Hello All. For the past 4 months I have been working on a cover album of one of my favourite artists right now - Lemon Demon aka Neil Cicierega.

It's turning out to be a lot of work, but I'm hoping to have this project released sometime in October or November.

As a show of good faith, I'm making public some of the finished tracks here on SoundCloud. Partly to get feedback, mostly just show off.

Hope you'll all like it.
Praise be to Lord Cicierega.

As Your Father I Expressly Forbid It

Quicksilver Daisy Day

Inspired by the series Daisy Jones & The Six, Faultline Lovers is a cinematic rock ballad that explores the volatile beauty of a love forged in chaos. Two souls, drawn together like elemental forces, collide in a relationship marked by passion, conflict, and deep emotional resonance. The lyrics trace their journey from magnetic beginnings through battles and breakdowns, revealing how love can be both a sanctuary and a seismic rupture. With imagery of storms, faultlines, and ruins, the song captures the ache of connection and the cost of intensity — a love that shook the ground just to feel whole.

🎵 Faultline Lovers
Subtitle: We Broke the Earth to Hold Each Other

Intro  
We came from opposite winds,  
Drawn to the eye of the storm —  
No map, no mercy,  
Just the pull of something torn.

Verse 1  
We were thunder in the canyon,  
Lightning in the veins —  
Two wild hearts colliding  
In a world that couldn’t change.  
You were fire in the silence,  
I was water in the flame,  
We danced like broken planets  
Spinning out without a name.

Pre-Chorus  
Every kiss was a warning,  
Every touch was a war —  
But I kept coming back  
Like I’d never bled before.

Chorus  
Love was a battlefield,  
And we were the storm.  
Two halves of a faultline  
Trying to stay warm.  
We cracked the sky open  
Just to feel whole —  
But the ground gave way  
When we lost control.

Verse 2  
You spoke in riddles,  
I sang in scars —  
We built a house of echoes  
Under trembling stars.  
You held me like a secret,  
I broke like a vow —  
We were sacred, we were savage,  
And we’re still burning now.

Pre-Chorus  
Every fight was a promise,  
Every tear was a song —  
But I’d trade every battle  
Just to prove you weren’t wrong.

Chorus  
Love was a battlefield,  
And we were the storm.  
Two halves of a faultline  
Trying to stay warm.  
We cracked the sky open  
Just to feel whole —  
But the ground gave way  
When we lost control.

Verse 3  
Now the dust has settled,  
But the tremor’s in my chest —  
I still hear your laughter  
In the ruins of the rest.  
We were never gentle,  
But we were always true —  
And I’d break the earth again  
Just to fall with you.

Bridge  
We were never meant for peace,  
We were born to shake the ground.  
But I’d rather fall with you  
Than never be found.

Final Chorus  
Love was a battlefield,  
And we were the storm.  
Two halves of a faultline  
Trying to stay warm.  
We cracked the sky open  
Just to feel whole —  
But the ground gave way  
When we lost control.

Outro  
Now I walk the ruins  
With your name in my soul —  
Still chasing the tremor  
That made me whole.  
Still chasing the tremor  
That made me whole.
