Stinky Car 03:30
As I cruise In my stinky car I find ways around the obstacles of modern life On this trip On my placid trip Yes, my pessimistic attitude goes on the shelf ‘Cause you see It’s all temporary None of this Really matters As told by Mr. Mercury Ha ha ha, live the life It’s OK, live the life Optimistic attitude is what you wanna be Ha ha ha, live the life It’s OK, live the life Positive altitude is where you wanna be

Fantasy? 05:04
How would I find fantasy When every time I leave you, I’ve awoken from a dream? There you were White summer dress Out the blue And safe in the red Pandora Send me a signal I’m there for you Please don’t ghost again How would I find fantasy When every time I leave you, I’ve awoken from a dream? There you were White summer dress Out the blue And safe in the red Barbara Send me a signal I’m there for you Please don’t ghost again

Something crazy Something crazy Something crazy about you Something crazy about you that I don’t like It’s getting on my nerves It’s moving up my spine It’s picking at my conscience I’m losing peace of mind And pieces of my mind Oooh, Nessun Dorma Something crazy Something crazy Something crazy about you that I don’t like It’s getting on my nerves It’s moving up my spine It’s picking at my conscious It’s eating up my mind And killing it

To Embark 05:15
I keep believing that it’s shocking That it’s shocking that I’m leaving Believing there’s reason there And I can’t tell or believe it Would leaving leave a marking there Is it shocking that I’m leaving? Believe it when the sun come down When the sun come down When the sun come down ------------------------ My heart bleeds but there’s reason there It’s proven there I’ve seen Even if I freeze all alone I’ll stay all alone in season I’m weaving in the ‘who and where’ thread Is it shocking that I’m leaving? Believe it all around I’m leaving there I’m leaving reason -------------------------- Stepping through the clouds Shining at the gates
5.
My Horizon 03:34
My horizon Slices through the garden Nevermind how it started But people get broken hearted And I've been fighting I won't be forgotten But I'm torn in two in this violin That's been playing life's song I've got a problem Taking in everyone's venom Well they keep coming back again 'Cause they're still looking for heaven
6.
Violet 04:47
Something unsteady In the air’s mood I came to find My friend fast asleep His dreams uncoil Crown of shakra A color so true We call it Violet ------------------------ Now Violet surrounds me And duality fades Free from illusion Free in the haze His dreams uncoil Crown of shakra A color so true We call it Violet
7.
Cavin' In 03:49
Cavin’ in, cavin’ in These walls C-c-c-cavin’ in Suddenly I go down WHAT?! (psycho-analytical) HUH?! 1-2-3-4 ---------------------------- Cavin’ in, cavin’ in These walls C-c-c-cavin’ in Suddenly I go down WHAT?! (psycho-analytical) HUH?! Numb, to how I identify Numb, to how I identify Reason of time deserted Dehydrated, introverted Feels like I’m in the mirror stage Shatter the glass with all this rage The walls are cracking in too quick, I need a diagnosis My trains of thought gone from this cold psychosis
8.
Don’t tell no one So wildly I seize you You know that everyday is a one way run But I’d fly there to see you too And we fear the wake up Upon arrival Lifelines are ready So wildly I seize you You know that everyday is a one way run But I’d fly there to see you too Yeah, to see you too But I, can’t help, but run, the other way
9.
It's showtime Time to put your face on right You're heading home Tear apart the doctor's note I get the feeling every now and then I hear a voice Telling me what to do And every bit of the subtlety in the tone Telling me how I'm learning what to choose It's paving me the way I'm breaking through Nothing to say Nothing to lose
10.
Further Down 04:36
According to the pedigree They all look the same Toe to toe, and knee to knee Shape inflate And shape and build and build Purebred for productivity Sworn to an empty oath that never ends And it’s all for the GDP Here goes, further down the rabbit hole Here, go further down the rabbit hole We’ll go further down the rabbit hole We’ll go further down the rabbit hole Soaked in gold, your fingers whither The end of time Nations rule in plastic prayer They fear the ticking What did I want when I walked this way? Did the smiles from the board take my pain away?
11.
There's a woman lost at sea Calls me name hopefully She looks up ashore The one, the one thing she adores There is a cold side to me 'Cause I know time will set me free Well I walk down the shore Further down along the ocean floor
12.
Soliloquy 03:06
When I'm free of some time for some visceral soliloquy ...I picture myself in a mind far aligned from me and I plea what it means to be long as time guarantees Godsent misfortune ...deja vu Missa en aeternum Non est responsum What to do, what to do What to do, but join?

about

"Soliloquy" is a collection of songs that were conceived at random moments throughout the past 8 years. I have a massive archive of musical ideas I've been building since college. These are just a handful of them that, to me, have stood the test of time and were ready to be shared. I strive to make each song different from each other. The point is to make each composition live in its own conceptual world with its own unique colors and textures. All the songs are homemade, recorded and mixed entirely by myself, with the exception of the drums. Lyrically, some themes in the album include reflection, ambition, retreating, optimism, and the constant pressure on your nerves to capture a moment of inspiration. "Soliloquy" is just that – a soliloquy. It's my first time getting the thoughts and sounds in my head, out there to the world.
