lyrics

Set up to self-destruct, set up to self-destruct
Nowhere to run, the mirage erupts, set up to self-destruct
Out of time, out of luck
It's getting bad but I ain't giving up
Trying to break free, get unstuck
It's hard when you're set up to self-destruct

Set up to self-destruct, set up to self-destruct
My good intentions turn to dust, set up to self-destruct
Out of time, out of luck
It's getting bad, but I ain't giving up
Trying to break free, get unstuck
It's hard when you're set up to self-destruct

Behave in strange ways
That seem so wrong
And don't belong to who I want to be
Look out! I'll freak out!
My background mind always finds
New delusions for old designs
Fools me once, twice, three times
Takes advantage cause it knows that I'm

Set up to self-destruct, set up to self-destruct
The world is too much, I'm not enough, set up to self-destruct
Been confused, been deceived
So turned around, no one left to believe
Looking for wisdom, for guidance
For a means to disrupt the familiar pull to self-destruct

It's getting bad, but I ain't giving up
Trying to break free, get unstuck
It's hard when you're set up to self-destruct

Sean Spada's piano-driven songs wander on idiosyncratic melodic journeys, weaving in and out of loungey grooves and off- kilter solos. His keyboard playing has appeared on recordings by Strange Majik, Aurelio Voltaire and Fiona Silver, among others. Two of Sean's songs appear in the VR experience “The Under Presents.” ... more
