Queen Of Duality

Existing, slowly, body’s tryna kill me,
Draining me of my blood and sanity,
What do I do now? 
How do I get out?
This town makes me feel like scratching my own eyeballs out.

I cover my walls with post it notes,
Reminding me to take a walk,
And not loose my fucking mind,
This happens all the time,
Make yourself a brew I’m sure its gonna turn out fine.

But no-one can tell me that I didn’t try,
I’ve been working real hard from the inside.

Don’t really know what you’re running from baby,
You got the world in your hands,
That’s what they say when I sing them a song,
And can I be in your band?

Give me a war of pain or of pleasure,
But I also need peace,
What kind of lady will I be today?
I’m the queen of duality.

Mmmmm…

Ohhhh…

My mother says don’t you cry,
I’ve been working like a dog for you.
There’s a strange look in her eyes,
I’ve been working like a dog for you.

Mmmm,
I’ve been working like a dog for you.

Mmmm,
I’ve been working like a dog for you.

Ahhhh…

Happy To Be Wrong

№1 Acolyte

The truth I try to bend
Those words I never meant
Will slip in and out 
Cracks of the couch

Past lives don’t look the same
Don’t know who I could blame
Will every sound 
Just rot in my mouth

The dirt I always crawl in
Patterns that I fall in 
Slipping through the sands
When the sidewalk ends gonna fall right through
Another summer night to break a bad mood
Give me something to believe in

Time will turn on you
Chewing through my tongue on the floor of your room
Spirits in the rain and I'm running on fumes
Lifting off the pavement without you

Those words I never meant
Im falling off irrelevant
You'll notice when it stops being fun
Your tears will dry again
Always and after it
I wanted you to know it I'll 
Always be the way I am

The dirt I always crawl in
Patterns that I fall in 
Slipping through the sands
When the sidewalk ends gonna fall right through
Another summer night to break a bad mood
Give me something to believe in

Time will turn on you
Chewing through my tongue on the floor of your room
Spirits in the rain and I'm running on fumes
Lifting off the pavement without you

In the warm glow
From the backyard lawn
Couldn’t stay this way forever

I don’t know
Who to be when I’m not alone
Couldn’t bleed when my veins all run so hollow

The dirt I always crawl in
Patterns that I fall in 
Slipping through the sands
When the sidewalk ends gonna fall right through
Another summer night to break a bad mood
Give me something to believe in

Time will turn on you
Chewing through my tongue on the floor of your room
Spirits in the rain and I'm running on fumes
Lifting off the pavement without you

Mana Takatāpui

Shirley Ann Manson - A genre-bending journey through time, love, and rebellion — this trip-hop/electronic rock track pays homage to the iconic Shirley Manson while telling the story of a mystical connection across decades.

With pulsating beats, haunting melodies, and gritty guitar textures, "Shirley Ann Manson" drifts through outer space, the Scottish Highlands, and punk rock clubs — blurring reality with imagination. It’s a cinematic sonic ride echoing influences from Massive Attack, Garbage, and Nine Inch Nails.

🔊 For fans of: trip-hop, alternative rock, electro noir, and dreamwave soundscapes.
👁️‍🗨️ Visual concept in production as an animated short.

Out in the Highlands
I see a lassie in torn jeans
She seems so lost to me
But maybe it's a friend she needs

So I call out to her and say
Come over here baby what's your name
She says I'm Shirley Ann what's this for
And I'm not sure but there's something more

In you that I can see
The stars a shine above your head
I know you can't see it yet
But mony mickle make a muckle they said

I see you lost in outer space
A Cities in Dust with a Banshee face
Someday when we both know who we are
Then we can play on our guitars

You're gonna travel so far
You're gonna be a really big rock star
When You Grow Up oh yeah you'll see
Because that's your destiny

I see you lost in outer space
Your Cities in Dust you gotta a Banshee face
Someday when we both know who we are
Then we can play on our guitars

  So I went down to her house
  She stuck a stone in my mouth
  Way I can always pull out
  If I like it too much

  And now I see her religion
  Yeah it feeds my obsession
  She said I can always pull out
  If I like it too much

Hey Shirley Ann can you see it now
The Trick is to Keep Breathing so take a Vow
To Run Baby Run till you see the boys
And Push It harder and make your noise

Because the world needs you 
Too many lost in the dark
So Tell Us Where It Hurts
And together we will make it 
Through
