Ghost

I have to go, I don’t want to stay here, all so exposed like a ghost.
But you’re just like me you waste away your weekend, searching for something that you’ve lost.
So shed this dead weight, turn into me.
Shed this dead weight, turn into me.
I run back and forth in between my shoulders or in circles around my own head.
I run with very little sense of purpose, unsure if I’m in pursuit or running from.
So shed this dead weight, turn into me.
Shed this dead weight, turn into me.
So shed this dead weight, turn into me.
Shed this dead weight, turn into me.

Take me to my grave. Let me sleep these days away.
Your room is a tomb and your covers comfort me.
Why did you have to wake so soon?
I don’t want to go outside ’cause I don’t want to lose my mind.
I just want to stay in bed ’cause I don’t want to lose my head.
I know you have to leave so go. I will wait for you to come for me.
I’ll be right here where I am that is one thing you could understand.
I don’t want to go outside ’cause I don’t want to lose my mind.
I just want to stay in bed ’cause I don’t want to lose my head.
So much to tell me but I don’t want to hear a thing.
There’s so much out there we can see but nothing like this day dream
I don’t want to go outside ’cause I don’t want to lose my mind.
I just want to stay in bed ’cause I don’t want to lose my head.

Get Away
01:54

Sometimes I get lost in my mind I just space.
The southern wall, her quiet fall, I can’t take.
Say the word, say my name.
Take me out, find me my way.
Her body breaks when she dances that way I just fade.
Now we’re alone. I can’t answer my phone. I'm a waste.
Say the word, say my name.
When summer comes I won’t fall in love, I’ll just tame.
Her little heart, it might make a spark but it won’t flame.
She won’t wait, I’ll just get away in my car.
Say the word, say my name.
Take me out, find me my way.

Days away don’t concern me now ’cause I’m on my way, I’m on my way out.
But somehow, I’m here where I am now. Something brought me back again. Somewhere I got turned around.
So here we are with all this time and all this space to move through. But we go nowhere you’ve got to guide me away.

Timeless Silence

Former lover, there is no other though you have discovered these truths that I’ve covered.
I never loved them just spent the night with ’em when I was alone and you were so far from it.
Now it’s safer to say nothing, always. So long time takes. I’ll wait, always.
No rings ’round cut diamonds though our love was timeless, the times which we started made love that much harder. So young and so freely we fell oh so deeply. Now you’re so far still I hear your heart weeping.
Now it’s safer to say nothing, always. So long time takes. I’ll wait, always.
Our families still tied in, our friends undivided. These circles still rung though the pain has subsided. Still one day I see me and you united. This story’s untold until time has decided.
Now it’s safer to say nothing, always. So long time takes. I’ll wait, always.

Left of Center

Turn around, left of center to me. Take it down, there’s no need to worry.
’Cause you threw it all on me as far as I could see.
Now don’t divine, turn this into something. Out of time, it boils down to nothing.
’Cause you threw it all on me as far as I could see.
Take me through the things you do, tell me I’m no good.
Tell me all the things you need, I don’t know if I could.
Just take me through the things you do, tell me I’m no good.
Tell me I’m the only one, I don’t know if I could.
’Cause you threw it all on me as far as I could see.

Send me a line and I’ll make time.
They call out your name, are you alive?
You say, “I don’t wanna waste my time.
No, I don’t wanna go through this again.
I don’t wanna waste my time, every damn night.”
So understand me now, do what you do best.
Just don’t regret anything that you’ve said.
‘Cause if you meant it then, why are we still alone?
“It’s not so simple, babe,” is all you have to say…
Even though it breaks my heart that you’re so far,
At least we still talk, off and on.
Say, do you ever think sometimes
Maybe we can just play along with them
Make believe that everything’s fine and it will be?
Just understand me now, do what you do best.
And don’t regret anything that you’ve said.
‘Cause if you meant it then, why are we still alone?
“It’s not so simple, babe,” is all you have to say…
There’s a certain kind of taste under my tongue,
It’s in my nose and in my lungs
Know me now, know me now, know me now.
So understand me now, do what you do best.
Just don’t regret anything that you’ve said.
‘Cause if you meant it then, why are we still alone?
“It’s not so simple, babe,” is all you have to say…

Sick Sad Boy

Man tonight was such a blast. I think I’ll make it home if I drive fast. ’Cause lately things have got me down like half a xan, a 40 ounce. ’Cause no one cares if you broke your heart or if you don’t care or think you’re too smart.
Sick sad boy, you ain’t nothing to love. On a bad night, throw it all to the wall. Throw it all to the wall. Throw it all to the wall. Throw it all to the wall.
Now don’t tell me that I’ve had enough. I’m my own grown man and I act real tough. I like to drink until I’m numb and smoke myself until I’m dumb. It’s a little oath that I’ve made myself, to stay at odds with everyone else. ’Cause it’s a cruel, cruel, cruel world so I stay out of love and don’t try enough.
Sick sad boy, you ain’t nothing to love. On a bad night, throw it all to the wall. Throw it all to the wall. Throw it all to the wall. Throw it all to the wall.
I have these dreams of me in flight, gone away from this tired life. Sometimes I close my eyes and drive along sea cliffs above the tide. But then I shake and I turn the wheel. I see the view, I love this feel. It’s kinda like the dreams I have when I’m not awake and doing bad.

Take my picture but don’t ask my name ’cause I don’t want them to know me but I do want to be seen.
Turn me to the sun, watch me fade away. Leave me in the pouring rain, to me it’s all the same.
Lay me behind framed glass, hang me on your wall. Don’t think of me as the one’s who’s lost and I’ll try and do the same.
Turn me to the sun, watch me fade away. Leave me in the pouring rain, to me it’s all the same.
Turn me to the sun, watch me fade away. Leave me in the pouring rain, to me it’s all the same.

Rosie Plaza Oakland, California
Rosie Plaza's wields a unique sound that shifts between 90s to mid-aughts indie rock and 80s post-punk. Complete with angular guitar riffs, melodic bass lines, and driving drums, Rosie Plaza writes songs that are at the same time poignantly sentimental and nostalgically angsty, drawing comparisons to bands like The Chameleons, New Order, the Smashing Pumpkins, Silversun Pickups, & Cloud Nothings. ... more
