lyrics

I wake come morning
And I take my pill
For the whole world around me
Will pass so still

I’m in purgatory
Til the end of time
And only my voice
And my two hands are mine

Get drunk a little
And sit on the couch
I do what I won’t soon
And I let it all out

This strange attire
Doesn’t fit me well
But in the world we see
It can be hard to tell


A sip of coffee
If I wake up soon
And if I don’t
When it’s half past noon

I’ll stay up all night
Have a beer instead
With every idea
Still inside my head

The people find me
Start to push and flail
For I have them too
As what’s in the mail

It gets contagious
Subtle apathy
But I have faith
In the world we see


And I have faith
In the world around
Though they don’t scream
Or even make a sound

So I do my best
To scream loud enough
To cut through the world
To cut through the fluff

For they are in all
Of the world we see
In the leaves and stones
In your own body

So we do some justice
For the solid earth
For those with wings
Or those in the dirt


For every soul
In the world we see
There’s a dozen more
Too in purgatory

I see them as me
For I am not a man
I am child still
Though with both my hands

And I stay in my room
Still lost in song
And wait for moments like this
To come along

And if I’m sitting here
And it’s fine by me
Then come out and enjoy
All the world we see

about

C.B. Moniker image

C.B. Moniker New York, New York

C. B. Moniker makes a variety of tunes at various stages of caffeination. Stylistically we stick around folk, as it is music for the folks we are, but also like taking influence from punk, ska, orchestral rock, and the ever elusive "jazz." We hope this music at least serves its purpose, and maybe even inspires someone. That would be so cool, wouldn't it? <3 ... more
