Mad Madam Em Eyemouth always soothes and fulfills the part of me that is eternally seeking out something new, something brilliant that I've never heard before. It's music destined for soundtracks as it inspires so much mental imagery and sparks the imagination. Favorite track: Stay quiet is all there is to it.

1.
As a child with nowhere to heal I Had to cut loose of everything Threw it in the ocean of the unknown Never thought it'd grow a life of its own The harder I tried to turn the running boat The greater the strength of the undertow In the early years it all was spawned And now it's living a life of its own The swelling waves of the cold black sea Still undoubtedly carries me I dare not look down into the dark below The current has got a life of its own
2.
Told to laugh Made to cry Told to stay calm Made to scream Told to be proud Made to fear Told to step into the light Made to go backwards There is but one way to go Must keep the machine running Don't need your push or sweating backs Stay quiet is all there is to it And when the machine gets ugly When it stinks and you can't bare to look Just close your eyes and lay down to rest Stay quiet is all there is to it
3.
I know what I need to do When the shadows impose on me But as I'm about to begin It takes hold and I give in It's never like the old stories Cause the linearity is inevitable It's like hitting your fist to a wall of stone There is pain And the pain reveals Something There are gods putting frightening masks on my face In the womb I was slaved Hey what's the problem And behind my eyes All the stars fall down And I am pitch black And the beard man tries to run me over And the beard man tries to run me over Tried to deny my fears Tried to replace my thoughts hah Left with a stinking taste Of lies And at the opening of the gate We're lucky we don't know what we will walk through I wish I could unfurl this Disgusting mess of thoughts Of My thoughts And behind my eyes All the stars break down And I am pitch black And you hit my face And I fall from earth Though we dream the same dream I'm not you And you're not me
4.
Swelling Contracting Swelling Contracting The sunshine Streams through the tall shrubs Found something sharp To open up the skin Slithering out and Leaving the past Leaving the parasites to die Let it all mould away Crawl into the water of release Crawl into the water of release Crawl into the water of release Something's coiled inside me Breathing deep within me Something's coiled inside me Crawl Into the water of release
