about

This is a live demo. Imagination is needed to appreciate what this song could be at its full potential. A studio version is forthcoming.

lyrics

I feel tense when you are around:
A sound-bitten collar; a vampyric clown.
I feel tense when you are around in the moonlight.

It makes sense when those you surround
Shroud your heart with their indigo gowns.
It makes sense when those you surround block the sunlight

But you’re so obnoxious
With your quick synopsis
Making thoughts to publish count
In this world of noxious
Insightful options
Pitching words for those without

I feel tense when you are around:
The fragrant breath of a vampyric clown.
I feel tense when you are around in the moonlight.

It makes sense when those you surround
Marinate their hearts with your balsamic nouns
It makes sense when those you surround mock the sunlight

But you’re so obnoxious
With your careful pauses
Which you must indoctrinate
In this world of noxious
Uninsightful logics
Which I can’t articulate

Let up.

But you’re so obnoxious
You’re so synopsis
Making thoughts of verbal gout

I feel tense when you are around:
The pretentious tooth of a vampyric clown.
I feel tense when you are around in the moonlight.

It makes sense when those you surround
Shroud your heart with their indigo gowns
It makes sense when those you surround block the sunlight.

about

owenshire Ontario

Owenshire was born when Robert Muhlbock bought a bass guitar in 1992 and began recording dozens of bass and vocal demos under that name.

Two albums, numerous "live demos," one too-long hiatus and (most importantly) one bass distortion pedal later, Muhlbock continues to release riff-based alt. rock, scattered with lush harmonies and dotted with cryptic and/or disillusioned lyrics.
