Rise

[Verse]
My head is aching, heavy from the night,
Shoes tied too tight, holding on right,
Wake at midnight, with feelings torn,
Cramps in my calf, the tension worn,
Dreams fleeting fast, shadows collide,
Secrets untold, whispering inside.

[Chorus]
You have to stretch out,
No matter how it hurts,
Stretch out, no matter how it hurts,
Never stop, never pause

[Verse]
When the current fades, silence anew,
The vibration lost, a disconnected view,
Words left unspoken, echoes remain,
Fool's ramblings end, truth in the rain,
Moments slip by, swept by the stream,
Stillness sways, unravel the dream.

[Chorus]
You have to check out,
No matter how it hurts,
Check out and see everything outside,
Oh-oh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
I don’t need a father,
Think I'll go, alone,
Left in this silence,
Seeking the unknown.

[Chorus]
You have to zoom out,
No matter how it hurts,
Zoom out and see everything we’re destroying,
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
You have to stretch out,
No matter how it hurts,
Stretch out, no matter how it hurts,
Never stop, never pause

Stretch Out [Smoking Gun Mix]

The Dream Of Kisses [Before They Came]

[Verse]
Silent roads we tread
In this quiet town
Whispers rise then softly drown
Fallen leaves on stone
We trace shadows here
We trace shadows here

Stars fade, they guide
Paths we used to roam
(We trace shadows here)
Still echoes (trace shadows here)
from our soft unknowns
Time forgets us slow
We are stories told
We are stories told

[Chorus]
(Yet) we hold on
In this fragile night
There's still a spark inside
Still a spark inside

[Bridge]
Tiny spark in endless time, 
awake and come alive,
Through the chaos, stars align, 
you're meant to rise and shine.

[Verse]
Awake in shadows' gentle sway
We walk these roads, fade into gray
Yet still a note, so faint, survives
In the emptiness, hope revives

[Chorus]
(Yet) we hold on
In this fragile night
There's still a spark inside
Still a spark inside

[Outro]
Time may drift and seasons fade, 
but one truth still survives,
The moments shared with you 
were the best of all my life.

Still A Spark Inside [Edit]

Mirrors

Rise [I See A Girl Undone]

[Verse]
Screens aglow, I'm waving low
In this shade, where did love go?
Just a sound, an echo bound
Home feels empty all around
I try to speak, they look away
In a world where silence stays

[Chorus]
They say to toughen up
But they don't feel the steal
Love's dripping through the ceiling
And I keep fading, unreal

[Verse]
Dinner cold, the table's bare
Mom and Dad, lost in their stare
Stories told, but no one hears
Floating through these scrolling years
Yet I smile, keep it all fine
In a world of warning signs

[Chorus]
They say to toughen up
But they don't feel the steal
Love's dripping through the ceiling
And I keep fading, unreal

[Bridge]
Screaming, let me be seen
Through the cracks, I intervene
Breaking free, sounding the drums
Silence turns to shouts, here it comes

[Chorus]
They say to toughen up
But they don't feel the steal
Love's dripping through the ceiling
And I keep fading, unreal

Merit by Morality

Our world is real
It's getting hotter
Yet most don't care for future of Otter
We bus, train, car or bike it to work
Then stare at a screen and increase our "worth"
Meanwhile the greenhouse kills more crops
Each shift many die desperate hunger their props
Well how about that!
They found Earth too...
Yet in our meritocracy,
Continue you do...

Merit by morality
Come the day it finds our sanity

This ain't luck
It's by design
We make society and the rules it rhyme
We decide who spreads our wealth
'Often pick the richest qualified in greed stealth
It's the mind set of money
Keep up with the joneses
Your need to care of their opinion they hold of us
With this disease the companies win
You're all just fodder who can't find within

Merit by morality
Come the day it finds our sanity

So where is true merit?
Our true morality?
Our own health is wealth with true equality
With current control a vacuum for money
Armageddon is on 'less we fill all tummy
Collective health is wealth on a Gaia ground Earth
Planet Human evolved where Love governs worth
Love is our answer
Love shows the way
Love is survival
Love gives all a say

Merit by morality
Come the day it finds our sanity

Paper Tiger (Remix)

This is the final track for "Next Trail Marker". New album coming soon!!

Out, want to get out
Left foot down from the drivers seat
Stepping toward the front door
Grab my key

Now, who been sweeping sand from my driveway?
Toppled blocks piled up by the sidewalk

Think I want to move away
Out to Green Valley
How about it? 
Never look back

Well, fresh start clean the board
New neighborhood 
Stack ‘em back, better than before

Think I want to move away
Out to Green Valley
How about it? 
Never look back

Golf cart to the grocery store
No one sleeping on the bus stop 
Couldn’t ask for more

Out, want to get out
Left turn down to 19th street
Back away from that front door
Let’s move it out

Think I want to move away
Out to Green Valley
How about it? 
Never look back

I think I want to move away
How about it?

Golf cart to the grocery store
No one sleeping on the bus stop 
Couldn’t ask for more


Out, Want Out

Part one was inspired by charging noise, this ones without 😉

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
