Justin@BlindMouse thumbnail
Justin@BlindMouse Today’s psych rock collides with the late 80’s with the Cactus Flowers. Vocals reminiscent of Melissa Ethridge/ Alannah Myles, travel passionately alongside tight riffs of the desert nature.
Houston, we don’t have a problem!!
This is fire 🔥🌵🌸🌵🔥

Dead moon rising Inside my soul No one wants to be alone Awaken young flower No more freeze in the night Heartbeat’s racing, outta sight Feel my pulse C’mon baby, do it for me Pretty baby do you like what you see? Mystic mama’s gonna set you free Fire in her eyes Wavelengths scatter Fall to the ground Dare you not to make a sound New moon harvest Emits through your plight Discover your inner light Start a riot C’mon baby, do it for me Pretty baby do you like what you see? Mystic mama’s gonna set you free Fire in her eyes

Golden like the state she’s living in Retro-vibing lady, yeah she's hip Acid on her tongue, come take a trip Flowers in her hair Contemplative thoughts and no escape Everyone you meet is sealed in fate Acid mother guide makes you feel safe Flowers in her hair Do what you do Say what you say Get it all off your chest now Lightening parade And kisses in rain I love you a long-time honey You’ve got it all worked out And celebrating that you finally found home Ecstatically discover that your heart will always lead you home Transcending from the cosmic in a trance Overjoyed with love and happiness Meaning of your life is seen at a glance Flowers in her hair Unwind into your mind now, take a chance Open up your eyes, trust your empath Kaleidoscopic patterns and she has Flowers in her hair Go with the groove Swaying away Keep it all wavy baby I smile for days And kisses in rain I love you a long time honey You’ve got it all worked out And celebrating that you finally found home Ecstatically discover that your heart will always lead you home

I think of you often My bags are packed and I’m ready to sin I’m so amazed, the way that you do Holdin’ me down Quick witted with all your little lines I think of you and everything’s suspended in time Weightless feels, the way that it goes, way that it goes…. I think of you often Calming silence when we drift in the wind Just want to sing all the songs for you I'll sing to you You’re telling me all the time That you know you got a dirty little secret But I never really had the time to let it pull, pull! ….. holdin’ me down

Listen to your body Your vices tingle, fingertips And nameless desires Your bones are brittle when they break I need your compliance Don’t tell me what I need to think Enable your power – it's calling First you want out, but you can’t find out Be with the one you want When you make it right, you will fight Be with the one you want You want it, I’m buying Yeah drink it up and get your fill These nameless desires They're gonna break your every will Disaster turns violent Up against every trying pill Embrace it, keep trying – I'm calling First you want out, but you can’t find out Be with the one you want When you see the light, don’t fight Be with the one you want

Jaime 03:52
Oh my friend you told me that you chose sadness It didn’t choose you He said “Reserve your empathy for the weak – don't Worry what others enact to make them complete.” The wars are raging ‘round my head And the violence won’t let me sleep The life you make, the lives you take Is none of my business talking ‘round my face about distress - I’m distressed! Strike down all bewilderness And what’s left will set you free Jaime Vacations and holidays Another excuse but different time of year It’s like a guessing game You hold yourself back by the company you keep And to get love you need to find out Who you are – and what you believe Lies! You’ll tell yourself anything To justify your needs The life you make, the lives you take Is none of my business talking ‘round my face about distress – I'm distressed! Take time from what’s temptuous and let what’s natural run deep!

My Captain 03:35
Fury subsides, take it from the valley What is worth the price of feeling extraordinary ? Left out of the crowd that you followed so proud Who’s to blame? You you you you, you you you yeah you you you Marilyn ODed on barbituates And every girl will think of her Doin’ their eyes all prettied up Yeah they’re pin up dolls They’ll poke you with knives just to see if you’ll bite Stand your truth – be who you are! Cause treading on the line will only lead to desmise Be yourself! Be you you you you, be you you you be you you you Oh, don’t let me down I know you’re brave My captain

Get Free 03:17
I turn so blind that I can’t see nothing I feel it out – but nothing feels right Hesitant stepping is not in my nature Just wanna know a meaning of a true life I’m shaking all over Hush now child, your timing is never right Oh, can’t hear what they’re saying Hitting the road against all I’ve been told I can be Just tryin’ to get free Tripping on daisies and psychedelics Body floats through – I'm outta sight But what I’m seeing, the third eye can’t follow My future’s drawn and I’ll continue down that path I’ll take what I’m given But every day my trials grow in the past Oh, I’m lost in the visions Hitting the road against all I’ve been told I can be Just tryin’ to get free Purple haze mile high Making great strides in your life I go through the storms and the rain Echoing my mantra – I've been saved Just tryin’ to get free

Stockholm 04:49
I looked up to the sky – old memories come back to me Swedish time in the winter nights Making me feel so blue Night dreaming of our time here Kissing your face just one more time Walking around Gamla Stan Romance here – the city pulse is on! I can’t help but feel the way I do Without you – I plead – please come back to me! I’ve been blinded – blackened I just can’t see I feel like drowning – sinking deeper down! Walking to the river’s edge Wondering if I’ll say goodbye All of these feelings inside of me – dark feelings I just can't deny! I can’t help but feel the way I do Without you – I plead – please come back to me! I’ve been blinded – blackened I just can’t see I feel like drowning – sinking deeper down! X 3

Be Here Now 03:56
I, I can remember A day's past life, in a moment, afterlife I don’t, I do not know just where your love grows When you think of me You, you’ll always find me In times of doubt I know you'll be there for me I don’t I do not know just where your love grows – mine's in front of me Be Here Now X 4 You! You’ll always find me When no one is left I will hold your hand in peace The feud is only fueled by what you say and your bad attitude I, I’ll always love you Enchantment guide so you’ll never have to speak I don’t, I do not know just where your love grows – mine's in front of me Be Here Now X 4

Wanderer 02:24
You are a wanderer You never know, never know just what you want Unguided treks of life You never know, never know just what you want You’ll go away - quit wasting my time You’ll go away – I won’t sit and wonder why Gotta hitch another ride Don’t feed me no more bullshit lines Don’t lie awake, don’t lie awake Don’t lie awake – I will feed you for days – I'll you’ll swallow Don’t lie awake, don’t lie awake Don’t lie awake – you'll be mine ‘til the day breaks I was a wanderer I never knew, never knew just what I want I got this heart of mine – and it heals the holes just before they start You are aware of the space you can bare I will heal your heart from a hollowed start if you’ll take the time to make the care Don’t lie awake, don’t lie awake Don’t lie awake – I will feed you for days – I'll you’ll swallow Don’t lie awake, don’t lie awake Don’t lie awake – you'll be mine ‘til the day breaks
