Thank you for your time
A shame about the way things had to go, so very slow
Reaching, falling from the light
Maybe just a sign
This skeleton cage is hung and dry, no life to find
Empty, filthy, unrefined
And as lightning shines above their heads
And shepherds fear the path they tread
The fear is very real, and hope is like a dream
Until their bodies found floating gently down the stream
It’s time
To walk again, and here reclaim what’s mine, to cross the line
Reaching, falling from the light
Look up; it looks back down at you.
Accept this weight upon your back, embrace the truth.
I take this fruit; it’s mine for the keeping.
My hand is swift, but Daddy’s still sleeping.

Useless Light

Amidst the silver wires the golden idol stands
While the booby trap awaits those money-grubbing hands
Everyone’s got their own voice; they've something good to sell
But the audience turns a deaf ear while they wave and wish you well
Magazines and blog sites pay ordinary men
To judge your life’s worth on a scale of zero to ten
They tell me it's pretentious, they say it’s got no heart
I’ll just tell ‘em that it’s jazz, and suddenly it’s art
The brother in the suburbs trades integrity
For album streaming, pocket change, and mediocrity
The journey of acceptance cost him everything
When the heat of the desert sun dried the creative spring
Useless light from spineless spite
Praise at morning what they blame at night
Content-free hypocrisy
Those who cannot will not be

The amber river flows downstream
As perception twists as it seems
I was a fool to think you were perfect for me
Ghosts of the past beg me not to go
Independence beckons me so
No one is to blame but all three victimized
I think of the grace to give you what you adore
But I didn't want to fake it anymore
Tucked in the crevasse of my shame
Never to pass on my name
The beginning of one life is the end of another
I think of the joy the child would put you through
But I didn't want to fight it over you

Clark's Secret Identity Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
reaching, falling from the light
Clark's Secret Identity recommends:
This is a toe-tapping, blood-boiling, ear-gasming, finger-licking slab of melodic hard rock from our friends in Thrillkiller! Check out this EP for sure!
go to album
Our own Shane's first "solo" effort. A gathering of home-brewed recordings of progressive rock songs while he was studying music in college in 2010.
go to album
Shane has a side project called NTSC Standard, where he samples only the finest music from the 80s/90s and turns it into something trippy. If you're open to quirky electronic music, check this out.

Basically a great album with top-notch songwriting... unfortunately bloated with annoying improvisations and other distracting noise, which wreck the wonderful musical arcs in an instant. As people sometimes say, "less would have been more"...
