El sendero

What has he done for you, man? 
Built you a castle of sand
Watch it wash away
What has he given you, man? 
Given you a high place to stand
Watch it all come down

Run, man
Fast as you can

Heard you've been washed of your sin
And now your rebirth begins
But still the apple you taste
Heard you want to save my soul
Show me those streets paved with gold
Streets that lead to dead ends

Run, man
Fast as you can

He gives you the gun that blows you away
And false promises to rise in three days
A prisoner to what you heard
Deception is the holy word
Ignorance, the path you take
Let the rapture take you away

Run, man
Fast as you can

Rapture (demo)

Out now on all major streaming platforms: linktr.ee/stripedmccoy

---LYRICS---

i'm not praying for a rapture, after
all these things will be 
fractured and fucked up 
in a world thats chewing us up
show me your greed, none of your needs

What do you see
nothing can breathe
the violence it breeds
clamps down and

Kingdoms wont fall
if we don't fight them all
through your sweat and blood
you must crawl through it all

Greed

Lyrics
No one to see me
Enjoy through the city
Man keep thy onus, they can mess all around
Gallery, café, see comedy
When they felt inanimate, stopped nearby
All them. They would rather, All close, their eyes
Bad faith. padak padak    nal ah   noljahaedo,  molla
Que faire ? Ça paie ? Va dehors ça va te plaire.
How come you and us are living in the different world I wonder
Over phone screens in the city. We can fly and see you all.  
But it feels incomplete when you can hear what we say
Please come and stop here, enjoy the scenery
Dear friend, be a brother with us pigeons  

(inst)

Bread on the floor, run to the door
Life is so romantic with the bakeries croissant,
Street buffet, all for us
Coo-coo we say, watch from above
Fancy lights and buildings, are all just for us
At the Cuckoo cafe awesome cookies and cream
Dance and laugh coocoo with waffle above the merry-go-round

Are you friend or foe?
Never seem to know with you
True, we share a name
But you don't feel the same, do you?
I'm baited and blistered
All because it's not for you

Did you think about it?
Or did you try to break it? 
Have you come to numb the pain?
In some world
Some day
You won't need to blame me
Could we try to start again?

Tear me down again
Just to feel the weight from you
Some won't let you near
While others lie in fear of you

Come in screaming
With your guns blazing
Have you come to numb the pain?
In some world
Some day
You won't need to blame me
Could we try to start again?

Unresolved (ft. Melosopher)

The first version of a new track. This is a darker vibe than usual. I don't think I'll be adding any vocals, doesn't feel like there is enough space for them. Feedback welcome!

Wave After Wave

Cursory glance
To deliberate blinds
The realities of the knowing eyes
Pushed me to move
Rearrange a few lies
Love showered me in praise left me to dry

Prodigy child 
To prodigal son
The fascination in “be all but one”
Left me to be
Mediocre at some
Couldn’t take it alone
But couldn’t give up the gun

Now everything is so heavy
Heavy on my mind
Wanna say I’m not ready
But time isn’t mine
Try to keep it steady
And hold on tight
But everything is so heavy
Heavy all the time

Love of a child
To love for a day
The narrowing of life swept years away
Urged me to beg
Forgotten lives to stay
Memories are strong but not enough to sway

Now everything is so heavy
Heavy on my mind
Wanna say I’m not ready
But time isn’t mine
Try to keep it steady
And hold on tight
But everything is so heavy
Heavy all the time

And I could pretend the hurting wasn’t here
But closing both of my eyes it won’t make
All the weight disappear
And I could ask to lay my cross down for the day
But it can’t stop now
It couldn’t stop anyway
Could you help me carry it 
Could you help me carry it
Could you help me

‘Cause everything is so heavy
Heavy all the time
Wanna say I’m not ready
But time isn’t mine
Try to keep it steady
And hold on tight
But everything is so heavy
Heavy all the time

Everything is so heavy
Heavy all the time x4

Heavy

Nonspatial

Haunted World

Does it taste like copper in here?

Conductivity?
An electron symphony
With maximum BPMs? 
Full of notions — or maybe sound and fury? 
Synthesizing nothing. 

Some nothing to live for. Some nothing to die for. 
Neuroplasticity gone awry. 
Outsides are inside now. 
The strings spark with static, never youth. 

Let's dance to grim dirges and soulful elegies. 
Dance our deaths away.
Dangling like marionettes
From necrotic umbilical cords
And the strings the old hangman can still pull... 

Swaying in the breeze.

Synaptic Synthesis

Every little thing I say, Seems to mess around your day 
Every little thing you do, makes me want to fight with you
Every night you drive me to drink,  I'm trying to swim but I know I'll sink
You've been getting on my last nerve, and here's something that I observe 

Fighting is no way to be
Loving you is what I seem to need
Tell me, why do we even fight
Can't we find a way to make things right

Are you really gonna take it that far, Baby just get in the car
Remember when you kissed that guy, I was just saying goodbye
Come on say it to my face, You’re the one who made the mistakes
Maybe you’re just too blind to see, Quit playing games with me 

Fighting is no way to be
Loving you is what I seem to need
Tell me, why do we even fight
Can't we find a way back home for tonight

No one seems to win
When did it begin 
So flawed 
But such bliss 
Just lie and tell me this can fixed
