I am still saddled with your debt Vengeful and dreaming of your greedy death I don't want to be your income I don't want to be your profit scheme With my newfound roots and an old embrace I do believe I'll find a way to like this place I don't want to be the bad guy I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore I just want to see some live trees I will stay and fight this civil disease We can live in constant motion Or leave the fear behind Set fire to the city And watch the world thrive We can live in constant motion Or leave the fire behind Sit outside the strip club Watch drunken men get high I am still trapped inside your brand name Hungry and hollow from all the times you made me pay I don't want to be your white collar crime I don't want to be your piss-ant slave anymore I'll walk right out into a brand new day Insane and rising in my own weird way I don't want to hear your white lies I don't want to do your corporate dance anymore I just want to see some wild life I just want to find some people without phones I just want to feel some wild life I just want to find some place where I can feel whole Fuck your corporate exploitation We can leave our woes behind Dig some graves for all the leaders Who think we're dumb and blind Save room for all the bankers Who profit from the sale Spread the ashes of the preachers Who were promising us Hell We can live in constant motion Or leave the fire behind Grow some trees, break up concrete And watch the world thrive We can live in constant motion Or leave our fear behind Life a good life, live a free life 'Till the day we die Yeah, watch the world thrive Yeah, 'till the day we die Yeah, watch the world thrive

V1 ...when i feel sad, and alone, like the world has left me far be- -hind, and what's the point of living life? i play this song and sing along to get through the day, and sometimes, i just play to play [spoken] V2 ...my old soul knows, as it grows, that it's not the time... C1 ...words leave my mind, my failing breath subsides, my pumping heart skips a beat, and i close my eyes... i hear this song in my ear... and i begin to hum along... V3 ...so if you feel the same way, when you hear me play, your old soul knows, as it grows, that its not the time... C2 ...words leave your mind, your failing breath subsides, your pumping heart skips a beat, and you close your eyes...please hear this song in your ear... ...and then begin to hum along... V4 ...when you feel sad, and alone, like the world has left you far be- -hind, and what's the point of living life? hear this song, and hum along to get through the day, and sometimes, it may just turn out ok... ||: sometimes, i just play to play, and sometimes, it'll turn out ok :|| C3 ...so if you feel the same way when you hear me play, your old soul knows, as it grows, that it's not yet time, please hear this song in your ear... ...and then begin to hum along...

about

Three rough, single and first takes from the front lines. Equipment: Tascam DR-40, CAD22a, and instruments. Where any polish exists, I can guarantee it's just spit. When you spend your days hiding and running from fellow flesh-eating cannibals and soul-sucking spirits from the sister dimension, you tend to do what you can, when you can, where you can. I tell production polish the same thing I tell the coming zombie apocalypse: get in line.

Consider this a first blush bridge over the gaping chasm between the not-so-random clash of sound we call music and other forms of linguistic storytelling that have, up to this point, left my output heavily segregated and schizoid. By way of comfort, expect more of this sort until I, like everyone, eventually become food for someone else.

DESCRIPTIONS
Everfear references a popular anthem of disaffected youth and teenage angst from the roaring 90s, and punts it squarely like a burning sack of shit into the pristine courtyard of normalized exploitation, where it belongs.

Ziggy Dies Hungry arrived in a dream early one morning as a tribute to the recent passing of You Know Who. It translates the remnant ruminations of an ancient vampire while he decays after being bitten by the Love Bug in all the wrong ways and in all the wrong places.

LGM captures a pivotal moment of lonely sadness where I thought horizontal violence would win the battle of the week, if not the war. I swear someday Kermit the Frog will sing it again. He stood there with me while I wrote it for him.
