lyrics

they're here to rescue you
let them help you
without asking
if you wanted to

a safe landing
but you're still tense
and it won't end
anytime soon

that's not the real you
i couldn't help myself
to let you know

lights went blue
when they started to turn off
the whole night sky and the moon

it's not safe to tell the truth
you sitting on the sidewalk all alone
i'd pretend we're through
but i just long to spend some time with you
though all of your beliefs are bloomed
into a bouquet of lies you tell yourself
to keep feeling true

cloud-cuckoo-land welcomes you
i used to enjoy your music, now it sounds dull
who're you trying to fool?
we all know she's not waiting for you
i feel old and you too
maybe this is the last thing we share
or maybe not

Nobody Matters / Alienation = Paranoia
by riːˈjuːnjən (REUNION)

I recorded this single under the moniker riːˈjuːnjən (REUNION) back in the late 2014. Surprisingly, years after I can still stand it pretty well. Which is an utterly underrated achievement. Marie Byrd Land Band

Sing the Night Away
by Kubla Khan

Kubla Khan's acoustic debut EP is my personal favourite release came out from my hometown in the past years. The singer-songwriter, and friend, R. Rivaroli lent his voice for the MBLB's song "People". Marie Byrd Land Band

I NEED YOU
by needless

A 4-songs EP I home-recorded last summer with R.R. from Kubla Khan to roll out our side-project Needless. Two songs written by him, two by me. Hopefully more to come in the future. Marie Byrd Land Band
