Dhaka-dice
This is not as much a side-project to Fungus (since Fungus IS pretty much my solo project anyway) as it is sort of a test tube where I try out my ideas to see what they sound like with full instrumentation. Most of these songs are written for Fungus and will be played live and maybe even recorded in a real studio some time in the future, so a lot of the songs are really "Fungus" songs that are complete even before the other members have even heard them. You could say they are to demo recordings what regular demo recordings are to professional studio recordings. I also use the pseudonym "Dhaka-dice" when making hip-hop beats. But I'm not sure I can upload all my beats, as some of them contain samples that haven't been altered enough for me to be able to call them my own. Anyways, if you're curios about what I'm doing, feel free to listen.

Story behind the song
There are two things that inspired me to write this song. First of all, a lot of young (and old) people are not feeling well at all these days. Suicide is the most common cause of death among young people today and many engage in self-mutilation and other forms of self-destructive behaviour. So this song is a lament about depression, but it's also the first song in which I've excluded the words "I", "me", and "you" (and also "we", "us" and "them"). The word "you" does appear once though. It ends the song, showing that it's author care about you.
Lyrics
Trying to quench this life within Instead of letting some light in Always claiming to need no help Deceiving but oneself Inside not feeling well Do not even want to tell No place to run, no place to hide Some resort to suicide Humans are greedy Humans are dirty Humans are evil Humans are filthy Humans are downers Humans don't dare Humans build a moat around themselves because they are scared Rather die, to proud to cry Eyes are tired and mouth is dry Stress in chest and hand around throat Aggression act as emotional moat Down the spiral, down the jaw Mental glaciers, there's no thaw Depression seems to never pause Oppression by the anti-laws Humans are greedy Humans are dirty Humans are evil Humans are filthy Humans are downers Humans don't care Humans build a moat around themselves because they are scared Humans are cowards Humans are weak Some find pleasure in bringing others misery Humans are sensitive Most humans are not well Most are too afraid to step out of their shell Aren't you?
