Deluge

single pillow
double bed
faded light bulb
by the crib

open window
one thing is clear
mother will find
a way out of here

another day
another year
no more time
for trepidation and fear

no it won’t end this way
no it won’t end yet

a message left
upon the wall,
of the apartment,
to ‘Just keep peddlin’ on’

——CHORUS——

lucky you'll be revelin'
and celebratin'
in what you made

so paint the mirage
with everything
you ever dreamed

lucky that, in the canvas
are new friends,
cause there’s no turning
back again

so paint the mirage
the colours will
find their way
—

boarding pass
spelling out 
‘one way’
‘5am departure in
'economy’

teardrops falling 
by your side
leaving things
you love and hate
behind

so open your eyes
to the clouds
and the ocean

___________
[CHORUS]
___________

can you feel that?
can you feel that?
can you feel the colours
find their way?

can you feel that?
can you feel that?
can you feel the colours
find their way?

all along, all along
the colours were there
all along

all along, all along
the colours were there
all along

Paint The Mirage

Composed to be played live with a looping pedal. Don't worry, you're supposed to be bored - It's ambient! Have it in the background while you do something else. 

An instrumental featuring my bothers 7 String Ormsby guitar, also the first official release of a track using his recently accumulated recording software plugins (GetGood Drums, BIAS FX and various FabFilter packages). 

I owe this debut to him!

We've Been Brothers A Long Time

Another song for the Nenevert looping set. A somewhat apocalyptic tune along the lines of Tame Impala with a bit more grunt. Bon Appetit.

Suck the pulp, then tooth decay
The tables turned, moral delay
Oh we're dying
To see whats on the menu for mid-day

Driven to the ground
Dirt in the snout
Find out
Just what it takes to grow down there

Find It over

When God gives you lemons
Throw out the seed, patent the gene
We'll bastardize this act of nature

Driven to the ground,
You'll be so sure, money whore
The secret resource for your secret sauce

Find it over

(Wicked Sick GR-55 Guitar Synth Solo)

Find it over

Find It Over

It’s about a snake. Enjoy.

Special thanks to Joseph Heenan for the artwork commission. Really gives the song some fitting visual context. Also to my brother Kyle Trevenen for his invaluable mixing and mastering guidance.

LYRICS

Give in
You must have risked it
When you got that biscuit

They say within those troubled days,
You’ve got to learn to ride the waves,
But sometimes much easier, to sink down at the bottom,
Waiting for that something, I forget

Oh, what's that? At the bottom of your back!
Paint the ancient spiral, say goodbye to normal life now
Never, ever, never to return

Laser light array,
Seen a little bit too much today.
It must have been waiting from the start
Guaranteed to blow brain into one hundred thousand parts given time
Be careful not to lose your mind,
when the cosmic snake goes up your spine

Across the waters, distant land, up into space, through desert sand
Many a man has given his life up to the fate of great adventure,
and many more will crack, searching within

I told them I was crazy
They didn’t believe me
(They didn’t believe me)

Nenevert
