualism and the cost of communion with the dead in the early 20th century.

Third, the biblical Saul who traveled in disguise to visit a witch at the city of Endor in order to summon Samuel from the dead and garner advice on defeating the Philistines, but who only prophesies doom for Saul. Saul dies later the next day in the battle of Gilboa.

Lastly, the story of Odysseus communing with the underworld where he enlists the help of Tiresias to have a chat with the dead and secure for himself a safe journey home.

They all seek communion with the dead for one purpose: to gain knowledge which only those who have crossed over between realms might possess. 

Lyrics:
-------------------------------------
A mask may reveal what it’s meant to conceal
From those who are standing beside us
Armor of pride, so we learn to abide
By the monsters which hide deep inside us
The monsters which lurk deep inside us
Oh, how they scratch and they bite us
The monsters which lurk deep inside us

Only to know what the professor knows

Eating black bread, wearing clothes of the dead
The soil soaked in honey around us
For fear if we failed, leave the ogre unveiled
And it’s back in the grave where they found us
Back in the grave where they found us
Freed from the ties which had bound us
Back in the grave where they found us

Only to know what the professor knows

In the catacomb vaults, we extracted the salts
From cadavers to lengthen our youth
Chanting the names at the edge of the flames
And a mirror to show us the truth
A mirror which speaks only truth
See how it seeks not to soothe
A mirror which speaks only truth

Only to know what the professor knows

In the underworld maze, in the night of no days
Concocting the plan we’re devising
Much to endure on the road to En-Dor
And to snatch from Elohim arising
To snatch from Elohim arising
Snatch from Elohim arising
Snatch from Elohim arising
Snatch from Elohim arising
Snatch from Elohim arising

Lyrics 

Can’t shake the feeling 

I made my way home 
To my television 
Tried to sell my soul
But didn’t have permission

No one knows 
Im the second coming 
I’ve failed on my own 
But I’ve had the calling

Live your life in reverse
And you feel your cursed

Can’t shake the feeling 
Can’t shake the feeling 

Your demons unearthed
Hiding in the masses 
I’m shouting up first 
Sat on the second class list

Life Live in reverse
And your feel your cursed 

Can’t shake the feeling
Can’t shake the feeling 


Live your life in reverse 
Feel like your cursed 

Can’t shake the feeling
Can’t shake the feeling

V3- 
Your moneys no good 
Can’t buy your way out 
But if you act like you should 
Please Whisper don’t shout 

Live your life in reverse 
Feel like your cursed 

Cos They seek to destroy 
Your world is their toy
You stand in line 
And you nod in time 
The worlds at your feet
But it feels like a defeat 

Bridge)
Can’t take this 
It’s mayhem 
Time to take your  
Medicine 

Some Angels 
Some demons 
Deal your fate in an instant 

Can’t shake the feeling  
can’t shake the feeling 
Can’t shake the feeling

Life Live in reverse
Cant find the meaning 
Feels like you’re cursed
Can’t shake the feeling x3

Cant shake the feeling

LYRIC
Old age has found me
Though I tried to hide
Wrapped thin arms around me
Whispered in my ear
It’s getting cold
Think we’d best go inside
And find comfort
In our own company
Put a kettle on for tea

And sit down by the fire
And know no more of desire
As twilight settles low
To be in the fire’s glow
And to have our memories show
They are all we need to know in our old…

…age has assured us
All will be just fine
Youth had allured us
With its rosy shine but now we’re pale
My spotted hands reach for yours
And yours for mine
All is fine

Glad you are with me
As we reach the stage
Where we should act our old age
