Lyrics:
Time is really quite a thief
He found me in the night
And stole my baby teeth

Roadkill in the street
Still breathing
Might be in my head
He’s probably been dead
For a long time now
Don’t ask me how I am

It’s a can of worms
I don’t know the right words
And it only hurts to talk about
So I don’t
So I don’t
So I don’t
And it works
Til it doesn’t work
Just avoiding the hurt
Forever and ever and ever
Ever

I’m a can of worms
I don’t know the right words
And it only hurts to talk about
So I don’t
So I don’t
So I don’t
And it works
Til it doesn’t work
Just avoiding the hurt
Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever
And ever
Ever

Would I know I’m going mad if I were
Going mad, would I know
As I go would I know
Once I am?

Cannibal Beach

Cannibal Beach (feat. Black Flamingos)

Lyrics:
Lay me down
Among the bones
Within my reliquary
Dyeballs and chestnuts
Dotting a damp yellow yard

Eyes open wide
But there's a shroud
Across the sky
Squirrels scurry by
Climbing the trees
I never made the time to try

Who would've thought
Who would have ever thought
Summer would pass so fast

Day by day
I met each arbitrary deadline
And maintained
The silly charade
Of a person who can act their age

Now silk-tailed waxwings jingle
Bells my mind recalls
But ears can't hear
I seek them following paths
Of berries dropping everywhere

Who would've thought
Who would have ever thought
Summer would pass so fast

[Instrumental]

One last time
Before the mold
Crept into figs and quinces
I meant to rinse myself
In a warm golden light

And let it sink deep
Into my skin and
Fold a blanket round my heart
Knowing it's hard
To keep hope alive
When the sun goes dark

Who would've thought
Who would have ever thought
Who would've thought
Summer would pass so fast

Sun Goes Dark

Somebody Else

Lyrics:
I am a one man circus
I do everything 
So incredibly 
Since I’m the one that’s pullin all the strings
Give a bow
Tip your hat
Marvel at the fact
That there’s no list of writers on the screen
It’s just me, only me
 
Oooh
LA LA LA LA
Oooh
LA LA LA LA
 
I am the sole director
I’m the soul behind the show
Hell I AM the show
So give a clap, show some respect
Great job Mads, take five! Thanks Mads!
No prob Mads
I’m a gas, a lovely crowd
Make me laugh out loud
Even when no one else is around
 
I gotta do what I gotta do
I've got me and you’ve got you
If my shoulders were broad
I’d rule your world too
The fate of it all in my palms
You’d applaud
At the drop of a hat
You’d excuse all I do
I could dine at the Ritz in my birthday suit
But I’m hardly a man, and yet I’m hardly a girl
I’m the hand of God in my own little world
 
I am a one man circus
I’m the host if you will
And still I am also the tent
And the elephant in the room
My very own personal peanut gallery
And my own worst critic
And all my own five star reviews
I’m the spot with the best view
And can you guess it?
You’re also the best view!
 
Now you’re getting it!
 
Oooh
LA LA LA LA
Oooh
LA LA LA LA
 
I am a one man circus
I’m the singer and the song
And the writer and the dreamer
And the show that must go on
I’m the “silence all your cellphones please, yes even the buzz”
I’m the buzz that keeps me wanting more
And therefore coming back for more
Because 
 
I’ll always do what I gotta do
I’ve got me, I don't need you
No one can help even if they wanted to
I’m the player one and the player two
I’m the acrobat, I’m the net down below
Catching myself when I choose to let go
I’m the puppeteer and yet the puppet still
I’m a marionette at my very own will
I’m hardly a man, and yet I’m hardly a girl
I’m the hand of God in my own little world
 
I gotta do what I gotta do
I’ve got me and you've got you
Used to play the part well
But now it seems I forgot
You’ll never know who I am, who I’m not
Don’t look too close
Or it’ll seem odd
This world that you see
Can be quite the façade
You’ll still applaud
Not your job to ask
But backstage I know
I’m wearing a mask
 
And when I burn out
And I wish to be done
I’ll yank at my strings
It’s only Act 1

Lyrics:
No time to waste
Gonna be late for fate
You know what they say ‘bout bright flames
Gonna burn out
They gonna replace you
Replicate
AI generate you
 
No time to waste
Gonna be late for fate
You know what they say ‘bout bright flames
Gonna burn out
They gonna replace you
Replicate
AI generate
 
I don't know the things I wanna say until I say it
I hate it till I play it
Up on stage and see your faces
Let go of the reins
Now my whole brain’s a one man circus
This has to be my fate
It’s my only sense of purpose
 
Make it a character
You're her but you're not her

No you can’t take a day
You’re our brightest flame
No you can’t change your name
You’re our brightest flame, woah!
 
I don't know which way to go
So I continue forward

The pure and utter horror
Realizing I left me behind
I'm lonelier than ever
But I guess that's for the better
Time to kill and bills to pay
And plenty things to write

I’m just a little not myself lately
Too late to contemplate
You chose your fate
Maybe I should
 
Make it a character
You're her but you're not her

No you can’t take a day
You’re our brightest flame
No you can’t change your name
You’re our brightest flame
No you can’t take a day
You’re our brightest flame
No you can’t change your name
You’re our brightest flame

I’m done, I’ve just begun (la la la)
Why am I burning out?
Did I fly too close to the sun? (la la la)
Why am I burning out?
It was just starting to get fun (la la la)
Why am I slowing down?
Why am I burning out? (la la la)
Why am I burning?
It’s burning
 
No time to waste
Gonna be late for fate
I know what they say ‘bout bright flames
Gonna burn out
They gonna replace me
Replicate
AI generate me
 
Gotta keep up
I’m eating my own dust
Don’t know what to do or to trust
Gonna burn out
They gonna replace me
Replicate
AI generate

No time to waste (I don’t know if I can go on)
Gonna be late for fate
You know what they ‘bout bright flames
Gonna burn out
They gonna replace you
Replicate
AI generate you
 
No time to waste (but I know the show must go on)
Gonna be late for fate
You know what they ‘bout bright flames
Gonna burn out
They gonna replace you
Replicate
AI generate
 
I don't know which way to go
So I continue forward
The pure and utter horror
Realizing I left me behind
 
I could write
A thousand songs about it all
I've just begun, now I can't stop
Lose your mind
Stay who you’re not
But the brightest of flames
Burn half as long

A Thousand Songs About It All: Act 1

My Only Sense Of Purpose

in times of great stress i turn to witchcraft. see three of swords by ratwyfe

i’m so scared that you won’t miss me

Baby Bugs - Holy Water

The connection between us all...you feel it...awake, sleeping dreams...its there all the time.

LYRICS

Whisper-soft, that first light thread,
Woven from things we never said,
Between constellations and quiet sighs,
You stitched your name across my skies.

No map could chart the way we came,
Yet still we followed..flame to flame.
The night bent low to hear our vows,
A hush that only love allows.

Chorus
Like a stich in time, our love forever binds
We move forward with one heart, riding the coattails of Venus and Mars, there it is ,
the thread between our stars

When I first saw you, something in me moved
I was so young, and didn't understand what
came over me, but the Universe had a plan.

Chorus
Like a stich in time, our love forever binds
We move forward with one heart, riding the coattails of Venus and Mars, there it is, the thread between our stars

Outro
I confidently put my hand in yours, the warmth of skin on skin
produces feelings that are sure. We show up full of this life and beyond trusting the Universe, answering its call, that were soulmates to be enthralled.

Moonthread

The Thread Between Our Stars
