4.	Ground Control to Brian Slugs 01:50	lyrics	buy track
Adrift for days Adrift for years I miss the nightmares I miss the nightmares The stress just keeps me up at night The stress just keeps me up at night How I’d love to feel my death 100 times over But I just stare at my roof in a senseless panic Let me fall Let me fall Let me fall into bed sheets, not spreadsheets Every day I’m drifting further from this world Every day I’m drifting further from this world Ground Control to Brian Slugs Ground Control to Brian Slugs Can you hear me Brian Slugs? Do you fear me Brian Slugs? Can you hear me Brian Slugs? Do you fear me Brian Slugs?
5.	The Noise 01:38	lyrics	buy track
I can’t remember the voice I can’t remember the noise Once a radiant melody Lost I can’t remember the smell I lost it somewhere in hell The one I was dragged through Lost I can’t remember the name On which I placed all blame Lost Lost Lost

It will never feel that good again It will never feel real again You’ll search forever But it’s gone Lost forever Gone forever
7.	Close Encounters of a Blurred Kind (ft. Terry Potter) 01:01	lyrics	buy track
The radar brings a warning An object soon in sight From the port side I can see it Approaching near the speed of light This construction of black steel I’m clearly in its path It shows no signs of slowing Could this moment be my last? The close that it draws The more that I feel sick I barely hold together Fix my mind, I can not think I stagger to the console Engaging the warp drive A desperate final act All I can do to survive The ship it kicks and shutters As conscious starts to stop My final view from out the window Is some sort of… Flying Saucer
8.	Spacewalk (ft. Jet Black) 06:23		buy track
9.	The Burning Sensation 01:09	lyrics	buy track
A vivid dream Of skies on fire The people scream A global pyre The vision so real I feel the heat Open my eyes Climb to my feet Avise la fin So it’s begun Too late to change the course Aimed for the sun I always wanted to die at sunrise
10.	Solar Sultan 04:38	lyrics	buy track
Here we are Reborn in a star I’m the Sultan of the Universe I know you You’re all here for the same reason You’re all me I am you I am your pain I am your anxiety I am your doubt I am your loneliness I am your greatest fears I am your answer I am your answer My fall shall be the fall of all I am the Solar Sultan I am the Lord of Light I am the celestial destruction at the end of time I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul I am the black hole soul
11.	Mother, I'm Here (Darren Korb cover) 02:16	lyrics	buy track
I set my sail Fly the wind, it will take me Back to my home, sweet home Lie on my back Clouds are making way for me I'm coming home, sweet home I see your star You left it burning for me Mother, I'm here Eyes open wide Feel your heart and it's glowing I'm welcome home, sweet home I take your hand Now you'll never be lonely Not when I'm home, sweet home I see your star You left it burning for me Mother, I'm here

about

Originally slated for an early 2017 release, Lxst In Space was hit with delay after delay, and that's before I even bought my delay pedal.

I am not the man I was when I began writing the album, and the album has changed with me. At release, it is a snapshot of who I am, and it time it will be nothing more than a glimpse of what I used to be.

This is the first album I put time into writing, recording and mixing. It was hard to do so and keep the improv feel of Scary Beetles alive. Releasing this terrifies me because I can no longer play this project off as a joke if people hate it. Their criticisms are now valid, and any flaws are now due to my failings rather than my lack of care.

Please be gentle. Please don't listen to the voices. Please stop thinking about the moon so much.

- Brian Slugs
