When I saw you on the stairs you took me by surprise. Such a precious smile, such a light in your eyes. Now I try to understand how all of this happened so fast In the blink of an eye it started I hope this love can last. Chorus: I don't know if I'm worthy of your love of all the women in this world. I don't know if I'm worthy of all your time, this scared little girl. Forgive me, baby, if I Find it hard to believe that I am worthy of your love. They say that things like this are a flash in the pan. They'll try to break us down but they'll never understand. The future's wide open it's a whole new world out there. Just touch my hand, take a leap of faith, that you and I can share. Chorus: I don't know if I'm worthy of your love of all the women in this world. I don't know if I'm worthy of all your time, this scared little girl. Forgive me, baby, if I Find it hard to believe that someone like you could want someone like me. I don't know if I'm worthy of your love but I'll try anyhow. I don't know if I'm worthy of your love if time will only allow. (I don't know if I'm worthy of your love)

Time is catching up with me. There's not enough to go around. I'm playing with my fate, however unknowingly it's my turn to close the gate. But if I falter, if I fall away from your grasp, all I ask is you hold me tight and never let me go. Chorus: I'm still that daughter of the moon yet I cling to my despair. Thinking that I've done all I could. Realize you're never there. When you came back and called my name, repeating loudly, the only thing I felt was your desperate need for an instant. You caressed my sunburn skin like only a lover should. Amidst all this mess, my life has turned into what it would. Chorus: I'm still that daughter of the moon yet I cling to my despair. Thinking that I've done all I could. Realize you're never there. I recognize the sights and sounds, although they're new to me. Cannot reach common ground. It was not meant to be... It was not meant to be... It was not meant to be... It was not meant to be... It was not meant to be...

I wanted to know you but you weren't there. I needed to talk to you but you couldn't care. Saw the truth, but justice is blind. You're not my kind, my kind. Chorus: I'm feeling worse than I know I should be. Your whipping child is what you think of me. You're distorting all the truth. You think you'll find some fountain of youth. It's just another time you tell a fragment of a lie Hanging out with a new friend. But without me, I have to wonder where it ends. You tell me I'm not worth a thing unless you say I am. So where does that leave me? Get out of my mind! Chorus: I'm feeling worse than I know I should be. Your whipping child is what you think of me. You're distorting all the truth. You think you'll find some fountain of youth. It's just another time you tell a fragment of a lie Bridge: I fall apart. You drop me over and over again. My mind shatters like glass from sand. You told me I was worthless, that no one else could love me but now I know, now I know where true love lay but only now that you're gone. Chorus: I'm feeling worse than I know I should be. Your whipping child is what you think of me. You're distorting all the truth. You think you'll find some fountain of youth. It's just another time... I'm feeling worse than I know I should be. Your whipping child is what you think of me. You're distorting all the truth. You think you'll find some fountain of youth. It's just another time you tell a fragment of a lie

It's been so long since I haven't felt alone. Lost my home. I must have lost my mind somewhere on the journey to find myself. Who is this woman that I am? I can't scream but I need help to find the real me. I've tried so hard to find the beauty within me. It's so impossible; too good to be true. If there's a god up above will he even try to hear me? If there's an angel let her show through. Took too long to find some others remotely like myself. It's unexpected the places that I find them. Can't run away from the pain from the lack of some sort of meaning. If I cling too much would you be able to forgive me? I've tried so hard to find the beauty within me. It's too impossible to be true. If there's a god up above will he even try to hear me? If there's an angel let her show through. There's a place for me in this world. I just know it. It's so hard to keep any sanity... any sanity in me. I can't change the world, I know. I'll try to be the best me that I can. Harm none and play nice, but be defensive but be open. It's all too much for my head. I've tried so hard to find the beauty within me. It's too impossible to be true. If there's a god up above will he even try to hear me? If there's an angel let her show through. There's a place for me in this world. I just know it. It's so hard to keep any sanity... any sanity in me.

Chorus: How can I make you feel (what I am feeling?) How do you know (what it feels like to be me?) Wish I was someone else. I feel alien and unworthy of this life. Don't want to be here. Don't want to be the butt of all those crass jokes again. Don't make me stay here. You can't make me stay with people that can't understand my paranoia. (spoken) I've tried to hard to just fit in to some niche that needs an answer. Your breath it reeks of liquid. Rancid words come out your mouth. Chorus: How can I make you feel (what I am feeling?) How do you know (what it feels like to be me?) Wish I was someone else. I feel alien and unworthy of this life. (spoken) Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray to you my soul to keep. If I should die before you wake, I pray to you my life to take--- Chorus: How can I make you feel (what I am feeling?) How do you know (what it feels like to be me?) Wish I was someone else. I feel alien and unworthy of this life. (spoken) Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray to you my soul to keep...

My.... Moments... When you go... Thoughts... You don't have to make a sound... (So how can I ever let you go?) If you walk... will you come back..? Hurt... Could you ever forget my name? I've tried to become more independent... ...the closer to you I go. Psycho's being dramatic... Try not to cry... I need so much guidance.... (So now where do I go from here?) Chorus: If you walk out of that door, will you come back to me the same? I've been hurt before and come back for more, but could you ever forget my name in a moment?
7.
Every... Everything that I know has changed... Where... Rules have all changed... Rules have all changed; it's all rearranged. (Where do I go from here now that you're gone?) I'm afraid I'll disappear, but life keeps moving along. (Where do I go from here?) Everything that I know has changed... Finding myself. Learn about me. I put one foot in front of the other. Can't bear to see the chaos in me. Afraid that it will smother me. One small thing for this electric dream. I try to resist but it does not miss me. Sell my soul for a map and a trowel just to find my way back home. (Where do I go from here?) Chorus: (Where do I go from here now that you're gone?) I'm afraid I'll disappear, but life keeps moving along. Every... Everything that I know has changed... Where... I'm afraid I'll disappear, but life keeps moving along. Where... Rules have all changed... Rules have all changed; it's all rearranged.

about

Remixes have fascinated me since I first heard a Bruce Springsteen remix back in 1984. Truth be told, I've created more bootleg remixes than I have original songs. I was approached by someone I knew through a Depeche Mode remix community for permission to remix "Worthy?" and it got me thinking that things could get interesting if I remixed the album. Plus, it's just a lot of fun to play around with music! ^_^

To remix my own stuff allows for a little more experimentation than on a proper artist album. There's a wide variety of styles of electronic music presented in these 8 tracks; everything from drum & bass ("If There's An Angel [Bungled in the Jungle]") to aggressive techno ("Moving Along [Sinister]") to me just letting the individual parts of the song speak for themselves ("Forget My Name [Dubby Edit]").

I completely re-worked the artwork, as I had a background that I wasn't sure had a copyright on it, as well as updating it for clarity.
