When we were sleeping
We couldn't remember
Dampened our temper

When we were sleeping
They found a solution
Without retribution

When we were sleeping
Deployed the agenda
To make us surrender

When we were sleeping
Became the pretenders
Now and forever

Turn a page in the book of time
Center stage in the play of mind
Shine a dim ray of amber light
Into the night, our ever lasting plight
Quell the rage in the modern times
Pacified as we tow the lines
Blind to lies that keep us confined
Out of sight, out of mind

When we were sleeping
We could have been healing
The truth is revealing

When we were sleeping
The voice of reason
Was labeled treason

When we were sleeping
Lost in the dreaming
Silently screaming

When we were sleeping
They had us believing
Our lives had a meaning

Turn a page in the book of time
Center stage in the play of mind
Shine a dim ray of amber light
Into the night, our ever lasting plight
Quell the rage in the modern times
Pacified as we tow the lines
Blind to lies that keep us confined
Out of sight, out of mind

Turn the clock back to a time
When humanity dared to find
The truth hidden among all the lies
Into the night, we shined our golden light
Free from every philosophy
Divisive religious theosophy
A golden age of autonomy
Out of Sight, out of mind

Turn a page in the book of time
Center stage in the play of mind
Shine a dim ray of amber light
Into the night, our ever lasting plight
Quell the rage in the modern times
Pacified as we tow the lines
Blind to lies that keep us confined
Out of sight, out of mind

Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of sight, out of mind

i dont know what to say,
 and i dont know what t think
dont know how to sing here we are

she dont know how to dream
she dont know how to stay
she dont know what to do 
here we are

there's no better place to be
here we are
 there's no better place to be

you can learn to dream
you can learn to forget
you can reach a goal
here we are

and in the time 
you do regret
but then we learn
 and here we are

there's no better place to be
there's no better place to be 

these are all just my observations
i really wouldnt listen to what i say 

she dont know how to dream
she dont know how to stay
she dont know what to do 
here we are
here we are 
there's no better place to be
 there's no better place to be......

Mon pacte avec le D

Bastian Pen, lead singer of the band Tricklebolt, steps into new creative territory with a fresh project under the moniker Baba Pen. Collaborating with a group of talented friends, they form Baba Pen & The Bim Bam Band, a collective destined to make waves. Their debut album, set for release on October 10, 2025, blends 60s-inspired psychedelic rock with hints of folk and cosmic country, all wrapped in the lush, intricate production style of Jonathan Wilson.

The first single, "I Can't See You Cry," introduces Baba Pen as the new spiritual leader from the East. This track unfolds like a medieval love story gone awry, with its unconventional chord progressions leading us through baroque-inspired garden passages. But as the chorus kicks in, the song takes a turn, signaling that things are unraveling within the love-stricken walls.

Featuring members from Grand East, Money and the Man, Tricklebolt, and Jimmy Diamond, is "I Can't See You Cry" a captivating taste of what’s to come, offering a glimpse into the diverse sonic landscape of Baba Pen & The Bim Bam Band. It's a brilliant first step into an album that promises to explore the many shades of Baba Pen's musical world.

Pet Sounds

Las luces del lugar se han encendido 
La pista es el control que has mantenido
la tornamesa expresa sentimientos que estaban escondidos 

Me quiero acercar
Lo quiero intentar 
Pero tus barreras se cruzan en este lugar 
y no puedo

El ritmo que tu llevas adormece cada espacio de mi ser
Te observo desde lejos y no encuentro la manera
No lo sé..
Y volteas 
Y sonríes 
Me desarmas
En el centro de todo estás tú

Sonrisa fugaz
Me mira tu faz
Hace tiempo prometiste no jugar con mi interior haz lo correcto


El ritmo que tu llevas adormece cada espacio de mi ser
Te observo desde lejos y no encuentro la manera
No lo sé..
Y volteas 
Y sonríes 
Me desarmas
En el centro de todo estás tú

Oye...
Acércate un poquito
Quiero sentirte 
Esperé tanto por esto


El ritmo de cuerpo adormece cada espacio de mi ser
Te observo desde lejos y no encuentro la manera
No lo sé..
Y volteas 
Y sonríes 
Me desarmas
En el centro de todo 

SOMOS TÚ Y YO

Encuéntrame en Phoenix
