… Early man walked away as modern man took control
Their minds weren't all the same, to conquer was his goal
So he built his great empire and he slaughtered his own kind
Then he died a confused man killed himself with his own mind
Go!

We're Only Gonna Die (Bad Religion Cover)

verse:
Fake believe with her heart upon her sleeve.
There's an abscess in the absence of her imunology

chorus:
Maybe she'll see you
Maybe she'll be you
Maybe she's not right there in her head
Maybe she's sunshine under the street light
Taking the main line but going nowhere

verse:
Overdose, in her way she feels the most -
Only if she complicates it and she can't give up the ghost.
Beautify - she's the Orange of My Eye
Its a weakness if she means it in a world on short supply

verse:
Thought decay cuz she wants to stay awake
She's been searching for an answer to my simulated ways

Orange of My Eye

Verse:  And there was substance to you,
A strong adhesive holding,
A place where nothing falters,
A time that once had called me.

Refrain:
There wen the child song.
There goes the valent bond.
There went the affirmation safety net of youth.

Chorus:
Pieces unglued...
That's all I've left of you.

Verse:
The dark was radiating,
The light had long since left you
And still we lit some candles
And borrowed hope as fools do.

Refrain:
And now the thread is bare
And what have we to care
If our cold war has enflamed the last of youth.


Pieces Unglued

verse:
I am here, I am stowed away.
I'm a thief in the night that wont go away.
I'm alive; I'm methodical 
And I'll burn you alive like a hospital.

Refrain: But I don't seem so viral alone
I can't be so viral alone.

verse:
I am fear, you're irrational 
And I fly in your blood international.
I am plague, I am pestilence
And I'll eat you alive as my recompense.

verse:
I can harm; I can devastate.
I can thrive everywhere that you populate.
I control; I can replicate.
There's no surface exist I can't saturate.

Ebola...

Ebola

verse: 
Did someone let you in? - I didn't know.
I felt it on my skin - changing like a ghost
Of someone suffering - locked away
I slave, I decay, I unglue...

verse: 
I'm someone else's sin - a broken Eden.
I'm gasping in the din - like ventilators.
I lost my thought again or part of me 
Is sane, in disdain, or confused...

chorus: 
Can't see what you are.

verse:
You're rotting in the mouth - words fermenting.
I just can't breath you out - my lungs are dusty.
Did someone let you in? - I didn't know.
I change and I stain and I'm used...

chorus:
Can't see what you are...

Bridge:
The days are all ticking away
And the less I like it,
The more it becomes part of me.

Glaucoma

Verse:
It's morning-
I'm feeling something pounding my head,
I'm feeling about a half past dead.
I've been burning all my bridges like I'm finding my religion
Now there's a stray thought
Creeping up my conscience again.
I think I kicked a hole in the plan-
But there's something surging way down deep, 
It's just a little part of me;
It's half awake, it's half asleep.

Chorus:
Did I pay up, Did I run?
What have I done done, What have I done?
I hope I had just a little fun.
What have I done done, what have I done?
I cross my heart and I hoped I’d die
What have I done done, what have I done?
I make you smile or I’ll make you cry.
What have I done done, what have I done?
Verse:
I can fess up
To something that I don’t understand.
I’m breaking all the rules by the man.
Try to catch the feeling but the feel the feeling fleeting as fast as it can.
In my eye line
I see there’s nothing holding it back.
There’s nothing to defend or attack.
There’s a tiny little part of me that you don’t ever want to see and I believe I set it free.


What Have I Done?

Verse:
I saw you there in the blinding white;
I guess I was thinking of you.
I shaded you in now you're on your own.
I think I'm so into you.
I took you everywhere.
I kept you by my side.
But you caught a tear
And I came apart.
I was so into you.

Chorus:
Where have you gone my little heart of paper?
I couldn't have known nothing could've saved you.
Now I'm all alone and I'm still drawn in.
I've been drawn into you.

Paper Heart

Verse:
Come on baby- come and take a chance with me.
come on baby- we can make it soft and sweet.
Come on baby- you can be the one tonight.

Chorus:
we'll drive away
We'll run away
we'll sail away
We'll go away yeah yeah

Refrain:
I'll make it feel alright.
You me me feel alright.
And it will feel so right.
I'll make it feel alright.


Feel So Right

Verse:
I met a man while on the street-
I bummed a light; we start to greet.
I learned his name, a tale or two
About the pain he'd like to lose.

Chorus:
Now he don't hurt anymore
Anymore...

Verse:
I met a girl just south of town.
She had a plan to mute the sound.
She looked quite small; She seemed compressed
of all the strain and all the stress.

Chorus:
Now she don't care anymore
Anymore...

To Be Numb

Verse:
Aint got no time for complications.
You just can't let it go and I watch you burn.
And as the flames climb high in the night
You can drown yourself in the wrong or right
Or you can take a lesson for free
And blame me...

Chorus:
Blame me, Blame me,
Cuz I got shoulders big enough for both of us.
Blame me, Blame me,
Cuz my skin's as thick as the thieves in us.
Blame me, Blame me
And then get on...


Blame Me

verse:
Something lurks in your smile
There's a slant in your gaze,
If I just trusted my instincts,
I should have stayed far away.

Chorus:
There's something dark in your touch
I can't escape from your clutch
You said I'd be safe and sound- running around
The lights go off I go out

Verse:
why don't you let me go home now?
I'm all used up and your done with me.
I know I wont be the last one.
But I guess there's something I just don't see.

All Wrong

Verse:
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
He was nothing.
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
You're going nowhere.
Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed
He was something.
Disgraced the family name
Disgraced the family name
Disgraced the family name
You're going nowhere.

Chorus:
Read this form
Before you're through.
I've got nothing left to prove.
If I die before I wake
I hope I don't come back a slave/again...

Even In His Youth (Nirvana Cover)

Verse:
Don't know where I belong, between aggravation and reservation at all.
I can't escape the thought of thinking I knew you before you had gone it alone.

Give me the strength to confront it and shut it out.
Give me a way to say no.
Come wash my guilt away til nothing at all remains.
Better to never have loved than to have lost.

Chorus:
 Patron of Apathy
Please take the half of me
Caring so haplessly
For reasons unknown.
Patron of Apathy
I got to get away
Shelter the storm in me.
Help me let go.

Patron of Apathy

Verse:
Before you open your eyes,
Before it all slips away,
I think I see the real you
And know that I'm not afraid.
Before you open your eyes
And all your troubles remain,
I saw the piece that was true;
You try so hard to restrain.

Chorus:
Oh I see the real you...
I know the real you...

Before You Open Your Eyes

Verse:
I want you to follow me into the dark hallow.
Million miles of night can swallow everything and all.

Iterate, complicate, reject me at first.
Tune it out, fade it in, I was here first.
Catching the getaway, hours are gone;
Millions of rights to make, billions of wrong.

Chorus:
As we slide...
Don't you cry...
Let it slide...
Let it go...

Charon

Verse:
I've been locked inside this town.
Someone let me out!
Soul's been struggling and beat down.
Liberate my doubt!

Chorus:
Fill the hole of my soul
In this deadbeat town of mine.
Fill the hole of my soul
And I will be just fine.

Verse:
Maybe we should start a scene...
Only you and me.
You'll sing soft and I could scream
Angst and liberty.


Beat Town

Verse 1:
A little cut tears a deeper hole in me.
I can't complain as you're feeding intravenously.
Full speed ahead with the throttle open wide
I live to serve as your sucking all the life out of me.

Pre Chorus:
Its a small life down
As I'm bleeding out.
Wont be much longer now...
Bleeding me dry.

Chorus:
Bleeding me dry

Verse 2:
Your lips can kiss like a fist like a razor blade.
Hope its enough, I'm all used up but who can take my place?
A single use; let my weakness be your strength.
Please parasite my little life now that you've got the taste.

Pre Chorus 2:
Its a small life down
As I'm bleeding out.
You'll be much stronger now...
Bleeding me dry

Chorus:
Bleeding me dry

Bleeding Me Dry (demo)

verse:
I had a thought; its not forgiving me.
I had a thought it often poisons me.
I had a face; you saw it all along.
I had a face; you saw it all along.
I had a name; you knew it all along.
I had a name and you knew it wrong...

chorus:
The son don't shine - well its more than I'd like
And I feel the glow of morning pass me by.
Its so sublime in the birth of my lies
I'm a servant to the master of my mind.

verse2:
I hear a voice; its not forgiving me.
I hear a voice - oh how it poisons me.
I got a taste that never satiates.
I got an ache that always radiates.
I caught a trace - I followed all along.
I want to chase but I stumble on...

Bridge:
Someone new to say I'm just a bad imagination
Someone new to say I'm not the better angel after all

Obtuse

Verse:
Falling through the clouds 
From the dead hypnotic blue-
I never was aware 
I shot a rocket past you.
Sirens from yesterday,
Spoiled, insane.
I was the only one with plastic pain.

Chorus:
Chlorine-
Save me!
I'd rather stain
Than live so plain.

Verse:
The fluid has all fled,
So what will liquid do
Now the Nick of time is dead
And I'm still without a clue?
Sirens from yesterday,
Spoiled, insane.
I was the only one with plastic pain.



Chlorine (Remix)

Verse:
I don't know but I've been told
Shut your mouth your talk is old.
And I can't flush it out my soul-
No one cares if no one knows.
Wont you play a game with me?
Ring around the hanging tree.
Evils of a candy heart;
Beating in an empty dark.

Chorus:
Lie lie lie
Your tongue is bleeding.
Lie lie lie
For lack of reasons

Lie Lie Lie

Verse:
Up in the distance, the wall's closing in.
The more that I notice, the more I forget.
Softer and somber where ribbons cascade,
We're mourning the morning we lost to the day.

Chorus:
And now we know where we stand- we stand.
Mezzanine.


Mezzanine

Verse:
I stand alone sometimes outside
Staring up toward the sky.
I feel so small I could be swept aside.
And how I often wonder why
If I didn't look inside
Would I be the same as you?

Chorus:
Deep Marianna
Breathe Marianna

Marianna

Verse:
Way up in the sky
In my big red riding balloon.
I'm floating so high
I must be stuck between the sun and the moon.
But take it from me
We'll be so happy and free
Above this territory
Between the land and the sea;
It has me singing this song
So why don't you sing along with me.

Chorus:
Africa, Asia, Europe and Australia,
North and South America.
Africa, Asia, Europe and Australia,
And don't forget Antarctica.


The Continent Song

verse:
Wondering what matters so.
Wonder what it takes what all to die down.
We can move away from daggers.
We can leave the crowd to whisper aloud.

chorus:
Eyes on me-
They don't see.
Eyes on me-
More than it seems.



Eyes On Me

Verse:
Well I don't care, I'm going nowhere.
How I wonder when I go under.
Problem solver with a revolver.
Big deceiver caught in a fever.

prechorus:
Goodness me, I am violent and free
And I do not believe that this bad blood will leave easily.
My mistake, I'm awake, I'm a fake
And you can't replicate how alone and forsaken is me.

Chorus:
I love, I loathe, I hate me...


Loath

Verse:
Well I’m feeling my way without you
In the dark, in the dead of night- I need your light
Please let it shine

I’ve been wasting away without you
Emaciate the hunger pains- I call your name
Please let it shine

Chorus:
Lucia - you had me within your soft glow
Lucia - do you have a bit more to get by
Lucia - you had me why did you let go
Lucia - the dark is so stark without you


Verse:
I’m only a slave without you
In the dark where the thread is bare with frigid air
Please let it shine?

I heard someone say they found you
Set ablaze with a wreath of flames upon a stake
They made you shine

Refrain:
Cuz I flicker in the dark without you
Cuz I flicker in the dark alone

Lucia (demo)

Verse:
She’s only sad and lonely in a crowd
She’s vicious, dark, suspicious, inside-out

Chorus:
Missing my point of view
Missing my point of view
I think she thought so small just to waste my mind

Verse:
He’s faded, stuck and jaded and headed out
Can’t handle so much samples through the mouth

Chorus:
Twisting my point of view
Twisting my point of view
I think he swallowed up just to taste some life

Verse:
You waste it dry erase it get it out
Hair trigger getting bigger going down

Chorus:
Killing my point of view
Killing my point of view
I think you thought it up just to take my life

Missing the point of view
Twisting my point of view
Killing my point of view
I think I thought it up just save my life

A Certain Point of View

As part of a company "daily isolation challenge" slack channel competition to "cover" the famous Baby Shark song.

BabyShark (reimagined)

verse:
I know a guy and I don't know why 
But he blew his mind in cyberspace- yeah
When in doubt lets all check out and
Just hang about real-life's such a boring waste- yeah.

I know a girl who cuts her wrists
And starves herself til she don't exist at all- yeah
She bought a lie without asking why
I guess she'll die of pride before she falls- yeah..

Living through your normal
Where I'm the freak- yeah.

chorus:
It's such a strange world
So it seems.

Normal Freak

verse:
My suburban paradise - yuppie zombies fill the mall
Its a bloodbath glutinous smorgasbord, a commercial capital
Eat em all, kill em all, so we can shop

My suburban paradise - entry level luxury
The vehicular homicidal Jones's just got floored by my A to B
A to B, A to B, and we can drive

My suburban paradise in my fentanyl pharmacy
We all bow our heads to doctors in a church of chemistry
Chemistry, slavery, and we can..
My suburban paradise in my MMORPG
I plus one your World of Warcraft with my Final Fantasy
Fantasy, Fantasy, where we can play

Chorus:
Na na na na - go go

Refrain:
Free, land of the free
Suburban me, suburban scene
Suburban free...

My Suburban Paradise (demo)

verse 1:
cherry pick through the sick and your someone
narcissist with a twist cuz your someone
demon eyes for your side if you're headstrong
service lips til it slips that you're all wrong 

verse 2:
Make a scene, you're the queen in the big show
Its a tribe genocide for an ego
Dress rehearse so perverse while you bleed it
Common ground for the clowns cuz they need it

chorus:
Hang your head

refrain:
Let down your guard and just accept it
A march of pawns goes apoplectic

Hang Your Head (demo)

verse:
I should've kept my eyes on you.
I should've known just what to do.
But you drew me in like a cigarette;
I should've kept my eyes on you.

chorus:
You're so full of color.
I need you.
Arrow-straight since you've known me.
My heart beats true.

verse:
I should've kept my eyes on you.
I should have known but what could I do?
Now I've come undone and you've had you're fun;
I should've kept my eyes on you.



I Should Have Kept My Eyes on You

verse:
Anesthesia, Anesthesia
How I'm always pleased to see you.
I've been broken; life just drones on
Wont you call to me with your sweet song..
Nah nah nah...

chorus:
Given you everything
Given you all I love
Given you all I could sacrifice
But I need you always a little bit more

verse:
Anesthesia, Anesthesia
Wont you leave me here in the Ether.
Had a nightmare, now a daydream;
I took a pinprick; I too the Red Queen down
Down, down, down...
