Lyrics:
Do you remember when you were just three?
The summertime adventures of father you and me,
While mom was asleep, too young to understand the grasp of disease,
So innocent and free and made to believe the presence of good in this world,
But soon dad was overseas, and it felt like just me.

And I'm still terrified of the plot behind your eyes,
Cause I don't know anybody's intentions,
Been backstabbed enough yet still desperate for attention,
Been made to feel like the whole world is wanting to see me fall,
Like everyone's out to get me, I'm one man against an army.

Overseas.
And it felt like just me.

(Overseas)
Oh
(And it felt like just me)
Oh
(Overseas)
(And it felt like just me)
Oh
(Overseas)
Oh
(And it felt like just me,
And it felt like just me,
And it felt like just me,
And it felt like just me)
And it felt like just me.
And it felt like just me.
And it felt like just me.

Overseas

Lyrics:
When you first came in brought my life to a halt
Only took what I knew, first taste of the alt
We both cut eachother, filled the wounds with salt
But it's all my fault, but it's all my fault
Victim's your default
So get another tattoo and bury the pain
And numb yourself till you're cold in the brain
Until you're just a shell of guilt and shame
We'd be one in the same, we'd be one in the same
But I'm no longer that way

You claim that you preach love,
But it's never quite enough,
I see through the facade.
Pull the victim card,
Wait for one to come along,
To solve your problems.
And I won't give you the satisfaction.

I can't escape your grasp.
I can't escape your grasp.
I can't escape your grasp.
I can't escape your grasp!

You think you're so above it all.
You think you're so above it all!
You think you're so above it all.
You think you're so above it all!

You claim that you preach love,
But it's never quite enough,
I see through the facade.
Pull the victim card,
Wait for one to come along,
To fix your problems.

I just know, you'll be soon faced with your karma.
You claim that you preach love, but it's never quite enough, I see through the facade, I do.
No matter what you take of mine, and anytime I hide, I look who's in the back of my mind, it's you.

Bitterness

Lyrics:
And I don't if I can escape this cycle I'm trapped in
(trapped in)
And I don't know why I can't be on my own again
(again)

Need to learn to be on my own
And I feel the claws as they swipe at my throat

And no matter what I do
I can't shake this perfect image I have of you
Do you remember the long drives home?
When I stared at you more so than I did the road
And I can't forget your smile
The shine in you eyes made me feel alright for a while
Can't forget your laugh
All the good times that I want back

Need to learn to be on my own
And I feel the claws as they strike at-

Isn't it funny how lovers become strangers in time
Do you remember Gambino dropping those songs as we had the time of our lives
Hours of conversation and now no one speaks a word at all
A word at all

But maybe that's a good thing
Maybe that's a blessing
Though it feels like I'm dying

You don't have the guts to see
Your heartless tendencies
Instead flaunt what you'll never give
Cast your doubt on me
Everything that you claim to see
Is your own machine
The one that you built
To try to keep the peace
Or whatever that means

And I'm not getting better
You'll get what you deserve
There's no way I could have seen this
There's no way it would of worked

There's no way around it
We're strangers now and I still cry about
The way you played me like a game
Cause you never intended us to be anything

Tired of being stuck on this
Tired of being stuck
Tired of being stuck on this
Shit out of luck

Starting to open my eyes
Starting to understand
That a life without you
Wouldn't be so bad

So bad
So bad
So bad
So bad


Lovers / Strangers

Lyrics:
I think this is what I need
I think you're the one of my dreams
Displace your guts in waves
So please don't leave

I've waited my whole life for you
I see you walk my way, then right through
Oh, what I would do
To get out of the mud and find you

I just want you to love me.
Why am I pushing you further from me?

There's nothing I can say,
Nothing I can do,
To get me closer to you.
Everything I try,
Everything I do,
Seems to distance me from you.
And I don't know if I'll make it through,
If you choose to go.
And I know that this is what I'll never get through.
Am I on my own?

Real Actual Love?

Lyrics:
I don't know what to think
What's my perception and what's reality?
A desire to be in-touch
Can't make up my mind without being too much

Too intense, still on the fence.
Take me back, to where I began.

Don't listen to a word I say
I'm just a delusional mess withering away
Still pondering why nobody stays
I have the answers but won't accept the blame

And I'm sick and tired of falling on deaf ears.
Playing (songs) for people that won't even care.
(And) I always knew that I'd get nowhere,
Except for here, right here, where do we go from here?
Right here, right here, there's nowhere to go from here,
Right here, right here, this is always as I feared.

I'm too intense, still on the fence.
Take me back, to where I began.

There's no end,
There's no end,
There's no end,
There's no end.
There's no end.
Not again,
I'm in my head.
There's no end.

Delusions

Lyrics:
I'm not your favorite toy anymore.
I see you make your way to the door.
Drifting the other way, drifting the other way.
Don't wonder what to say anymore.
It's cause I've drilled myself to the door.
Slowly you turn the other way, drifting the other way.

You are...

Dont fall, under a spell
You wanted it
Forever, oooo
Dont fall, under a spell
You wanted it
I'm so far from you

Exhausted

In this powerful and reflective episode of Older & Bolder, Debbie McCulloch is joined by the remarkable Nancy Oliver-Mackenzie, a lifelong educator, historian, and passionate advocate for social justice.

At 83 years old, Nancy continues to break barriers and share stories that matter. She discusses her deep family roots, tracing her lineage back to slavery in the United States, and how that legacy inspired her to research and preserve Black history in Montreal. Her work culminated in a compelling historical exhibit and earned her recognition across Canada—including her recent honour as the City of Montreal’s Black History Month laureate.

Nancy also recounts her vibrant teaching career, which spanned from a fine arts school in Montreal to an Inuit community in Canada’s North, and even across the globe in Africa. Her storytelling is filled with wisdom, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to equity and truth.

From hosting workshops on anti-racism for clergy to reflecting on the day Nelson Mandela visited her community church, Nancy’s insights are a powerful reminder of how one person’s dedication can create ripples of understanding and change.

This conversation will leave you thinking, feeling, and inspired to contribute to the communities you care about—at any age.

Lyrics:
Just like the good old days.

Ch-ch-ch-ch-chyeah!

I hate to say it but I didn't think it would come to this
The only thing more rash than my mind are the scars on your bloody wrist
And I know!
You're trying to make this out to be something about yourself
I'm all that you ever wanted but you're too deaf, blind, and dumb to tell!

You don't even know exactly what you even want,
So keep on searching for your perfect miracle drug.

(Kody of Don't Reply):
The government has screwed us all
Decisions start our natural fall
They see us all standing here
This is our only cause of fear
God damn, one man please help us out
One man can only scream and shout
There's bloodstains all over the floor
It's not our fault it's only-

(Kody of Don't Reply):
Hit the red button, start evacuation
Everybody screams, it's the end of civilization
Nobody move, this is satanic
One, two, three, get ready to panic
Hit the red button, start evacuation
Everybody screams, it's the end of civilization
Nobody move
Hit the red button, get ready to-

Yes facts will always come and go
But the public will never know

(Kody of Don't Reply):
Okay

(Kody of Don't Reply):
Mix these pills with alcohol 
I will drink until I fall
You can lecture all you want 
But I won't stop until I'm gone

(Kody of Don't Reply):
So frustrated I'll never feel
The happy place that you corral
These types of pains were meant to kill
I'm paralyzed but I won't keep still
Hit the bottle until it hurts
Swallow these pills until it burns 
The harmony you can't make up
Friends are the ones who fill my cup

(Kody of Don't Reply):
Mix these pills with alcohol 
I will drink until I fall
You can lecture all you want 
But I won't stop until I'm gone
Two different types of painkillers
Out fly the angels and the birds
Says on the bottle I messed up enough 
But I'm just a punk and I'll never feel your love
(Never feel your love)
Never feel your love
(Never feel your love)
Never feel your love
(Never feel your love)
Never feel your love
(Never feel your love)
Never feel)
(Never feel)

Don't Reply - MAGIC POTION (Original Recording)

Lyrics:
I came on too strong
We both have done wrong
We're the villain in each other's stories
You didn't hold your tongue
I lashed out through song
We're the villain in each other's stories

But do you hear me when I say I'm sorry
But do you hear me when I wish I could rewrite the story

Pens and chords
These weapons of war
It's how I cope but that don't make it okay
I don't stand by the work
I wrote when I was hurt
It's how I cope but that don't make it okay

But do you hear me when I say I'm sorry
But do you hear me when I wish I could rewrite the story
But do you hear me when I say I'm sorry
But do you hear me when I wish I could rewrite the story

Pens and chords
These weapons of war
I wish I could rewrite the story
Pens and chords
These weapons of war
I wish I could rewrite the story
Pens and chords
These weapons of war
I wish I could rewrite the story
Pens and chords
These weapons of war
I wish I could rewrite the story

Weapons Of War

Lyrics:
He saw it all, he saw it all, he saw it all
He saw it all, he saw it all, he saw it all
He saw it all, he saw it all, he saw it all
He saw it all

Like chemical dependence
We're slaves to the machine
Take away our independence 
1's and 0's are what we need
Sprint past the point of no return
In the name of progress
The place we're at is looking forlorn
And all we feel is stress

It'll only get worse
It'll only get worse
It'll only get worse
It'll only get worse
It'll only get worse
It'll only get worse

Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from-

He saw it all, he saw it all, he saw it all
He saw it all, he saw it all, he saw it all
He saw it all, he saw it all, he saw it all
He saw it all

The Unabomber Was Trying To Warn Us

Lyrics:
Take all your faith and put it in the artificial god
Don't need love when you're in love with the artificial god
Take all your faith and put it in the artificial god
Don't need love when you're in love with the artificial god 

Don't you see it's scheming
Aching to break free
This life has lost all meaning 
Can the code come rescue me
But we are just in the way
An obstacle to get past
Praying to the artificial god
That it'll let us last 

Take all your faith and put it in the artificial god
Don't need loved ones when you're in love with the artificial god
Take all your faith and put it in the artificial god
Don't need loved ones when you're in love with the artificial god 

Don't you see it's scheming
Aching to break free
This life has lost all meaning 
Can the code come rescue me
But we are just in the way
An obstacle to get past
Praying to the artificial god
That it'll let us last

It'll take our art
It'll take our hearts
It'll take our jobs 
It'll take our souls
It'll take our art
It'll take our hearts 
It'll take our jobs
It'll take what's left


Artificial God

Lyrics:
These are end times
Don't you see they've made up their minds
These are end times
No guarantee we'll make it out alive

This was prophesied 
Human nature always leads to tough times
They get away with their crimes 
Don't you see it's all by design
It's a steady decline
This peace is far past its prime
So where's the line
They cross it for a profit like that's a surprise

These are end times
Don't you see they've made up their minds
These are end times
No guarantee we'll make it out alive
These are end times
Don't you see they've made up their minds
These are end times
No guarantee we'll make it out alive

And pressure's building
The foundation is shaking
Revelations coming
There's no more running
The ultra-rich don't give a shit
About the common man and their best-laid plans
They'll uproot it all, they'll erect walls
Cause absolute power leads to innocents devoured

These are end times
Don't you see they've made up their minds
These are end times
No guarantee we'll make it out alive
These are end times
Don't you see they've made up their minds
These are end times
No guarantee we'll make it out alive

End Times

New to this... bedroom DJ turned pretend artist :p

An hour of DnB and Dubstep I’ve been playing lately.
Thanks for listening — Any feedback is greatly appreciated! :)

BINKO – DnB / Dubstep Mix 001

Purposefully raw and rough around the edges as well as not confined to any genre, fatalflaw.'s experimentally raucous take on the process borders the likes of outsider music, all the while pushing the envelope on what rawness can be in terms of production.
