made in ~40 minutes

Not very connected, but does feature various sections.

Empty plates and silver ghosts,
echoes in a hollow house.
Every prayer’s a poisoned toast,
I drink it down, I can’t get out.

I keep on feeding all my fire,
just to burn another night.

It’s feast or famine, nothing in between,
starving in the daylight, drowning in the dream.
You cut me open, I can’t taste a thing,
it’s feast or famine, every song I sing.

The hunger’s louder than the choir,
the silence sharper than the knife.
I keep on feeding all my fire,
just to prove that I am still alive.

Bless the table, curse the hand,
what I wanted turns to sand.

It’s feast or famine, nothing in between,
starving in the daylight, drowning in the dream.
You cut me open, I can’t taste a thing,
it’s feast or famine, every song I sing.

Made this using just a TON of things in my sample library

This is a chill downtempo piece built around Johnny Cash samples, and funky yet mildly distorted beats at 100bpm. The rest of the sounds compliment these 2 elements, including some fast arps, other samples such as a Edvard Greig sample and a Pheobe Cates sample, as well as a bassline, some other pad sounds, and other melodic oddeties which all flow in and out to make for a very chill and mellow piece. It's about being as relaxing as possible, as well as being funky as possible. Either way, it's quite smooth, quite mellow, but quite groovy at the same time. Enjoy!

Feeling lost at this table

Despite familiar walls

The people around me

It’s been too long

Pass the potatoes

I swallow them down

But with each starchy bite

There’s an itch in the crown

The vapid things I hear them say

The stupid wishes when they ask to pray

Sticks and stones may break the bones

But these words they break my brain

All the hate and the lies I want to deny

But there’s no way that I can cry

They’ll call me weak and call me soft

I once loved my home but now I cannot

It’s dinner time
