In a haze, seven days
Alone with this condition
Give me face, or give me space
You have my permission
Alone on a night in September
Eyes on the glowing screen
Cruise controlling with everything showing
And nobody comes for me
Everyone sees
But in my head its only me
Me and the screen
Phantom face in a fantasy
Woke up today
With not a lot to say
Could it be that I’m here all by myself
Black lingerie
This bottle of rose
I just need a little fun
It’s for my health
Keep passing time
And all the little signs
Make me feel larger than myself
These petty crimes
This twisted paradigm
No shame in it I do it for myself
In a haze, seven days
Alone with this condition
Give me face, or give me space
You have my permission
Alone on a night in September
Eyes on the glowing screen
Cruise controlling with everything showing
And nobody comes for me
Everyone sees
But in my head it’s only me
Me and the screen
Phantom face in a fantasy

Carve me from stone
Take me, take me home
I have the body, and you have the face
It doesn’t need to be so complicated
I’m tied up, can’t get down
You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around
Can’t give up, not now no we’ve
We’ve gotten this far
We’ve grown up like overnight
I seen how your presence can cut through the light
But I forgive, and I don’t fight, I
I still heal you
Stop trying to be sexy stop trying to be cool
Stop trying to be so goddam fabulous all the time
Pass me on the street
You find me something to eat
I am not salty and you’re not sweet
Perhaps it’s tasty enough
Bound to bind me
I’m tied up cant get down
You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around
Can’t give up not now no we’ve
We’ve gotten this far
We’ve grown up like overnight
I seen how your presence can cut through the light
But I forgive, and I don’t fight I
I still heal you
Stop trying to be sexy stop trying to be cool
Stop trying to be so goddam fabulous all the time
How did the blankets get so complicated
Memories, you’re talking about memories
I’m tied up can’t get down
You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around
Cant give up not now no we’ve
We’ve gotten this far
We’ve grown up like overnight
I seen how your presence can cut through the light
But I forgive, and I don’t fight I
I still heal you
I’m tied up cant get down
You’re fired up and chasing your conscience around
Can’t give up not now no we’ve
We’ve gotten this far
We’ve grown up like overnight
I seen how your presence can cut through the light
But I forgive, and I don’t fight I
I still heal you

Hey it’s you again
My most handsome friend
When you take my hand
Tie me up again
How How
Dare Dare
You You
Look Look
So So
Damn Damn
Good Good Good Good
In the days of youth
Anything is truth
So I give to you
More than you can chew
(Fat Tony verse)
You taught me something that I never can forget
Never met no one like her and hope I never will
Never say never but her potential is a thrill
Never felt better hope her intentions are real
And if its temporary I'm a rock with her still
When I’m with you mami it feel better than a pill
I feel like we’re connected in our spirit when we chill
I look into your eyes and I see that we can build
But right now be 100 with me we can ride it out
Ain’t nothing to lie about i needed a ride or die
Something special on another level
We can build on another level
Hey Hey I I am waiting for you
How dare you look so good to me oh
Hey Hey I I am waiting for you
How dare you look so good

In between my mind and mouth
Between my heart and groin
I’ve got you my sweet shoutout
My etheric toy
Heaven is place inside, not a foreign land
Rather have the fantasy, than to have your hand
No one better make a move
Now we’re standing in the perfect light
Baby its a habit fight it
Savor the unknown tonight
Know you wanna grab have it put it in a bottle
Close it tight
It don’t need a label to be real
To be ours tonight
It don't need a label to be real to be ours tonight
It don't need a label to be real
To be ours tonight
To be ours tonight
It don't need a label to be real
Not in love
Don’t get it wrong, don't got it made
Not in love
This won’t last long its just a phase
Not in love
Don’t get it wrong don't got it made
Not in love
This won’t last long its just a phase
Seems like every time we try
We fuck it up again
Can’t seem to sustain the dream
But could never be just friends
The thought of you
Is all i need
Right now to keep me warm
I hold you in the perfect light
With these etheric arms
No one better make a move
Now we’re standing in the perfect light
Baby its a habit, fight it
Savor the unknown tonight
Know you wanna grab have it put it in a bottle
Close it tight
It don’t need a label to be real
To be ours tonight
To be ours tonight
It don’t need a label to be real to be ours tonight
Not in love
Don’t get it wrong don't got it made
Not in love
This won’t last long its just a phase
Not in love
Don’t get it wrong don't got it made
Not in love
This won’t last long its just a phase
Carve our names in the cement
Only time will tell if we’ll be together again
Careless with how close we’ve come to falling
Our foolish hearts don’t know
But how they love to pretend

Try Again

Chances you are
Made of stories made of scars
But you will find your way
Try again with me another day
Tear it apart
Do not fear what you find in the dark
Cast it away
But the shadows are here to stay
Chances you are
Made of stories made of scars
But you will find your way
Try again with me another day
And every time I’m at my window
City skylines burn my eyes
And every time I feel that salty wind blow
I wonder why we never tried
But dear you know I’d never say it
To say I get you would be a lie
For what it’s worth I know you feel it
Or maybe I just got too high

Metal Mother Los Angeles, California
Metal Mother is the pseudonym of LA-based performance artist, vocalist, pianist, and composer, Tara Timberman. Somewhere at the intersection of avant-pop, doom-folk, and electronica, Metal Mother weaves synth-heavy tapestries of melancholic melodies, intricate polyrhythms, and etheric (and sometimes spastic) vocals into cathartic arrangements of songs. ... more
