4 years past the demise of Phillip Quinn
Day and a half, no sign of him
See, he was leading a double life
Left his home, kids, wife
Just rode away (just rode away)
Threw them away (threw them away)
Like the demise of Phillip Quinn
Reckless impatience got the best of him
10 years on, I have you
My impossible thing, I cherish you
Oh such an odd, random fate to meet
Train-stopping potato at Baker Street
Things so impossible they're true
Like my love, my unicorn, you
Blew by me away (blew me away)
Blow me away (blow me away)
Fragile things need to be treasured
And never put your lava lamp on a stove
It explodes.

trolls lining up for meal time
gobble you up and spit you out
content devoured in real time
forget to feed, they rail and shout
pay me our due
oh, we own you
Itch, gotta scratch
Yummy tasty snacks
dismiss, defame
"none of you matter, anyway"
discard all blame
long as you have your minute’s fame
snacks snacks
stacks up those snacks
in byte-size packs
snacks snacks
stacks up those snacks
in byte-size packs
snowflakes around are melting
torches are lit n' pitchforks out
"hey look at me i’m helping"
"if you offend me i will pout”
Give me my due
Yes, we own you
Sticky this web
Inside your head
dismiss, defame
"only we matter, by the way"
discard all blame
do it disguised in freedom's name
destroy, complain
nobody wins this game we play
nothing to say
but you will listen anyway
itch, i gotta scratch
itch, i gotta scratch it, scratch it
feeling so lonely
nothing is holy
please don't ignore me
i am hungry
somebody feed me
nobody sees me
please validate me
i am hungry

Just wanna make u happy
What will it take to feed your desires?
Why is it all or nothing?
Past and present start to unwind
Can’t you see? Feel the storms are comin'?
Blood boiling, hell-raising fire
Hear me--
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
pull the trigger
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
pull the trigger
So quick to justify
Too quick to add a face to the blame
Spiraling downward with no rhyme or reason
And it goes on and on and on
Ever, always the same
Don't say I didn't warn you
Stuck in denial
Don't say I didn't warn you
Run away
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
pull the trigger
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
pull the trigger
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
pull the trigger
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
pull the trigger
the time is now
it’s time for change
the time is now
it’s time for change

Exhilarating Calm

Wind Chimes and thighs
Breathless midnight sighs
Memories beyond the foam
Warm hands 'n energies are roaming
Drum beats in silence
Exhilarating calm
Soul balm
Not Tuesday afternoon
Evening comes too soon
Stay with me, my lover
Stay with me my lover
Stay
As you lay me down to sleep
Only me, my soul to keep
Make it matter, make it rain
Pick it up
Embrace the pain
Embrace the pain
Hearts beat their violence
Exhilarating calm
Exhilarating calm
Souls bond
Not Tuesday afternoon
Evening comes too soon
Stay with me, my lover
Stay with me, my lover

Mt. Lascivious

You are the summoner
of all these thoughts, so loose
I am lascivious
my hunger the shortest fuse
follow me and I'll follow you
leave trails of colourless hue
bring me there and I'll bring you too
watch the highest peak unglue
Ooh ——
two hearts weave on the precipice
one more for you, for me
burrow down, down, lovely
bring the stars down to see
landslide symphony
your tremors guide me through
pull me into another world
'till the morning shines anew
Ooh ——
lover hold me tight
lover hold me tight
lover lover
(lover hold me tight, lover lover hold me tight, lover lover)
We are lascivious
two lovers celestial swoon
You are the summoner
of the mountain we cant subdue

(siren song pulls you in)
find me in moonlight
i’m waiting for you
warrior journeyman
a song for me
a ballad to quell the tide of desire
the torment of eternal heartache
and solitude
I’ll tell you my true name
sing me the song in my eyes
hypnotized
speak no lies
ooh, fuck me till you come unhinged
ooh, come to me, me, me
ooh, fuck me till you come unhinged
ooh, come to me, me, me
(handfuls of shadow, moonbeams)
fire painting come to life
devours you
sudden thunder cracks your Heart of Stone
leave me the gift of remembrance
i’ll teach you the secret arts of love
measuring time with our bodies
Thousand Hands, Waves Upon Lilies.
ooh, fuck me till you come unhinged
ooh, come to me, me, me
ooh, fuck me till you come unhinged
ooh, come to me, me, me
tell me tales of the mortal
how I long for Murella
do not ask me of the seven
sing The Song Half Sung, my love

m ii d Vancouver, British Columbia
What was supposed to be a quick fling turned into a powerful partnership in life and music. A 19-years age difference should
have made them incompatible, but for Mathew Eklund and Zia, it just worked… And it keeps working. A true “May to December” romance that blossoms by the day.
Best friends. Lovers. Co-writers and producers. This Vancouver-based alternative duo is just getting started.
