Name: Realization (Remastered)
Duration: P00H05M53S
Description: This is one of my favorite songs, however, my idea was to kind of give it a Crash Test Dummies sound, originally. It didn't quite work out. I then later redid this song on my "Impossible Nothing" album "Rock Beats Giant" in 2016. This version of the song has additional vocals provided by my wife at the end. (The nanas).

lyrics

The best of intentions have done nothing but leave me broken hearted
And still I can't remember just how the whole thing started
How quickly I became a captive to the doubts
Forgetting all along there was that one way out
As the values I knew to be true
Became so distant and abused.

Swallowed up by the hunger of the tempest
Caught off guard I gave in the the tempted
I want to get out of this awful mess.

I have come to the realization that I need something more.

Through all of the misfortune, I have had to deal with my denial
And now it is too obvious for me to deny any longer.
How I need to turn this all around
Remembering what it is to be on sacred ground.
To be released from what entwines me
To open my eyes and finally see.

Raise me from my walking grave
I know my own life I can't save
I want to get back to the better days

Monochrome
by Scandroid

This album has some serious 80's love going on and is a side project of Klayton, the genius behind Celldweller and Circle Of Dust. Midiboy

In Scarlet & Vile (Special Edition)
by The Echoing Green

This is one of the first synthpop bands I ever got into, and this album is by far their best album and among my favorite synthpop albums of all time. Highly recommend this one! Midiboy

Alpha and Omega (1999)
by Azimuth A.D.

This album right here....so good. It has a 70s vibe to it and yet has a slight electronic folk sound as well, but yet also modern. I love the singer's voice. She's so easy to listen to! Midiboy
