about

This is an alternate version of a Sirreal song called "Offscreen". Spit hot fire.

lyrics

Open eyes dilate to the widest margin
Black eclipses the color leaving only carbon footprints to follow back out
Black out
No memory, no reason left to be
Only goal or hope is the screen
High def low life, 20/20 hindsight
Instincts stays bright to light to hide itself inside

Captivated by the screen
You all stare, surprising me
Welcomes you into the world
Introduced by your TV
This is all that I can see
It's a reflection of obscurity
Welcomes you into the world
Introduced by your TV

Motherfucker come on

Change the channel, drop the body in the canal
of the lost life we used to love
Hidden in the panels of the wall, starting to decay,
give yourself away, root the problems in the foundation of your being
Pay to play, ay, no longer safe to say
Maybe we'll make it thru to see the light of another day
Motherfuckers trying to say another day gonna pass
it'll all be okay, but I never had the space to move or better breathe
And a motherfucker never knew what I would perceive
But it would have to be something else that I could believe
Or maybe something inside me ever from the get-go
Motherfucker had to let go
Motherfucker never said so

CHORUS

High def low life
20/20 hindsight
Darkness stays bright for the light to hide itself inside and hide behind

Somewhere between Jeff Buckley and Queens of the Stone Age sits Mike Hamel. Blending haunting melodies with stark, raw emotion is the main goal for Hamel. The lyrics are honest but poetically ambiguous, the musicianship is tight and focused, and Hamel, himself, is an alluring character. ... more
