SOME OTHER LIFE
Now you look at me
Disappointed eyes
I let you down again
Why are you surprised?
I might promise to try
I might even mean it at the time
I might even be redeemed
In some other life
Now I made my bed
Yes I know that's true
Would you be so quick to judge
What if it was you?
I might say that I'm kind
I might even believe it at the time
I might even be redeemed
In some other life
I thought it's what I always wanted
On paper all my wishes granted...

Goodbye Budapest

GOODBYE BUDAPEST
Goodbye budapest
I'll never forget you
Goodbye peace and rest
I'll learn to live without you now
And as we fly over the river
Blue danube
I feel like I can hardly see you
Farewell happiness
So temporary
Goodbye easy breath
I know my heart holds too much weight
And as I slide under the surface
Drowning in blue
I feel like I don't even know you
Still I will
Go to the mountain
When I hear it calling
And I hear it still
Over the silence
That sings when it's falling
Sings when I'm falling
Secrets move like rust
Over this landscape
Whispers trace my trust
Spreading the fault lines in the light
And as I try, try to remember
All falls to dust
Floating away into the ether
Still I will
Go to the mountain
When I hear it calling
And I hear it still
Over the silence
That sings when it's falling
Sings when I'm falling
Still I will
Go to the mountain
When I hear it calling
And I hear it still
Over the silence
That sings when it's falling
Curtain is falling

IN THE NEWS
Lie still hear the voices
They'll guide you to the forest
If I breathe deep it surrounds me
I need another skin to hold the truth in
Lies flow from the faces
It's evidence time erases
Nothing real is in the news
Close your eyes feel your way inside the universe
Now it's happening again
Turn around until it's gone
I don't care, you see I've heard it all before
I'll run away, I just can't listen anymore
Nothing real is in the news
Close your eyes feel your way inside the universe
Now it's happening again
Turn around until it's gone
Turn off the radio heal the madness
Shut down the video see the proof
Tell me when it's over, I'll come back again

SCARY
Something scared you
Big strong man like you
What could it have been
With all the things you've seen
A scary little girl
Got you all up in a swirl
Panic in your brain
She's the one to blame
Chorus: What are you waiting for
Walk out the door tonight
Better luck next time, yeah
Your future's looking bright
You're a perfect little boy
With all your fancy toys
Lonely in your bed
Living large inside your head
Chorus
So you've been around the world
Piles of money lots of girls
What've you got to show
When everybody goes
Everybody goes
Everybody goes

The WISDOM LOUNGE
Hello my dear
Welcome to my lair
I made it comfy
Just because I care
Sit by the fire
Sink into your chair
The lighting is forgiving
In case your soul is bare
This is the Wisdom Lounge
A place of many wonders
And I have seen it all
We show our tattoos
No need to be discreet
We're reminiscing
The world was at our feet
One day we wake up
Eyes without the stars
We see the phonies
Exactly how they are
This is the Wisdom Lounge
A place of many wonders
And I have seen it all
I hope you're listening
What you don't know could fill a book
And don't you give me
That lipstick-pouty look
This is the Wisdom Lounge
A place of many wonders
Forgive the losers
Embrace your bloody blunders
This is the Wisdom Lounge
A place of many wonders
And I have seen it all

One Word

ONE WORD
I've been sitting here all night just to watch you--don't you see me?
I'm at the dark little table in the corner--all alone
And how long do you think
I can nurse this drink
Before I walk on over to you?
Maybe you'll just stand there saying nothing--while I'm waiting
Don't wanna be the one doing all the talking--but I can
They say that you're shy
You can't be charming on the fly
But I can make it easy on you
Chorus: Just say one word, one word
And I'll be up and over in your arms
Just say one word one word
And I promise you
It will change your life
I'm not the sort of girl who likes to go around--chasing strangers
(I like to say that but you know that maybe--it's a lie)
Maybe you're afraid
To look back later at the mess we made
But I can make it easy on you
Chorus

Shame

SHAME
You're the one they all think of as lucky
You're the man every man wants to be
Just like you planned it
But have you noticed
Your lights aren't shining as brightly as they used to be
Chorus: Shame you didn't learn your lesson half your life ago
And it's a shame love turned its back on you
So smooth you just skate on the surface
Nothing blocks your view of the tippy-top
But now you're blinded
Miscalculated
Tripped on your ego and tumbled down to reality
Chorus

Across the Sky

ACROSS THE SKY
Maybe love is coming back around
She has seeds to sow
She will bury them inside the ground
Hope that they will grow
The seasons change
She's waiting for the rain
There are polished jewels and solid wood
From another time
Smooth white linen set in place
Dresses hang in line
She knows the light will fade
She's waiting for the rain
Maybe the sun worships the moon
Just like a lover
Lives through the day, then runs for his life
Chases tomorrow across the sky
She was barefoot walking in the dirt
When she saw the signs
Circle Star and Butterfly
Burning in her mind
She knows the clouds by name
She's waiting for the rain
Maybe the sun worships the moon
Just like a lover
Lives through the day, then runs for his life
Chases tomorrow across the sky
Wait, she'll have to wait--
Until the time when she can
Fly across the sky

Medea Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Torchy sinister dramatic, sexy doom & gloom.
"A post-pandemic Medea has resurfaced
with more to say, about love and loss, evil and lies, magic and mystery. The usual Medea stuff, but now filtered through older lenses shaped by tragedy & flavored by the ever-present feeling that time is growing short. The band mined this deep emotional ore, and found the most powerful music Medea has ever made."
