Avoidance

make a little music…

Lyrics:
When you try to explain that the feeling is a precious thing
Don’t just give it away its the start of everything
It will break your heart to see how fast the money goes
Then your climbing a wall under fire and you’re all alone

And we all fall down
In this roadkill town

There's a scar on youre face from the fight that you had at school
There's a primitive smile when the memory returns to you
Your were too locked down to reach out to anyone
Now your friends and foes have come and gone

And we all fall down
In this roadkill town
And we all fall down
In this roadkill town

They say love is drug but I’ve had better memories
All you energy goes in a rush like amphetamines
Play it cool, play it cold, play it dumb and then terminate
Leaving feelings of loss curled around you like a snake

In this roadkill town
In this roadkill town
And its all right now
And its all right now 
In this roadkill town

Roadkill Town

SO  WHAT

Downtempo, electro, experimental electronic, IDM, glitch

It's too cruel this morning light
It was just in dream
I held you tight
Bare, touch, felt real, felt right
Asleep we coming alive tonight

I should stop, it felt way too good
A dream inside
The deepest wood
The screams are real,
Loud tongue roughed
Sleep for these dreams...
Aw fill me very much

Too cruel
Too cruel...

The suits are gone we obey this scene
With most infinite tantric beam
Wrapped up timed fast rhythmic duo
Bend my back green Jackson Jewel
Way too cruel these open eyes
Too cruel was dream you gripped me tight
REM embrace like no other
Word tantric trace
Dream lover

Solo heard we were there locked
Hands held head and back and shock after shock
After shock - Too cruel as climax
Just dream wrapped in slumber finest

Too cruel
My Jackson Jewel
It's too cruel
Green Jackson Jewel
It's too cruel
Green Jackson Jewel

Too cruel this morning light
It was just in dream
I held you tight
Bare, touch, felt real, felt right
Asleep we come alive tonight

Sensual sense saw full fantasy
Reel me in
Real world Adriatic Sea 
I’ll be forever waves of the deepest light
Maybe our insides will find that out
As melody moon I got my sun
Gem Jackson Jewel stroked heart strings on
So I'll tilt to you JJ toned one
Keep me on
To real wrapped fun

Ah aw it's too cruel
My Jackson Jewel
It's too cruel
Green Jackson Jewel
Aww it's too cruel...
Oh green Jackson Jewel it's too.... 

"Caaaaaaaarl, Where are the Cups"👽



Notes
This one's a good test on my desire to project my music exactly the way it comes out and be honest about it... At the risk of exposing myself too much! Fuck it!

I wrote this half awake after an actual dream that the lyrics paint... I managed to write it and almost retained that period of time where you remember what happened, this is normally only a very short time as we all know but because I managed to retain that lucid feeling... It worked to sustain that period of remembering some what maybe as I got stuck into the writing so quickly after starting to wake up! It was actually really cool and I've never and may never write another song like it again. A very unique experience. The music came later but the words were born in a pretty lucid state! Schweeeeeeeeet


Some people might not do this and feel ashamed to! Great! That might be someone else...

Shame is only something that exists in a person's head if the person gives a shit about what other people think of what you are. Be what you are and be proud of that. Just Be. My auntie always says .. "Other peoples opinions of me are none of my business" And I love having that truth for myself too. You have to read the room and be respectful but ultimately best not be afraid of this world 🌍 There's too much fear out there as it is so may as well create all the love possible

Be conscientious... Then für moi...
Real Love Darts = Fear Bubbles Burst
Yes please 💙🫵🏽👽

How Can You Sleep?
words and music by Mike Damrath

How can you sleep?
When you know you’re the reason they can’t 
Leave their door 
Wondering what they’ll will be mistaken for

How can you sleep?
Safe secure inside your simple world
Aware of the storm
So scared to risk your sure and shady platform

Creating and instilling fear
Blue lights in the rear view mirror
Bright knuckles on a steering wheel 
A sister’s sight of a mother’s tear

How can you sleep?
Wise your hide has eased you on your way
Can't you see
A higher tide takes all her ships to sea

Creating and instilling fear
Blue lights in the rear view mirror
Bright knuckles on a steering wheel 
A sister’s sight of a mother’s tear

How can you sleep?
When you know you’re the reason they can’t 
Leave their door 
Wondering what they’ll will be mistaken for

How can you sleep?
How can you sleep?
How can you sleep?
I’m wondering how you can sleep?

How Can You Sleep?
