Homestuck Filk. A rough, sort of weird Aradia fansong I had to get out of my head. Made with my voice. A lot of my voice.

~~
LYRICS
~~~

I found a few spare milliseconds I'm prepared to waste
I've been leaving copies of myself across paradox space

I've been a body with no soul, and a soul in metal, cold.
Please trust in what I tell you. Don't you know that I am made of time?

What a chorus line of corpses we've collected
At least we're good at one thing I suppose
It's nice to feel excited once again
Let's throw the loveliest of human funerals

I used to feel I stood for something, then I just felt fine
I've fallen prey to feeling some emotions that weren't mine

I was never really gone at all, but you believed I was
So, I'm sorry that I left but I've returned to help our cause

In our story I do not narrate, I just fill the margins
With bubbles, circles shapes where we may place our fallen friends

Has it been years or days or has it been a breath?
I may be Maid of Time but I am also Maid of death

Made of Death

Homestuck filk. An Eridan Ampora fansong I recorded with a sore throat and a headache, don't ask me why...but I kind of like the result.

LYRICS
~~

I am a prince and I live in a ship and I aim my rifle and I shoot from the hip
and I have a friend I pity quite a bit
she said “grab your gun let's have some fun, share with me your perigees 
I have responsibilities, I cannot run!” 

“I do not wish the death of any living thing, 
I might be a killer but one day I shall be queen 
and put an end to  slaughter, but until then I'm keen 
on staking claim to land and sea and everyfin between.”

I played a game with eleven fools who told me not to break the rules
but when have angels ever helped me yet?
and magic isn't real and anyway it doesn't matter 
cause no matter what I conjure it could not help be me deflect

the angry death of every hopeful thought 
that I might be a lover or a fighter that I’m not 
in someones spider web or net I could be caught 
but I'm too bitter, better off alone, guess I forgot

So what? Do you want me to say sorry?
should I apologize, when you ignore me?
I didn't ask to be right or to be lonely
or to be hatched into an ugly story

I am a prince and I had a pair of princesses in two sharp squares
but then I guess I bored them both to death
And now I think my calling is to break apart and fall to pieces
better yet invent a brand new method of ascension

I'm impressed, you've managed to survive 
but rest assured we'd all be better off dead than alive 
cause when they get a-hold of us we'll all be batter fried 
and I'm surprised that nobody's considered switching sides

So here I am, respectfully and royally destroying 
any chance of getting back on your good gills
And I don't want to be hurtful but if yellows the new purple 
well then bleeding's the new breathing, don't you think I will! 

I used to wish the death of every living thing 
I might be your killer but you'd never be my queen 
so put away your laughter, pack up your hopes and dreams 
I'm done with black back-handing and red pandering, it seems

That I am just pathetic, I won't be overlooked  
I'm past the point of fishing to get back upon your hook 
I've made a manifesto, I've been bested by a crook, but never more! 
I'm planning on reclaiming what he took...

So what? do you want me to say sorry?
should I apologize, when you ignore me?
I didn't ask to be right or to be lonely
or to be hatched into an ugly story
to be hatched into an ugly story

Oh my, this pantomime is getting gory

I am a prince and I live in a ship
I am a prince and I live in a ship

LYRICS
~~

We all have got a role to play
the lioness she stalks her prey
he's bleeding in the tall grass, unaware his thrashing makes him easier to follow
But when she gets him in her claws
she'll invite him in because
her cave is not a home without him, just a hole that is lonely and hollow

And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together?
It's written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever.
And so if you are terrified, of what you hide, remember
That I'm still on your side, and that's furever...furever...

We all have got a role to play
You'll be filling yours someday
and I'll be filling mine until then we're killing time, hunting monsters in our minds
and when I see you standing strong
Pretending you don't want to play along
I'll never make you blue (or make you pay) I'll tackle you into a pile to unwind

And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together?
It's written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever.
And so if you have been denied, choke up your pride, remember
That I am on your side, and that's furever...furever...furever.

I don't have to argue, everybody knows you have issues, you lay your colors bare (in a manner of speaking) 
I'll be there when you finally decide to bare your heart, it's the part I want to share

And I don't have to argue, everybody knows you have issues, you wear them on your sleeves (so to speak) 
I'm not a thief, the only jewels that I need are your diamonds, and I find them following

The bows and arrows, in your words
The words behind your broken teeth
The broken glass that's under foot, and paw and hoof
the high and low, whatever nonsense you believe

The vast unknown laid out ahead, 
The tears and anger, good and bad
The big adventure still at hand, and paw and whiskers.
Grey, blue, red, whatever, I will understand!

And can't you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together?
We're written there in soot and ash and blood and that's furever
And so if I've been too discrete, let me repeat, remember
That I'm still on your side, and that's furever... furever...

Furever.

LYRICS

I'm gonna have a nightmare tonight
I'm gonna be my nightmare tonight

You're pretty picky, you're a clique of one
I'm right though, surely I'm not the only gun you've got loaded?
How do you keep from gloating?
You're pretty tricky, did you pick that shade
just to distract from the flash of the shining blade you've got hidden?
Deep wounds overwritten

I had so many new friends to see
so many possibilities
now I couldn't possibly feel worse
I had so many fires left to nurse

In my nightmare tonight I'll see giant leviathans
breaking the water in half with their shining skin
riding them laughing you'll be in my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I'll see beasts all stampeding 
your signia burned onto haunches still healing
and leading the pack on their backs in my nightmare tonight
You'll be in my nightmare tonight, tonight...

You're pretty ugly when you get down to it, 
combined, I've half a mind to just say screw it and break completely, 
or surrender so sweetly
I thought I'd have a chance to be my own, 
free from the tyranny of your tarnished throne. 
Now I see that kingdom belongs to me, oh no...

I had so many irons in the fire
so many brands and swords
To their backsides I had even more
So many plans on what they're for

In my nightmare tonight, there's volcanoes erupting 
A red hot web veining the land, it's disgusting
cracked mountains of madness, your hand in my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I'll see me all consumed, 
and attempting to sing disharmonious tunes with you. 
Asynchronicity, I am in misery. I am in misery! 
What has been done to me?
In my nightmare tonight (X4)

In my nightmare tonight I'll see giant leviathans
breaking the water in half with their shining skin
riding them laughing you'll be in my nightmare tonight
you'll be in my nightmare tonight

My Nightmare

An echoic, atmospheric, mood-whiplashy Kanaya Fansong.

LYRICS

look at all the many colors, so exquisitely embroidered, 
delicately and precisely sewn into a line
organized in harmony, relationships so intricate
how'd I ever come across a tapestry so fine?

but what is this?
you're burning holes in my stitching
the colours bleeding into one big mess
did you guess, I'd let this fabric fray?

I'm meddling with murderers who still deserve to pay for their insanity 
and though I'm one of them, I'm rarest of my kind, for many fell but only I arose
it's been so long, since I've seen the sun, who's to say if the colours have faded?
locked away so long, now jaded, left only to decay

I'm Mary. I feel like Mary in this dress. I'm Mary.

And virgin journeys lie before us, patient and inscrutable
There's clouds of visions, crowds of villains, mulling in withdrawal
And who would make the sacrifice, who but I is suitable?
who but the sharp dressed woman with a dull chainsaw?

I mean no insult, but I’m fed up
It’s my fault, gave you the go ahead
I've lost my way, my hopeful days
are just as dead as I am

And failure on my part to intercede has now ironically 
or cosmically, like poetry, come in between our destiny
and us but now there's nothing left and nobody to meddle with
to try and make it better, it's unsettling, to mother nothing

Mightn't I have seen this coming on the horizon?
storms of green and orange, this world of monsters taking form
but no, it is my fate to simply fade away like wind
like someone else that I could name that shouldn't have been born

Of Mary. I feel like Mary in this dress. 
I'm Mary and I've nothing to confess
but hear me, cause no-one else is left

I'm Mary...

Mary

A Sollux Captor fansong with Sollux<3Aradia Undertones and some rather silly voice acting. More lighthearted than a lot of my other stuff.

LYRICS

(Heh. This is ridiculous.)

One of me is my enemy 
the other me is a pretty cool guy 
but I haven't seen him around lately 
we don't see eye to eye

There's too much noise and too much spit 
but I think I've gotten the hang of it 
or at least I thought I did 
until you up and kicked the bucket 
(Wait! I mean... oh, f*ck it)

(Would you just get out of here? I'm trying to concentrate!)

What do you see in him? What could I say 
to convince you not to hop his way? 
I've never been too good at the ebb and sway 
much prefer the electrical current

The bees are buzzing in my mind 
that double crossing and two-timing (get it?) 
prospectors pan shifting through sand 
searching for a golden nugget

Little brains build little bridges trying to connect, but I'm already on the other side, 
you'd know a lot about that, right? I'm twice the man as he is, I'll work for you double-time

Would that be fine?

:D *SNARKY WHISTLE BREAK!* :D

(C'mon seriously?)

Of course it's fine.

(Okay, cut it out. That's it. I'm serious. No whistling.)

Primarily, I'm primary 
though some may say I'm incomplete 
and should be in a jar 
label me “DO NOT EAT”

Hope has struck me in the face 
and with his ace of clubs he shoved me 
back into the race 
cause second place still wins a trophy

I might have overheated, now remind me how I died, was it my motherboard, or just my RAM? 
Now I've found a player two in you, I'm glad I fried, I'm using every second that I can 
of Double Time, Double Time...

Double trouble bursting bubbles 
Where you go I'll follow 
Hollow-eyed and now I'm fine 
I'm only making up for lost time

Tick and tock and red and blue 
The colours and the sounds I never knew 
When they were all I saw 
Now sightless-eyed and empty-jawed

Double Time...

(...Oh geeze, what is it now? Okay, here. Give it over here. You're just making it worse.

But don't bug me anymore unless it's an emergency, okay?...)

Double Time

Some experimental, sort of jazzy, rather dark Equius Filk. I recommend headphones for this one.

LYRICS

Little boy blue, don't you play too rough with your new toy
if you touch her, she'll break and her blood is so annoying
don't you like to watch, much like a shadow lost in the shade?
Make her, you'll unmake her, but you'd rather be unmade

Oh 
It's not my place to interfere, my dear
Oh, no
Will you embrace me and erase my fear?
Woah
Wipe me out like a stain, with a grin I will hang from your string
And by your judgment of my merit I'll inherit nothing

Nothing is what I deserve
Nothing is what I have earned
If nothing is what you have chosen to give me
Then nothing is for what I yearn
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters
Nothing never breaks, busts, bends, rusts, upends or shatters.

I've never had a weakness that couldn't be destroyed
And I've never had a sinful thought that couldn't be avoided
Control your temper, control your language, or anguish in languid soul
It's what you were born to do, but you'd rather be controlled

Oh
I just presumed that you’d refuse me
Oh, no
Excuse this common fool his crudity
Woah
Break this wild horse, I will not fight, 'cause of course I would win
And I'd much rather give in and bare it all 'till I inheret nothing

Nothing is what I deserve
Nothing is what I have earned
If nothing is what you have chosen to give me
Then nothing is for what I yearn
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters
Nothing never breaks, busts, bends, rusts, upends or shatters.

I must obey the order, for I've order to restore
Each circuit sends a signal to the process in the core
and if none of this means anything than what's my anger for?
I'd rather be most anything, the dirt under your heel my king, 
a peasant or a pauper, or a knight in shining armor
what's required of your noble steed? Through your direction I am freed 
and neigh I say! I wont stand in the way of what you have decreed for-

Nothing is what I deserve
Nothing is what I have earned
If nothing is what you have chosen to give me
Then nothing is for what I yearn
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters
Nothing never breaks and nothing never shatters.

Inherit Nothing

I said a word
it got caught in my throat, and it burned
slipped off my tongue and I choked,
you were concerned for a second 
then cries echoed into the night, lesson learned

because you heard a word 
that I said, and this word how it rang 
in your head, it was loud and glorious, yes
and from where you lay on my chest 
well, you heard it best

but you held me closely while I screamed
and I watched the thinnest trails of green 
run down your neck, and drip from your chin 
thin trails of green, thin lines, on gray skin

Thin lines on gray skin
Thin lines on gray skin
where they world ends that's were we begin
my thin line, my thin line

I said a word
was it a blessing or curse?
Nobody knows the whole story, 
nobody hears me but you 
and you would have heard more if you could have I'm sure

because you heard my word, 
you still do with your hands, eyes and rest of you too
little stray on my lap, zealot, hellcat
can't forgive what I did to my dream-maker, 
(has thou forsaken her?)

And if you knew what I knew, would you object?
Are we madmen or soothsayers? Truthfully, sweet heretic?
I bit off the bit that silenced the world for you, sewed up my sin
With thin threads of black, thin lines on gray skin

Thin lines on gray skin
Thin lines on gray skin
when they world ends, that's where our work begins
my thin line, my thin line

Thin Lines

I'll leave you my bottles, babe
Ill wrap them in wool and lay 
them down in your crib
I'll miss what might have been

I'll leave you my swords and shades
I'll put all my good into one place
and ironys aftertaste
will rock to you sleep, my babe

When you watch what we made for you
when you see what we gave for you
when you read between the lines you’ll find
We waited our lives for you

But in seconds my time will end
I count every breath my friend
and when space invades again
we'll light the way, my baby

so when the light catches blade
when the time comes, do not be afraid 
follow the path we've made
follow the path we've made

You call me down for Christmas cake
Although that's not a thing, I sigh
but I take a plate, I take a bite
and the look that you give me is heavy with pride

You bring me sticks that you find in the wild 
and I count every one and then hang them 
over the fire with patterns of wire and bow 
then we roll on the carpet and howl in the snow

There is a place that I'm home
In condos, apartments, in suburbs and islands
there is a face that I know
and wherever it is I find that my Christmas isn’t cold

You wake me up by dumping presents 
on my bed and forcing my head 
into a hat that's red and white, 
then it's up to the roof for a snowball fight

You get the brandy and offer me some 
although we both know I'm too young 
and when I refuse you're amused then pass out 
so I turn on the reruns and watch them with you on the couch

There is a place that I'm home
In condos, apartments, in suburbs and islands
there is a face that I know
and wherever it is I find that my Christmas isn’t cold
that my Christmas isn’t cold

It's the end of the day and it's way too late 
but I log in just to say “Hi!”
What's up? What did you get? What was your Christmas like?

There is a place that I'm home
In condos, apartments, in suburbs and islands
there is a face that I know
and wherever it is I find that my Christmas isn’t cold
my Christmas isn’t cold (x6)
Ho, ho, ho...home.

Hello, my candy coated darling, it's your vanilla baby
I've come to say I love you and I always have
I find it so amusing, I used to be confused and
afraid that you would never love me back

But now I see that we were always meant to be
you and me forever planting lots of family trees
counting out our children, half a zillion at least
we'll name the boys for you and we will name the girls for me

Hello, the sour peach of my skin, the sweetest poison icing
so tasty it could rot your teeth and brain
The chaotic consumption, the diabetic gumption
to do a thing like make me go insane

and leave this plane of reality completely
float among the clouds of pink and blue cotton candy
let's blast into space and race around like airplanes
spreading multicolored chem-trails, soda pop and acid rain

Feels so neat! Never wanna be myself again, I just wanna be SW--E--ET!
Feels so fun! Never wanna come back down...

Goodbye to heartbreak on my birthday, annoying boys who hurt me
with all the stupid things they do and say
I can't even remember, what I was so upset for
Spun sugar melts in water anyway

So no more crying, dry those tears, I'll end your pain
Soon you'll feel the cherry syrup running through your veins
Heaven is a grinning face with not a trace of shame
Take a taste of every flavour, favour anything but plain

Feels so neat! Never wanna be myself again, I just wanna be SW--E--ET!
Feels so fun! Never wanna come back down....
