I was an evil child I tore apart and pissed on everything I wanted It's all right it's all right You can be your evil self if you like I was a wandering soul discarding anything and anyone at all It's all right It's all right You can forgive your evil self if you like I'm all right I'm all right Me and my evil self feel just fine Miles and miles Miles and miles of saints all around Miles and miles Miles and miles of dirt underground I was executioner I used my ax to get a-head I was sloth spectacular sinking into the very essence of blah blah blah Miles and miles Miles and miles of saints underground Miles and miles Miles and miles of dirt all around

You Will Not Die Alone 02:20
lyrics

Hear the phantom cheer from a yesteryear that time had never made Feel the fountain of tears from the tender years running down your face You will not cry alone You couldn't cry alone I'm with you every day Upon a pillow cold, T-shirts in an old coat somewhere tucked away You can't dream of retreat to sleep in city or trees, the chill has come to stay You will not lie alone You couldn't lie alone I'm with you every day And there's a dark cold place to go Just like the bottom of a lake And when you're gone You're gone forever But only drowning men would complain You will not die alone You couldn't die alone I'm with you every day

about

There are probably 30 different versions of You Will Not Die Alone recorded over the last five years, none quite hitting the spot. Some had accordions, some with nylon-string guitar, some all organ. This version is closest to what I envisioned. Saints All Around, by contrast, has only one other version: the original acoustic guitar demo. Chronos Versus the Charioteer is an outtake from the larger yet-unreleased song called Chronos Advises the Charioteer, in which the Time Titan instructs Apollo to take to the sky. Leypold ... I'm not sure what to say about Leypold other than I find it immersive and meditative.
