What are you gonna do When I come for you What are you gonna say When you kneel and pray What are your words If they're your last Present or future Or is it the past You do me wrong I do you right You do me wrong I do you right You do me wrong I do you right Here we are On the edge of night One little push And you're out of sight You hang on To no avail You grasp air As you flail You do me wrong I do you right You do me wrong I do you right You do me wrong I do you right There's no justice If you don't fight You can knock me down But I won't lose my height You think you're alone And you're right I will come In the dead of night You do me wrong I do you right You do me wrong I do you right You do me wrong I do you right

I've been around The mouth of hell I took my chances But I never fell When times were tough My bones got tougher When jobs were rough My skin got rougher (it got rougher) Come on These ears have walls And my mind was closed My spine was torn And my heart exposed I took my chances And I lost and won I starred down The barrell of a gun (of a gun) Of a gun I had many bottles Of beer and wine I drank enough For the end of time My lights were low And my doors were shut I never backed down And I always got up (always got up) Always got up

Death Touch 03:23
I got my head Full of meth Full of heroin Full of death I lived in the woods I've been beat Woke up dead Staring at my feet Nonesuch Succumb Death Touch Death Touch Nothing Made me free Even jail Didn't cure me I go To bed But I wake up Dead instead Nonesuch Succumb Death Touch Death Touch

Eclipsed 05:40
It's cold and wet outside Chill right through the bone I sit and think about you 'Cause I'm all alone The snow keeps on falling The wind keeps on howling I drink a bottle of beer Wishing you were near Eclipsed Eclipsed I'm a eclipsed. Eclipsed Eclipsed I'm a eclipsed. I've got no one now To keep me company It's just this lousy weather Beating on me I hope that it will pass It just can not last What once was full Is now an empty glass Eclipsed Eclipsed I'm a eclipsed. Eclipsed Eclipsed I'm a eclipsed. You seek and you destroyed You came and you conquered I tried to put up a fight You turned day to night It's even darker now What little light is now gone Your shadow is too big Darkness for now on Eclipsed Eclipsed I'm a eclipsed. Eclipsed Eclipsed I'm a eclipsed.

Well my woman Took me to the grave Took me with that 45 Now I look Up at her With dirt in my eyes (in my eyes) My pine box Lays to rest As I rot and decay Now my soul Starts to rise As I fly, I fly away (I fly away) I fly to heaven So divine Then I fall from the sky I keep falling Through the earth I see hell as I cry (as I cry)

about

Do you need some DYSTOPIAN FOLK/BLUES? Songs about revenge, hardship, death, love gone bad & murder?

DYSTOPIAN FOLK/BLUES are songs that are based off of the stylings of murder ballads & grit. These are solo singer/songwriting songs played on an electric guitar to give a darker sound.

I always wanted to do a singer/songwriter album and this is what happens when you record in the loneliness of a Maine winter. With influences ranging from Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen & Townes Van Zandt, why sing Love Songs when you can sing Dystopian Folk/Blues?
