about

The outlier resides at the fringes of society which influences its existence in both good and bad ways. There is a voice in the shadows, a need, desire, endurance, and hope. There is struggle, denial, song, and opinion. If society only cared to welcome the outlier without judgment, what becomes revealed is a reflection of the mirroring human experience.

lyrics

OUTLIER
Orphan eyes won't lose the glow, bracing hard for care and guidance. Wayward signs they point to growth, the eastern show, oil, and Midas. Come then, toss your key to the outlier. Okay, that's fine, says the deep forest. Show a-good-face-and-tail the selfish titans, who take the pie and kill the crust for good.

Don't go insane while the safe core chokes. Spin those dreams on the site of the sacred spokes. Serve rainbow cakes and recycled paper planes. Bring it on, face the truth. Welcome home the outlier, and say it all in one sentence.

Say it, say it (the wasteful pride, wasted away, waste)—

The cold face of death makes you light a candle. You don't drink the wine so you wait outside (the bar). Wait, go impress a child and do something good, love is not a plateau you should praise. Yea, wait your turn in line to twist the cages. Get the band to travel back in time. Come then, toss your key to the outlier, carry around a can of fortune sold.
