You're all holed up in a 2D fortress, you can't pretend to be safe forever.
=
Tear down, don't tear up
This isn't our ending but an epilogue
sequels and spinoffs will follow.
=
The glass half full is watering the grass
through the fence on the lawn of the upper-middle class

danger and love look better on camera, with color correction, edits, censoring, credits and the cutting out of everything that makes them so real.

Halfasongs:
A bit from when I was leaning towards acousticy folky pop:
we've moved on too fast for the past to catch up
on memories that tail us while our youth eats the dust
that comes from the crumbling monuments of moments
of the simple blissful ignorant children that were
So It goes (Ba Ba) Then it comes right back
Then you know (Ba Ba) You wanna give that knowledge back
And it's true (Ba Ba) That there's nothing to believe in
But I don't believe in that
i want my childhood back
Wondering what makes it tick
Thinking rain will make you sick
Knowing I can change the world
Dreaming of the perfect girl
Wanting to be an astronaut
scared to death of booster shots
All i want to do is feel small again
=
More recent, Darker Stuff:
Much like an execution
defined divine retribution
It is noise and sight pollution
hurts to watch such convolutions
taking place in a crooked time frame
with nothing but time to blame
I see the walls all look the same
and the winners lose their precious game
Drop and give me twenty something
Whistle-blowing watchdog owners
Opinion rental, Truth for sale,
I'll take what you're telling
because you buy what I'm selling

Definitely using this for Infinite Lives/Versus Mode:
TITLE: "Erasure (An exclamation point is nothing more than a period with an "I" falling on it)"
they want a war we'll them give a slaughter
regain promised land for our sons and daughters
In a flash of white heat and without a single tone
civilizations and cities break down into ozone
and when all is left unsaid and unfinished
all they had ever worked for will vanish
Erasure
Fade away with pencil shavings
all lust desires dreams and cravings
Hopes aspirations fears and peace
expression and depressions simply cease
Erasure
Numbingly Cold
Erasure
No one will be told
Ghost towns stand lifeless and quiet
no cars on streets no people on diets
from this we will build a manifest empire
in invisible corpses, bury telephone wires
The culture they had will be but an anecdote
of the guards that watch the towers that watch our walls that line our moats
Chorus

This one's for The Lightning Round (KTL reformation):
Bleeding from your eyes like Oedipus, you claim
But the empress' new blood and her tears are the same
Drumming up sympathy like a half hearted snare
you've unfairly rationed the guilt that we share
A martyr less purpose, without need for a savior
a purposeless martyr, suicidal behavior
Nothing will make me feel sorry for you
short of burning alive or being cleaved in two
Give up Give out Stop running about
Telling everyone how bad I was
Get back get in Breaking up's not a sin
there doesn't always have to be a bad guy
for bridge, maybe hardcore? meh:
you're a purposeless (Martyr!)
watch yourself sacrifice
you're a martyrless (purpose!)
a propaganda device
=
one more for IL/VM, this one's good but needs refining.
They holds these truths to be held accountable
for all their actions for all their words
thoughts included complete control
so bite your tongue and hide your soul
you are registered, trademarked
you are held like a patent
and you've just about had it
but you're not allowed to say
You're watermarked and filed away,
signed in triplicate
and lord knows you're sick of it
Just like every other day
All Rights Reversed
All truths falsified
All freedoms controlled
All heroes have died
=
Art time! A mock up of mouth shapes for a little flash project Aebi and I dabble in:
Look, Me!
and i'm spent. it's 1 am. Go to sleep.
