about

"Something Out of Nothing" is a compilation of the "best of" my music spanning 15 years and 5 albums, both solo and with my old band Mythica. I've hand-picked the best tracks based on popularity and feedback from my fans, as well as some of my personal favorites.

lyrics

Three degrees from PMDD to insanity
Diagnoses and psychotherapy
You're either too crazy or not crazy enough
It's true: it's the artist's Catch-22.

Well I love your "was-band" but just for his words
A short little bald man with a sexy tight verse
Could he give my man a pointer or two
On how to love a woman who's loosened her screws?

Did you get my postcard Carrie from the edge of my heart?
The one I mailed to you right before I jumped?
Oh it's a million miles from Denver to Newark
Will I ever get there before I fall apart?

I'm an imposter at an Al-Anon group
I need something stronger than this chicken soup
To heal my addiction to anonymous praise
To halt my quest for elusive fame.

A million miles, a million roads
One princess, a million toads
I do the show, I go home alone.
Carrie is this just how it goes?

Do you like this song about my mental state?
Too bad it won't see any radio play.
I guess the only way to get famous these days
Is to go "Gaga" half naked at the cabaret.
