oldmuz Love this track - so much that I did what it asked me to do.

Actually just been listening to the album again, and I really like it all. Particularly like 'Pay me...", "Well known weirdo", "Living with Psycho' and 'Pass me by".

I think "Genuinely interested" might be the best track of all, except the lyrics trouble me a bit. Favorite track: Pay Me For This (Pompous Version).

Pay me for this song, Won't you pay me for this song? Pay me for this song, Won't you play me all night long? Trying to make millions, And change the world for good, But I will fail miserably, In all known likelihood. Pay me for this song, Won't you pay me for this song? Pay me for this song, Won't you play me all night long? Frowning everywhere, Drowning in the air, Frozen to the things that once did seem so hard to bear. Pay me for this song, Won't you pay me for this song? Pay me for this song, Won't you play me all night long?

This is a thesis of a well-known weirdo, Take it out every time you go and see, normality. This is a thesis of a full-grown weirdo, Take it out every time you go and see, normality. This is a thesis that is meant for learning, Coming from a brain that's full of yearning, Tough acceptance is a well-known plight, Plaguing every person with it in their sight. Trying to see through what does seem needless, Then giving up as an attempt to free this, Heavy shackle choking my life out, Breathing life into my own fear and doubt. This is a thesis well-versed by shitloads, Often read by those at crossroads, And yet forgotten by the structured world, Lock yourself in place with everyone else. This is a thesis of a well-known weirdo, Take it out every time you go and see, normality. This is a thesis of a full-grown weirdo, Take it out every time you go and see, normality. This is a thesis that is dead and buried, Often reads the same but always varied, The research needed almost gave my life, And even now it will seem to cause me strife. And as I slowly repair my own psyche, It seems that life does things just to spite me, A clear path has a flood flow through, And now a muddied water clouds what to do. This is a thesis of a well-known weirdo, Take it out every time you go and see, normality. This is a thesis of a full-grown weirdo, Take it out every time you go and see, normality.

My Solstice 04:46
Well what the fuck can I call this? It's over and it's sorted, These feelings will remain, But somehow they've been thwarted. Well what the fuck can I call this? This burden seems enormous, These feelings will be changed, But after my own solstice. Well what the fuck can I call this? It's over and it's sorted, These feelings will remain, But somehow they're distorted. The world seems as dull as it could, And in some messed up way it seems that it's good, It's clear that all life is doubt, And it's not something that can be sorted out. Well what the fuck can I call this? It's over and it's sorted, These feelings will remain, But now they're not supported. Well what the fuck can I call this? This burden seems enormous, These feelings will be changed, But after my own solstice. Labels don't mean what they should, And in some messed up way it seems that it's good, It's clear how much life has changed, But it's nice to see how it was rearranged. Well what the fuck can I call this? It's over and it's sorted, These feelings will remain, But now they feel aborted. Well what the fuck can I call this? This burden seems enormous, These feelings will be changed, But after my own solstice.

Living with a psycho, Living with a psycho, Living with a psycho, Living with a psycho. Living with a psycho, It's the element that's in your mind, Living with a psycho, And I'm growing weirder all the time. Living with a psycho, You are talking to yourself again, Living with a psycho, And you seem to be your own best friend. Psycho in your mind, How do we get through it? The strangest sort of kind, Our minds get used to it, Living with a psycho, What's this sanity I'm s'posed to find? Living with a psycho, Am I missing all the warning signs? Psycho in your mind, You are the one who is, The strangest sort of kind, Always seeming clueless. Living with a psycho, A single member of a cult, Living with a psycho, If I die that is a good result. Psycho in your mind, Can't live without thinking, The strangest sort of kind, Until you start drinking. Living with a psycho, What's this sanity I'm s'posed to find? Living with a psycho, Am I missing all the warning signs? Psycho in your mind, How do we get through it? The strangest sort of kind, Our minds get used to it, Living with a psycho, A single member of a cult, Living with a psycho, If I die that is a good result. Living with a psycho, It's the element that's in your mind, Living with a psycho, And I'm growing weirder all the time.

It's the element that's in your mind, And I'm growing weirder all the time, You are talking to yourself again, And you seem to be your own best friend. It's the element that's in your mind, And I'm growing weirder all the time, Giving in to all the things they say, 'Cause it never mattered anyway. Living with a psycho-o-o.

Pass Me By 03:48
Bus went by, Well pass me by, I'll get home without you. Pass me by world, Pass me by, I'll live fine without you. Times change slow, But we change slower, Find my luck in need of, A seven leaf clover. Pass me by world, Pass me by, How could I ever doubt you? Pass me by world, Pass me by, I'll live fine without you. The fiction novels in my head, Right what I want to read, The fiction novels in my head, Have better lives than me. Live today or breathe tomorrow, Find your right way home, Give today be free tomorrow, Free as one can roam. Pass me by world, Pass me by, How could I ever doubt you? Pass me by world, Pass me by, I'll live fine without you.

It started at the beginning... It begins in a mysterious way. Elements begin to slowly creep in, doing so in such a way that may seem dull or unimportant. But the beginning is always of VITAL IMPORTANCE!... Most of the time anyway. Once you have completed your journey through the beginning, you will find that, eventually, the plot begins to thicken...
