No Love Lost
(Joy Division)


So long sitting here, didn't hear the warning
Waiting for the tape to run
We've been moving around in different situations
Knowing that the time would come
Just to see you torn apart
Witness to your empty heart
I need it
I need it
I need it

Two-way mirror in the hall
They like to watch everything you do
Transmitters hidden in the walls
So they know everything you say is true 
Turn it on
Don’t turn it on
Turn it on 

You've been seeing things in darkness, not in learning
Hoping that the truth will pass
No life underground, wasting never changing
Wishing that this day won't last
To never see you show your age
To watch until the beauty fades
I need it
I need it
I need it

Lyrics :

How could I have guessed
That things would go this way ?
I only saw the best 
The one thing on display

You must have kept the rest
Safely hidden away
I thought you were my nest
When you were just my open grave

(chorus)

So Go ahead and tell me how to feel
Tell me that your evil isn't real
Tell me you're my only way to heal
Though you're the one thing in my way

Turn it all around and make yourself the victim
Tell me I'm the one who's yet to be forgiven
Turn my life into a fucking prison
So I can never run away

(verse)

Overtime
I saw you slowly change
But I still believe
That the good in you remains
(bridge)
So I won't leave                                  
Until you're you again                                                                                     
These wounds won't heal                     
But  you are worth the pain
(+scream :) The vow of silence is over
The fear of violence is over
Your reign of terror is over
(chorus)
So Go ahead and tell me how to feel
Tell me that your evil isn't real
Tell me you're my only way to heal
Though you're the one thing in my way

Turn it all around and make yourself the victim
Tell me I'm the one who's yet to be forgiven
Turn my mind into a fucking prison
So I can never run away

The vow of silence is over
The fear of violence is over 
Your reign of terror is over
Because I'm done being afraid

JOYBOT
Music by Overdrive and AudioBake

Mixed and Mastered by Woods Studio
https://soundcloud.com/woods_studio

The title JoyBot is a reference to the nascent sex robot market.

This song is the result of a team effort and was composed in collaboration with AudioBake. The first draft came from him and it was a very interesting techno track. I tried to stick to the style, but ended up turning the song into a strange mix of industrial and progressive rock (sorry, my bad).

The vast majority of the samples were kindly provided by AudioBake (the hardcoreAXAcidLoops package is fantastic).

AudioBake's excellent music production is available on SoundCloud and worth checking out:
https://soundcloud.com/audiobake

The NIN influence here is undeniable and I recommend checking out Trent Reznor's old material.

The spectacular robot seen in the artwork is a life-size skeleton 3d printed by Weta FX for the movie Ghost In The Shell. Concept model by Vitaly Bulgarov. Image posted by Joel Savage on his Behance profile:

I hope you enjoy the track.

A Big Thank You to  Amekaze Hanako-syokudo (https://soundcloud.com/yiiuwl2zc9fa) for adding synth and guitar fx, a great pleasure to collab. Please take a listen to his Chimera version: https://soundcloud.com/yiiuwl2zc9fa/chimeraamekaze-to-xion3?si=173cd5b05bdc48049065e6c10baa78a4&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

The picture shows a chimera on Notre Dame

Chimera

1
It snorted fire,
It had a face like a huge cat
In its centre it resembled a goat
A long tail at the back
Looked as if it could fly
Like a far too big bat (2)

ref
It scared the people
It was always hungry
It was born in vitro
After countless attempts

Chimera, Chimera

2
It looked as if it knew
Slowly it turned its head 
The piercing eyes
Had comprehended everything

It began to chew
With a strange smacking sound
Not only laymen did shudder
Then it started to fludder (2)

ref
It scared the people
It was always hungry
It was created by them
After countless attempts

Chimera, Chimera

3
It was raising its head once again
Then it spreaded its wings
Then it crashed through the windows
Which were supposed to be bulletproof (2)

Which were supposed to be bulletproof…

Chimera (Collab wt Amekaze)

Diese Tage bin ich Sumpf, bin Berg und Tal, 
bin tief, bin steil, bin stumm und taub 
und mein Wort verliert sich an mir.
Erdrutsch ist und das Kraftjahr vorbei.
Nebelwände ziehen durch,
bis ich dunkel und blind den Boden berühre.
Und immer noch ist Widerstand.
Wie soll sich der Panzer lösen, 
wenn die Sonne nicht durchdringt,
wenn Wiesengrün nicht in mich strömt
und Wasser mich nicht stillt?
Wer soll diese Kür vollenden,
wenn die Vision verloren geht 
und die Kraft sich wendet?
Wohin reißt mich der Krieg?
Magere Jahre am Atemgrund.
Wolken bin ich, Abgrund und Meer,
Dämonen und Engel steigen, 
mein Licht verblasst und strahlt.

Schweigen jetzt. Schweigst du, Welt?
Eine andere Tür geht auf, ein andrer Blick.
Zwischen meinen Sohlen und dem Boden Einverständnis,
Mich beschränken auf einen Schritt, in dem ich ganz bin.
In mir wacht eine auf, deren Tanz noch unverbraucht,
unschuldig und laut.
Hier, dieser Vogel ist meiner und seine Spannkraft bin ich.
Ich schwelle ihm Flügel, ich male ihn bunt
und werfe ihm den Flug zu,
lasse ihn aus Flammen steigen, aus stillem Warten.
Hinterm dem dunklen Horizont ist die Sonne!

Stilles Warten (feat. Augenmerk)
