-Lyrics-

They say "Just wait,for the color in the sun and the sky, It'll be back" 
Or was the a lie?
The Sun drags it's feet.
Just a moon against a black sea, with specks of dust shimmering.
That's fine by me.

I'm waiting for your mood swings to swing back at me.
I'm waiting for an answer to a question from last week.
I'm waiting for the Sun, but the sun drags it's feet.

Just the Moon, the stars, and some rum.
I've become a fraction of the sum.
Looking for answers at the end of a gun.
All I want is the color back, back in the Sun.

The Sun Drags It's Feet

Lyrics -
When you live day by day, there isn't much else to say, 
'cus every single day feels the same.
It'll never stop, the clicking of the eternal clock.
When you look through your dreams, 
what is it that you see? 
An empty black sea of figurines? 
All the empty faces, or the empty seats? 
Push back the curtain and take a peak.

Your biggest fear is never being heard, or being heard and misunderstood. 
You ask yourself if you could.
Your fear is being loud amongst a silent crowd.
A silent crowd.

I'll whisper into your ears insecurities and fears.
Fears that you'll lose all that's dear.
So pop my top, and down me twice. 
I'll sit back and smile as you say;

"Take me away, I'll never say no when you say, 'c'mon let's play, play all day'
It'll never stop, just like we're running from the cops"

Day By Day (DEMO)

if you really set out to define
critical thinking about yourself
youll be dissapointed with what you find

youll find out why all the clouds are grey
youll find out why no one would say
happy motherfucking birthday to you 

every single day takes me a little further away 
from the ideas ive had about me 
tryna find out what the deal is with airplanes
wishing i could fly away
Wishing I could fly away

im dissapointed with what i found
questioning more answers then questions 
but whats the point of asking if i dont fucking care?

The Deal with Airplanes *DEMO*

Recording some ideas for later when i realized to late that didn't put my phone on silent

Punk-ish Mixtape [Volume 1] January 2020

Curmudgeon Demo #4
wrote lyrics 6/7/20, recorded on 8/22-8/23, mix and mastered on 8/29/2020.

Lyrics:
penny pinchin', union bustin, xenophobic old curmudgeons		  
that pretend to care about the working class		
optimistic with a twist because that man was a trust fund kid 
who really believed he earned his keep 
Sacrifice our days and lives every day and every night 
Just so the magic line can go up and up and up
and when that line goes down and down they'll turn the blame right around 
on the immigrants and the refugees 
and red and blue they eat it up and turn it into them or us 
it's only the illusion of choice 
red or blue D or R doesn't matter who you are
they both will eat you up like the wolves they are 
don't be surprised you voted blue and nothings changed except you 
you've wasted your life making both sides rich

the propaganda state ensures 
that what you think and what you speak are not your own words
the talking heads are on every night 
they'll tell you what to buy and when to cry 
communities are diminishing while the country is flourishing
the economy is thriving while the rest of us are dying 
they have their cake and they're eating it too
while they squeeze every last penny out of you 
Land of the Free if you have the money to pay the fees...
