A Fantasy, A Possibility 04:41
lyrics

Whoa Silent visions controlling me And all I see is catastrophe I try to run much further than the human eye can see Oh, what do you want from me? It's what I'll never be But maybe I've run too far, oh baby And maybe I've flown too high I've lost control of all the complications Burning deep inside Maybe I've run too fast, oh baby And maybe I've hid too well I've shattered all your expectations And now, only time will tell Will tell me what's in front of me Is way too close to see Whoa Scattered ashes surrounding me And all I want is you close to me Hallucinations, a mighty kingdom of ecstasy Oh, that's where I want to be For all eternity But maybe I've run too far, oh baby And maybe I've flown too high I've lost control of all the complications Burning deep inside Maybe I've run too fast, oh baby And maybe I've hid too well I've shattered all your expectations And now, only time will tell Will tell me what's in front of me Is way too close to see It's just a fantasy, a possibility You'll never know Whoa

I'm Feeling Like Myself Again 05:34

I don't wanna talk I don't wanna talk about it It's out of control There's no other way around it now I'm waking up I'm feeling like myself again A new day has come I wanna be free and surround it I'm feeling like myself again It don't matter where or when And before I fall again I'll take it in and decide What's making me high I'm feeling like myself again It don't matter where or when And before I fall again I'll take it in and decide What's keeping me high I don't wanna think I don't wanna think about it A new world has taken me on There's no doubt about it now I'm waking up I'm feeling like myself again A new day has come It's time to be free and surround it I'm feeling like myself again It don't matter where or when And before I fall again I'll take it in and decide What's making me high I'm feeling like myself again It don't matter where or when And before I fall again I'll take it in and decide What's keeping me high And amongst the dark matter There exists a brilliant source of light Transmitting infinite frequencies of energy and sound Into the ever-evolving, fragile abyss But when you get there, wait for me I shall summon you upon the horizon Simple secrets will be unearthed To harness the power, the force, the might, the urge I'm feeling like myself again It don't matter where or when And before I fall again I'll take it in and decide What's making me high I'm feeling like myself again It don't matter where or when And before I fall again I'll take it in and decide What's keeping me high

Follow the Blind 05:48
lyrics

Voices cry out to me The shadows of my reality And softly, from a distant glow They'll make it right (make it right) Sweetly, they sing to me These colors are your ecstasy Just take my hand, there's more to see We'll make it right (make it right) Follow the blind The answer's waiting there for you I'm searching for a thousand questions Follow the blind The answer's coming back to you I'm reaching for a thousand answers Slowly, they carry me Into a place where none can see The visions of another realm They'll make it right (make it right) Gently, they call to me The echoes of my fantasy Into a vast infinity We'll make it right (make it right) Follow the blind The answer's waiting there for you I'm searching for a thousand questions Follow the blind The answer's coming back to you I'm reaching for a thousand answers Take me, slowly The rhythm's gonna take us over Touch me, gently The rhythm's gonna take us over now Rock me, baby The rhythm's got you mesmerized and It's too late to run It's too late to hide Follow the blind The answer's waiting there for you I'm searching for a thousand questions Follow the blind The answer's coming back to you I'm reaching for a thousand answers Follow the blind The answer's waiting there for you I'm searching for a thousand questions Follow the blind The answer's coming back to you I'm reaching for a thousand answers

Fascination (Across the Nation) 04:01
lyrics
buy track
Fashion spreads in magazines Predict the future race Automated Dairy Queens The invisible disgrace Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation Eyes glued to the silver screen Wireless display Ultimate reality All one click away Highly altered environments Enter at your risk Self-destruction dinner mints Please, just one more kiss Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation These enemies are killing me The stronger they get The harder it gets They're taking me over And over and over again Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation Fascination across the nation

about

I recorded this album in 2009 under the name MVSCLZ. RIP MVSCLZ! This album was my first foray into writing hyper synth pop music and producing electronic music. It was created entirely in GarageBand, and the vocals were recorded using a crappy $30 USB microphone from Office Depot. I remastered the trax in 2012, and here they are under the name Ben Aqua. Why the hell not? Hi. Enjoy.

credits

released December 9, 2009

Featuring guest vocal appearances by Dan Deacon, Ojay Morgan (Zebra Katz), Deena Oh (Low Red Center)
