lowk a throwaway i grown to like
prod.sickboi


city lights dont feel the same
but its pretty nice here  in the rain
ii miss your smile that keep me sane
yeah its your vibes that sweeps the pain

big new place i never been
i miss the days of seventeen
ill wish away my jealously
and live inside my reveries

side my reviries,
i just wanna fucking kill my enemies
so im popping fucking pills and some ecstasy
just to get a fucking thrill dying chemically

everyday you got me stressed
a heavy chain right on my neck
im wasting time just smoking packs
i made my mind im going back

seventeen

(super rough demo)

Hollow points and bullet casings
riddled with your favorite memories
I get lost inside your daydreams
sleeping in and picking favorites
maybe we can meet next summer
spending all our time together
hoping for some sweater weather
take my hand and move it closer

you are my one and only
I can't keep spilling out my guts 
I wanna crawl inside you
until my brain gets turned to mush
and since my heart is older
it wont stop filling up with blood
at nights I try to comfort the only girl I've ever loved


you are my one and only
I can't keep spilling out my guts 
I wanna crawl inside you
until my brain gets turned to mush
and since my heart is older
it wont stop filling up with blood
at nights I try to comfort the only girl I've ever loved

with you
with you
don't slip so soon
with you 
with you 
don't slip so soon 

with you
with you
don't slip so soon
with you 
with you 
don't slip so soon 

We'll always fall again
I'll wait another day
so I can drift asleep

all night long
holding you till dawn
holding you till dawn
holding you till dawn
holding you till dawn
all night long 
holding you till dawn
holding you till dawn
holding you till dusk
holding you till dusk
holding you till dusk

Wince

(Demo)
This summer time, I need you
wait one more night just to see you
your worn out eyes are getting fickle
blink once or twice

make up your mind 
this summer time
I wonder why
you can't be mine

this summer time
I wonder why
you can't be mine
you can't be mine 

this summer time
this summer time
this summer time
this summer time

time
don't waste your time
don't waste your time
don't waste your time
on me
don't waste your time
don't waste your time
don't waste your time
on me

make up your mind
this summer time
I wonder why you can't be mine
this time
I wonder why
you can't be mine
this summer time
this summer time

The Worst Breakup Ever

(Demo)
Pain
It's all I really want
It's all I really want
It's all I really want

Take all your time
another day inside
I can't decide
whether to take you out

The clock ticks 5:00
& cast's a shadow
you wonder why
I slouch

can't ever look in your eyes
I might betray you
It's shooting up in my spine
against my taste buds
there's nothing left to hide
I know it's stupid
you know I'm stupid 
so fucking stupid

I'm dumb
(I'll keep fucking it up I swear it's nothing)
I'm dumb
(my body's in pain at least it's something)
I'm dumb
(yeah gimme 12mg I swear I'm better)
I'm dumb
(fuck if the pain doesn't stop, I think I'll suffer)

Sunday morning
the time keeps ticking by
nothing effects me
I can't even try
pacing over
there's nothing left to do
I'm already dead
I'm already dead

YEAH

don't you forget me
when I turn to dust
don't you forget me
when I turn to dust
I'm thinking about the future
and it's looking pretty grim
I'm thinking about the future
and it's fucking shit

FIX IT!

Baby I love you--
but I'm scared of change
baby I love you--
But I'm scared of change

SLUMPED

(demo)
lose
I'll lose myself in you
Cause I can't ever choose
What I'm supposed to do 

It's always up to you
It's always up to you
whatever I choose
Cause I'm always gonna lose
yeah, lose myself in you

you
aren't you scared to lose
yeah, lose myself in you
I'll lose myself in you
cause it's what I'm supposed to do
whenever I'm with you
whenever I'm with you
it's what I'm supposed to do
Whenever I'm with you

Loser

The Dilemmas of Modern Man

So Intentional

This track is a raw, unfiltered reaction to loss. It’s about the moment when the headlines become personal, and the grief becomes too much to handle. "People are dying" explores the desperate urge to escape, to run and keep running, because the reality of the situation is driving you insane. It’s a scream for help set to a beat.

Style: Post-Punk Revival / Dance-Punk / Urban Indie


[Verse]

Do you really think the government cares about you
It's true
Do you really think they're gonna save you
They won't

[Chorus]

And it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
People are dying
And it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
People are dying

[Verse 2]

I just got some news today
Someone else is gone
I'm going insane
I don't know if I can handle this
Another one
I can't do this
I just need to go
I just need to get out of here
I need to run
And run and run and run
Because if I don't
I'm just gonna keep screaming
People are dying
People are dying

[Chorus]

And it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
People are dying
And it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
People are dying

[Verse 3]

No
I don't wanna see this
This is all too real
I'm gonna go insane
How can I stay here
I don't wanna stay here
I can't stay here
People are dying
People are dying

[Chorus]

And it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
People are dying
And it's getting worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
People are dying

Conduit - People Are Dying

"How to Make the Best of Things" is a Slacker Rock anthem for the doomscrolling generation. Blending the angular guitars of Art Punk with the infectious rhythm of Dance-Punk and the grit of Lo-Fi Indie, this track turns a boiling pot of anxiety into a danceable groove.

Style: Slacker Rock / Dance-Punk / Art Punk

[Verse 1]

I watched a new clip about a sad thing
With many folks yelling
It's a pity they don't see
That yelling doesn't solve anything
And I wondered what would help
And then I remembered a tip from my mom
She said "A pot of boiling water
Will never calm down if you keep adding fuel
But it might if you add pasta
And make dinner with it"
And I figured
Maybe it's the same with people
Maybe they just need more pasta
Maybe they just need more pasta

[Verse 2]

I saw another clip about a different sad thing
With more people yelling
And I wondered what would help
And then I remembered a tip from my dad
He said "A pot of boiling water
Will never calm down if you keep adding fuel
But it might if you add eggs
And make breakfast with it"
And I figured
Maybe it's the same with people
Maybe they just need more eggs
Maybe they just need more eggs

[Verse 3]

But some folks are lactose-intolerant
So I asked my uncle if he had any tips
And he said "You can boil potatoes"
And my aunt said "You can steam veggies"
And my cousin said "You can poach chicken"
And I figured
Maybe it's the same with people
Maybe they just need more potatoes
Maybe they just need more vegetables
Maybe they just need more chicken
Or more pasta or more eggs
And I know people aren't pots of boiling water
But maybe that's how you make the best of things

Conduit - How to Make the Best of Things

"Not From Here" is a swirling Post-Punk trip through economic anxiety. Opening with a wall of feedback and a wah-heavy bass groove, the track uses phaser-drenched guitars and reverse cymbals to create a space that feels both expansive and claustrophobic.

Blending the grit of Garage Rock with the textures of Neo-Psych, it builds into a chorus of layered gang vocals that cry out against a system rigged from the start. It’s atmospheric, raw, and heavy with delay.

[Verse]
I am not from here
My days are slow
We all get along
Do you think you can get on?

[Pre-Chorus]
Try not to interfere

[Chorus]
We get what we want
And we know what we want
We know what we need
So tell me what you need

[Verse 2]
We got so much work to do
I guess it isn't work if it's what we love to do
You can join the ride if you think you're one of us

[Pre-Chorus]
You should have no fear

[Chorus]
We get what we want
And we know what we want
We know what we need
So tell me what you need

Working on a 5-song DIY project—lo-fi, creative, heartfelt. Influences: Pavement, Built to Spill, Beulah, Olivia Tremor Control, Weezer.  Looking to collaborate with like-minded folks. Namely singers and a drummer. Looking to record and play around town.

Please note: I hired a drummer and vocalist to help with the demo.

Living in the real world. All songs are rough demos. Seeking collaborators.

Post-punk / alt-indie rock formed in the 90s → recently revived with new releases of old and new material. Raw guitars, lo-fi edge, melodic hooks, and protest-leaning themes. Full new album live now.

Formed in 1989 as various other names until we settled on Conduit in the early 1990's. Started jamming in a chicken coop, recorded music on a 4-track reel-to-reel, evolved to digital technology, Cakewalk, Acid Loops, etc... in the 1990-2000's.
