RIGHT ROOM

A song written for the No Kings march held on October 18, 2025

Lyrics
[verse]
An old vet lays at the overpass.
Gallon of milk, by his head.
P.T.S.D… bites him fast.
While he sleeps on a concrete bed.

Ice! is forming everywhere.
Black, blue and camouflage.
Who they grab, they just don't care.
It's political sabotage.


[chorus]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
This king is fake!  tarnished bronze!
Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
We are America's pawns! America's pawns!


[verse]
Give the rich, more tax cuts.
Keepin' 'em happy is the goal.
You see, cheaters have no guts.
Nor do they have a soul.

When you need a little aid.
Some help up off the floor.
No matter how long you pray.
They always punish the poor.


[chorus]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
This king is fake!  tarnished bronze!
Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
We are America's pawns!  America's pawns!


[verse]
Media spews worthless news.
Lies from corporate owners.
Pushing right-wing views.
Plus those of crooked donors.

They love their guns, it's crystal clear
While our kids get shot and bleed.
Losing power is their only fear.
Their DNA drips with greed.


[chorus]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
[background chanted] No Kings!

This king is fake! tarnished bronze!
[background chanted] No Kings!

Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
[background chanted] No Kings!

We are America's pawns!  America's pawns!


[solo: guitar]


[ chorus ]
Remember!  There's strength in masses!
[background yelled] No Kings!

This king is fake! tarnished bronze!
[background yelled] No Kings!

Eliminate!  right-wing fascists!
[background yelled] No Kings!

We are America's pawns!  America's pawns!

[all yell] No Kings!

America's Pawns (No Kings)

They gave me a plaque
and I gave them a shrug
Said I'd made it
but I still packed lunch in a mug

The mirror bowed politely
the inbox threw confetti
My name misspelled in bold
close enough to celebrate

I've got a title no one uses
a password I forget
My empire fits in folders
still waiting for respect

My paper crown bends in the rain
ink running down the royal face
Every rule I followed
spelled my name wrong anyway

But maybe that's the trick of it
meaning hides in the small print
The joke's on grand ambition
the punchline's in persistence

Because the crown is cheap
but it's mine
Cut from yesterday's plans
lined with coffee stains and time

It may not shine on stage
but it holds when the wind complains
It's proof I showed up
again
and again

My paper crown bends in the rain
but it catches the light just the same
Not gold
not perfect
but honest enough
Every crease is a story
every tear, tough

Maybe greatness was never loud
just someone staying kind
still trying
still around

We wear our paper crowns
the crooked, the flimsy, the proud
We wear them not for glory
but because we're still here
Still building something small
that somehow lasts

Yeah
Call it fragile
Call it foolish
but it fits

Paper Crown

Iron Halo

This one feels like stepping into a haunted night that’s alive with rhythm and restless energy. It’s about drifting between the real and the unreal — where the pounding bass from a distant rave mixes with the sounds of the graveyard, and you can’t quite tell if you’re dancing with the living or the dead. The song captures that eerie beauty of being caught in a dreamscape where ghosts, music, and moonlight blur together, and even though it’s all surreal, it feels strangely comforting — like being part of something eternal, even just for one night.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Dust devils rise up in the night
Dead leaves swirl
Under pale moonlight
No one sees my plight 

[Prechorus]
Bass vibrates the tombstones
Shadows stretch out long
Tonight ain't so bad when you're not alone 

[Chorus]
Bones they rattle
Skulls they gleam
Graveyard rave
Is just a dream
A dream
A dream 

[Verse 2]
Fingers clutch grasping air
Cold wind blows
Through my hair
Do you even care 

[Prechorus]
Synth lines pierce the silence
Every spirit sings along
Lost souls gather where they belong 

[Chorus]
Bones they rattle
Skulls they gleam
Graveyard rave
Is just a dream
A dream
A dream

A Dream

alternate of Thalassix done for the Music/Art Jam rapidly done for WNCJ39 when i found out the jam was conducted only through the Discord!  (and a reminder to myself to later make a dummy project page on Itch.IO, as if posting an Itch item that's not-a-jam... because i'm confused that it's not on my page lineup, lol...at this time: not yet done) Barely made the deadline.
