and onward bound
until the city
was just a distance sound"

You Say

Instance Of You

Huge thanks to Iano @Rosarius for the guitar parts and to Bruce on bass... 

Are you ghosting me? Is that your deal?
Is that what this is and how it feels?
And how the hell does that work for you?
Is there guilt, do you have no clue
How it feels to love and care and trust so much
And share your dreams and fears and such
When suddenly …. There is nothing

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

Verse 2
Emptiness, no sound, no sights
A void once filled with excitement
The thrill of the pace and hunger
Their absence strikes me repeatedly
Not once, not twice, with every ping on my devices
Messages not from you scream the truth
You’re not coming

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

Verse 3
I scroll sometimes through the words
Your wrote to me when you saw my worth
No warning of the savage cut
One day warmth, the next day none
Hours of laughter, not pretending
Now a story with no ending
And I swear that I'll delete them all but don't 
Once more succumbing

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

M8
What does that say about me?
That I could be such a fool
What does that say that 
You could be so cruel

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

my vocal contribution written below

salt and sugar look the same
could be mistaken but that's okay
mistake do happen yeah
mistake do happen every day
every day of life

all those things I didn't mean to break
all these things I didn't mean to forget
I didn't mean

straighten your shoulders, girl
take a deep breath or wash your face girl
but don't get stuck girl

to brood about
linger over
crying over failures again
cry on your grave
flowering your grave
carry your cross
to the death
flowering your grave
while you are not dead yet

Love and pain don't feel the same
but sometimes you're lost
and feel love is pain
mistake do happen yeah
mistake do happen every day

secrets that I forgot, yes indeed
dreams that I gave up, not really meant that
people that I forgot, on purpose
houses I will not build up, on purpose

Cannot see the world as it is
through filters
greed, hate wrath
whatever it is
it affects your judgment
don't brood about
try to by wise
instead of crying over failures
that happen every day
take the lesson with you

Salt & Sugar

Salt & Sugar (Kaerian and MZRPKLPS / Muterial Off the Rails Open Collab)

The vocal version. Haven't really sang on a track for about 30 years, so it was fun to play with a couple of mid tempo ballads. It was also lotsa fun to produce something with voice again. No tricks were used other than doubling, no saturation tricks, no Melodyne, just a bit of parallel processing. [Ver. Vocal 36]

To Confess (2021 - Jeffrey A. Trott)

Lyrics:

Pulled along
Drawn into you 
     like my heart's a cartoon

And I'm feeling this way
'Cause the words you relay 
     aren't what you do

Foolish song
Droning on and on

I'm strung up in you
     but the melody's cruel
'Cause you're so far away
There's no strings I could play
     would ever make you move

To me
Move to me
Would you please
Move to me

Cruelish truth
I'm all messed up in you

I have to confess
'fore there's nothing left 
For me to say to you

And I have to confess 
Before there's nothing left
That I'm in love with you

And I have to confess 
Before there's nothing left
That I'm in love with you

I'm in love with you

As usual, all music lyrics and production done by this guy. Enjoy...

Hello, Ive been waiting for you to call my name
Just like you wanted me once again
But I just wont come to you
You abuse everything that I am standing for
Fuck you

I just cant stand, I just cant stand for it no more x 2
You can fuck yourself, I only need myself

Goodbye to all of your games
To all my complaints
To all of the fuckery I just couldn't take
Look at you big star
You don't need me no more

I just cant stand, I just cant stand for it no more x 2
You can fuck yourself, I only need myself
