I'm used to passing time alone
My mind goes to vistas unknown
Don't know if I see tomorrow
But this is my path to follow
Do you feel a little strange?
I've always felt like
I'm stuck on the outside
Wrong planet, don't panic
They'll just fly in and pick me up at night
I wish I could connect with it more
But the real world
Just makes me bored
I lay around all day and think about
The Universe and how
It's getting bigger, faster
Exponentially expanding
Where will we go if it's neverending?
Will we disappear
Or start all over again?
Every time I dare to come back
I wanted to change into someone else
Dead silent, never flinch
And when I’m open I'm wired for sound
Do you feel a little strange?
I like how it feels on the outside
I picked up some easy fame
Safe to say it made me this way
I wish I could connect with it more
But the real world
Just makes me bored
I lay around all day and think about
The Universe and how
It's getting bigger, faster
Exponentially expanding
Where will we go if it's never ending?
Will we disappear
Or start all over again?

The walls surround, no escape
Nothingness, no mind, no face
The curtains drawn, tucked in place
Waiting for it's sweet embrace
These old hands, for what they're worth
Instruments of love and hurt
Surrogates for a beating heart
Used to build or tear apart
All my things lined up in a row
As the dust settles I know
That I'll never leave this place
Of all the most precious things
A memory, a waking dream
All that I hold dear to me
Trappings all around me
The sense of peace
Without holding that
Look upon my face like that
Is all I need
All my things lined up in a row
As the dust settles I know
That I'll never let this go
All my things lined up in a row
As the dust settles I know
That I'll never let this go

You reached out
And held me up
When everything was new
I reached out to you
I didn't know myself
I didn't know the truth
Your key unlocked my door
Then everything came rushing forth
You may have it all
But I have still lots to learn
All these lessons and a few
For good measure
I'm trying to live my life
Like it's my final day
But it's hard to focus on those moments
When you're so far away
It's easy to say
You deserve much more
When you say goodnight
As you shut the door
A hard pill to swallow
This is bigger than us both
Can't I have something
For me, and me alone
You may have it all
But I have still lots to learn
All these lessons and a few
For good measure
I'm trying to live my life
Like it's my final day
But it's hard to focus on those moments
When you're so far away

Some years ago
There was a lonely king
Who lived in the spaces
The spaces in-between
A master of sages
They came from far and wide
To kneel before him
And hear him sing his life
I am the king of the sky
I am king of the sea
Bring me all your weary
And in me you'll find peace
I’ll let you see through my eyes
I'll show you what this means
The one that walks in sadness
Is the one that I'll set free
A man came before him
His clothes tattered and worn
From fighting all his demons
He battled on and on
Reached out his hand
He was broken and alone
Now rise for your king
For you're on your way home
I am the king of the sky
I am the king of the sea
Bring me all your weary
And in me you’ll find peace
I’ll let you see through my eyes
I'll show you what this means
The one that walks in sadness
Is the one that I'll set free

Postlooperish New York
Enigmatic Post-Punkish Postlooperish seizes the tormented pathos and the emotive tension of trailblazer ’80s bands such as The Cure and The Chameleons, at times haunted by murky undertones, with a right measure of hypnotic rhythms, sparkling guitar work, evocative melodic synth elements, boosted by an alluring and poignant vocal delivery. ... more

Hope™ (Single)
by Handful of Snowdrops
supported by 5 fans who also own “Gilded Cage”
I love every song on this release: The pensive, subdued "Empire of Illusion" leading into the soaring synth-heavy track "Hope", ending with the intense, electronic "To Serve in Heaven." I discovered HoS not too long ago and was ecstatic to find a new single released!

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORS

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
