LYRICS: Sunrise Beams of dust illuminate my heavy eyes My heart ignites, today's the day that I decide To realise
Break the fast This feeling that I'm feeling here will never pass She's the one I'm meant to have She's the first To pique my thirst
The Day That Everything Changes Connection, redirection, my affection, predilection Hold my head high, this is now my Hold my head high, this is now my
There she comes A flutter in my chest as she sings her song I'm enchanted, as always I just float along, I belong
Now I ask A question I'll remember from now till my last And she answers like I knew
I could have written it I swear I'd dreamt it played out Just like this Everything I wanted Given to me on that day Deep in bliss
The Day That Everything Changes Ignition, my addiction, her elation, relaxation Hold my head high, this is now our Hold my head high, this is now our time

LYRICS: There, in your eye, fear disguised Is it really you?
What have I done to the one I once thought I knew?
Opposed by you, opposed by me Forced apart All these forgotten days All this is swept away
Your mind, so malleable Your soul, controllable Your fate, so breakable Your life, so endable
I reach out through to get to you Pierce your heart All these forgotten days All this I take away
Forget me
You won't recall what I've done to you I'll break them all to let go of you Opposed by me and opposed by you Broken apart, incomplete are youBluescreen - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2022-02-25 | Check out Bluescreen on Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/agouldmusic/bluescreen

LYRICS: What have you got to distract me, retract my eyes I bathe in apathy, my energy and smiles are just lies Could this be the end of us
I'm not responding, life has left my soul it seems I'm in a trance, I'll keep staring at the blue screens I'm afraid and so alone So alone
I've got my life, my love, my hope, my everything is mine So tell me why I can't get out of bed in the mornings on time Is it me, or is it you?Paradise - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2022-02-25 | Check out Paradise on Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/agouldmusic/paradise
Written and performed by Adam Gould Album art by Ben Hirst
LYRICS: (I. Discovery) Rumour is a fickle mistress It's a living, parsing through the chaotic noise and finding what to seek Terrified and losing insight, someone gives a glimpse of something Something I can't resist to have a peek
Searching for a reason to carry on Hoping for a sign that it's never gone Begging for a reason to sing her song Screaming at a life she had forgotten long ago
Curious, I get in my car I have to see what is going on over there See what drove her so mad Drawing nearer I can hear Whispers on the corner of my consciousness telling me to pack it in
Seeing all these things that I disbelieve Feeling all these things that were never me Getting closer with every street Holding on to all that I can call me but it's hard
Horror, before me Entranced, enraptured Where is the centre? I don't know if I should stay
(II. Whispers) Instrumental
(III. Avalanche) Help me Losing myself I reach for my memories Stop this Fog getting close, who or what has done this? Bodies Held in a pose, suspension a twisted form He sits Staring at me, eyes buried behind my brain
Whispers Teetering on the edge of my psyche Freefall Feeling my heart break with every moment Struggle Fight for one more thought that I can call my own Gunshot Rings through the air as I pull the trigger and let it all go
(IV. Miasma) Bleeding as a quake travels through the air Clutching to my chest as I feel the fear Yearning for a space between you and me Kneel down at the feet of the thing you see Lost your individuality Connect and surrender yourself to me Revenge for the path that lies there before Your soul will be one with ours forever more
(V. Totality) The day that everything changes Completion, our deletion, exultation, desecration Hold our heads high, this was once our Hold our heads high, this was once our paradiseOmniscient Watchers - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2022-02-25 | Check out Omniscient Watchers on Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/agouldmusic/omniscient-watchers
Written and performed by Adam Gould Album art by Ben Hirst
LYRICS: Power overwhelming I can feel them ever watching I don't understand this Why are they all out to get me?
Omniscient Watching me Omniscient They are watching me
In this hell I forge you With my will I break you You're like me, I'm with you Twist your soul, cut right through We are one in my cage I hold you as we rage All confined to one whole I lash out, I control
Written and performed by Adam Gould Album art by Ben Hirst
LYRICS: Did you ever want to listen to me cry To me cry Watching, waiting, can't help fading, gone astray Gone astray
Don't need to feel this numb I need to feel someone
Come here, taste me, I won't hurt you, just let go Just let go I can take you, bend you, break you, this I'll do This I'll do
Don't need to feel this numb I need to feel someone in my head Won't ever feel this numb We all will be as one
Sold my soul to demons but I'm doing fine Doing fine Tasted nectar to feel better and I do And I do
Don't need to feel this numb I need to feel someone Won't ever feel this numb We all will be as oneSuicidal Wildlife - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2018-03-14 | Please allow me a bit of pretentious self-indulgence...
LYRICS: If I keep moving to the pounding shout The drum in my heart will be drowned out Flail and forget Ignore the regret 'Til I feel up to one more bout
If I stopped dancing for just one beat The gates would swing open at my feet A bottomless hole That will swallow my soul So I won't dare to take my seat
I'm a slave to my feelings I can't face them down But I can surpress them Pushing them underground
The more I clench my grip The more falls through the cracks I almost let it slip But this heart will not attack
Burned far too late To try the fool's repeat And so now I will wait For the flame to dull its heat
Tell me why would I throw it away and launch into disaster? Tell me why would I dare to fall in love? Tell me why do we leap before we look and fall apart? Why should I submit?
The animal and the mind Always seem so misaligned
We're all suicidal wildlife Running madly 'til we die Suicidal wildlife Bleeding badly with closed eye We listen to our dreams No matter what they mean We leap so that we fall And life will take it all
Tell me your stories of magical wonder A myth, delusion A tale, a legend to ponder
But heaven turns to hell and it freezes over A laugh, exuberant Becomes a hollow picture
You're all left shattered, bereft and morose What do you expect when you let someone get so close Left alone, no one to witness Love is just another mental illness
Use me like a fool Discard me like a tissue I want to be a tool I need to be an issue
The animal and the mind Always seem so misaligned
Won't you take away my pain 'Cause I can't stand here in the rain Let the oceans boil away Let the world end on this day
Flooring their pedals 'til the world falls away Electing their monsters who watch what they say The cruelty of man is a dangerous thing But the greatest of demons come from within
Suicidal wildlife Running madly 'til we die Suicidal wildlife Bleeding badly with closed eye We listen to our dreams No matter what they mean We leap so that we fall And life will take it allElection Day - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2018-03-14 | Everyone needs to let off a bit of steam about the world sometimes, right?
LYRICS: Engage our emotion Enslave our devotion Then raise a commotion And take what you grow
Does your fake outrage justify All the people who'll bleed and die? Do your false headlines compensate For the blind deciding our fate?
Turns out you can take control if you scream and kick up enough of a fuss Turns out you can get what you want, just write any old shit on the side of a bus Turns out that we're all insane if you look and think of enough pain to trust Turns out you can reap what you sow, just say anything that will incite their bloodlust
Masses called to you With unending hate As you told them to Now you've sealed their fate
Turns out there's an easy way if you pay a little money just to win Turns out you're electable, just behave like you've done and you will all again Turns out you're a hollow shell and you'll burn everything that you pledged to save Turns out you're the president 'cause you lied and betrayed everyone in your way
Masses called to you With unending hate As you told them to Now you've sealed their fate The polls closed for you And now you've become Bereft of a clue Lost sight of what is humanHeat of the Horizon - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2018-03-14 | So I've been rather busy for the past few months. Here's why.
LYRICS: I can't stay in this prison Your presence sends me away I can hold on no longer You're gonna send me insane some day
So I'm gonna I'm gonna go for a drive
Time to take back my freedom You've held it for far too long Staying in here will kill me I have to find a place I belong
So I'm gonna I'm gonna go for a drive
Drive till the petrol burns Until I can hear the roar of the engine again Feel all the wheels turn Drive till I can see the heat of the horizon once more
I'm gonna Break free You'll never Control me I'm gonna Break free And you don't Own me
Drive till the petrol burns Until I can hear the roar of the engine again Feel all the wheels turn Drive till I can see the heat of the horizon once moreHell Is Other People - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2018-03-14 | Well, sometimes it really is.
LYRICS: I'm done with this race Through with this place Get out of my face
You're all gonna rot Break off this plot I'll take what you've got
I call your bluff once again You only care for you You're all so self-absorbed You'll get what's coming to you This irritation you give Well you can take it back I don't want none of yours So stay the hell off of my track
Hell is other people Heaven is solitude Fall into introversion Turn from your attitude
People suck all your life out Desolate your soul They'll try to confine you And try to take control Free spirit running from me I cannot be bound You try to hold my chains But they cannot be found
Hell is other people Heaven is solitude Fall into introversion Turn from your attitudeSwings - Adam GouldAdam Gould Music2018-03-14 | A little bit of a different pace to the relentless minor keys.
LYRICS: Waking up to see If there's a bright day greeting me Hoping that I'm free today
I always go in blind 'Cause there's too much left to find Until I next go away
It's just swings and roundabouts Spinning out of control I try to break the cycle But I'm caught and I can't let go
Climbing up this height Or will I fall and lose my sight Praying that I'll stay okay
I'm holding on to this But it's a time limited bliss I'll fly 'til I fall away
It's just swings and roundabouts Spinning out of control I try to break the cycle But I'm caught and I can't let go
It's just swings and roundabouts And I will get on them all I'll jump into my future And I won't ever let go
