⚠️ EXTREME CONTENT WARNING — SET LIST SEVEN — TRAIN OFF THE TRACKS Lead Rating: NC-17 | GX Source: 30 / Calculated: 32 ⚠️ ⚠️ THIS IS THE MOST SEVERE SET IN THE CATALOG. MANDATORY LISTENER ADVISORY BELOW. Set List Seven represents the most severe, confrontational, and psychologically destabilizing body of work in the catalog. These compositions do not imply, suggest, or allegorize harm — they depict it directly. The material engages with violence, abuse, coercion, and moral collapse without mitigation, moral instruction, or emotional resolution. MAJOR AND SEVERE TRIGGERS PRESENT: SEXUAL ASSAULT / RAPE "Betrayal" contains explicit and graphic depictions of rape, including a minor victim, coercive language spoken by the perpetrator, physical assault, and resulting pregnancy. Written from the victim's perspective without redemptive resolution. CHILD ABUSE / GROOMING / IDEOLOGICAL INDOCTRINATION "Daddy Taught Me" depicts KKK indoctrination of a child written from inside the child's innocent perspective — the horror emerges through dramatic irony. "Innocence Lost" addresses the theft of childhood safety. MASS VIOLENCE / SNIPER IMAGERY / GUN VIOLENCE "Sniper's Song" is a first-person monologue from a sniper's perspective — lifted from real DC Sniper coverage (Washington Post, October 4, 2002). "Quest for Immortality" contains mass violence ideation including bomb imagery. SUICIDE / SELF-ANNIHILATION IDEATION "Wheat and Chaff" documents suicide in unflinching narrative. "Quest for Immortality" contains self-annihilation ideation. "Betrayal" ends with implied suicidal resolution. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE / COERCIVE CONTROL "Betrayal," "Corey Story," and "Daddy Taught Me" contain depictions of domestic violence, coercive family structures, and cycles of abuse. RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM / SPIRITUAL ABUSE "Daddy Taught Me" depicts KKK religious framing presented as innocent family tradition. The cognitive dissonance is deliberate and structural.

Tom action required. ❗ LISTENER ADVISORY — MANDATORY: This material should be avoided by individuals with trauma sensitivities related to sexual violence, child abuse, or gun violence.

Either Way ⚠️ NC-17 (first Part — partial) (1) COREY STORY His mama was a nurse and his daddy sold jewels A couple hard working stiffs But both were fools If the boys got outta line parents kept their cool They'd never make a fuss just leave 'em to the school Too busy working to have to raise kids Right there ya find out where the problem is When little boys break the rules daddy's too drunk to yell He tried to chase 'em up the stairs but down he fell When you make your own rules how hard can life be? Mom's sitting on the couch just watching TV Yet it takes more to be a mom than just making dinner Gotta teach your kids to play the game of life to be a winner All you need's a @#$% to be a father but it takes balls to be a dad I wish they read this story I really wish they had I always tried to use my brain while my friend he used his brawn Now I got it made While my friend barely gets along His daddy read him beer bottles while my daddy read me books When life gets ugly you can't get by on looks Me and my daddy played throw and catch Him and his daddy played throw and duck When life gets ugly you can't get by on looks When you got no smarts you get by on luck And when that runs out it really sucks (2) DADDY TAUGHT ME When I was little My daddy dressed me in white He said so he could lead me Through the darkness and into the light Mama washed my clothes Nearly every day For I'd get them dirty Whenever I'd play She told me that if it wasn't white Then it wasn't good If the weather got chilly She'd pull up my hood Mama told me of Jesus and God And of Heaven divine I asked if I'd go there And she said I'd be fine She said I was pure And God made me snow And that angels would follow me Wherever I'd go I couldn't wait to see God And tell him what was on my mind I even tried praying a couple of times But church was much different Than what I ever though it would be We'd have mass outside And we'd light a big 'T' I had so much fun When we'd march in parades Then we'd set fire To the crosses we made And I love the holidays They fill me with cheer We loved Halloween so much We had it twenty times a year For some reason I was always a ghost Must be the costume my mama liked most Funny how no one ever got scared Even when I was trying Oh, there was that one…. The little girl who was crying I'm not even sure why She had tears in her eyes I really scared her good I must have caught her by surprise I can't wait to get older And be a daddy some day I'll teach these games to my kids And the whole family will play When I get older... I'll be the best daddy I can be I just hope I can teach my kids as good As my daddy taught me (3) SHADOW OF SMOKE Just a shadow of smoke That's how I appear Try to reach out and touch me What you see disappears No living soul can reach me First you see my face Vanish into thin air And then gone without a trace Just another mystery A puzzle no one can solve First I am there And then I dissolve Just a castle of sand Before the tide comes to me And after a warm embrace Carries me out to the sea So back into the fog I fade My own little solitary parade Back into the waters I wade Unable to undo all I have made I've lost my soul Through the horrors I've seen Along with my past desires Of all I could have been To the days of old I can never return Time passes slowly When the memories still burn As I see children laugh And young mothers dance I know I've lived my life There is no second chance Just a shadow of smoke That's how I appear Try to reach out and touch me What you see disappears (4) WHEAT AND CHAFF Your suicide was glorified Like a police chase on the news Neither your vanity or your family Was enough to pull you through When you crashed in the past You walked away unscathed This time you fell it didn't go so well The saviour was not saved The memories are overwhelming As they all come flooding back You feel yourself being swept away The dam burst where it was cracked Such an explosion of emotion Leaving everyone taking flak "His war is over" the priest spoke sober Then a scream, a yell, a gasp So for the cries and for the laughs Let us raise our glass up to the past To both the wheat and the chaff For all that was left undone And for what can't be taken back (5) MIDAS TOUCH What has once been bought has now been sold Your Midas touch turned me into gold Never to grow young never to grow old Death does part forget to have and hold Sickness is health as warmth becomes cold A face once beautiful is now pale and blue Crumbling down what was once brand new The question is not how or why or when but who? The lesson is be careful of what you wish for Because it just might come true... The wink of the eye of your future wife The turn of a corner and the stab of a knife Just a second could change your life So beware of what's around you Be aware of where you go Because you never really know... After your next step After your next breath There could be one life and one death Forget all the rest (6) SNIPER'S SONG ⚠️ NC-17 Who am I? And what are my reasons? I've got my rifle by my side And it's hunting season I'm just another face in the crowd Waiting to make my next move Eight A.M. and I'm already out on the prowl I wonder just how long I can keep my cool Random is the way it has to be Can't have any motive or connection Following after me One bullet at a time I write the headlines of the front page I am God, I am death, I am your old age At random Or in seclusion I am reality This is no illusion Who am I? And what are my reasons? I've got my rifle by my side And it's hunting season I'm just another face in the crowd Waiting to make my next move Nine A.M. and I'm already out on the prowl I wonder just how long I can keep my cool Go about your business This sniper will find you Look over your left shoulder I am right behind you You cannot see me I am in seclusion Death is reality I am no illusion Who am I? And what are my reasons? I've got my rifle by my side And it's hunting season I'm just another face in the crowd Waiting to make my next move Ten A.M. and I'm already out on the prowl I wonder just how long I can keep my cool Some may call me crazy But I don't see it that way I am just another hunter And you are all my prey I could be your neighbor I could be your best friend I could be a terrorist But only when you catch me... Will you be safe again (7) QUEST FOR IMMORTALITY ⚠️ NC-17 I have finally found a reason for waking up It is my job to unite the legions Who just don't give a fu$% When you're laying foundations of concrete You had better stand clear For in the name of progress Sometimes a few people disappear One more voice left unheard Amidst the deepest of frustrations Only one man could kill with complete racial equality I would drop the bomb without any hesitation Just waiting for the man to come calling on me I would drop the bomb without any reservations Nah, I told myself I've got to give in And live on the same grid as the competition No more applying my time to going fishing inside of my mind But please just one more time for the sake of mankind If I could just find the perfect poetic lines Maybe then my hatred would mend So I'll keep on searching for another solution Or else I'll plot out my own demise... the final end My presence is important Just the fact that I roam the earth Makes it all but certain That I could be the one who lifts the curtain Or perhaps be the person Who pushes the button Snaps, cracks and attacks All of a sudden I start putting people in the oven Dozen by dozen by dozen The time has come Face it... it's done I will never be the chosen one Better go and grab the gun And see how fast these clowns can run No, not everybody's presence is a gift Yet still you've got to learn to live with it (8) INNOCENCE LOST I've sat at every bench in this park Both before and after dark Looking out at an ocean oh so deep When everyone else is asleep I see the sailboats stopped Lookin' just like upside down lollipops I see the seagulls pecking Down by the beach But it all seems out of reach Take off my shirt to get a tan Wondering about life's master plan Just when my troubles start to fade away I have to go to work soon so I cannot stay But oh what a price I pay... As soon as you're high Something brings you down As soon as you smile Something makes you frown As soon as you blink The second has passed As soon as you're first You wind up last This world can be such a tease As soon as I feel That my mind's at ease Just when I think I have it made Rain falls down on my parade I've had my shares Of ups and downs Cried like mimes And laughed like clowns I've been dwarfed by guilt And knocked off of my stilts I've seen the flowers bloom And I have watched the pedals wilt Here at the park I collect my thoughts Try to find a pair of scissors When I'm tied up in knots Then these words Became my thoughts... As soon as you're high Something brings you down As soon as you smile Something makes you frown As soon as you blink The second has passed As soon as you're close You run out of gas I watch the children I've seen so many times before And their innocent eyes Not yet knowing what's in store With every game comes a new surprise Every truth told contains At least a part of a lie Under a parent's eye they run so free Not a worry in the world The way life should be And yet as they grow a little older The winds blow a little colder But we all know it is calm Before the storm Mommy still has a blanket To keep them warm She protects them for as long as she can There are some things children Should never have to understand Don't tell them the secret... As soon as you're high Something brings you down As soon as you smile Something makes you frown As soon as you blink The second has passed As soon as the sun rises The shadow's been cast Yes I was once a child many years ago And I learned the hard way The things I didn't know Life was once so simple But like a gunshot to the temple I was told I couldn't go any higher And then was thrown into the fire Now all I can do is dream Back to the days When my own eyes did gleam Someday when everyone is asleep That same child will come here to weep And they too will write their song About how the innocence They once knew is gone And they'll say... As soon as I'm high Something brings me down As soon as I smile Something makes me frown As soon as I blinked My childhood passed What I loved so much... I want it back (9) BETRAYAL ⚠️ NC-17 What will her friends say? What wild rumors will be spread? Where lies her escape? These thoughts run 'round in her head She had been bruised inside Blood trickled down the side of her face He was twice her size She was just half his age She fought so hard but she was unable to resist That's okay, I like it better this way, he hissed When she tried to say no with her knee He said yes with his fist But luckily, when he swung he had missed… At least the first time He pinned her down Leaving red welts on her wrists? To mom and dad she cried: I'm sorry to have to tell you this: But Jesus wasn't the only one Who was betrayed by a kiss Yet never in Sunday school did they ever cover this… And this was her first time What will her friends say? What wild rumors will be spread? Where lies her escape? So many thoughts run round in her head Once it was known That his seed had been sewn She carried the child like a disease For when the baby came How could she explain That a rapist's eyes were all that she sees What will her friends say? What wild rumors will be spread? Where lies her escape? So many thoughts run round in her head Conflicting voices whisper in her ear She tries to drown them out but they won't disappear Her pastor's sermons and a voice that she hadn't heard before Every day that voice Speaks louder… She knows soon It will speak no more… (10) COP ASKED THE WITNESSES A cop asked the witnesses Did you see the driver of the car? The witnesses responded She couldn't have gone that far It's amazing where fate'll bring you All the way to a cell It's amazing where fate'll bring you Down to the depths of hell The night was dark and dreary The rain was pouring down The faces of the happy Were quickly turned to frowns November twenty-sixth And there's not much thanks to give It's hard to be rejoiceful When daddy didn't live A cop asked the witnesses Did you see the driver of the car? The witnesses responded She couldn't have gone that far Mommy ran into a restaurant Screaming someone hurt my love Mommy showed the owner The broken wings of her dove Two lives were almost taken As soon as they begun A two year-old child And the young driver on the run People dressed in black Now put flowers on his grave Daddy died a great hero And his little girl he did save A father's life is over And a family torn apart A mother's constant weeping And a child's bleeding heart A cop asked the witnesses Did you see the driver of the car? The witnesses responded She couldn't have gone that far There's fresh blood on the sidewalk And tears fallen to the ground Flowers on a gravestone And a deeply saddened town About the girl on the run Are you sorry for your sin? Your only chance at Heaven Is turning yourself in (11) DIRT Who's got the dirt on you? Or maybe you've been keeping secrets from yourself Do you know who I've been talking to? No it wasn't her it was somebody else… Ooh, I see someone's afraid of sunlight Stays lurking in the shadowy realm To only be happy when it's cloudy Would seem to me to be trapped in a living hell Who's got the dirt on you? Won't you whisper just what your little secret is worth Certainly no one could have deserved this Never seen you look so nervous... your eyes darting back and forth Well sure we all make mistakes Yet this one was so easy to trace You didn't look guilty just heavily disgraced That would best describe the look on your face Who's got the dirt on you? Has anyone offered to cut you a deal? Or are they just letting out the line? Let you run a little knowing they hold the reel (12) EITHER WAY ⚠️ NC-17 *(first Part — full version TBC)* I'm a vessel of violence Live alone on an island I can never keep silent They keep playing violins To cover everybody's crying I got no one to hear me No family lives near me No friends close by No friends at all - that was a lie No one to call or stop by That's why sometimes I cry You would to When I got nothing to do It gives me something to do Many say medicate don't educate Become an arsonist to your history Self-knowledge just drags in complication When some things are best left a mystery The agony of meeting expectations Has led to the cancelling of many celebrations In both your honor and your name Yeah, it was all for you but you never came If you only die when you're forgotten Anonymity must sure be rotten The value of reality lies in immateriality For everything that lives externally dies Though the worth of life is measured by the soul Which we all know can be compromised The choice could be fame or integrity Will you have riches or character? That is what she said to me Now you know why everybody's after her She gives like its charity With instant familiarity A true gem that's a rarity Indeed she's looking so lovely Those brown eyes gazing back at me Feeling like there's no one above me As she stares right through me It's like she's always knew me Let us hope she never forgets Remember... you can't give somebody everything Because then you'd have nothing left!
