#VERSE
I know you felt dehumanized
Like you were on the edge of a knife
I know that it's delusional
To think that we could heal with time
I know that we have fought for love
It's a battle to the death
But it's your name that I would speak
Upon my dying breath
#CHORUS
And don't it feel like heaven right now
Like sweet oblivion
Don't it feel like we're dreamin' now
Got your taste in my mouth
Mouth
#VERSE
I would cross the desert lands
Just to bridge the gaps
I'm not afraid of our enemies
Who will fall in their own traps
And we survived the fires of hell
And vanquished self-defeat
And I can think of no one else
Who makes me feel this free
#CHORUS
And don't it feel like heaven right now
Like sweet oblivion
Don't it feel like we're dreamin' now
Got your taste in my mouth
Mouth
In my mouth
Oh yeah
#CHORUS
And don't it feel like heaven right now
Like sweet oblivion
Don't it feel like we're dreamin' now
Got your taste in my mouth
Mouth
In my mouth
Oh yeah

The knocking at my door
The drums of civil war
They've come to draft the poor
Like the times before
So raise your banner high
Tomorrow we will die
Sound the battle cry
But never question why

Innocence died a slow death
And innocence is what we lost
Innocence was all we had left
And innocence nailed to a cross
#HOOK
Ah

Piled up in your head
Bleeding blue and red

Oh baby, don't it feel like heaven right now?
Don't it feel like somethin' from a dream?

Baby, we know better than to try and pretend
Honey, no one could have ever told me 'bout this

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Well yeah, I might have chased a couple of women around
All it ever got me was down
Yeah, then there were those that made me feel good
But never as good as I feel right now
Baby, you're the only one that's ever known how
To make me wanna live like I wanna live now
I said, yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you get one more yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart

Oh, don't let it kill you, baby, don't let it get to you
Don't let 'em kill you, baby, don't let 'em get to you

Things are falling into place
Though they didn’t go my way
Things are falling into place
Things are falling into place
Though there are things we can’t replace
Things are falling into place
I have a funny feeling about this place
Things are falling into
I don’t know what I’m dealin’
But it’s up to my waist
Things are falling into place place
Things are falling into place
And it comes to me in waves
Things are falling into place
Things are falling into place
Though there’re things we must embrace
Things are falling into place
I have a funny feeling about this place

I only think about you most of the time
I shrug it off but you stay on my mind
I hustle hard to stay out of the grind cause now
I think there’s something going on on the side
You got sick I brought you chicken soup
I played it off like we were cool
I hustle hard to stay in the loop cause now
Pretty soon I know that I’ll be duped
So don’t overthink it now
Just let the walls come down
The subtleties will work things out
Even if we’re both messing around
Your mom and dad they never got along
Maybe that why our bond’s not strong
You spend your nights hitting your bong and I
I should have seen that something was wrong
So don’t overthink it now
Just let the walls come down
The subtleties will work things out
Even if we’re both messing around
Mess around
Mess around
Mess around
Mess around
Looking into your kaleidoscope
I’ve got to squint to see any hope
I think we’ve started down a slippery slope where we’ll
Hang ourselves with our own rope
So don’t overthink it now
Just let the walls come down
The subtleties will work things out
Even if we’re both messing around
Mess around
Mess around
Mess around
Mess around
Mess around (I only think about you most of the time)

At least
I want you to know
It could wait till morning
But then you know I would go
Cause life is such a mess
It’s not picture perfect
Unlike when you undress
And it’s not
Just about sex
Cause I will make you coffee
And buy you cigarettes
Cause we
Are two of a kind
And when you’re not with me
You’re still on my mind
So please understand
That I will love you
The best I can
And I just wanted to say
That I will you
In my way
So sleep
In my t-shirt
As a simple reminder
Or just when it hurts
Cause I know
It’s not ideal
But every moment
Has never felt so real
And it’s not
Just about sex
Cause I make you coffee
And buy you cigarettes
Cause we
Are shooting stars
And God must be jealous
That’s why He keeps us apart
So please understand
That I will love you
The best I can
And I just wanted to say
That I will you
In my way
So please understand
That I will love you
The best I can
And I just wanted to say
That I will you
In my way

Desecrated lives
I’ve waited through this murky water
The sun is in my eyes
Reflecting on the good inside you
In how
In how
We kiss beneath the stairs
And I’m smitten by her seafoam hair and
A celebrated girl
Who is treasured like her mother’s pearls
In how
In how
She fits me
She fits me
We share our cigarettes
Like memories we won’t forget
A cannonball unchained
Our worlds collide like hurricanes
In how
In how
After all the years
We’ve overcome our childhood fears
We said it wouldn’t last
But we walk ahead on broken glass
Somehow
Somehow
She fits me
She fits me

BIO LIVING ART: Mixing emotive vocals with hypnotic rhythmic melodies, Hollywood-based producer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Waves_On_Waves’ releases acoustic tracks crafted out of authentic romanticism with healing propensities. Beyond the ‘80s aesthetics and stripped-down tracks, Waves_On_Waves is entrenched in the International trance and EDM scene, trafficking with other artistic forces in heavy-hitting collaborations that are often dropped around the globe at places like Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland, Electric Forest, and EDC Vegas. So dive in head first “Living Art” with contributions from Castles Made Of Sky, Ciley Myrus, Paris Remedy, Crimewave, Sonic Shades Of Blue, Death By Algorithm, and Pastel Arcade provides songs that are as calm and comforting as a soft blanket with the occasional kick to the teeth. Beyond the gentle croon of the vocals and modern pop polish, Waves_On_Waves reestablishes the piano as a rock & roll instrument, commanding the keys with both intimacy and aggression. After releasing volumes of synthwave and electronic dance collaborations, Waves_On_Waves will pause to realign, following instincts to return focus on haunting piano-based compositions. “If a song sounds great stripped to its bare essence, it’s guaranteed to sound stellar once fully produced.” Standing on their own, the confessional piano ballads, orchestrated meditations, and stripped-down poetics embedded in the tracks on “Living Art” will infiltrate your aesthetic core with healing propensities and envelop you as if applying ointment to a scar.
