Smalltalk - You Don't Even

Comets, they come and go
Comets, they come and go
Comets, they come and go
Comets, they go...

Tiny little star ship slipping through the sky,
Turn your burning flashlight out, just print it to my eye
Tungsten barely cuts it, the stardust man is out,
He burnt into your green screen babe, 
You can run but you cannot shout 

Living a lea gun, 
I see a sea gull,
I see a sea gull, 
You'll never get it back, never get back, it’s under the sea 

(Chorus)

I never believed you 
When you said
We'd be flying though space,
Up here in anti gravity 
with your beautiful face.
It started with a Big Bang,   
But how the world has changed,
So all these asteroids,
they make me feel so safe..

Living a lea gun, 
I see a sea gull,
I see a sea gull, 
You'll never get it back, never get back, it’s under the sea 

(Chorus)

lyrics
Far back, the voices fade out, the choices made dawn upon us soon, 
Sat back, the silence sets in, as miles and semblance leave us gone	

As far as I can see, the time it screams at me 
you travel much too far 
too far for you to be alive 

I heard you screaming No! What are you afraid of. 
Show all the skin that you are made of, 
But you feel so old. 

So many thoughts, so many moves, to say, to make, to feel, to hear, to see, 
I hope I haven’t left behind the chance today 

As far as I can see, the time it screams at me 
you travel much too far 
too far for you to be alive 

Rocks Remember. 

Far back, the voices fade out, the choices made dawn upon us soon, 
Sat back, the silence sets in, as miles and semblance leave us gone	

Can’t ever let my time, 
Decide just how long I have got. 

(But) You feel so old, don’t you now?

Rocks Remember

Raised the bar too high
(And now it's out of sight)
Raised the bar too high
(I just let it slide)
Raised the bar too high
(Now it's out of sight)
Raised the bar too, far too high

My will is shaken
I'm waking up to paranoia 
It's broken me too
Failure, again
I raised the bar too high
My arms are shaking
I'm waking up to paranoia 
It's broken me too
Failure, again
I raised the bar too high
And now I'm scared

Yeah mind over matter, but mine leads to misery
Fake strings can never feel honest on this symphony
I failed the brave
Fake strings can never feel honest on this symphony

My arms are shaking
I'm waking up to paranoia 
It's broken me too
Failure, again
I raised the bar too high
(Far too high)
My arms are shaking
I'm waking up to paranoia 
It's broken me too
Failure, again
I raised the bar too high
And now I'm scared

Raised the Bar

This is the story of the drunk loser who traumatized everyone who ever cared for him. He's a selfish fiend who burnt every bridge . This song is the collective voice of everyone he alienated and hurt - his ex-wife, his family, his friends, even his children. They have all moved on, they had to. He's stuck in circles, forever chasing a high...

Lyrics
She took the kids and half your money, found out about the whores i see . 
Grab a drink or maybe twenty, to convince yourself that you’re right. 
Smash a glass, beat up a lady, need to feel like a man i see 
Another drink now you’re an absent daddy, who thinks he's right all the time. 

You’ve been playing the fool for so long, you’re time is running out/ 

You’re out of cash and you got no honey, to bail you out of another scene 
You’re a drunk loser who won’t stop trying to convince himself that he’s right. 
You’re out of cash so you to try to hustle , some kids who are to young to see 
You’re a fraud ,a cheat ,a neutered bunny. 

You’ve been playing the fool for so long, your time is running out. 
And when they do grow up, they are going to hate you, 
You might as well kill yourself right now.

Drunk Loser feat Fame

It's not complete yet.

Lyrics:

You called me up
in the dead of the night

You made some plans
I said okay, that’s fine

I’ll see you there
with my chest feeling tight

Awkward eyes
not feeling alright

You saw me there
Losing my way
Not a word
Was said through the day

You said it’s fine
I feel the same

Don’t look away
You’ll get through the Haze


Weird is good
and so is champagne

So take this glass
and let’s sing in the rain

We’ll stay away
from people and pain

I know it’s strange
but it’s not insane

You called me up
in the dead of the night

made some plans
I said okay, that’s fine

I’ll see you there
with my arms open wide 

Awkward eyes
But feeling alright

Weird is good but so is Champagne

Started this track 2 days ago, at 6:30 AM which is why the name.
No samples in this one, all cooked by ya boi. Have a groovy Sunday y'all! 
Peace

6:30 AM

how you didn’t say hello.

Squeaky shoes 
Making noise 
But girlie loves the girls and boys
Awkward hands
and awkward hips
How to dance 
And where to kiss
Little did I know back then 
you’d leave me standing alone at ten
I feel cold I’m shivering
A little high 
I’m quivering 

But it feels good 
It feels different 
I think I’ll keep the thought of you 
For this moment 


I remember that day like it was yesterday 
The flowers and the pavement
The ironic place name
And I also know today 
When noticed my name 
And ignored it completely 
So I think I’ll just leave.
And so I’ll let go 
Go with the flow 
But you should know
How it goes,
That I remember 
How you didn’t say hello.

how you didn’t say hello

This confluence provides an experience filled with a lush palette of psychedelic and groove filled songs.
