lyrics

I can’t stand me now
Created me to be
It’s not who you are
I feel so wrong coming face to face
To lie, to lie, to lie
Actions that we take
Actions that we make
Govern who we are
To see inside
Darken everything
To hide, to hide, to hide
Go on, look at you
You mess
Look on, confess
Don’t you recognize the face?
Recognize the face
Recognize the change?
Recognize the change
Mirrored images of the man I see
Who I used to be
I used to care
The damage has been done
You can’t take it back
Counterfeit faker
I am court jester in the kingdom of apathy
Stop while you’re ahead
Before you end up dead
It’s not who you are…it’s not who you are
It’s not who you are…it’s not who you are

The Enigmatic Foe Knoxville, Tennessee

With sharp lyrics, the playful pop bite of the best of the 70s and 80s, and the kind of self-deprecation usually reserved for a Woody Allen movie, Jared Colinger's lyrics run the gamut from the joy of new love to disillusionment with the old, from wanting to like yourself to being afraid of what we have in our minds.

The new music coming in 2023. ... more

I’m still waiting for my physical CD copy. I ordered back on March 2, 2023 and it said it would be here before March 18 but still waiting. Sent out two emails just wondering if it was sent and haven’t heard anything back. Next I will open a dispute with PayPal or BandCamp Ned
