Lyrics

Learning Chinese

Learning Chinese so here is wine, it goes like "jiu"
And your lucky numbers are
10, 45, 20, 21, 26, and thirty flippin' five
So, turn it on its back

"Let's finish this up right now, someone is waiting for you on that,"
Said the dessert's prediction
Oh these thoughts will stray
Yeah, that Highland Heights' wind will blow my way
And it will take me there...

Chorus
A graveyard gazebo, found by a fountain where geese will lay
I saw your ghost down there, it haunts me to this day
... Learning Chinese

Used to say that I was no good
Silver tongued, Wurlitzer machine
You lock away my change
"They outta give me a medal, for listening to this"
Were your last words

But your thoughts will stray
You'll wander by in wonder one day
And I will meet you there...

Chorus
A graveyard gazebo, found by a fountain where geese will lay
I saw your ghost down there, it haunts me to this day
... Learning Chinese


Learning Chinese

She-Spider

You've become that spider, well how's that venom taste?
Does it stick to your tongue, does it rot in your teeth?
Do you ever trip in your web, do you ever slip on eight feet?
With eight eyes most every angle seen, scrutiny for tracing every scene
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, come down from your castle,
Oh Queen and King Spider you lie just despite her
Promises laced with the poison of crazes
Their black and white morals are born of lost quarrels

Chorus
Come down from that tower, 
Away from their power
You and I are going home


She-Spider

Lyrics

Dirty Brilliance

Oh dreamcatcher, are you holding out on me?
Oh drain catcher, it's true, you are clogged and I am glue

But, I won't stand in the rye
No I won't, no I won't and I'll tell you why
I just can't stand all the petty lies
The "he said that she said that..."

Chorus
I've got a "brilliant" mind
That I just can't control
A lobotomy, in a placebo
A hypochondriac just for show

Oh dream weaver, Say hello to miss shadow girl
Oh dream eater, pure shepherd and jungle prince, sing the difference

But, I can't stand the petty lies
The wills and wants of your tired eyes
I've fallen prey to your brilliant lies
The "he said that she said that..."

Chorus
I've got a "dirty" mind
That I just can't control
A lobotomy, in a placebo
A hypochondriac just for show

Dirty Brilliance

Lyrics

Dropout

I'm tired of being so fucking stupid
I'm the dumbest one in my family tree
My degree came straight from YouTube university
There ain't no hope for me, no

Colleges don't want nothing to do with me
A straight white male, much to pale to add to diversity
I ain't a plutocrat, nor an aristocrat 
I'm what you call white bread (toast)

Chorus
A toast to all the pseudointellectuals
A sapiophile is what I've become
Knowledge is always its own reward
But debt is a beast I refuse to release

I'm an expert of shooting myself in the foot
With a little practice I might be able to aim higher
If only I could get rid of the aching head of mine
With a foot-in-mouth syndrome I might lose this little head of mine (shoot)

Chorus
A toast to all the pseudointellectuals
A sapiophile is what I've become
Knowledge is always its own reward
but debt is a beast I refuse to release

Dropout

Lyrics

Future Tides

Chorus
If no man is an island, then I am the peninsula 
You are a lighthouse standing on my shore
Beckoning, attracting, boats into the harbor
Forgive me for flooding... This island I've become

Don't you forget, I am your foundation,
Hovering below you, with adoration
Once I sink down into the ocean,
The floaters will coming, feigning devotion
I always remain, where I've always been
Hiding under this sandy skin
Oceans will rise and bury my frame
Claiming you as their own one day

Chorus
If no man is an island, then I am the peninsula 
You are a lighthouse standing on my shore
Beckoning, attracting, boats into the harbor
Forgive me for flooding... This island I've become

Bridge
Future tides just going with the flow
Undercurrent, erode this heart below
Future tides just going with the flow
Undercurrent, erode that heart below

Chorus
If no man is an island, then I am the peninsula 
You are a lighthouse standing on my shore
Beckoning, attracting, boats into the harbor
Forgive me for flooding... This island I've become

Future Tides

Lyrics

Shadow Shame

A generation of fast sex and slow love
We're sold sex in a bottle from gods above
A jealous animal is all that I am
Who am I to say what I ain't been yet?

Try your best not to get up on the wrong side of the bed
Give the illusions enough time to leave your troubled head
Dust the cobwebs and brush the vines aside
While we unlock the chemistry of our minds

Chorus
I don't want to die alone, surrounded by things that I used to own
I don't want to die alone, abandoned by burnt bridges I ironically burnt down my own
Burnt down my own, burnt down my own

So, scour the world for a beautiful mind, one that accepts you at any given time
You may as well just throw in the towel for all of the fish in the sea are coupled now
Miss shadow girl can't help but remind me of all the north times imagined in my brain
I never thought I'd miss my shadow, put it behind me but regret fuels my shame

Chorus
I don't want to die alone, surrounded by things that I used to own
I don't want to die alone, abandoned by burnt bridges I ironically burnt down my own
Burnt down my own, burnt down my own

Shadow Shame

Everyone knows Gatsby.

New money. Murky past. Huge online following.
'The perfect modern-day twist on the much-loved classic … Gatsby has the glitz, glam and drama of the original, but adds a little more contemporary pizzazz – it turns F Scott Fitzgerald’s book on its head, in the best way possible' Irish News 

 Nic Carraway doesn’t belong amongst the super-rich, but when she scores a cheap summer lease in Long Island, it-girl Jay Gatsby becomes her neighbour.

Gatsby welcomes Nic to her opulent parties attended by the world’s A-list. And in return, Nic helps Gatsby reconnect with an old flame: Nic’s cousin, the ever-charming but now-married Danny Buchanan.

But no one can be careless like the rich. As the summer heats up, Nic finds herself tangled in a web of longing and ambition, betrayal and deceit. In a world where everyone is lying – about and to themselves – can Nic finally tell the truth?

For readers of The Paper Palace, this hot summer story genderflips and reimagines F Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel

Gatsby, By Jane Crowther, Read by Rebecca LaChance

The Fitzgerald is a cocktail that thrives on balance: tart lemon, a touch of sweetness, bold bitters, and the crisp clarity of gin. Scure’s mix carries the same spirit — simple at its core yet rich in detail, each layer revealing something new. Just like this modern classic created at New York’s Rainbow Room, his sound blends elegance and intensity, giving us a refreshing twist on deep, melodic journeys.

From Curitiba to Brazil’s biggest clubs like Club Vibe and D-Edge, Scure has become known for crafting sets that are true voyages. His music flows with deep grooves, hypnotic textures, and emotional undertones, drawing the listener into a state where time seems to dissolve. As co-founder of UTOPIA, he continues to shape the local scene, curating both experiences and sounds that push boundaries.

This Fitzgerald is more than just a drink — it’s a soundtrack to the night. With every track, Scure builds connection and energy, delivering a story that is at once smooth, powerful, and intoxicating. Close your eyes, take a sip, and let his mix guide you through a sonic journey that lingers long after the last note.

Cheers!
