​A deeply personal indie folk reflection on the danger of pride and the liberation found in humility. This song is about tearing down the self-made 'fortress' of self-righteousness to embrace the true path laid out by God.

​Inspired by these powerful scriptures:
​Luke 18:9-14 (The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector): The contrast between the proud man standing tall and the humble man crying, "Lord, have mercy—know my name." is the core of Verse 2.

​Micah 6:8: The clear command that serves as the heart of the chorus: "He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

​John 13:1-17 (Jesus Washing the Disciples' Feet): The ultimate act of servant leadership and humility referenced in the Bridge.

​Let the paper crown fall. What does the Lord require of you?

Paper Crown

Recorded in 2008 a mix of old and new songs

East Coast Oi-core .........Sick of Society formed in 1998 originally to play music we all loved and have fun. As time passed the band progressed and realized the music scene was missing something, we wanted to produce something original, so initially jamming out Oi tunes, heavily influenced by all music and Old school Hardcore we felt a new style could spawn. So we introduced Hardcore to our music and thus became an Oi-core band, new, original, in your face, raw and true. Before standing strong with our current foundation, We have gone threw many, many, many members throughout the years Each have contributed to what we are today. SOS has played with & support numerous great bands & Causes, progressed into something even the devil himself wouldn't approve of, spitting the truth in your face, weather you like it or not, we sing about real issues, hard times & life with a passion, yes we're still kickin it till this day....you wanna know more, you'll hear the music. Oi!!!

Sick of Society - Not My Friend

Reinvent the Norm
Embrace the storm
Brace for impact
You never know
What will be

The strangest flower is the one that no one gets 
It's burned in your brain, you never will forget
A splash of color as random as the day
Never know what people will say

Why be normal when you can be set free
Think of all the things you could see...

So let's reinvent the norm
And embrace the storm
Brace for impact
You never know what will be

Reinvent the norm
And embrace the storm
I hope you will see what I see

Mismatched on purpose just to say this
My eyes are opened wide
Double up those socks and shoes
It just fits the attitude

But now, just question for you all
In the end
"Does it make you move? 
Or will you stumble and fall?"

So let's reinvent the norm
And embrace the storm
Brace for impact
You never know what will be

Reinvent the norm
And embrace the storm
I hope you will see what I see

Reinvent the Norm

Im not like them, but I can pretend
The sun is gone, but i have a light
the day is done, but im having fun
I think im dumb, or maybe just happy

I think Im just happy

My heart is broke, but I have some Glue
Help me inhale, Ill Mend it with you
We'll float around, n hang out on clouds
then we'll come down, and have a hangover

and have a hang over

Skin the sun, fall asleep
wish away, soul is cheap
lesson learned, wish me luck
soothe the burn, wake me up

Im not like them, but I can pretend
The sun is gone, but i have a light
the day is done, but im having fun
I think im done, or maybe just happy

I think Im just happy

I think im dumb

Bad Investment - Who Are You?

Originally released as a standalone novelty single for Halloween in 2019,
now somehow part of the forthcoming Girlchild LP.

============
LYRICS:
============
I wake up in a pumpkin field 
Jaw run though with a shiv of steel 
Broken ribs, missing toes 
Sun's on fire, crawling from the crows 

I know there's no way out, I feel it pulling me down 
I know there's no way out 

State of fugue - circumstance 
Blacked out blue at the memory bank 
Instinct hot, blood runs cold 
Slipping grip - still, tight I hold 

I know there's no way out, gore filling up my mouth 
I know there's no way out 

I lay down in the pumpkin field 
Mud is soft - cold I feel 
Rustling leaves getting loud 
[...]

Pumpkin Field (Single Edit)

New song I'm working on! Not completed.
Lyrics:
All the things I could do without you..
Turns out I was right,
Ripping skin too soon.

Any new messages?
Ignore them all.
Go back to sleep and wake up in the Fall.

Time's against our eyes and your hands are against my throat.
Here's a new goodbye, I'll continue on alone.
Maybe now I'll search again for the thing that makes me feel alive.
Maybe some new friends, but by myself is more than fine.

I saw the hanging lights,
Nothing stirred inside.
I'm sure the bulbs are burning out,
Long dead and waiting for the sky.

All I want is to feel again.
And live from my own blood again.
To copy them and relinquish all control to them.
This is it, the time that I won't follow it.

02 More Than Fine

Honor is all we know - Rancid cover

Can't get out of bed
Eyes are opened, I'm still dreaming of
Everybody dead
Even though I'm awake, I still hear screaming I'm

Scared out of my mind
Is this real, when will it end
Bleeding on the inside
Isn't much fun, in my defense

I'm either dead or feeling down
Not much fun to be around
Every single sound
I hear
Causes fear
Inside

You hate me
And I hate everything
When I'm sleeping
I hate everything

Last night made me cry
I can't go through that again
Hearing people die
Not knowing when it'll end

Maybe it's the meds
But I'm tired of being asked
"How bad does it get"
Feels like I'm having a heart attack but

It isn't real, that makes it fine
It's just my damn, demonic mind
But every single night
I cry
I die
Inside

You hate me
And I hate everything
When I'm sleeping
I hate everything

Turn me inside out
It'd be better that way(turn me inside out)
Turn me inside out
It'd be better that way(turn me inside out)
Turn me inside out
It'd be better that way(turn me inside out)
Turn me inside out
It'd be better that way(turn me inside out)

You hate me
And I hate everything
When I'm sleeping
I hate everything
