The Transient

A solo punk band with songs ranging from politics to social issues to evolutionary biology.

Lacking any real musical talent, I decided to use Punk-o-Matic to create some generic punk backgrounds to the various songs I had written. Recorded at low quality through a computer microphone, the songs are not musical masterpieces but the lyrics are still strong. Give it a listen, you might enjoy it.

Lyrics

I can see the blood on your wrists,
And the fantastic panic in your eyes,
What teenage angst could have led to this?
A miserable melancholy of demise.
Mere acquaintances were all we were,
Light cynicism dribbled forth and back,
Yet your departure leaves me more than sore,
A life so stygian that even light was black.

I’m begging and I’m pleading that you don’t end it all
Don’t teter over the fulcrum in your emotional see-saw
Don’t end it all!  Woah…

Jilted and jaded, you’re on the brink,
Of a complete, irreversible self collapse
Too much is wanting, a great missing link
This black hole engulfing a great relapse.
And so you hang on to this cliff by a thread,
And ever so slowly the line’s stretching thin,
Let go just a little and you’ll wind up dead,
The one that betrayed you, just forget him.

I’m begging and I’m pleading that you don’t end it all
Don’t teter over the fulcrum in your emotional see-saw
Don’t end it all!  Woah…
