lyrics
Maybe I should not have awoke today,
Termites infest my brain,
I don't want your shame,
One day I'd like to be the king,
Of my own world and it's beings,
So, sick of the everyday thing,
Work and play it's all the same to me,
I shake my fists to take the pain,
Like a mad man won't you take me away?
I'm no speedbump,
Watching you walk all over me,
I don't like you up in my face -
Get your boots off my face, punk!
Acts of judgement displayed,
Looks are not what we should base,
I shake my fists to take the pain,
Like a mad man won't you take me away?
I'm no speedbump,
I'd like to be the king,
Sometimes, I'm as sick as them,
No, I don't want your stinkin' shame,
I shake my fists to take the pain,
Like a mad man won't you take me away?
I'm no speedbump,
Watching you walk all over me,
I don't like you up in my face -

...lesser than God (Origins),
released March 29, 2016
...lesser than God technically, really should have been ...less than God or ...lesser than our God, but I had my own philosophy on what it should mean at the time. The group, at the time of these recordings, consisted of Chris Davis on vocals/lyrics, Greg McNeely on guitar, Chris Moyle on bass guitar and Chad Meinders on drums. It was produced and engineered by Steve Palmer and Mike Whitaker at Luky 7 Studios. Violent Mood Swings, The Seed, The Mirror and Hang Your Wings were recorded on March 22 1998. It was the next morning after a show at the Firehouse in the vicinity of SLU downtown. Anorexic Life was recorded later that year there. It was never released, but the first four were on our self-titled debut in tape format. Cover art by Chris Davis. Cyber Girl, Plaster Of Paris, No Room For Alice, Conscience, Tomorrow's Sun & more were performed live at the Mud Room on Hampton Ave. in 1996 I think. This is the audio from an old camcorder. Jason Harding on drums and Kurt Pruno on bass w/ Greg on guitar & Chris Davis on vocals.
