Chimera #1

The Only Way

```song demo 1```
```song demo 2```

I'm the only lucky one
I guess I'll stay
Because the only way
is the lonely way

I'm the only lucky one
I guess I will
If you say I can
Then I guess I am

Frightful nights
Dark and chilly
Molested Cigarettes
Don't forget
Our love

Maybe
It's okay
to dream.

The Day Has Arrived

```song demo```

I can't let go
I'm too tangled in this
Not another sunny day that I missed
And the record plays on just one side
but its alright

When the lights go down
Its hard to resist
If I can't have you and I can't have this
I'll yell against the night
another late one

Didn't I try
Didn't I try
When the morning is outside
Didn't I try

What's the purpose
of running up the white flag
If I don't act now, I'll surely be had
It's tough to get to know you
but I still do

so when morning comes
Its bringing it back
For another sunny day to attack
the song of we're alright
we're alright

Didn't I try
Didn't I try
When the morning is outside
Didn't I try
Didn't I try
Wake up and go outside
The day has arrived.

Nothing Matters

~Inspired by a friend~
```song demo```

I don't know what's worth the effort
It's been this way so long
I just can't stand the thought of someone
Telling me what's wrong

Because
Nothing
Matters
Anymore

You can't stop this hunger in me
I've watched it all unfold
It scares me now as I reflect on
Thoughts of getting old

Because
Nothing
Matters
Anymore

Whisper softly what you fear
I calm with one regret
That I can't love you like I oughta
Because I can't forget that

Nothing
Matters
Anymore

Perishable

```song demo```

One hit wonder
But she's your thunder
Wake up next to a storm
And you're a lot
Like the head of a knife

Pull her up but
She's no puppet
See the rings round her eyes
And realize
There's a person inside

Drowning out
In words and Shouting
Sinking under her skin
Can she survive?
Or can you save her life?

And I know that it's a process
But lately I think I'd rather die.
