Blood

Time was thick yeah, I could feel it
Around the edges where the skin had become visibly faded
A moment of clarity knocked me off my feet
I could see the world
But I couldn't see myself in it
The light behind my eyes grew quiet
As helpless I witnessed the death of my rebellious youth
Did the machine that we raged against ever exist?
Impossible to tell if now we are a part of it
I want your blood
I'm just so bored with mine anymore
A cow that hates the chewing of her cud
I'd give anything to let you climb inside
The voice inside my head fell silent
As I experienced a rare and fleeting moment of peace
The numbers in my bank account and things I own
Stopped their endless screaming out for me
I want your blood
I'm just so bored with mine anymore
A cow that hates the chewing of her cud
I'd give anything to let you climb inside

The Greater Fool

Please don't
Don't worry about truth
Don't think about what's real
Just smile and take a bow
We all wait for fallen flowers
To take us 'round the rainbow
Where we're all lovers
We'll walk on water when we go
And if you told me that you thought you knew better
Then I'd be the greater fool
If you think
Think you know what you are
Consider what you'd carry
Just to carry on
We all pine for fallen flowers
To take us 'round the rainbow
Where we're all lovers
We'll walk on water when we go
And if you told me that you thought you kew better
Then I'd be the greater fool
Funny
You'd force a million strangers
But not your sons and daughters
To walk the road laid down
I'll take you 'round the rainbow
Where we're all lovers
We'll walk on water when we go
And if you told me that you thought you knew better
Then I'd be the greater fool

Disappointing Heart

When I talk about love
Words I'm mostly making up
And I wonder if our time will ever cease
When I think about you now
I could bloom into a flower
I've waisted every hour that I've traveled through
Now I'm tired of giving in
Like some yellow bellied singer
I could never think about you like a friend
I want to fly away
Like some old discarded warrior
Who I don't think I could ever be again
So I just walk into my tower
With my disappointing heart
And all I want is her to tell me what it means again
When we talk about love
When I think of making love
The common imagery of flowers feels completely out of place
The light may come to rest on you like a diamond full of power
Forgotten in the corner when the shine fails to come through
Now I'm tired of falling short
Like a bad birthday magician
And an audience who's too kind to complain
I know I can't hide in bed
In a fortress made of pillows
But I think I'd like to try to all the same
But I just walk into my tower
With my disappointing heart
And all I want is her to tell me what it means again

The Singular Akron, Ohio
The Singular is a band that holds high the value of music as an experience and strives to make a good one for anyone who cares to listen. As a modest four piece rock band they produce a sound that can be described as cavernous and overwhelming. They triumph the art of storytelling through song, and always invite their audience along with them on a musical journey. ... more
