Dramatic, cinematic, atmospheric...my favorite track on this album.  The lyrics pose the question that since the darkness was around before the light, and will be around after the light goes out, is it more powerful?   I try daily to stay in the light.  I was going for a Cure / Slowdive / shoegaze sound on this track.  It's a slow build but it was losing a lot of listeners initially, so I created the alternate, more poppy/punchy Light Mix (Track #2).  But I still love this one and found little ways to polish it up and add elements to beef it up and keep it moving.  I think this version is perfect for the album closer.

Instrumental song I made in school. The first one I've ever made. Be on the lookout for more! Thanks for listening!

01 no name

it's you on my mind
it's you I feel benign
it's you I feel I might die
if I cannot leave here 
I cannot stay here 
I might die

wish nothing but to slumber for a long time
lethargic skin brags blue and ribboned bones
the centipedes feed away on my soul
churning spit I rub along my burning feet I walk
I feel I'm f*cked up
but the drunk they kind of feel better
I feel like I'm f*cked up
I just wanna die right here

it's you on my mind
it's you I feel benign
it's you I feel I might die
if I cannot leave here 
I cannot stay here 
I might die

its you on my mind

Silly girl
You don't look so good
There's nothing here that makes you feel the way you should
The summer's gone and you've lost your way
Why hide your heart
You know it's always such a waste
Seeing you cry and it makes me sad
Makes me think that I should hold you everyday
Miss you always
Even if you hit the ground
Miss you always
Even if you're here to play

Silly girl
It's just a way to go
There's nothing cool that makes my heart stay away
I've seen you cry and it makes me sad
Don't hide your eyes
You know it's always such a waste
Miss you always
Even when you hit the ground
Miss you always
Even when you're here to play

Its too far too slow
Sad life
Is it really love, or
Its your problem
Its too much to stall your heart
I want you now
Its too much to see you
All I have

1996

I can see you laughing
Through dreams of perfect sleep
Sleep away from me
You know what's in my mind
When you go, I'm crying
Dream, dream away from me

Let the Lord embrace you
Bow down and spare the reed
When I close my eyes
Your fate shall be free
When I see you drowning
I'll dream, dream away from you

Rare Phantom is the alter ego of a Massachusetts native who began making music during the pandemic. A time when silence was loud, and escape became necessary. What started as a private form of therapy evolved into something far greater: a voice, a vision, and ultimately, a persona that now echoes across the alternative music scene. 
 The name Rare Phantom wasn’t born from fame or strategy, it emerged during late nights filled with reflection, pain, and creative fire. “Phantom” represents the parts of ourselves we often hide: the trauma, the rage, the passion, the sensitivity. And the “Rare” is the boldness to own it all publicly. It’s the idea that showing your shadow side isn’t weakness, it’s power. Rare Phantom became the armor and the amplifier.
 Adorned in old world mafia elegance and covered in ink that tells its own story, Rare Phantom immediately commands attention. But it’s the music, a blend of dark melody, haunting vocals, and gut punch honesty, that keeps listeners coming back. Each song is a doorway into the internal battles and emotional landscapes he’s lived through.
 Rare Phantom isn’t about perfection, it’s about presence. Through this persona, Rare Phantom invites fans to embrace their complexity and reject the idea that image defines worth. His art is a rebellion against the shallow, and a home for those who feel too much
