Prelude

"Explain it to Me" was updated since its release last month. It will be re-released on the "Hollow Queen" album.

Explain It to Me

"Oh, Rotten One"

I am what you want
And I can break your heart
Hate me, and hope I'm wrong
Kill me, Oh Rotten One


Taste this, taste my words
I hope to make you burn
So happy with your lies
it helps to shut out the light

Oh, Rotten One
You are the One

I am what you're not
and I have 2 in 1
Half of me is wrong
Because I am in love

Time is ticking now
My mind is breaking down
Hope is not a lie
But you always shut out the light

Oh, Rotten One
You are the One

Oh, Rotten One

"With a Switch"

One, two, three
You outta be
A thing that needs me
Yea yea yea yea

God help me
I'll never need
to be the king,
it's better to bow out

Don't tell me
I need to leave
Better off, as you know 
that I'm not sick

And I can see
that I can't be
Finding that Eve
Made herself a wish

I can't fly
for what it is
takes my light 
With a switch

Four, five, six
I've got a list 
of the ways in which
I'm smiling without you

Take a picture
You know it's gonna hurt
when you find that you're
capturing your shame

Don't blame me
You know I gotta need
A thing that leaves me
with a thought in my head

Alter-ego : Revised

With a Switch

This is the introduction to the original album, recorded in 2013. It's still one of my favorite of my own songs, and certainly has the most personal significance.

Queen of Hearts

Nothing Waves

This is my earliest complete song, it dates 2005. It was my inspiration for the album, "Queen of Hearts", and remains one of my most important works. Probably, I wouldn't be an active musician, if it weren't for the subject matter of this song. Experience yields inspiration, the sort which can only be found with a genuine heart.

Lovely Little Dream, You Are

"Make Her"

Into a bliss, I thought this is
all I can live when hope is wrong
What is a glimpse broken through this
to all of these perfect things I want
To please and lie, I've gotta try
I know you'd die if I got in
Can I make her all I want

Caught in a will, I thought I'd kill
the need is there, no not it taunts
I am until, I am to fill
What can't I see that leaves me lost
Something is blind, this can't be right
A secret is kept to find the place it haunts
Can I make her all I want

All I want
You would haunt

Make Her

And I'm finally

Yea I'm finally free

You can't find me

Cause I took the lead

And I'm finding

Yea I'm finding dreams

They remind me

Of what I need


All the priceless

About what I meant

burning flowers

not wilting in the wrath

But the worthless

All that I condemn

Finds the fire

Just blackens it to Shit


And so i tell a tale to myself


All these boring words

They make me 

feel like I don't work

And I am useless

I'll not be your tool

Try and use me

With petty bullshit rules

Still I'm playing

what I learned from you

And you will burn me

As though I were the fool

I Tell a Tale to Myself

Everyone I know is wrong

So, I guess, I'll sing a song

Make a wish upon a star

How it helps to know what you are

Here I am! The one to blame

Fighting faster through the flames

Tell me, have I found the way?

A holy rain came yesterday


And, we'll never know

Who's bringing it down

A brave man, to be sure

Speaking forbidden words

Can I get a new life?

Ours is already right

Wishing our future bright

Wishing you would just die


And I can't believe, it's in my head

And I can't believe, the dream is dead

And I need to sleep with someone else

This one is a thief, He loves himself

I just want this to be, forever

About only me, and he should burn

I have a lock and key, cause it's not fair

I can leave him to scream, and I don't care


Who took my life?

Why have I been doomed to die?

Wait a while, I think I know

Everyone is one that I can't know

All my friends are fast asleep

Dreaming that I still believe

Nevermind when I can prove

That I'm always looking right through


And we'll never know

What makes us a lie

I still believe that I'm real

And in all that I feel

Can I get a new life?

Mine is turning alright

Knowing my future's bright

Now it's your turn to die

I can't seem to find a way to live but I can not die
Everything I want is there but I don't know how to lie
All the priceless horded away, monsters keeping an eye
on the one that I want more than anything, and I'm left here to cry

tell the witch we'll burn it for coveting the trove that we keep
all the men are guarding the holy princess, and hoping to reap
follow one another, in formation, shunning the creep
he can never break in, kill him now, look, he's taking a leap

I'll never be, the one you can make to be
everything that you need, breaking me
every time, i look through the window for
something that's mine, taken and locked away
i wish you would die, but what are you anyway?
Hello, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
I am the source of your dreams
your screaming, nevermind, live your lies!
