Waltimus Prime Awesome music. Lyrics just vague enough to make you think about what they mean, and great melodies to keep you interested. 'Escapologist' and 'Made It' were particularly good. Favorite track: Escapologist.

Escapologist 06:02
Fill me up with water Fill me up with water Watch me do the impossible As my lungs fill with air Fill me up with water Fill me up with water Watch me do the impossible As my lungs fill with air Fill me up with water Fill me up with water Watch me do the impossible As my lungs fill with air Fill me up with water Fill me up with water Watch me do the impossible As my lungs fill with air Fill me up with water Fill me up with water Watch me do the impossible As my lungs fill with air Fill me up with water Fill me up with water Watch the steam blow out my ears Watch the sweat drip out my skin Watch the spit fall off my tongue Watch the tears stream from my eyes Watch me drown Watch me do the impossible Watch me drown As my lungs fill with air

Camera Shy 04:16
Everyone is only one thing I think you’ve got the the wrong idea Just look closer The house is really empty I forget who knows who Just remember It’s easy They’re just different From you That makes it easier Don’t you think? Oh My sight grows dark And I care far too much Oh You taught me how to hate Told me I was wrong. That's ok Seven Years and I’m right in the middle of it Seven Years and I’m right in the middle of it You never know you’re in that much danger Like the flicker of a smile on the face of a stranger Well it’s seven years and I’m right in the middle of it Seven Years and I’m right in the middle of it Today is the day When I turn my life around Tomorrow is the day When I turn my life around I’ll turn my life around Around Oh Throw me a life I’ll come crashing down at midnight Oh But it’s gotta be true Only has meaning when it happened to you Is it really you? Or are you Camera shy? Camera shy Camera shy Camera shy

Set in Stone 05:40
I’m not joking when I say, Sometimes it’s nice to laugh We sit and listen to stories We’ve already heard a billion times before It’s like walking home Every step is comforting and warm Under covers through the storm And I’m not kidding when I say, Sometimes I think back to The last day I didn’t worry About the smallest little details of my life It was a while ago You know, I’m not sure if there was one at all Smiling faces on my walls It’s all set in stone And it would be so easy It’s all set in stone And it would be so easy Please listen when I say Sometimes it’s nice to know Each day is getting better And things just aren’t the way they used to be Sure is a nice thought And nice thoughts sometimes turn out to be true Like the thoughts I had for you On a bench at platform two It’s all set in stone And it would be so easy It’s all set in stone And it would be so easy I don’t wanna be remembered in a million years I don’t wanna be remembered in a thousand years time I don’t wanna be remembered a hundred years from now I don’t wanna be remembered when all the lives I know are over On a distant day Maybe a Friday In a photograph I don't wanna be remembered by you Like that All I want is to be thought about today I just wanna be thought about today I just wanna be thought about today I just wanna be thought about today I just wanna be thought about

Leave us to our devices Leave us to our false idols Leave us to temptation Then leave us alone Where did all my patience go? It’s right where I left it. I saw a man in a minivan Overtaking an ambulance. Everyone says I’m paranoid I hear them when my back is turned. History is ignorance And ignorance is some guy I met at a pub Leave us to our devices Leave us to our false idols Leave us to temptation Then leave us alone We all need a little death Tall tales for short attention spans But now he’s just a dead guy He doesn’t have any say in it Open minded funeral I’m glad you’re not my only friend You’re free to live a lonely life Now don’t you see it was freedom held you back? Leave us to our devices Leave us to our false idols Leave us to temptation Then leave us alone Be excellent to each other, now Those wise dudes from the future say Now my brain is smarter than I am I’m topical facting my life away Is anyone still listening? I have opinions on everything But I’m helplessly crushed underneath Those books I always meant to read Leave us to our devices Leave us to our false idols Leave us to temptation Then leave us alone Then leave us alone Then leave us alone Alone Alone

Made it 04:51
My mind is emptying out I've got nothing to write about I want to do something with my life I want to do something with my life Thinking in the dark People leave a mark A light I’m screaming "Don’t do it again" "Don’t do it, don’t go the way you always go" Cos I can’t stand repeating myself Repeating myself I could just give in Just stop wallowing I might But first I’ll see the sight I’ve wanted all this time The light I'm turning it off And walking away Forgetting my problems Forgetting my name It’s not even real It’s not even real I didn’t even say it It’s not even real I talk way too much I argue a lot I overthink shit I really should stop Even this is indulgent Though I'm still unsure But this is me This is me This is me This is me This is me This is me This is me This is me And I would gladly wake up to this every day I would gladly wake up to this every day Every day I would gladly wake up Every day Every day Every, every, every day

about

A collection of songs written between November 2015 and April 2016, bundled together in this little collection.

Trying to use my words to capture my thoughts about where my life is. Circular reasoning, circular conversations, repeating and repeating. I just keep hoping it leads somewhere.

When possible I tried to use the first take of each performance.

Recorded at RMIT Melbourne Campus.
