Diamond Jaw 06:08
Diamond Jaw Lyrics Get yourself a diamond A couple two or three Try to buy back my love with your money Baby, it’s a tragedy Now I’m rollercoaster Now I’m ferris wheel Now I’m nothing but a ride This is how I feel Get yourself together Get the fuck out of my face What kind of monster does the things that you do then try to walk back into my place?

Brute Squad 04:24
Brute Squad Lyrics They rang the warning bell before the city fell But you were arguing about the furnishings You let them breach the gate You let them seal our fate I’m sure you’re feelin’ fine I’m sure your pockets lined You oughta be deposed You oughta be dethroned You oughta decompose Like the ones you let die alone Don’t come round here talking your shit giving me lip about the problems that you somehow overcome you’re nothing but a fuckin bum I listen well, that dreck you tell no it don’t fool me for a spell no not one single tiny moment You may have fouled up all these fools and slathered up some salty spools of yarns you made them think are truths You made them think there’s more to you You made them think that you’re not cruel But dollar signs just make you drool white collar crimes are just the rule So now the time has come We’re gonna watch you run We’re gonna watch you squirm Devolve and watch you burn the bridges that you built over bodies and blood you spilt It’s gonna be so loud when the truth will out and when our work is done and we can feel the sun then we’ll go out and play and there’s nothing more that I need say

Super Hero 03:34
Super Hero Lyrics I dreamed I was a superhero from another world, fighting off the supervillains and rescuing my girl. He tied you to a railroad track the train was coming round. I saved you in the nick of time I shut the engine down before the crazy, evil scientist could execute his plan to smash apart the city square and spread fear through the land. I chased him to his hideaway, no chance of escape, But just before I struck him down he rolled the videotape. His henchmen found you once again and spirited you away. He locked me in a box so strong the walls I could not break. He dropped me in the ocean deep a thousand miles from shore, helpless in my seabed cage I wait forevermore. Past the point of madness I succumb to an evil rage A power I didn’t know I had it frees me from my cage With newfound evil energy I travel back in time I will stop my former self and live a life of crime I’ll kidnap all the innocents and nail them to the tracks Once my doppelgänger’s gone there’ll be no turning back I’ll lure him to my hideaway no chance of escape and with that selfless do-good gone I’ll finally get my way I’ll smash apart the cities till my power goes sea to sea and once I burn it all away I’ll lay my weary head down and I will dream.

Off My Feet 03:00
Off My Feet Lyrics I could be the lover you take home Or I could be the one you leave behind Grab me by the collar let me know Baby can’t you see? I need someone to sweep me off my feet Been this way since 1993 Baby it’s not you it is just me No surprise I grew up in my head Baby don’t you know? Babe I need to not be on my own I wish you would’ve walked me home I don’t want to go this way alone Don’t you know I tried everything to say? Well, everything other than to your face Baby can’t you see? Darling it’s just me I need someone to sweep me off my feet

about

MOON FACE - This collection of songs is a dark reflection of the confusion, insecurity, anger and vulnerability experienced during the pandemic days. Coming to the end of one part of your life and entering another. The theme of the EP is separate parts that have been cut, copied, pasted and stitched together. All these bits and pieces of ideas and music that have been mashed together to make something new.

DIAMOND JAW (track #1) - Two songs cut in half and pasted together. I wanted to take the heaviest music I’d written and match it with the most delicate. Lyrically its a response to a lover asking for redemption set against down-tuned, sludgy guitars and chaotic drums.

OFF MY FEET (track #4) - One of two love songs on the record. Off My Feet was put together from the pieces of another song nearly 20 years old. Its new and old at the same time.
