What have we here?
Questions again?
Are we triple dry-hopped and double bocked inside that brain?
You poor young lad,
You curious thing,
You have the answers, losing them now as you're staring at me!
You're all tied up, in a room of smoke,
admiring knots of sturdy rope.
You look in the corner, it's the strangest thing,
a man of dirt, and gold, and dust,
it's the Homeless King.

Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
I think I might recognize your face from some long distant time before...
Before...
Before I thought these thoughts of single minded domination...
oh...
Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
Now I think I know your face, your smile, the soft intention of your touch...
That touch
You were that girl I knew before I got lost looking for control...
I just don't have, Control anymore,
No
You were that girl I knew before I got lost looking for control...
I just don't have, Control anymore,
Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
Cherry Blossom Society, Never Question, reality.
Cherry Blossom Reality, Never Question your society.

Lawrence

Who the hell are you? Riding through,
Lookin all mad like you could bite yourself,
Son of a bitch grin, dusty black hat,
face all puckered up like a wet sheepskin in your lap.
I've got my eye on you through a three way lense,
checkin off the list of ways to make you dead,
sippin your whiskey like it might be my last,
this here's Lawrence and I'm here to kick your ass.
At first a lemon-aid with a spritz of gin,
then I get to wishin I could drown my sins,
I drink your tequila as I watch the rain,
this here's Lawrence,
what the hell's your name?
I'm Lawrence, you son of a bitch, couldn't trust you as far as I can throw you,
I'm Lawrence, your about as welcome as a skunk at a square dance,
I'm Lawrence, mad enough to steal the coin off a dead man's eye,
I'm Lawrence, you son of a bitch, eatin off the same plate as a rattlesnake.

Shy

Some beginnings have no end, intentions fossilized,
Kept from thinkin bout what I meant, an idea un-actualized.
Your face will change tonight, like every night before like this,
I became indistinct,
I became useless.
I am shy, I don't know you, don't know why,
I am high, trapped in my ribs,
in my mind.
I'll always return, to gather confirmations,
that despite my design,
the stars just won't align,
and even if they did, who's to say they'd give a shit?
They'd probably hand it off to someone who had a hint of a spine.
I am shy, I don't know you, don't know why,
I am high, trapped in my ribs,
in my mind.
In my mind, I swim, I dive, I find, no "why", to why I'm like this.
In my mind, I swim, I dive, I find, no "why", to why I'm like this.

GAMMA PAW Fort Collins, Colorado
With influence garnered from 1970s heavy metal bands like Black Sabbath, ‘80s and ‘90s alt rock, Middle Eastern melodies and Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive,” GAMMA PAW is an American musical patchwork. Jacob Wayne funks up the bass and croons over Brandon Shockey's bombastic bluesy riffs and buttery tones. ... more
