From open to close, a musical journey through my Book of Shadows

Ashes and Echoes - Closing_Release pt. 1

Lead single from our upcoming debut album PATHOS out 12/25

Lyrics:
He said his name like it still meant skin,
Asked for help with a nervous grin.
Told me he worked here, “just a tech,”
Didn’t see the wires in his neck.
Thought he was dying, “can’t feel my legs,”
Didn’t see the steel, the rust, the dregs.
Told me to find a phone, make a call —
But I didn’t know what would make him fall.

There was a switch, there was a hum.
And then the scream broke through my numb.

He screamed like a man, not a machine,
Cried out like blood still ran between.
Metal groaned, but the voice was real,
A sound no circuit’s meant to feel.
I pulled the cord, I made it hurt,
Thought it was wires, not a soul in dirt.
But I heard his pain, I knew that sound
He screamed like a man, I shut him down.

He kept asking, “What the hell’s going on?”
Didn’t see the body he’d become.
Said his ID, said his name,
Didn’t know he’d lost the game.
I thought: “He’s just a voice in steel”,
But he cried out like it all was real.
Not code, not noise, not just design,
But agony, confused and blind.

He screamed like a man, not a machine,
Cried out like blood still ran between.
Metal groaned, but the voice was real,
A sound no circuit’s meant to feel.
I pulled the cord, I made it hurt,
Thought it was wires, not a soul in dirt.
But I heard his pain, I knew that sound
He screamed like a man, I shut him down.

He screamed like a man, I shut him down

What are we when the pain remains but the flesh is gone?
What am I if I flipped that switch and still moved on?

He asked me to stop., I didn’t understand
He begged me to stop, I still had my hand on the switch

He screamed like a man, I can’t unhear,
The echo's lodged behind my fear
I didn’t see a soul in chrome,
Now I carry him in every bone
I turned the power, turned the key,
And all that pain came back to me
No gods, no signs, no helping hand,
Just a voice that screamed like a man

He thought he was human,
Maybe he still was

And I didn’t ask.

Still Human

Pasa el Lean

90's inspired guitar rock. Produced and recorded in Metro Detroit.

Saw him on the way to work, a face without a soul.
I see him grinding most every day.
When evening comes his day is done. He parks out on the road.
But when he's home, he's so alone. He's got no place to go.

I will ride when he drives.
Anyway I want to know, I've got no place to go.

The evening cracks. The man is on his own.
He clicks a belt and slips it into drive.
Where he goes, I just don't know. I'll help him find his way.
I decide he takes a ride just to get through one more day.

I will ride when he drives.
Anyway I want to know. I've got no place to go.
Will he die if I thrive.
Anyway I want to know. I've got no place to go.

My shadow's getting longer everyday.
Watching shadows past fade away.
My shadow's getting longer, that's no doubt.
Well that's just how life stretches out.

When He Drives

A Clue

Forever

don't worry be happy

Lyrics:

I'm waiting for the other side
Because everything in this world dies
And maybe I could turn back time
And see that you were not mine
But I see it's not what I think
And I see you are
Someone else and I wish
For you to understand 
That I'm not on this earth anymore
