Cut to Black by Wherestoday
From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub Co-produced with Dangerace - - - LYRICS I guess it's true, we won the lottery Hey I'm just quoting your sayings Does it make your eyes watery We're not in charge of your feelings You're facing another lifestyle allegory But you stand on the wrong side of history We just ended up here after finding our way And we're not going away You're gonna fall And get back up As a figure part of us Just answer the call We won't backtrack If you're about to attack (Now cut to black) It's bold to say that we're not meant to be Have you looked at your reflection It was never a matter of he or she We ain't too fond of deflection You're quick to mischaracterize an entity Yet had no say in your assigned identity Just some introspection brought us all outta there And we're not going anywhere You're gonna fall And get back up As a figure part of us You've answered the call So don't fall back The code is about to crack (Now cut to black) Ladies, gents, and everyone else We're in our rightful place Men of Venus, women of Mars And travelers among the stars Time to claim our space Let's go! - - - Cut to Black's main riff was thought of in September of 2013, and was shelved for several years. Only when I had gotten better at composing with LMMS I decided to add on to the idea. I got ideas for lyrics sometime in 2017. At first it stemmed from an argument a previous music teacher of mine and I had about whether or not DJs and electronic music producers were actually musicians. I got inspired to write the first few lines about my anger that someone would refuse to label me a certain way. Coincidentally, as I was living the reality of being transgender in modern times, I realized that the topic I had started writing about reminded me of people who refuse to acknowledge and treat us with respect. Thus, the lyrics turned into an aggressive hymn against anyone who would dare stand in our way to freedom and equality.

From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub - - - LYRICS Have you heard the sound of the breaches Something we can outrun Gotta get out of what it teaches Something I've never done I don't wanna know The ultimate consequence It is not my type to predict if I stooped low By taking the chance I just wanna go If you are somewhat nearby Together it's worth the try One of these days we're gonna find a way To get that far Feel no more daze because we're here to stay It's who we are Have you seen the podium of speeches Somewhere we are unknown Gotta look at what our heart reaches Somewhere we haven't grown I don't wanna blow My only opportunity It is not my type to hide and not take the chance I didn't stoop this low I don't wanna go If you aren't somewhat nearby The world is ours to defy One of these days we're gonna find a way To get that far Feel no more daze because we're here to stay It's who we are One of these days we're gonna find a way To heal our scars Feel no more daze because we're here to play Among the stars One of these days - - - This was my first experiment with electronic rock. I used samples I hadn't used before, and tried my very best to make this track sound like mainstream rock. I released it on its own on SoundCloud, then remastered it for release on this album.

From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub Co-produced with Pay Per Vu Tenor saxophone sample by Francis Viau - - - LYRICS Opened the door With just the tip of her finger What she's up to is what I wonder All bottled up I'm a lil' boy trapped on her calendar But not for any longer I caught her eye, she grins with grace There's no escape, I'm losing face Her concoction is on the case It's reaching for me without a trace Wizard girl Cast your spell on me (All I want is more) Can't take it anymore Wizard girl Why did you pick on me (All I want's your soul) Babe take me as a whole Opens the door Still with the tip of her finger What can she do with all the others She's gettin' something It's not the time to just linger Gotta satisfy my hunger Let's say we're not like we once were Perhaps I just wanna become her First I'll break free and set the pace And hopefully I'll get to third base Wizard girl Cast your spell on me (All I want is more) Can't take it anymore Wizard girl Why did you pick on me (All I want's your soul) Babe you're my ultimate goal Open your eyes Did you realize your reign's over No time to talk, I'm takin' over She's so surprised I made it out and I fooled her Now it's all in my favor Your medicine, do you like its taste Let it sink in, while I hold your waist I've waited quite for your embrace Tonight our love will fill up the place Wizard girl Cast your spell on me (All I want is more) Can't take it anymore Wizard girl Now it's your turn to see (All I want's your soul) You're not alone at all - - - This took about a year to fully develop. I started production on this track, but found the definitive, 90s-esque sound many months later, as I continued contributing with new samples. In a literal sense, this track is about a little boy captured by this magical lady he becomes infatuated and obsessed with after she forces him to consume a mysterious elixir that fills his mind with lustful thoughts. Metaphorically, this song is about my confusing entrance into adolescence, as the search for my true gender identity was suddenly clouded by a puberty-induced sex drive that, at first, blinded me with self-loathing, and, glasses that were tinted (and tainted) with misogyny.

Holding On by Wherestoday
From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub - - - LYRICS I'm a mess, I don't care if it wasn't properly disclosed I don't know how to go on without you More or less, now the door for our road together is closed Should I go on my own without you Thinking of memories makes me lose pace Cause well, the past sure seems so seamless But there's a part of me that I just won't chase Cause well, we've only scratched the surface But I don't want to erode by the sands of time For my attempts reduced to dust Will I lose my life at the hands of my pastime To lust what I cannot trust, is this what we wanted? Tell me why my faith's broken to the core I gotta try not to stare at the world from a dome So now that you're gone, it's my turn to stop to roam I am in the wrong so I'll sing along Cause I'm holding on until the cows come home You're at rest, though you pretty much kept our dreams afloat High or low, they were hard to get through We're the best, through the cruel tidal waves we hung on to the boat But the flow never looked so blue Mystery can't appease my internalized race Cause well, the future seems so heartless And there's a part of me that'll take its place Cause I forbid myself to lose face But I don't want to erode by the sands of time For my attempts reduced to dust Will I lose my mind at a mountain I can't climb And adjust to a life unjust, this ain't what we wanted Tell me why my faith's broken to the core I gotta try not to stare at the world from a dome So now that you're gone, it's my turn to stop to roam I am in the wrong so I'll sing along Cause I'm holding on until the cows come home We keep our heads in the storm clouds To live out of thinking out loud But can we count on ephemeral sparks To survive in the dark Tell me why my faith's broken to the core I gotta try not to stare at the world from a dome So now that you're gone, it's my turn to stop to roam I am in the wrong so I'll sing along Cause I'm holding on until the cows come home Until you come back home - - - I began writing the lyrics of Holding On sometime in 2015, following the departure of a once very close friend of mine. The song was fully thought out by 2016, and the music was completed by February of 2018. This song is dedicated to a friend whom I used to feel inseparable to. Times change, people change, and lights eventually go out. Just remember to hold on when they do. Darkness, too, is ephemeral.

Ego by Wherestoday
From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub Guitar sample by Félix Beaudoin - - - LYRICS Save me from my mischief For I have a second belief A motive for another relief Misguided without a chief This world knows how to deceive But I see what no one will percieve A reflection I believe Is it time for me to leave My ego's the only thing I know I gotta keep up and stay in the shadow Long ago it was the risk I took My life is made up for their lack of outlook They've grown alongside their tease They all seem to get to you with ease It's no wonder your faith may decrease Some even to their own decease I will both die and grieve Think of it like Adam and Eve Trapped in one conflicted body It's finally her turn to be My ego is nothing but hollow Should I keep up, the world is so shallow All you know's the cover of the book I'll now open up for everyone to look (Born a man) It's time to break my mold and man it should be easy Cause there is nothing more fragile than masculinity You shed blood sweat and tears to stop whoever's like me 'Til we're compelled to live the same but quite literally You're capable to acknowledge the minority So set aside your ignorance and show some empathy To be open isn't a statement made politically Have you forgot the basic tenets of humanity Don't you dare to compare We're just like you, we just want a share We're defined, we're assigned Differing makes us the bane of mankind Cram these lines in your mind To respect us won't cost you a spine We're one kind, one bloodline And I wish we were all colorblind Your ego will break in half also The choice to grow up belongs to yourself though I'll be with you when you see what's in store You'll reap what you sow like the skins we all once wore - - - Ego heavily samples a riff from Félix Beaudoin, a fellow musician and friend I used to make music with, in his hard rock band Victims of Time. During one jam session, he was messing around with the riff and I quickly started writing lyrics for it. Nothing came out of it, so I continued writing and, eventually, he recorded a snippet and let me use it as a sample. The song somewhat straightforwardly talks about my past struggles with breaking out of the toxic mold I was forced into, and finally came out as transgender. The lyrics are an aggressive response to transphobic rhetoric and hate crimes I've been powerlessly witnessing.

The Way In by Wherestoday
From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub - - - The Way In was made within a day, on February 14th 2018, release day of Danne Harvey and I's Lit Club Vibes album. At the time, I had reached a dreadful point in my life: I was severely depressed and unable to work, I recently had a death in the family, and relationship problems galore. My escape at the time was the game Doki Doki Literature Club, as well as the album Danne and I were heavily working on. This instrumental song is an ode to Monika, the antagonist of the game, as well as a symbol of my entry into the community, which would help me deal with my symptoms and everyday struggles.

From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub - - - I made this track for Emily, a fellow artist I met in the Doki Doki Literature Club community in 2018. We very quickly became close friends despite the distance and related to each other's struggles. We officially became girlfriends on July 1st, 2018, after I traveled in several Greyhound buses for three days straight in order to see her, on the other side of the continent. The audio you hear at the beginning was recorded during said trip; the outro was recorded on board of a plane, on my way back home, eight days later.

From The Outcast Qlub Download now: https://wherestoday.bandcamp.com/album/the-outcast-qlub - - - Same story, different name Same glory, changing gains Just don't be sorry, we'll just move on I understand you were carried away You'll have regrets for me to look upon But I swear it's fine cause we will find a way I know we've come this far And I won't stop So now aim for the stars Then weigh up then and now Same story, different games We were young and free, we lived in flames This creeping anxiety will carry on Showing its fangs in a strive for its prey To tame this beast makes you feel like a pawn But it's worth it all when you invite it out to play I know we've come this far And I won't stop So now aim for the stars Then weigh up then and now - - - For a reflection of myself from a long time ago.
