The Mortal Taint - Sinking
Like riding out to sea alone
On a makeshift raft made of hope
Losing sight of the shore
Not at anchor anymore
And it feels like sinking
Beneath the waves
As the ocean sweeps me away
And I am one with the sea
My conscious thoughts sinking
Flowing out through me
Till all that's left is being
At last, I stand alone
All of my being exposed
An ocean flowing through me
And I am at one with the sea
It feels like sinking
An original and independent song by The Mortal Taint, recorded at Studio 57 in Sydney, Australia, on the 31st of August 2024. This is for my album, Unfit for Business, which is a collection of new songs I am writing for the 50 Songs in 90 Days songwriting challenge for 2024.

The Wave Gilders - Spooky
Просмотров 314 часа назад
It's dark outside The wind is strong And something here Seems somehow wrong It creaks and groans Beneath this roof And I'm alone With all the spooks The doors are locked The windows, down But there's a draft Upon my crown It's like I walked On someone's grave It's spooky how These ghosts behave I sit in bed But I can't sleep There's something there I have to peep But in the shadows I can't see ...
The Mortal Taint - The Stumbling Man
Просмотров 467 часов назад
People avert their eyes As they pass him by Nobody cares to now About the reasons why He stumbles and falls as he passes them by And people refuse to look him in the eye But he's too proud to speak out or tell them all why He can't find his feet and falls down in the street Some people think he's a drunk Who stumbles around in a funk But he never touches a drop In silence, endures his lot And s...
The Wave Gilders - Under a Full Moon
Просмотров 529 часов назад
Things are always different at night Like the way you look under moonlight I didn't see the beast by the light of day But under a full moon it looks that way Under a full moon You didn't seem the kind who'd want to howl But under a full moon, I see it now You're running wild till the break of dawn And I didn't see you change your form Under a full moon An original and independent song by The Wa...
The Mortal Taint - Butterfly

I'll spread my wings Cos nothing is forever And there's no time like the present To fly away And in the sun the colours run Iridescent on my wings Just for one day, I can spread my wings And fly away into the sun I spen all my life digging in the dirt And just this once, I can fly So, watch the play of colour on my wings As I disappear into the sun An original and independent song by The Mortal...
The Wave Gilders - Don't Tie Me Down
Просмотров 2214 часов назад
It's true for someone like me That I was never meant for a cage Even if the living was easy I could not survive as a slave So hey, don't tie me down I wasn't built to wear a chain And I always choose to be free And free is how I'll remain They always try to pin me down But they won't find me around I've slipped the leash once again I won't be kept in a pen An original and independent song by Th...
The Mortal Taint - Running Late
Просмотров 5019 часов назад
I didn't watch the time And I might have over-slept And it's such a pain To get out of my bed Now I'm running late And I never like to be rushed Ignore my phone as it lights up I already know someone's made a fuss And I just know that I will hit Every traffic light on the way So there's no use in being rushed I'll get there sometime today I'll get there sometime today An original and independen...
The Mortal Taint - Worried

The longer I wait The more that I fear The news will be bad When I finally hear What else could it mean When you're making me wait? I keep dropping hints But you don't take the bait So I'm worried It may be over nothing But what else can I do When I don't hear back from you? I keep going round It plays out in my mind Every mistake Every thought, every lie And all consequences That might come to...
The Wave Gilders - Pushing Through
Просмотров 4814 дней назад
Such a long way to go And the end is not in sight Just keep pushing through Into the night I'm pushing through I'm not defeated yet And if I need some help I'll take all I can get I'm self sufficient I don't like to impose Won't ask for help Just work on this alone I'm chipping away Piece by piece It's a hard road to tread But this is not defeat An original and independent song by The Wave Gild...
The Wave Gilders - Slow Down
Просмотров 4721 день назад
Always in a rush But you don't know where you're going It's always: "Hurry up and wait" Cos you don't know what you're doing Slow down You're going nowhere very fast You spin your wheels, not knowing The purpose of your task What's really so urgent? It's all just busy work And the rush impresses no one Why lives in the real world Slow down When you reach the end Look back on how you rushed Will...
The Mortal Taint - Disturbed
Просмотров 10721 день назад
I'm settled in Looking forward to a peaceful rest And maybe lay down my weary head But I'm disturbed By some random noise Or some intrusive thought in my head But I'll try And put it from my mind Convince myself I have no faults No reason to have such thoughts While I sleep But then outside Someone's making noise Screaming bloody murder while I sleep Disturbing me While I sleep An original and ...
Kim o' the Concrete Jungle - Don't Eat Me
Просмотров 5521 день назад
Wild, red in tooth and claw And I'm mild, trying to ignore Your teeth and claws and greedy eyes Fixed upon my neck As I try to live and let live Don't eat me I'm just trying to survive Don't eat me I'd rather stay alive Nature's much too harsh So be more civilized Don't eat me There's no reason to fight Just think, how peaceful things could be As we drink, from this fountain of life There's eno...
The Wave Gilders - She's Leaving
Просмотров 5228 дней назад
She's leaving again Sneaking out the door I don't know where she goes And when she's gone so long This empty room Seems to cast the blame At my feet She's leaving me alone And she does not come home It's not like we fight She doesn't seem to care About differences we share And when she gets up and goes I don't ever know If she's coming home At all An original and independent song by The Wave Gi...

How how how I be walkin Let my feet lead the way Ain't no reason To be out this way Let's see where I go Got no reason I'm a wandering man I go where I will I see what I can Where am I now? Down by the river Where the crayfish swim I keep on walkin I don't want to fall in Never did fall in An original and independent song by The Wave Gilders, recorded at Studio 57 in Sydney, Australia, on the 4...

Tonight I will lay down my head Knowing I have done all I can And they day will bring its rewards And perhaps, I will be content And all of the troubles That lay on my head Will leave me tonight As I lay in my bed And now that it's over I can get some sleep Knowing, when the day breaks I will find my feet Tonight the moon shines down on me I can see by the moonlight That shines over the water A...

Kim o' the Concrete Jungle - Messed Up
Yo, keep it going, don't ever stop!
This is amazing experimental rock. I like how you have the same tone but fit other intonations.
Yep. Whatever I try to do, it just comes out sounding like me. 🙃
Just stumbled on this video and although it’s the first I’ve listened to I’m really glad I found it. Thank you sir.
@@opiestein8212 You're welcome.
this is awesome keep rocking dawg
I love this! It reminds me of Stray Cats and the lyrics are hilarious!
Oh this is really nice
Isn’t that the truth!
Nice one Kim! Great tone on the guitars.
very cool!
Banger
Is this AI??? Too good, keep it up.
No it is not AI. (Count the fingers.) Even my little robot mascot guy is human generated.
Oh yes, that rolls along nicely! Creepy vocals and lyrics yet set to such a more positive sounding vibe - I like that contrast. This has a real Mid 60s "Byrds" feel to it. And that is great praise in my book.
Nice and raw. Salute
I'm getting towards the end of the album now, and I'm pretty happy with it. So, I'm releasing Microchip Head on my Bandcamp page on the 16th of June.
Awesome that you'd done each part, sounds sick!
Great composition here
very good------sounds bowie in melody but the voice is bluesy....excellent cocktail....keep yourself alive..australia forever..
Nice one Kim. Who cares?
Well, RUclips seems not to care, because they're not showing this to anyone. I'll have to see how it goes overnight.
So classic...3D standards.
nice one ❤🧡♥
Love this... Lyrics!!!!
It's a theme I've explored a few times, how music can often just bypass the rational, thinking side of your brain and tap straight into the more primitive, emotional side.
idk how I found this but im drunk af rn and nig this shit goes hard, 10/10 vibe
Kim~hi~beautiful ~
It sounds like it not me that needs to but sense i hit your feeling box lets get this figured out im private person show your true self so we can get this conversation underway
Just FYI. This song is 35 years old. This particular version of the lyrics is from my 2008 rewrite.
awww
That's just how it is. I want to cover all aspects of life. So I have my love songs, my relationship songs, my break-up songs, and my songs about alien zombie mutants who surf.
I noticed you, alongside with god
nice
What?
Dunno. Maybe it's music.
Well done Like this
nice tune Kim. Good themes. cheers bp
You got the blues for sure! Cool song and excellent performance/production. It' funny how we know we shouldn't touch it, but do anyway🤣. Super cool 👍👍
Super awesome!
Cool shit dude !
Cool drums again.. Cool song
Another great song.. Your songs and vocal remind me a wee bit of a Scottish band called Orange Juice..
Super song.. Great feel.
I am enjoying listening to your songs.. Well done.
Nice track.. Again I really like your drums.. I also like your idea of re recording your old songs.. I did the same thing for my 5th album.. All Day Long.. Keep up the good work.
With some of the really old ones, like this, there is so little to my original demos that I'm almost having to rewrite them from scratch. For this song, the main guitar riff is the only thing that's genuinely old.
Good song.. Good drums too.
This is a cool track
Great song. Well done.
Keep those songs coming Kim :)
What a mad vocal melody! Great arrangement man!
Yeah, I was pretty weird when I was 17 and wrote this. :)
I'm sure you own a dang guitar store! LOL Nice one. That instrumental bridge is pretty fancy... I like it alot.
I used to have 35 guitars and basses. But I had a clear-out and cut that back to 32.
@@kim_o_the_concrete_jungle Brave move. Must have Sophie's Choice type hurt. :)
Nice one Kim
👏❤👏❤👏❤👏❤👏
Loving the chorus, lyric and especially the vocal treatment in production. Well done!
superb
this is good
🙌👍
