My Good Doctor, you wrote:

>>Your music is simply very energizing Jon Lyle - bravo! Is this album
actually a
solid response to all the previously inconclusive thousand or so posts
theorizing on making microtonality popular to the lowest common
denominator by
some optimal 12-EDO alternative scale or whatnot? I would like to think
so.

I can't sleep at all
your voice haunts me the night long
and after the sun goes down to dark
your shadow slips through my walls

I still feel your touch
holding me, I'm in thrall
there will be no tender dreams for me
none at all, none at all

I can't sleep tonight
your eyes are far too bright
so Morpheus won't visit me
your face is all I can see

another day, another mood
sometimes it's sweet, sometimes it's blue
it seems to be so black or white
but always wrong and always right

my little friends are back again
they stay with me right to the end

the mind will turn like ocean tides
the head too small for what's inside
so shut the door but break the glass
the peace of mind can never last

my little friends are back again
they stay with me right to the end

you hide away and run so far
but can't escape from who you are
an angel voice, a devil's touch
you take a pill 'cause it's too much

my little friends are back again
they stay with me right to the end

you stand next to me
but I'm so far from you
you still cannot see
don't know what I can do
who's there you cannot see?
someone anonymous
what can this really be?
it's so anomalous

it's so strange this way
I am here but nowhere
in the light of day
I'm just a shadow there
who's there you cannot see?
someone anonymous
what can this really be?
it's so anomalous

something anomalous
and it's very strange to me
something anomalous
and it's very strange to me

turn your eyes this way
hear the words I say
something strange
something strange

so you walk on by
I wasn't there anyhow
nothing to meet the eye
fade into blackness now
who's there you cannot see?
someone anonymous
what can this really be?
it's so anomalous

turn your eyes this way
hear the words I say
something anomalous
and it's very strange to me
something anomalous
and it's very strange to me

something strange
something strange
something strange
something strange

I know just how you feel
searching for the thing that's real
give me electricity
and tell me what you need from me

we were always meant to be
united for eternity
metallic love will stay for you
while flesh and bone will never do

I was made for you
I was made for you
I was made for you
I was made for you
