lyrics

Oh, don't complain.
Oh, no, don't complain.
I've walked in and out in rain,
Been up and down and down again.
Oh, oh, one more thing:
The shaking stops when I sing.
Oh, oh, one thing:
The music stops, I'm in-between.

Shout, sing, scream.
The sound and the fury,
And I'm so tired of not being able to sleep.

I don't mean to complain.
I don't need to complain.
A steady sticking in my brain,
And in my wrists run nervous veins.
Oh, one more thing:
It gets much worse when I think.
Oh, oh, one more thing:
The music stops I'm in-between.

Shout, sing, scream.
The sound and the fury,
And I'm so tired of not being able to sleep.

Mark Christensen from Ghost Ghost stretches out into guitar and Chapman stick solo jams. Guaranteed to take you to space. Caveat: you might not want to leave space. Totally not our fault. Ghost Ghost

20/20
by Enthusiastic Electrons

Tim Bartlett from Ghost Ghost embraces his inner modular analog synth. This is a wide-ranging soundtrack to reality, which grows to encompass reality and then transcends it. Come on in. Ghost Ghost

Condo Fucks City Rockers
by Karl Ward

Karl Ward from Ghost Ghost gets pop punk, takes a time machine to 1990s Connecticut, learns how to skateboard... You might think this solo album sounds like early Ghost Ghost, and you might be right. Ghost Ghost
