lyrics:

a constant dragging me

repeating
repeating

this constant stays
this life ive made

if i stood still 
i couldn't tell the time thats passed
a calming place, so vast

drowning in deja vu, i felt it too
i can change everything with you
this constant i choose

constant

Erik Satié was one of the most accomplished French Impressionistic pianists and composers that ever existed. His timeless music simply challenges classification. His premiere Gymnopédie (previously the 3rd in the series) is among his most famous. The melody is so strangely familiar, like it was written in from a dream. Vibraphone definitely helps bring out the intense, yet unintentional emotion of Erik's composition. Written for 4-mallets. Available for 3-octave vibraphone.

Gymnopédie No. 1 - Vibraphone Solo

(Intro)

Verse I
I have nothing to stand on
I betrayed myself 
How lowly am I 
To betray that, closest to me?

I’ve killed who I was before
How will I live again?
Without me around,
How will I forgive my self?

Chorus 
I have betrayed my true self
I no longer know who I am
I have betrayed my true self
I have lost who I was before

Verse II
Oh, to forgive me
But I don’t think I can
Oh, what I’ve done to me
How one could do that?

I seek redemption 
But I’ll never grant
Without me around,
How will I forgive my self?

(Chorus)

(Solo)

Outro 
I have betrayed my true self
I have betrayed my true self
I have betrayed my true self
I have betrayed my true self

I have betrayed my true self

Dancing with Myself

your temperature is 92
 if you’re not sad then why are you blue
 if I meant so much to you
 then why slow down your cold feet shoes

Damn dude you just ruined the mood 
Toe and nose freezing off and now you’re nude  
I don’t understand why you look so bland 
is it the back meat crew while you're screwing your noose

paradoxical undressing
Teach a lesson to you
for making me blue
 Untopple clothes on top as hypothermia progressing you
 as the ice comes in queue

your eyes lock in shock
 you’ve always been my rock
Even if it was an ice block
I miss when I’d catch you mid stalk

You’ll miss when I lie
So you didn’t have to cry
 try to justify

paradoxical undressing
Teach a lesson to you
To snap your last screw

and the hours went right by 
and the powder in the sky
 and I’m freezing thinking of the feelings
 things that you were meaning
When thoughts turned into leaving
  Oh I might just cut off your pride
 but not with a blade of even a knife
 I think that its best
I think I that its right
 if it it was frostbite

paradoxical undressing
Teach a lesson to you
To snap your last screw 
You’ll miss when I lie
So you didn’t have to cry
 try to justify

Paradoxical Undressing

Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his Symphony No. 2 in B major, Op. 14 and subtitled To October, for the 10th anniversary of the October Revolution. It was first performed by the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra and the Academy Capella Choir under Nikolai Malko, on 5 November 1927. After the premiere, Shostakovich made some revisions to the score, and this final version was first played in Moscow later in 1927 under the baton of Konstantin Saradzhev. It was also the first time any version of the work had been played in Moscow.

i've lived a life of despair
so please don't take my hair
it's all that i have left
it will leave me bereft
the norwood reaper cometh

the coming years look bleak
for the suffered freak
ascend the widows peak
what makes the brave man meek

the norwood reaper cometh
its here today and its
gone tomorrow
the norwood reaper cometh

oh fighting back is folly
he culls the hedges wholly
sowed by melancholy
betrothed with just the holy

the norwood reaper cometh
its here today and its
gone tomorrow
the norwood reaper cometh
