🎤 Lyrics:
Baby, do you understand me now
If sometimes I seem to be mad
But don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to be bad

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems that all I have is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I've got my share
And that's one thing I never mean to do

Oh baby, don't you know I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing, some simple thing I've done

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Yes I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Yes I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me

🎤 Lyrics:
Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty-five degrees

The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
It belongs to them, let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?

The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent now, to pay our share

Four wheels scare the cockatoos
From Kintore, east to Yuendemu
The Western Desert lives and breathes
In forty-five degrees

The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
It belongs to them, let's give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?
How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?

The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent now, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
It belongs to them, we're gonna give it back

How can we dance when our earth is turning?
How do we sleep while our beds are burning?

🎤 Lyrics:

I feel
I feel
I feel
I feel
The same way I feel every day
Like a part of me is going insane
And I’m numb like novocaine

When you feel cold and afraid
You always call out my name

You walk alone,
Misunderstood
Because you feel
Because it’s real

Your life’s a mirror
Of my shame
Because it’s real
Why must I feel

I feel
I feel
I feel
I feel
Stuck in place with nowhere else to go
This nightmare has only just begun
This darkness burns like the sun

When you feel cold and afraid
You always call out my name

I’ll hold you close
Take us away
Because you feel
Because it’s real

We’ll come to fight
Another day
Because it’s real
That’s how I feel

When you feel cold and afraid
You always call out my name

I’ll hold you close
Take us away
Because you feel
Because it’s real

We’ll come to fight
Another day
Because it’s real
That’s how I feel

📝 Artist's Note:
"This track is a sonic memoir of a pivotal yet temporary phase in my life—a detour from my musical journey that led me into the complex web of a relationship with a woman battling addiction. Through her, I discovered the intoxicating allure of Ecstasy (MDMA), a substance that opened doors to transcendent experiences. However, the line between reveler and supplier blurred, culminating in a nearly two-year stint behind bars."

🎸 About the Cover:
"Wish You Were Here," originally released by Pink Floyd in 1975, stands as a profound meditation on absence, longing, and the bittersweet nature of memory. Our cover of this iconic song pays tribute not only to its haunting melody and evocative lyrics but also to the spirit of Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd's enigmatic former frontman, whose presence lingers over the track like a shadow. Melding the original's soul-stirring emotional depth with our distinct alternative and indie rock sensibilities, we aim to bridge generations, connecting those who walked alongside Pink Floyd through their heyday with listeners discovering the timeless relevance of their music today. By weaving together detailed soundscapes that echo the innovative spirit of Pink Floyd's original composition, this cover embodies a heartfelt homage to one of rock music's most legendary acts, exploring themes of loss, longing, and the enduring power of friendship.

I'm Wágner, born and bred in New York City, and I made my mark as a recording artist as far back as the mid-eighties as a new wave solo artist. I co-founded Nerve with Jeff Almeyda in the nineties after taking the lead singer/frontman role in various NYC rock bands. Jeff was known for his massive sound and excellent execution on the drums, and my vocal style has been called impactful and dynamic, distinguishing me from other vocalists of the era. My musical journey kicked off when I was just 15, recording two demos, "Dust" and "Visions of You." These tracks quickly evolved into a 7" single that I distributed.

In 1986, inspired by the New Romantics and the New Wave movement, I breathed new life into these demos for my debut EP, A Way of Life. This EP also featured "The Third Wave of Sorrow" and a dance club remix. Rob "Bung" Bengston, a remarkable producer and engineer, worked on this EP at The Workshoppe Recording Studios. This studio, known for its association with Cy Curnin of The Fixx and housing Blondie's "Betrok Tapes," gained further acclaim when Victor Loud, the famed drummer for Billy Idol, collaborated with me on the 12”, adding his expertise on drums and percussion.

Novus Records launched my debut EP and got nationwide distribution through Important Record Distributors, which later became Relativity Entertainment Distribution (RED) in the 1990s and eventually part of Sony/RED Distribution.

After nearly three decades away from the music scene, I've re-emerged in Orlando, Florida, as a solo artist. In 2023, I teamed up with Mauricio Mirapalheta, a talented multi-instrumentalist with a background in metal and punk. Mauricio is my exclusive music partner, instrumentalist, and producer, adding his significant skills to this thrilling new chapter of my career.
