Lyrics

Where?
Where did you go?
This house don’t feel like a home anymore.
Phantom pacing the front hall.
Perpetual spare seat at the table.
Where?
Photos removed from the mantle.
Dust accrues in the spaces that we don’t think about.
The simple moments are the ones that tend to stick around.
They’re fading faster every day. Feeling guilty now.
Where?
It hurts to live without
the sound of your laughter - all but echoed out.
That smile disappears into the background.
Somehow, our memories are burdens and blessings.
Where?
Where did you go?
This house don’t feel like a home anymore.

Lyrics

Galaxies fade away as the rain falls.
Droplet vectors solve for each equation.
Butterfly wings in these quantum moments.
Outcomes lie beyond our comprehension.
Everything all at once, then rule out the rest.
Blink, and we shall repeat infinitely.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m waking up with the same swirl of emotions.
Tough to locate the silver lining these days.
Solitary in the best times.
Invisible all the rest.
Yeah, wear a smile like it’s all fine. Oh whoa whoa,
you can call me jaded now that ten years have passed me by.
Lose another piece like clockwork. Only fragments remain.

[Pre-Hook]
Listen to the deaf claim that they hear me.
Empaths, but they don’t understand:

[Hook]
the morning after
never feels as good as the night just prior.
They’re further away from me
than ever before...

[Verse 2]
Further away from me.
No, they can’t understand me.
Another drink in the cup and we’re talkin’ ‘bout love.
This conversation tries my patience.
They lack first-hand education when it goes terribly wrong.
Play the decade off like wings are back and I’m above;
spent it as a statue staring up at missing north star.
It’s all bliss in the moment.
A wish when you cannot hold it.
Wait ‘til you have it and lose it–
then you’ll know pain.
Hope you don’t have to cope with
that empty hole for more than a season,
but when you do, then you’ll finally know...

[Hook]

[Post-Hook]
I’ve spent ten years coping...
Two pairs happy,
one stuck wishing.
Broken angel still can’t see me,
and my hole’s still growing…

There’s a lot goin’ on out there...

A minor, 120 BPM

Lyrics
-----
[Intro]
(The Twilight)
There’s a lot goin’ on out there.

[Chorus]
Gun to the head of the world.
Bombs drop, see the smoke.
Brain matter on the floor.
Do we even care anymore?
Brothers and sisters, they feed on each other.
We are all cannibals.
Aloof as the blood flows.
Noses pressed to our phones.

[Verse 1]
The men at the top,
they got a disinformation campaign they’ve been pushing on us.
Heh, framing it up.
Way too dumb to acknowledge we’re fucked.
Yeah, distrust anybody who can gain from your loss.
Too much bile in the gut.
Too much pus in the cut.

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Fuck it up again. Walk the same path.
Back to the past. Didn’t learn a damn thing. Still cavemen.
Second coming of Christ, He’s gonna step into a wasteland.
Nuclear abortion of His children.
What happened? Sin is rampant.
Love your neighbor? Fuck that - I’ma kill him.
Go ahead and push the big red button.
Reset, there’s a dark age comin’.

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Only care about ourselves,
craving power, fame, and wealth.
20s been a living hell.
Not the dream they tried to sell.
Brighter future? Uhm... we failed.
Tug of war, it’s tooth and nail.
Progress sluggish like a snail.
Human greed, it never fails.
Smith said we’re a virus.
Can’t really argue when you see this.
Murder in the name of resources.
Devil in political forces.
National pride bears torches,
curses, and violent opposition in portions.
There’s a menu to the back-and-forth courses.
Four horsemen serving up the Earth.

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Gun to the head of the world... (Gun to the head of the world...)
Dead and gone, dead and gone.
Gun to the head of the world... (Gun to the head of the world...)
Dead and gone, dead and gone.

“Feels Like Spring” is a progressive song that explores various keys and music styles. I created it in a thirty-six hour time frame - which I think is pretty neat.

A major and G major: tropical chillout
A minor and two of its modes, F lydian and D dorian: melodic techno
D minor: trap
A major: ambient

Friends don’t let friends suffer in isolation, but how does one circumnavigate their emotional walls? “Jinx” explores this predicament. The lyrics draw inspiration from the fantastic Netflix series “Arcane” and are loosely written from the perspective of the lead protagonist, Vi.

E minor, 132 BPM

Lyrics

[Intro]
(The Twilight)
Step up to the line you drew in the sand.
Uh... I can see that you’ve been crying.

[Verse 1]
Step up to the line you drew in the sand
with your back to me and I can see you’re back in your head.
Why is it so hard for you to trust what I said?
I’ll stick with you through thick and thin, yeah.
Your shadow begins to show and then you hide it away (hide it away).
I wanna be the one to help you brighten your days
when all you see is gray.
You’re struggling on your own. Why won’t you let me know?
The line that keeps me out also keeps you captured.

[Chorus]
Oh, if I say anything, I’ll jinx it.
You always isolate yourself from your friends when they try to get in,
and I hate all this tension.
Oh... if I say anything, I’ll jinx it.
Whoa, and I can’t watch you break anymore.

[Verse 2]
Tried for so long to stay strong, but alone, it’s all gone wrong.
Solo voyage you’ve been on cuz you don’t wanna weigh anyone down.
You’re hooked on your problems,
and the only thing they’ve done is drag you back to the bottom.
Lonely spaces plague your situation.
You could do without mounting complications
when you’re adamant you’ll do it by yourself.
Wipin’ at your cheeks, promising you don’t need help.
What are those tears about then?
You’ve been through a lot, and it hurts your heart.
I understand what you’re feelin’
when each palpitation is cause for alarm.
Emotional scars beneath skin.
The worst ones wrought burrow deep in your thoughts,
threatening to take control again,
so you never let anyone see within–that’s no way to live.
You’re sufferin’. I need something to say; is there hope I can give?
I don’t know if you’re willing to listen.
Arms length--such vast distance.
Words catch in my throat.
There’s trauma you’re holding and won’t let go.
Until you’re ready, just know: I’ll toe the line and stand close.

[Chorus]

[Post-Chorus]
All I can do is be here for you.
Step up to the line you drew in the sand.
Can’t cross it even though I know you’re crying again...

[Outro]
If I say anything, I’ll jinx it...
If I say anything, I’ll jinx it...

If It Means a Lot to You

Syndroversion is a one man musical project by Alex Carroll. I started teaching myself guitar in 2011, and I have also been experimenting with writing my own original tracks. Thanks to some encouragement from friends, I have finally decided to put some of these tracks out there for everyone to hear.
