~*CLICK FOR TABS to  Ugly Story*~

Long time coming. This is my first attempt at something resembling tablature, hopefully it’s clear enough! I’m open for suggestions on how to improve the format for future songs.

Feel free to use these to cover Ugly Story anyway you like. I’d love to see what anyone does with it! Send me a note if you do a cover and I’ll reblog it :)

By popular demand! A Sollux Captor fansong with Sollux<3Aradia undertones and some rather silly voice acting. More lighthearted than a lot of my other stuff.

One of me is my enemy 
the other me is a pretty cool guy 
but I haven’t seen him around lately 
we don’t see eye to eye

There’s too much noise and too much spit 
but I think I’ve gotten the hang of it 
or at least I thought I did 
until you up and kicked the bucket 
(Wait! I mean… oh, f*ck it)

What do you see in him? What could I say 
to convince you not to hop his way? 
I’ve never been too good at the ebb and sway 
much prefer the electrical current

The bees are buzzing in my mind 
that double crossing and two-timing (get it?) 
prospectors pan shifting through sand 
searching for a golden nugget

Little brains build little bridges trying to connect, but I’m already on the other side, 
you’d know a lot about that, right? I’m twice the man as he is, I’ll work for you double-time

:D *SNARKY WHISTLE BREAK* :D

Would that be fine? Of course it’s fine.

Primarily, I’m primary 
though some may say I’m incomplete 
and should be in a jar 
label me “DO NOT EAT”

Hope has struck me in the face 
and with his ace of clubs he shoved me 
back into the race 
cause second place still wins a trophy

I might have overheated, now remind me how I died, was it my motherboard, or just my RAM? 
Now I’ve found a player two in you, I’m glad I fried, I’m using every second that I can 
of Double Time

Double trouble bursting bubbles 
Where you go I’ll follow 
Hollow-eyed and now I’m fine 
I’m only making up for lost time

Tick and tock and red and blue 
The colours and the sounds I never knew 
When they were all I saw 
Now sightless-eyed and empty-jawed

Double Time…

I never have before but I’d definitely be willing. :) Of course music takes more effort than doing a drawing so I’d have to charge more… based on how much time I usually put into a song they’d probably be anywhere from 80-200 dollars.

If anyone would like to commision me to write a song for them, or do a drawing, or just ask about it, they can email me at phemiec@gmail.com

I wont hold you to anything and I won’t bite I swear. :)

Because some people asked for it, here’s my Kanaya song “Mary” with no reverb/Echo effects.

A Kanaya fansong, at the request of prupelallitraitor. These just keep getting more and more echoic…I might have a problem.

look at all the many colors, so exquisitely embroidered, 
delicately and precisely sewn into a line 
organized in harmony, relationships so intricate 
how’d I ever come across a tapestry so fine?

but what is this? 
you’re burning holes in my stitching 
the colours bleeding into one big mess 
did you guess, I’d let this fabric fray?

I’m meddling with murderers who still deserve to pay for their insanity 
and though I’m one of them, I’m rarest of my kind, for many fell but only I arose 
it’s been so long, since I’ve seen the sun, who’s to say if the colours have faded? 
locked away so long, now jaded, left only to decay

I’m Mary. I feel like Mary in this dress. I’m Mary.

And virgin journeys lie before us, patient and inscrutable 
There’s clouds of visions, crowds of villains, mulling in withdrawal 
And who would make the sacrifice, who but I is suitable? 
who but the sharp dressed woman with a dull chainsaw?

I mean no insult, but I’m fed up 
It’s my fault, gave you the go ahead 
I’ve lost my way, my hopeful days 
are just as dead as I am

And failure on my part to intercede has now ironically 
or cosmically, like poetry, come in between our destiny 
and us but now there’s nothing left and nobody to meddle with 
to try and make it better, it’s unsettling, to mother nothing

Mightn’t I have seen this coming on the horizon? 
storms of green and orange, this world of monsters taking form 
but no, it is my place to simply fade away like wind 
like someone else that I could name that shouldn’t have been born

Of Mary. I feel like Mary in this dress. 
I’m Mary and I’ve nothing to confess 
but hear me, cause no-one else is left

I’m Mary…

A breezy, experimental fansong about the post-scratch kids. Poor babies. <3

I am an island, no man is an island but me 
I reach out my leaves, and skillfully touch them to sea 
I ship out a boat made of hope on the waves and watch as it slips below 
I am an island, a island that nobody knows

I am an island, no man is an island but I’m not a man 
I was raised by an ocean of creatures and brands 
I give what I can of, the fruits and flowers that bloom on my skin 
But when loneliness knocks, she lets herself in

Islands don’t sink, the water just rises around us 
Just think, someone out there is watching the stars 
but they’re not the same as ours, some say they’re already dead, 
and the light’s only on in your head.

I am an island, no man is an island but me, 
I warm all my sands by the pyre of my family tree 
I took to the tundra, I climb every mountain and fight every monster I can 
to run from that long burning fire, my friend

I am an island, no man is an island but I’m not a man 
And messages in bottles feel like battering rams 
In my head I’m a beacon, a pinprick of potential, birthed out of nothing but blue 
And the light that I signal, it’s shining for you

Islands of love, we just want somebody to touch us 
Just ‘cause we are distant doesn’t mean we are lost 
we are where we are, and whenever a visitor docks 
and is stranded, it means we are not

you and I have something in common, I will try to share my island 
you and I are sinking in tandem, miles apart in every direction 
You and I are treading this current, both of us are doomed for certain 
you and I are our own now, maybe we’ll wash up on solid ground

You and I are Islands x4

Islands of fate, lately I feel the tides shifting 
They’re bringing us closer together to stay 
The waters are rippling, a new world is taking it’s shape 
and tonight, our Pangaea awaits

My Cover of the song “Hot Problems” by Double Take. If you haven’t seen the original song yet, It’s a lovely bit of trolling and shouldn’t be missed. 

Wow got super inspired, so here’s a quick on the draw Tavrisprite fansong. more metaphorical than my fansongs usually are…

LYRICS

~~

I’m gonna have a nightmare tonight 
I’m gonna be my nightmare tonight

You’re pretty picky, you’re a clique of one 
I’m right though, surely I’m not the only gun you’ve got loaded? 
How do you keep from gloating? 
You’re pretty tricky, did you pick that shade 
just to distract from the flash of the shining blade you’ve got hidden? 
Deep wounds overwritten

I had so many new friends to see 
so many possibilities 
now I couldn’t possibly feel worse 
I had so many fires left to nurse

In my nightmare tonight I’ll see giant leviathans 
breaking the water in half with their shining skin 
riding them laughing you’ll be in my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I’ll see beasts all stampeding 
your signia burned onto haunches still healing 
and leading the pack on their backs in my nightmare tonight 
You’ll be in my nightmare tonight, tonight…

You’re pretty ugly when you get down to it, 
combined, I’ve half a mind to just say screw it and break completely, 
or surrender so sweetly 
I thought I’d have a chance to be my own, 
free from the tyranny of your tarnished throne. 
Now I see that kingdom belongs to me, oh no…

I had so many irons in the fire 
so many brands and swords 
To their backsides I had even more 
So many plans on what they’re for

In my nightmare tonight, there’s volcanoes erupting 
A red hot web veining the land, it’s disgusting 
cracked mountains of madness, your hand in my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I’ll see me all consumed, 
and attempting to sing disharmonious tunes with you. 
Asynchronicity, I am in misery. I am in misery! 
What has been done to me? 
In my nightmare tonight (X4)

In my nightmare tonight I’ll see giant leviathans 
breaking the water in half with their shining skin 
riding them laughing you’ll be in my nightmare tonight 
you’ll be in my nightmare tonight

My Sober!Gamzee song “Little Clown” with the pitch-shifted voices removed, because a few people asked to hear it. :) No download cause I don’t really like it as much, but for those of you who were curious what it would sound like, well… here it is. :p

Nepeta Filk for aikastarr, my 1500th follower! My inner shipper came out, so this is equal parts Nepeta<>Equius and Nepeta<3Karkat (It’s also not actually as depressing as the track art makes it look).

We all have got a role to play 
the lioness she stalks her prey 
he’s bleeding in the tall grass, unaware his thrashing makes him easier to follow 
But when she gets him in her claws 
she’ll invite him in because 
her cave is not a home without him, just a hole that is lonely and hollow 

And can’t you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? 
It’s written there in soot and ash and blood and that’s furever. 
And so if you are terrified, of what you hide, remember 
That I’m still on your side, and that’s furever…furever… 

We all have got a role to play 
You’ll be filling yours someday 
and I’ll be filling mine until then we’re killing time, hunting monsters in our minds 
and when I see you standing strong 
Pretending you don’t want to play along 
I’ll never make you blue (or make you pay) I’ll tackle you into a pile to unwind 

And can’t you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? 
It’s written there in soot and ash and blood and that’s furever. 
And so if you have been denied, choke up your pride, remember 
That I am on your side, and that’s furever…furever…furever. 

I don’t have to argue, everybody knows you have issues, you lay your colors bare (in a manner of speaking) 
I’ll be there when you finally decide to bare your heart, it’s the part I want to share 

And I don’t have to argue, everybody knows you have issues, you wear them on your sleeves (so to speak) 
I’m not a thief, the only jewels that I need are your diamonds, and I find them following 

The bows and arrows, in your words 
The words behind your broken teeth 
The broken glass that’s under foot, and paw and hoof 
the high and low, whatever nonsense you believe 

The vast unknown laid out ahead, 
The tears and anger, good and bad 
The big adventure still at hand, and paw and whiskers. 
Grey, blue, red, whatever, I will understand! 

And can’t you see the writing on the wall is drawing us together? 
We’re written there in soot and ash and blood and that’s furever 
And so if I’ve been too discrete, let me repeat, remember 
That I’m still on your side, and that’s furever… furever… 

Furever.
