Germane 06:00
My hallowed grimace as I stare into the mirror How infra dig I feel when I am being honest I've got my tits all in a funk again And I am pre-empting the denouement So I use ink Germane ink To paint purpose Paint intent But instead I feel ignored again So festeringly insecure again What makes you believe, Eastling? There's the Ibis staring again And that dark doom hanging over my head To show me this shattered intent So I paint on my face That I'm obsessive and jealous Coyote dances and sings And washes clean my effeminate gist Whining, whining about how hurt and sad my life has been I need a bigger head; to fit shit instead Because my head holds boundless dread And better would be shit there instead

It peels widdershins In this hullabaloo of life Old fragments stir blood into this Because I don't trust men And my father is dead Saturn leers And I'm taut and choked And I jeer As I cede my last hoke of god-lore From sepulchral worlds, gomes unleashed What you could do with these canopic jars There's a glut of unwashed chides Because I don't trust men And my father is dead Saturn leers And I'm taut and choked And I jeer As I cede my last hoke of god-lore I cannot reach you to release you Where are the old tomes to raise you To kiss you To feel you To see you Walk away Away

Heka 04:39
So harrowing When eventide's rest must come Feeling a fug resting Heavy on my chest Dudgeon Devours With devilish wings Thou shalt not stand alone Trailing the maimed vestige Of the theurgy of the world Dudgeon Devours Where to go from here? Betrayed by your god Your friend with knife in hand I hear a voice that lords

Charles East is a classically trained pianist and singer-songwriter from South Africa.

East's music addresses darker themes ranging from intolerance, isolation, and obsession to self-loathing and the agony of life with a voice that "dives and soars from the desperate edge of tender despair up to the raging heights of pure furious angst".
