Don't Wait Up Just Leave The Light On

by SuperNova Beast

Jay Sharp the debut release of “SuperNova Beast” by Martin Luque (previously of the Dissenters and Losing You To Tattoos) brings forth the ever-controversial marriage of rock and electronic music.

The Queens native spent the last couple of years modding out Gameboys and indulging in the chiptune scene found here on Lower East Side and Bushwick in NYC and found the artist sharply changing his direction. A couple of his original songs have been reworked in a startlingly updated fashion to much success. Favorite track: I Quit My Part Time Job.

Drive Up 03:09
We'll do it no other way Drive up north each day I don't believe you're part Of a cult No where else is as cold High standards uphold Quite the rush but I'm not afraid Always on the move It's written on the pavement There I go I try to exit through the darkness You have some to offer But you won't tell me I won't ask again If you play these games Is it strange to say You came from a higher plane Ride around again Until we get it right this time Over and over You lean on my shoulder But I don't believe we've met before Somehow I'm flying Maybe just dying I'm ready to do it again Always on the move It's written on the pavement There I go I try to exit through the darkness You have some to offer But you won't tell me I won't ask again If you play these games Is it strange to say You came from a higher plane Ride around again Until we get it right this time We'll do it no other way Drive up north each day I don't believe we've met before

We grew up with this kid who seemed to be out of place A little shy boy who didn't know where to play Living off Hillside Ave where drivers crashed and burned And he always came to school late afraid but not hurt You know the kids that come from his side Don't survive You're lucky all they take is your pride So don't cry And looking back it didn't make sense why he did it From his point of view he'd say its lose and lose Don't you get it? The bigger kids wait in the school yard and in the streets But the real bully he's afraid of Lived at his home Hey can I trust you? I'm finally gonna make it on my own Just need some tough love There's no harm done Hey can I trust you? I'm finally gonna make it on my own Just need some tough love There's no harm done So bring it home And the chilling part is he left it for something worse A long way to the finish line this could hurt Well the rapid life of chaos rocks the Heart How do I filter out the blues and the scars And looking back it didn't make sense why he did it From his point of view he'd say its lose and lose Don't you get it? The bigger kids wait in the school yard and in the streets But the real bully he's afraid of Lived at his home Hey can I trust you? I'm finally gonna make it on my own Just need some tough love There's no harm done Hey can I trust you? I'm finally gonna make it on my own Just need some tough love I won't fuck up Bring it home Hey can I trust you? I'm finally gonna make it on my own Just need some tough love There's no harm done Bring it home Just bring it home Bring it home That's when the life of rock'n'roll Will take my soul That's when the life of rock'n'roll Will take my life and drive it home Bring it home

When I'm in love It feels like I'm on drugs When the high kicks in I don't think about anything else Now when the love ends I can't sleep I'm sweating Unless I'm standing up and feeling weak I can't keep my Eyes open And I can't even look at my food So lets dig out that guitar and make some room Lets not even write a song Just take a picture Don't waste your time if no one will listen You know there were some good days Truth be told it never got old Every time I passed you by I'd steal a kiss cos I couldn't wait Until the end of the day And for a time it was good Except I needed some more sunlight in my life Cos It helps with my depression But all along the ozone layer's been thinning Leaving me exposed to more radiation Why does it get worse before it gets better? Will it get better? Get me out of this tank alive Kill the city lights and see the truth There's so much that we can do When I'm with you I'm with you There's no limit to what you want But that's not how I wanna start love feeling high but not wasted When I'm with you Thank the goodness of the world and my family For convincing me that I'm not the only dreamer on the road That keeps struggling With the demons of the past Moving on with higher hopes at last As the sun rises I realize This isn't the end Just the next phase to reach new heights The spirit needs elevation to stay alive don't compromise Always try to beat your personal record But right now I feel satisfied I'm not a hypocritical pompous bastard I'm only human and learning from my errors Made mistakes and now changing for the better But you know drugs and alcohol still close by Hey man how about another? Losing my cool and regretting my hangover I'll stay nice if you stick around the party doesn't need to be over It just needs a kickstart to the storyline I know the line was crossed But you're happy without me? Queue the audience applause Get me out of this tank alive Kill the city lights and see the truth There's so much that we can do When I'm with you I'm with you There's no limit to what you want But that's not how I wanna start love Feeling high but not wasted When I'm with you

Redefined 03:22
For the last time Lets stop and talk about this With the baggage we have inside And the sad fate that couldn't get by So alone What harm would it do to unwrap this gift I couldn't tell you more And that made you feel insecure For so long I'm a fool to think I'd save the day Cos I'll always hear a voice in my heart sing I'm redefined Without wasting I lost confusion I'm redefined Will somebody please just wake me off this I'm redefined My vision is clear just lost my way back I'm redefined Will somebody please just wake Just wake me up Lets see how our dreams will fly Through this night I can't describe Baby please don't look at me with those eyes it makes me nervous Baby please tell me you'll hold my hand cos it'll help me focus So so much for the weekend getaway You never see it coming til it's already arrived Oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why? I'm a fool to think I'll save the day Cos I'll always hear a voice in my heart sing I'm redefined Without wasting I lost confusion I'm redefined Will somebody please just wake me off this I'm redefined My vision is clear just lost my way back I'm redefined Will somebody please just wake Just wake me up Just wake me up Just wake me up Just wake me up Just wake me up
