Lost In My Head (feat. Ayo Cire X High Rise)

All of these dreams about dying 
and who are you trying to impress?
When the devil comes 
The devil comes
And you think you know the rest

I keep staying up all night long 
Just to dream of you
But my mind gets spoiled
And I think of songs
And none of them are ever about you

The dead man walking is in plain view
Just as you or me
There's the sun, sun don't go
Don't you remember lil ol me?

Confused, confess, we're all a mess
We don't know our hands from our feet
But dream or this infinite bliss 
my cold heart will never retreat

Yea I'm a useless
Useless wonder
It's a wonder I'm even here at all

Useless Wonder!

Original composition….Alejandro Gonzalez M.

Efímero

Artist Comments:

I am beside myself with joy to honour the memory of my high school bestie Dan Wayne Dunlop (October 4, 1957 – November 17, 2012), by re-recording, producing and publishing his original song "Young Love".  Dan and I first met in junior high school and became the best of friends in high school.  We were bad, had tons of fun and jammed together often for many years.  Known by many names, Dan, Big Mouth or the Baron of Barrie, he loved the Barrie, Ontario community and its people. He felt at home in Barrie and even recorded a song, an ode to his adopted City of Barrie.  Dan, as an entertainer extraordinaire, was best known for hosting the comedy skit-based TV show "Big Mouth" winning a Rogers Television Award in 2005 as best on-air personality.  Dan, AKA "FastManDan," wrote "Young Love" in the late 1970s. He recorded it on a cassette player using a drum machine, his guitar, and, of course, his vocals. My AI attempt to revive the recording from my cassette copy didn't work out, so I decided to re-record the song. The great thing is I couldn't be more pleased with the results, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!  In many ways, Dan was my mentor.  I admired and took inspiration from his independent nature, courage, talent and outstanding determination.  A born comedian and later a cartoonist, singer, songwriter, guitarist, Impressionist, puppeteer, exotic pet handler, film producer, radio talk show host, cameraman and film editor,  Dan was one dynamite entertainer and a hilarious prankster!  Just as important was his good nature and big heart.  Dan truly cared about the well-being of others and was not afraid to show you that side of himself.  Dan influenced and affected many people's lives, and all are grateful to have known this man. I miss him very much and crack a smile whenever I think of the good times we had together.  As much as a man can love a man, I loved Dan – rest in peace, my great friend and brother!  Wow, is it not the coolest thing knowing that your spirit has a voice through this great tune of yours?

The Song: 

 "Young Love", with its catchy pop/dreamy groove, delves into that classic middle-age crisis that fosters a man's conflicting desire for younger women.

Butterfly Effect

A Track about a short Love that is long gone but still in my head.

Just Hold

Riding a rainbow

This track lives in the space between obsession and vulnerability, where love and silence collide.
Written and produced in a minimalist, dreamlike space — it’s best listened to late at night with headphones on.

Even When It Hurts To

“While You Down” is an experimental alt rock piece that dives deep into emotional fragility, love, and the aching weight of unresolved pain. With emo rock undertones and raw vocal delivery, this track captures that feeling of being trapped in your own head — holding onto someone who might be the only light in the darkness. It’s about being there for someone in their lowest moments, while battling your own.

While You down
