Fires within fires in the sky — we fail We were reaching higher, reaching God — and if we fail? A muse so hollow, a muse without a muse, without appraisal What if we do not fail? A modern man? What is a modern man? A modern man with modern men? What is a man? The fuel is fire, the gold is teeth The mother crying, the brother sees Our Father, Holy Father Bring us larks in tongues And what was lost will never be translated A modern man? What is a modern man? A modern man with modern men? What is a man? The fuel is fire, the gold is teeth The mother crying, the brother sees Crippled by the moon, the ever pale A love so cruel, so frail What if we fail? “And what if we never fail? The wolf is loose, the men are lying while their women dance. And the presence is near. It watches us through the woods. Through the vapor that comes out of our mouths in the cold.”

Sad Girl

By Karianne Gabaldon


A true story about a woman who self harms and a man obsessed with it. The woman couldn’t quite tell if the man was after her beauty and personality or if it was her self mutilation. His obsession was sick, but something inside of her kept coming back for more. If you are wondering, this “sad girl” is me. The man, well, I will never mention his name.

I'm Not The One

This is a love ballad of devotion, passion and desire. Have fun with it and make it your own, feel free to make minor adjustments to the lyrics as needed to make this song work for you. It was defiantly written with a country sound in mind but feel free to make it work for you.

The last tear

By Christopher Van Name


You can’t help someone who won’t help themselves and take ownership of their own life, their own decisions, and live with the consequences of their actions. There comes a time when you have to detach with love.

The Sun

By Howard Aronson


The song is about war despair no light at the end of the tunnel. And it's all because the sycophants, the people who look down on us for their own gain, as they rule the world. The sky is dark there is no sun there is no warmth there is no hope. The sky is just basically a roof that keeps out the light and if I ever see the light again it will be short-term. They will always be sycophants that come along and take control. It's been like that since the start of time. This lyric is very abstract, and there's a lot of ways you can interpret it. Even I'm having a tough time explaining why I wrote it and what it all means.
