Non-Entity 03:20
Non-Entity The sky is not the same Shade of blue Every little thing I believed isn't true Missing in a maze of monochrome How did I get here? How can I go home? The echoes in my eyes Of all they used to see Burning down the world The ashes and debris And all that's left of me Non-Entity Try to stand in line Try to obey The ghosts of what I was Keep getting in the way Staring at the sun Blinded by the light Now I'm afraid I'm fading out of sight The echoes in my eyes Of all they used to see Burning down the world The ashes and debris And all that's left of you And all that's left of me All have washed away Non-Entity

Post Blue 02:57
Post Blue It's in the water baby It's in the pills that bring you down It's in your bag of golden brown It's in your frequency It's between you and me It's in the water baby It's in the pills that pick you up It's in the special way we fuck It's in your family tree It's between you and me Bite the hand that feeds Tap the vein that bleeds Down on my bended knees I'd break the back of love for you

Purple People Well, hey - do you do judo when they surround you? A little mental yoga, will they disappear? It's grim but never dubious as motives go One thing she always promises... a show Thunder wishes it could be the snow Wishes it could be as loved as she can be These gifts are here For her, for you, for me Watch me be this other thing and never know If I'm marooned where the purple people go Then lily white matricide from vicious words It doesn't leave a scratch so therefore no one's hurt Thunder wishes it could be the snow Wishes it could be as loved as she can be These gifts are here For her, for you, for me On and on, the nurses make it clear Just when you escape, you have yourself to fear A restaurant that never has to close Breakfast every hour, it could save the world So, hey - do you do judo in your finery? An angel's face is tricky to wear constantly Thunder wishes it could be the snow Wishes it could be as loved as she can be These gifts are here For her, for you, for me

about

These covers, all by formative influences of mine, were originally released as singles in the lead-up to my Amethyst Deceiver LP. I consider this that album's companion piece.
