Rocket 04:14
Here I am again Looking at the sun Never let it go Here I am again Rocket to the sun Let everything go Here I am again Staring at the sun Never let it go Here I am again Rocket to the sun Never let it go What are you What are you Trying to get some rest Lots of things to do Long into the night Sun is shining bright Rocket to the moon Are you looking down (What’s there... air) Spinning round the room Watching what I do Can I get a break Can I get with you (What’s there) I can see you too What are you (What’s there... air) What are you Here I am again Looking at the sun Never let it go Here I am again Rocket to the sun Let everything go Here I am again Staring at the sun Never let it go Here I am again Rocket to the sun Never let it go What are you What’s there... air What’s there... air What’s there What’s there air The following information is classified This photo is taken from the surface of the moon I don't understand. It's just a photo of the Sun Wait What are you

Red Room 05:01
I found myself in a red room Leather chairs and perfume Was it always this way? So it seems, I cannot say Well write it out And scratch it down Scream and shout And blame the sound So curse your luck And stick around Anyway It's awfully presumptuous of you to assume I haven't been here from the start After all I've been through How could you assume I have no heart I found myself in a red room My recollection is untrue Is it real? It isn't sure Who can say who's been here... The Vultures fighting in the street They kill each other for dead meat Red wine glistening on their beak Everyday It's awfully audacious of you To assume you always know what's best After all you've been through You should know you couldn't pass the test It's awfully presumptuous of you To assume that you would be enough After all I’ve been through... Every day, all the time, every night You make yourself sick trying just to get it right Clenching your teeth till you break the bone When your asleep there's no one home I found myself in a red room I Found myself in a red room. I found myself in a red room Blood and Sweat Dripping through Get so tired everyday I can make it go away Well you can always try your best Give it all and never less What's it matter when you're dead and gone It's awfully presumptuous of you To assume I haven't been here from the start After all I've been through How could you assume I have no heart

Ague Maria 04:20
Ague Maria World revolving within a haze Living out it's final days Sipping sangria Cigarettes lollipops after care Strangled in the spider's snare I love the way you shake Even the grass you own is fake Rosy cheeks and shining lights Drag me through the streets at night. Peering through the haze Every action is a maze Moondust sparkles on your cheek Give me posion, give me sweets How could you do this to me, my darling Dear Hearing your voice in the darkness calling Ave Maria Yo necisita Won't you let me in Ague Maria Mi favorita c'est la vie my friend All the sounds you make As you struggle to relate Underneath the bloodied moon Body begging to consume Anchor in the lake Fingers drag you to your doom Underneath the overpass Angels filling up the room How could you do this to me, my darling Dear Hearing your voice in the darkness calling Ave Maria Mi favorita All of the things that I needed are sinking within Ague maria Yo necisita Baptize me in ... Time will take it all away. All the things you couldn't say Lord for a day What do you say Time will take it all away. All the things you couldn't say Lord for a day Time will take it all away. All the things you couldn't say Time will take it all away away

Dissapear 03:00
Round and round you go around And tell yourself there’s nothing you don't know You've been around a time or two so certainly by now you ought to know Well, little rabbit, run and pray, the ground may disappear before you know Your foot works only stable if there's nothing lurking down below. You've had your day and got away but when you're gone, I'm sure that you won't know You struggle for survival but you're fast and quick, and everything is slow And suddenly Your plucked away the ground is falling oh so slow You feel the wind and hear air, and suddenly, you wish you didn't know

Red Velvet 08:13
Oh, how far you are My most Precious Moon Overwhelmingly strong. Irresistible pull Your most velvety silk Stitches made with love. From these useless cadavers Who can't hold their own blood Red velvet today Oxidized tomorrow Red velvet's okay But what about tomorrow Are you un-satisfied With the things you've tried Are the times you've laughed Overshadowed by lies Red room Can you give me a clue Tell me what should I do today? Red room Will you shelter me too When the whole world burns away Take me within (Another sacrifice) Take me within (Another sacrifice) Take me within Open the door Into the room Are you aware What you consume Boken teeth Cavities And in your sleep When you're alone You clench your teeth You break the bone Are you un-satisfied With the things you've tried Are the times you've laughed Overshadowed by lies Red velvet today Is oxidized tomorrow Red velvets okay And what about tomorrow I wake up in the same old bed The walls and ceiling tinted red While crowds descend upon my bad They pool into my body Wrapped within her velvet Grace They crawl into my open face It isn’t me that’s out of place It all is for her body Red room Can you give me a clue Tell me what should I do today? Red room Will you shelter me too When the whole world burns away Eyes are on me Watching what they see Eyes on me eyes on me I woke in the night, my room tinted red I couldn’t move at all and there were figures round my bed I watched in horror, my body put in place As loved ones and strangers, crawled into my face

More Blood 06:23
All of folks and their empty cadavers March around the watch tower just waiting for their masters Do you try to resist, All the things that you missed or Overindulge. My mistake, twirl, and shake, let’s go out and dance again Walking much too far to get to where you parked your car Cities are for churches, all the people oughta starve. Capital gains. in your DNA Its true There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more more more How can you contemplate Ways to exacerbate Fan the flames and grin and shake And tie them to a burning steak And from the tickets take A bloody penny for the road It goes to fast to know I couldnt ever show Its all been programed in you head You reproduce and then your dead And as the bloodshed grows Its just a harvest for the moon There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more blood There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more more more [[And when the siren blows The velvet comes apart And you will see below Directly into my lost heart]] All the best amenities But there’s no time to use em Praying for a doctor that is cheap enough to choose him. Capital gains Like tides they are made By the moon There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more blood There's only ever gonna be more There's only ever gonna be more more more Produce more Blood Converging closer now An image coming into view Don’t close your eyes right now All eyes are focused on the moon It’s getting nearer now Her face is coming into view Maria will i die Everything’s red inside my room. Converging closer now An image coming into view I cannot hear a sound My eyes are focused on the moon

The hazy sheets, my forlorn bed Countless places in my head I’ve seen the past, my future too I heard the bells, still ringing through I’m running late, I’m out the door I lie awake, 6 hours more I can’t escape what I’ve become There's nowhere left for me to run Oh my guitar pick has fallen away Its gone forever now, its gone I'm up so early Whys it feels so late I close my eyes and disappear Anywhere but here I only wish that you were near Anywhere but here I cannot seem to stay awake Won't you wish it all away Just 40 winks, and 40 more Wont you take me anywhere but here Oh my God Anywhere but Here Oh my lonely God anywhere over here Oh my God Anywhere but Here Oh my crescent God I woke up in my old bed My parent’s breakfast in my head I worried I was running late But i live in another state I saw people that don’t exist Hotels, commercials, diamond bits So desperately it comes undone I cannot be the only one I cant be the only one I close my eyes and disappear Anywhere but here I only wish that you were near Anywhere but here I cannot seem to stay awake Won't you wish it all away Just 40 winks, and 40 more Wont you take me anywhere but here Everyone’s a genius and everyone’s a whore Praying to their bosses trying to earn a little more I'm up so early Whys it feels so late Oh my God I want to be Anywhere but here Drifting endlessly Anywhere but here Close my eyes and reappear Float through walls both far and near The moon reveals my biggest fear When I awake... I’ll still be here Oh my god, anywhere but here Oh my lonely god, anywhere but here Oh my God. Anywhere But Here Oh my God. Anywhere But Here Oh my God. Anywhere But Here Oh my God. Anywhere But Here

I'm sending a signal out Is anyone there I’m casting a single thought I'm low on air I'll need a miracle To pull me through Whatever you're gonna do Please do it soon Soon Soon I see eternity Before my eyes The past and the future So small in size I'm sending a signal out It's far too late I know I'm not coming back So please don't wait You can ostracize and compromise me None of that is new Everyone is on the brink just trying to get through All these shitty calculations distract me from you I am out of air and on the brink I'm never never never Reaching you I'm sending a signal out Is anyone there The gages are going red I'm low on air I'm sending a signal out Does anyone care The moon is coming out I know your there It's coming down It's coming down Its ticking down It's takin everything All of the sky She takes it all away Is this alright It's takin everything All of the sky She takes it all away Into the night You can ostracize and Compromise me None of that is new Everyone is on the brink So desperate to pull through All these shitty politicians Distract me from you You and I, a perfect pair We're never never never pulling through I'm sending a signal out Is anyone there The gauges are all on red I'm low on air I'm sending a signal out Does anyone care

Do you know about the fight between the sun and the moon It happened long long ago And there was nothing Anyone could do But who do you think originally held the light In a fight between gods who could possibly Ever be right It doesn't matter now And it didn't matter then We're just pawns to use And when I think about the moon I can feel something shifting within You know that all this didn't exist back then It didn’t exist Before the moon you know once in a while once in a Blue Moon After a while I can hear you too Calling to me Calling me out Calling me in Once in a true blood moon Once in a true blood moon once in a while once in a Blue Moon After a while I can hear you too Calling to me Calling me out Calling me in Once in a true blood moon Once in a true blood moon

Getting home early 11:00 p.m. I feel like I can do anything, but I can't I fall to the ground Sinking down deeper into my own skin I feel like somethings missing again but it ain't Just Moving along Call me after everyone chimes in Don't they know that I can't do anything Will I ever get to the end Well, One step at a time And just for tonight I don't have to do anything Keeping it classy and keeping it smooth The guy in the mirror is certainly more than I'd choose If I spun again Dropping my eyelids and dropping the ball I'll take care of me, and you'll take care of you after all Call me after everyone chimes in Giving up always feels so American Grit your teeth and get to the end Well, you've given it all You're trying your best It'll have to be good enough Ever After all the laughter After everything fades away Every day is getting faster Don't forget to call my name Call me after everyone chimes in Don't they know that I can't do anything Will I ever get to the end Well, One step at a time And just for tonight I don't have to be anything Trying my best to stay in my bed I wish that I could quiet my head, but I can't Still sticking' around Keeping the rhythm and keeping it brief Everyone always has something they wish they could speak But they can't

Oxidize and compromise just get me what I need Drowning in Euphoria just pumping the disease I don't got to think about it everybody needs (drugs money sex pain) Everybody thinks about it listen beg and plead (drugs money sex pain) Aren't you getting tired of all this. There's a war on terror, a War on Drugs. What's going to blow up in our face next You used to be a good girl Make your parents proud Now you're seeing that the body's better going down And when you're begging for more and you flat line on the floor Everybody everywhere more more more Drugs money sex pain Are you feeling lucky? Are you feeling free All the pieces fall away from me I just gotta get it I just gotta breath Well you can't control it And you can't have me Are you feeling good Are you feeling proud I don’t fucking care What's not allowed All the pieces that encompassed me have been replaced. Drugs money sex pain. Let's save our goodbyes for later folks I'm certainly not done yet Aww yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah It's a miracle we haven't crashed we're pounding on the seam (drugs money sex pain) Everything I understood is staring back at me (drugs money sex pain) Everybody wants what they can't have Gotta get it gotta take it ain’t it so sad. Underneath my skin Forces pulling deeper Deeper in deeper and deeper in How deep does it go I see something lurking down below It drags me in Something's lurking under the skin Are you getting tired of this yet? No? Well Good Yeah Drugs money sex pain All right yeah Drugs money sex Are you feeling good Are you feeling proud I don’t fucking care What's not allowed All the pieces that encompassed me have been replaced. Drugs money sex pain. It's all for show right It’s just a show right This is all for show It's just a show Right Right

about

Why do we call it a blood moon when the moon has no blood of its own, right? Perhapse the moon is just letting us borrow it for a little while. After humanity has grown so far, I certainly hope it never asks for it back...


True Blood Moon represents around 2ish years of work Ive been expirementing with a much more wide varity of musical styles for this one. Ive also been working on this album for faaaaaaaaaaar to long now, and im going a bit mad over it. I have a whole other album of stuff that didnt make it on to this one. Im pretty excited to show it to people at this point.

You know all this didnt exist back then. It didnt exist before the moon.
You Know, Once in a while, once in a blue moon, after a while I can hear you too. Calling to me, calling me out.
