Atro City

When I needed you most, You said, “No way!” When I was my full self, You didn't stay. I shrank and shrank So you'd come back. Became half of me, But you cut me no slack. Your reality is built from Collusion and illusion Created with a guy— Your friend, my enemy. Your eyes no longer see Me except as an atrocity. My words are meaningless Since I mean less to you. Who dug this six-foot hole I'm at the bottom of? Can't climb my way out. The walls are too slippery. Your mind is all trickery. My only options are To lay down and die Or learn how to fly The fuck away. The parts of me that don't fit Inside your pine box, You smell as rotting. They're blood-filled And thumping with pulse. What's dead to you is alive. What's dead to you is alive. What's dead to you Is alive, and others feel it. They accept it, respect it, respect me. Respect me. Fuckin' respect me. But you can't 'cause I'm not … I'm not … I'm not, I'm not … Who you’ll ever believe I am.

Words: Steven Hyde. Music: Etsuko Ishii and Steven Hyde. From the album The Polarity (from the fictional world of Jackie Stargazer).

At the request of @bacandy​, here are the lyrics to ...

Singularity Redux

She did escape, Didn't succumb to The fucked world's delirium.

How rich is she? Full of joy and courage, And the love She shares with so many.

She did escape, Doesn't have to dream That people won't leave Her stranded upstream.

Who'd she take in? Friends, family, and me. My love no longer dies ev'ry night. No longer dies ev'ry night.

I choose not to lose you, My present to the past.

I choose not to lose you, Sun that reignited.

I choose not to lose you, The whole truth to denial.

I choose not to lose you, The one loss I can't lose.

The one loss I can't lose.

I chose not to lose you, The one loss I can't lose.

You are never too far gone, No matter how far I've gone.

I am never too far gone … We are never too far gone ... Anymore.

Words and Music: Steven Hyde. (In the fictional world of Jackie Stargazer.)

By Wounds Not Defined

Ran a road fourteen years long. The wrong turn Got him lost. There was no turning back. In a paid-for motel room, She paid the price For his bad intuition. Her own compass was stolen.

Confused, they searched for true north. Followed the wrong blazing stars. Then one intervened, Hurled them at each other. Their cores collided, Dying, reignited! True north lit their path, Compass quit spinning! Roots in the Earth, Their stars sharing a sky! (Oh, oh, ohhhh!) They're shining, free! Bright! Warm! Free! They traveled the ground, On parallel but diff'rent roads To avoid shoving the other Toward a dead end. Then thieves attacked them. With knives of the past To steal their future. Guess what, assholes—you failed. And their roads converged, Became one and the same! The choices that split them Couldn't kill their today! Light can bend oddly, But theirs is entwined. Embracing the night And by wounds not defined! (We're} Shining. Bright! Shining! Free! They're shining, free.

We''re free. Free.

Words: Steven Hyde and J. Burkhart. Music: Etsuko Ishii. From the album Self-Sustaining (in the fictional world of Jackie Stargazer).

It’s All All Right

It's all right. You don't have to be all right. It's all right. Bad days will come, And bad days will go, And it's all all right. It's all all right. Joy isn't a constant state. Healing isn't linear. Life doesn't always play nice. Wins and losses don't always Depend on a roll of the dice. Get a seven, and up pops the Devil. Hell has paved roads through heaven. That don't mean you're going down. Mind and body shoots to protect us from danger. Quick trigger. Heavy recoil. It vibrates through our bones, But we'll rebound. We'll rebound. We'll rebound until the next shot, And we'll rebound again. The target of becoming whole Is riddled with holes, And it's all right. It's all right. You don't have to be all right today. It's all right. Good weeks will go, And good weeks will come, And it's all all right. It's all all right. No matter how you feel, Joy won't be left behind. Healing isn't linear, all right? All right.

Stargazer

“I gazed up at the sky “And found the unexpected: “A star so bright “It lit my dark crevices, “But I'm just a dull rock.”

“Tried to reach you, stretched myself, “And the dirt buried me in “A premature tomb, ghastly. “Your light burned it away. “But maybe I don't want to be exposed.”

Imagine if you were the star, my friend, And not the stargazer. “Still too far away.”

“Distance is equal.” Time and space can't defeat us.

“I'm one of a million “Lost fools who look to you “To guide their ships to safety.”

You're one in a million. Stargazer, ever think the stars Are gazing down at you?

“Denial is the best defense. “Shut my eyes and crash my ship “So I'm the only thing that splinters. “Just a dull rock, “Breaking up into dirt.”  

Imagine if you were the star, Mo shíorghrá, And not the stargazer. “Still too far away.”

“Distance is equal.” Time and space can't defeat us. “Still too far away.”

“Distance is equal.” Time and space can't defeat us.

“I'm just a rock.” Rock-star, star-rock? No way.

We're human, not less or more. And time and space won't defeat us.

The Revolving Door

The more I fight to be heard, The less I'm heard. The more I fight to be seen, The less I'm seen. The more I fight to be understood, The less I'm understood.

Is isolation the only solution?

Call me sensitive. Call me insensitive. I'm neither, But you'll hear What you want to hear. Stuck in Erebus, The exit to Earth comes 'Round and 'round again, But I can't find a way out. This revolving door Is my Tartarus torture: To see the light come and go, Come and go, Never to touch it, Never to escape. ...

I escaped.

Climb Up

Have I done enough to live, Or is death a life sentence? I tore down my prison brick-by-brick, but the bars Stay shut in my skull. I left love once to bring death when love needed love My sun settling scores, setting in blood, While my love, my star, was falling down. Justice turned to wrath, destroyed ... Destroyed my way back to you! So how do I fly up To where you shine, alive? Shame's a merciless Executioner, Chopping my wings.

Chopping my wings! You say take the other road, Away from my self-hated. Absolution can't be given I won't accept. So how do I fly up To where you shine, alive? Shame's a merciless Executioner, Chopping my wings. We died and rose again 'Cause we beat hell united. Won't let the demons keep me from heaven. I'll climb up.

I'll climb up!

I'll – Fuck that. I'm shining with you already.

Silence Breaker

Overload. Fault detected. Nothing said. Reset, reset. Break the silence. Speak the violence. Don't keep it in your head. Interrupt the circuit (the circus). Carrying that load will break you. High current is currency.
