Lyrics: 

i was floating through my days
adrift in a sea of faces
a burning ember in a cold, cold world
a superhero without a cape
a demon without a tail
riding on a boat
tied to an anchor
that was floating away

you, you found me in pieces on the ground
you, you picked me up and spun me right around
you, you rearranged - rearranged my soul
i suppose you think you made me whole

[chorus]
you are the ghost in my machine
you are the only one for me
you are the ghost in my machine
you are the ghost in me

this is not how i intended things to go
but then again, we both know i'm not really in control
by now you know no one's driving this boat
but don't worry, i'm sure we'll somehow stay afloat

i tried to leave you more than once
you tried to stay, i tried to run
you said i didn't have the guts
and then you kicked me...and it hurt

[chorus]

i suppose it wouldn't matter if i told you
i never really hated you
i just hated myself less
without you
i'm sorry

[chorus]

The Ghost In Me (Feat. Jordan Hirsch)

See him flossing in that metal 
the game’s in a higher level 
Dimensions; we into several 
You see we get them together 
DIY fringe be swangin’ 
bangers-bangers he slanging 
Show on point, he slayin’ 
He wasn’t always this way in fact 
Brown boy slanted eyes 
bleach-stained sweat suit 
Throwin’ water on me 
in the middle school restroom 
Only brown head in my 9th grade play 
13 walking in the streets of uk 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Smiling through the vicious 
a puzzle piece never fittin’ 
a new thread that he was given 
to weave a singular vision 
Could never be avaricious 
instead a quiet ambitious 
No reason left to resist it 
a hater just sound fictitious 
So I’m not, quittin, they stay, squintin 
try to dictate a life they not, living 
T.O. been about that truth, spillin 
don’t buck like a deer when shots hit him 
Don’t Formula One this path that you’re on 
we all gotta make our own living 
Cry out loud, don’t stay, hidden 
fear to fail, say good riddance 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Nathaniel said: “you can’t see me” 
In February, he freed me 
Cleared my head of debris, 
we shattered my boundaries 
and the lowered degree was healing 
Winter was sorely needed 
Like Pakistan, I seceded 
my leaving won’t be repeated 
Never read for them tight roles 
My eyes looked where the sky goes 
So rare like albinos 
Poachers, we zoom right by those 
Few in number like rhinos 
Reaching up for them high notes 
Study me like yo bibles 
cats fall in line like I’m Lion-o 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied

lyrics: 

running away from this place,
looking for a new home to stay,
things are not looking the same,
its time for me to start a new game

running away from this place,
living in a temporary state of mind,
come on darling let's go,
to somewhere far away from this place

running away from this place,
i guess im stuck in a loop
where people are just still the same

i gotta get out, out from this 
temporary state of mind

falling around
falling apart
i just have to go away

diving around
diving around
i just have to go away    

away from this temporary state
of mind 
away from this temporary state 
of mind
away from this temporary state
of mind
away from this temporary
away from this temporary
away from this temporary
away from this temporary mind

Run 

Run ft. Club Douceur

An overly long shoegaze version of one of my favorite Beatles tracks, or as John Lennon put it, "another of my throwaways ... fancy paper around an empty box."

Recorded as part of Rocktober 2010 (a challenge to musicians to record cover versions of songs they love).

And Your Bird Can Sing (shoegaze version)

lyrics //

growing, becoming something
that i told to myself that i'd never be

looking through on what i've had before i turned away
from you

becoming a hero takes a lot of sacrifices 
that you won't even see it coming

growing, becoming the villain 
that i thought i never be
that's what they say when most of the time
i'm just another long lost hero

people see me on the opposite when
behind the mask i'm just a normal 
human being doing the things
that are right when no one ever gives a shit
about us
