Solitary Never Sleeps

LYRICS:
Here we're hand in hand
just tracing 'round the ghosts
to see them off.
Wave goodbye, then laugh
our newly sacred selves
to sleep alone, together-
Yes- alone!
We lie, ear to ear,
just listening for the other's
difference in breathing
The next twelve-hundred days
take place in dreams
until we wake up, not alone.
No- not alone.
They came into our home-
they wanted yours;
they wanted mine;
they wanted ghosts.
In our home.
They were savage for yours;
they were savage for mine;
they were savage for ghosts.
They speak eloquently,
using words like "Solitary",
never "Sleep".
You grasp both my hands
and breathe with me, in my ears,
but darling, I was gone.
Now I can't sleep.
They came into our home-
they'll want yours;
they'll want mine;
they'll want ghosts.
In our home.
Oh, so eloquent...
I was a sucker for them.
They'll speak eloquently,
using words like "Solitary",
never "Sleep".
You grasp both my hands
and breathe with me, in my ears,
but darling, I was gone.

Secret Road (demo)

LYRICS:
Brother, don't claw at your words-
what if there's something hiding under them?
It could have claws of its own,
and nothing'd be left of you
but a grin from your skeleton.
If there's a reason for paths untimely --
up against others more streamlined --
it’s a method we struggle to
keep to ourselves everyday of our
lives.
Brother, don’t claw at your throat;
words don’t come easy, hanging from a rope.
If there's a reason for paths in secret --
hidden from others more defined --
there's a method; a balance.
Without it?
No Karma; no Justice:
No Crime.

Make Phantoms Richmond
Through the sounds of the spectrum of calming to harrowing harmonies, the idling of organs and buzz of synthesized sounds; across the vast landscape of echoing guitars and pianos; and under the spell of soul-shaking, percussive rhythms...they will make phantoms. ... more
