greybarrel draws inspiration from a combination of classical & choral music and mainstream rock from the 60s to present. ... more The resultant aesthetic is melody-driven rock that gets heavy on the harmony, whether it's a playful pop song, slow-burner, or canon. greybarrel finds fulfillment and therapy in playing & singing and therefore seeks to write music that is accessible, genuine, and moving. less

Take two of these and call me in the morning
Whatever gets you by
Whatever leaves you high
Take two of these and call me in the morning
That should do the trick
To healthy from sick
Take two of these and call me in the morning
This will provide what you lack
Will take the weight off your back
Trust me, you need help
I am telling you the truth
I know what's best for you
After all, you came to me for a reason
You believe
Therefore I am - Track Name: Others & Idols
-
Years & years of research & development
Designed with utmost care & unique technologies
Don’t even try to bow to your white elephant
Or cover up in smoke screen & alibis
The inclination to look elsewhere
Your loyalty will be rewarded
This will surely cure what ails you, and will
Come through where all the others failed you
Any imitation is certain defamation
Do not try this at home
Do not try this at home - Track Name: Only as Directed
-
Take only as directed
Use only as intended
There is nothing in between
Cut-and-dry and open-ended
Set aside a certain time
You must be faithful down the line
You don’t even want to know
What happens if you don’t follow
Take only as directed
Use only as intended
A prescription is a prescription for a reason
You need have a healthy fear of the void - Track Name: Lost & Found
-
I love my mom and my dad
They treat me so nice
They took me to the doctor
And he opened up my eyes
Now the medicine keeps me in line
The medicine keeps me in line
The medicine keeps me in line
And I feel fine
Now I’m such a good boy
I do what I’m told
I tell you, when I grow up
You know, I'll be good and old
It wasn’t always like this
I was acting up and reaching out
I was lost and then got found
‘Cause I got help, alright
Now the medicine keeps me in line
The medicine keeps me in line
The medicine keeps me in line
And I feel fine
Why should I listen to myself
When he knows what is good for my health?
Why should I rely on myself
When he's so easy to depend on? - Track Name: Reignstay
-
Do away with all the men who try to take my name
It’s high time they ate the very dirt from whence they came
With you on my side
I know I’m right
Oh I’ve worked so hard for this
I’m not going down like this
Slash, stab, and stack the bodies and duly stake my claim
I kill with the clearest conscience ‘cause you help take the blame
With you on my side
I know I'm right
I'm right....
Oh I’ve worked so hard for this
I’m not going down
I’m not going down
I’m not going down like this
The reign is mine
Supreme, divine
The reign is mine
Supreme, divine
The reign is mine
Supreme, divine
The reign is mine
Supreme, divine
Oh I’ve worked so hard for this
I’m not going down
I’m not going down
I’m not going down like this
I won’t lose my crown like this - Track Name: Cheater

I can’t believe she'd do this
I cannot understand
I feel so wronged and worthless
By a sight-unseen man - Track Name: Ours to Keep
-
We've gotten our marching orders
Guess who said it's so
He has paved the way for us
You have got to go
This land is our land
Read it and weep
This land is our land
Ours to keep
We outnumber you, yes we win
By popular demand
Step aside, it's not our fault that
You've been dealt this hand
This land is our land
Read it and weep
This land is our land
Ours to keep - Track Name: The Good Book(s)
-
I believe in the good books, yes
You heard me right, that's books with an "S"
Now you might think it's a moral mess
but it's real convenient, I confess
I'm not here to plagiarize
Or to pull the wool over your eyes
I'm just one of those simple type guys
With my mind on God and dollar signs
I'm sittin' here grinnin' like a cheshire cat
With my heart gettin' heavy and my wallet fat
Would I lie to you? Don't answer that
And let's keep on pretending that the world is flat
I believe in the good books, yes
You heard me right, that's books with an "S"
Now you might think it's a moral mess
but it's real convenient, I confess - Track Name: Desiderate
-
I have denied myself for so long
Militant in my diligence
I’ve self-disciplined myself right out of feeling anything
Now I feel
Oh man, how I do feel
In this life of servitude
His word I shall fulfill
He gives me all the answers
Yet I am empty still
Fountain of youth
In front of my eyes
I’m in an altered state
I’m in an altered state
I want you oh so bad
It sings like an angel’s song
This longing aches so bad and feels so good
And I’m starting not to care about what could go wrong
I know better than to do this
My parents taught me well
If I can’t get behind this service
How am I supposed to sell it
I feel as though I might go tell it now
Shout it out loud
I want you oh so bad
Like a horrible eighties song
This longing aches so bad and feels so good
And I’m starting not to care about what could go wrong
What's the worst that could happen?
I want you oh so bad
It sings like an angel’s song
This longing aches so bad and feels so good
And I’m starting not to care about what could go wrong - Track Name: I Am, Once Again
-
So take two of these and call me in the morning
Forget about the side effects
What even the fine print neglects
Trust me, you need help
I am telling you the truth
I know what is best for you
After all, you came to me for a reason
You believe
Therefore I am
And thus I sing
Hallelujah
