“So You Think You’re Cursed” by Orville Neeley So you think you’re cursed Well, I know someone who’s been through worse Not to compete, I just believe that there’s nothing to envy So you think you’re cursed We all know someone who’s been through worse I thought I was too and I wanted to die I’ve had no excuse But the real curse lies in not trusting yourself The real curse lies in placing too much importance The real curse lies in what others will think What do they know So you think you’re cursed Maybe you are, could it get much worse? I take myself so seriously and I hate it Why can’t I be free From the feeling of guilt always taking over The feeling of guilt that I’ll never get over The real curse lies in the misleading lines That I tell myself

“We All Feel That Way” by Orville Neeley Would it kill you to look forward Would it kill you to laugh Is it better to be bored Or to bore someone else? If you’re gonna say it out loud Keep your voice down We’re not listening anyway Still we don’t wanna hear it If you feel bad, you know We all feel that way If you’re too shy Keep it to yourself Would it matter if you cried Would it kill you to be quiet Who’s it helping when you say That we all feel that way? If you feel bad, you know We all feel that way If you’re too shy Keep it to yourself If you feel bad We all feel that way

“Passage Unfamiliar” by Orville Neeley Perfume rags to cover my death bed Incense heat, only light where you tread Passage unfamiliar About face into destruction Exit discreet, who do you know Passage unfamiliar And I’m not so sure of myself anymore Mind is my bed, corpse is my coffin Long lay dead, smoked by the sun Passage unfamiliar Twilit home, starlit surrounding No one calls from this chasmic unknown There’s no way out, and no way around Once you enter, the only way is through Passage unfamiliar I’m not so sure about you anymore Passage unfamiliar And I’m not so sure of myself anymore Passage unfamiliar

City Of Gold 03:59
“City Of Gold” by Orville Neeley The city of gold does not contain The physical thing you want to attain Its riches lie buried within yourself Its riches lie buried in plain sight But those riches lie and your greed is absurd Within the realm of human ideas Without the thought or care The city of gold does not retain Questions nor memories of any remain Its answers lie buried within yourself Its answers lie buried in plain sight Its answers lie and you believe every word Within the realm of human creation Without the thought or care Within the realm of human experience Without the thought or care Its answers lie and you believe every word
