about

Someday I will shed my worldly wants. Until then, I will write songs about not being able to achieve that goal.

lyrics

You want to know
how could anybody try so hard?
you cannot go
until the liberated cross assured

It's inhumane to watch them suffer
and all the rage to help another
we're building lives in chasing better numbers
and so remain the Bodhisattva

You have to share
the radiance is burning at the core
transcendent stare
immovable but can you be so sure?

It's inhumane to love another
and all the rage to live and suffer
we're building lives and chasing better numbers
and so remain the Bodhisattva

about

Marchers In Orange Portland, Oregon

Transcontinental transplant - CT/OR. Quirky, grungy, power-pop with weird sci-fi references and a bunch of hooks. From my earworm to yours.
