lyrics

I said I'm gunna throw you away
'Cause if you're gunna run you should pay.

We've been trying all this time to clean out the dirt from your mind.
A single cell can jump-start decay.
A single cell can bring down the day.

You think because you're kind you'll be saved?
I'm never gunna let you get away.
And he won't be the last to lose the way.
So darling take notes and be afraid.
The sun will come and he'll be done.

Poor man, broken, put your face on display.
Regret that bet, who you gambled with today.
And you will pay.

Scratch that name up on the line,
It's already known that we don't have the time
To be sheltering every Judas in our midst
And we'll be wandering aimlessly
Until we reckon with your wandering eyes.

A single cell can jump-start decay.
A single cell can bring down the day.

Central
by thermal features

Thermal Features has some of the most soothing (and jarring) music I've ever heard on a solo bass. Each piece is like a little portrait, deep in sound, but satisfying in its brevity. Dead Kings of Norway

Crystals in the Deep
by Crystals in the Deep

Crystals in the Deep is the other band that I make music with. It's darker and more laid back than Dead Kings of Norway. So far it's just the one album but we'll be writing another soon. Dead Kings of Norway
