The Somnambulating Schematic of the Obstreperous

  • Streaming + Download

    Includes high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. Paying supporters also get unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app.

    Technically speaking, it's a 12 track album. The intro track is really track 00 and isn't counted. It's just an intro. All of the track indexes are off by 1 and it's kind of annoying.

    These are the things that make me an insomniac and fuel the imagery on this album...

Once upon a time Once upon a time Once upon a time the story goes Once upon a time the story began Once upon a time the story went Once upon a time there lived a man A man who lived inside of his head In his head he built his world In this world was love and hope A love and hope for a certain girl But, this girl did not notice No, this girl did not care This girl was unaware that This man had some love to share So, one day he tried to approach her One day at the club One day she might accept But that day was still to come This night she declined his offer This night they danced alone This night he remembered why Once upon a time ago Once upon a time the story goes Once upon a time the story began Once upon a time the story went Once upon a time there lived a man Once upon a time the story went Once upon a time the story goes Once upon a time the story began Once upon a time there lived a girl This girl she lived in her head This girl she made her plan Her plan for finding love A love and hope from a special man One day she declined an offer The next night she danced alone She never did find true love, nope Once upon a time's no more Once upon a time the story went Once upon a time the story goes Once upon a time the story began Once upon a time there lived a girl Once upon a time the story goes Once upon a time the story began Once upon a time the story went Once upon a time there lived a man

Every day is just another dream When I'm living out my fantasy The earth has gone up in flames Tonight baby, it's just you and me

Gnomes 07:27
At any point throughout the day All over the entire world, At least one person is napping Be it a boy or a girl Young or old, tall or small They close their eyes and dream, They go to sleep a bit restless And imagine forests green In the skies the dragons fly And Apollo’s lute is played, People dream of pretty princesses In open fields they lay Dreaming of new bosses And new jobs that make them smile, Dreaming of all these little things Makes them happier for a while But there’s something that they don’t know I’ll give you a little hint, Those dreams are our portals To sneak in for a (short) bit We solely live inside your dreams We control your memories, We’re the Nap Gnomes of Slumberland And we do as we please. We read(reap) your thoughts and feed upon Forgotten memories, We eat up all your failed hopes And long lost fantasies We like to twist up the fabric Of your forgotten past, We recreate your history And we can do it real fast We slowly change your memories So you no longer know what’s true, We think it’s funny to confuse you We love it through and through You humans make it easy though It’s like you want us here, You always want to cover up What you gaze at in the mirror You pretend that you never did Those many hurtful things, You imagine that you’re a good guy You wear false angel wings. You birthed us without knowing Nurtured our race’s course, Now we take advantage because (Now we’ve taken over) We’ve unlocked all your doors I come to you on this day With a small peace offering, I’ve gotten old, fed on many souls And vanished wedding rings But I’ve grown tired of the life That I used to live, I want you to remember All of the real things that you did If you stop pretending And instead live honestly, I’ll give you back your dreams So you can claim your true reality.

Gee I'm glad it's raining There's always something to be thankful for I'm awfully glad it's raining Cause no one sees your tear drops when it pours And no one knows the thunder Is your heartbreak in disguise They think the rainy nights What put that sad look in your eyes Sure am glad it's raining The gentle rhythm soothes the pain inside I'm glad the stars aren't shining A wounded warrior needs a place to hide I thought I had found someone I could count on til the end What she wanted was a hero All I needed was a friend Gee I'm glad it's raining I hope the morning sun won't come up soon As long as it keeps raining No one knows my heart broke right in two I thought I had found someone I could count on til the end What they wanted was a hero All I needed was a friend Sure am glad it's raining. I'm awfully glad it's raining

it's time to say good bye to you it's time to go home it's been fun but the time is done it's tiring on the run maybe we'll meet again maybe i won't want to but it's time to say good bye to you it's been fun but it's been too long it's time to move along dry your mind / eyes out wipe away the foam / tears atone before you're alone find a distant / different star close your eyes and wish be thankful that you exist maybe we'll meet again if i want to / maybe i wont want to it's time to say good bye to you because it's time to say good bye to you it's time to go home
