Headwinds 02:58
lyrics

Trying to scale the peak trying to see all things from a point Headwinds have brought me down from landless places buffeted up exotic elements that only exist in landless places Trying to scale the peak trying to see all things from a point headwinds have brought me down Subspace embraces of argon and ozone and asteroid dust and what would you sings in reply and where would you zoom in from the sky Trying to scale the peak trying to see all things from a point headwinds brought me down Never would you subscribe to such heights in body alone but only in reverie and only in mind Trying to scale the peak trying to see all things from a point headwinds brought me down I fought these mosses these treacherous trails and empty cliff faces scaled to the same peak as you and all you’ll find is solitude and all you’ll find is solitude you will not find separation you will no feel loneliness up there just empty stone just empty stone that’s for the throne that none may figure in but all may partake in Trying to scale the peak That all may partake in trying to see all things from a point in the seat over fields in the cinnamon fields and marjoram meads Headwinds have brought me down Trying to scale the peak trying to see all things from a point headwinds brought you down headwinds have brought me down headwinds have brought me down headwinds have brought me down

Inside Your Mind 03:23
lyrics
buy track
There's a war going on and it's fought inside they're fighting over your hearts and minds and since the big prize is already on the enemy's side tools used are trivial pursuits filled with symbology systematically, so sports and entertainment mental floss me. There's a war going on and it's fought inside they'll sit on lizard brains and get them trained, music and gatherings to throb to a beat and to share a brain to emulate from the ancient ceremonies to the ancient temples of the ancient beast and it's all for money. There's a new side to the war contained that never emerged and pulls underneath there hoarded in senses undiscovered, powers unknown frightfully unfocused but rightfully ours to keep or to pledge to some other powers just to hand it over like the hounds did. Stones to beat the tavistock out of a generation and there's a power inside that's higher than yours the only way to lose it is to willingly give it away, to invite your masters in to roost in your most sacred chambers and to hand the keys over for a bucket of beads. This was made for you the only way that you could screw everything up, when all you had to do was stay true to yourself and let the life flow you only had one job one soul to keep there's a war going on and it's fought inside your mind it's fought all the time.

lyrics

Life in movies so wonderful and amusing give us something to believe in give us someone to believe them. Life on film it could be such a good thing but I see you're losing interest in the frames that consume me You look much better in real life you look so good under this light tell me what I should be doing tell me how to live my life Life in movies so wonderful and amusing give us something to believe in give us someone to believe in You look much better in real life you look so good under the sun tell me what I should be doing tell me how to live my love life in pictures what more could you ask for your youth is captured your life is depicted stand up and be counted see that you are surrounded by people who adore you they can't wait to destroy you they can't wait to destroy you!

Altar 00:59
lyrics

you interrupted me in my reverie so that you could come out and eat blood sacrifices and watermelon slices it must have been time to feed to break the electric and to eat however long since this starvation making your space with defecation too bad you never defecate your own brain. To eat and shit and to consume it's all that you do it's all over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again

Lacey 01:37
lyrics
buy track
Lacey you just thought I was done you just thought I just thought I had died or went crazy, oh Lacey when all I did was thoroughly go away-zy. You called me lazy when nobody'd come out seeking to find me, Lacey, but lazy? That took a lot of work just to keep my mouth shut, Lacey. Lacey, when every sinew hold together inside me is screaming crazy out like bones in the graveyard for self-serving penitence, Lacey, you bruised my ego it's not your fault that I blame thee. I'm lazy I could look in a mirror but all I could think of is Lacey.

My Restless Heart 02:08
lyrics
buy track
This is how I walk and this is who I am and this is what I'm on and this is me I limp a little bit but I'm still elegant I'm on a unicorn I got a little horn I'm trying to find my importance I fly to devil land accursed impotence beneath the foot of damnation I stand drink my cup of tea that won't do for my redemption that won't woke my head on mice but sip-iffic syndrome is introspection. Always looking within and feeling thin in menagerie broken soliloquy but this is me how could this not be anything else but me? but my mouth I tried my best to keep it shut. But truth to power that's my gig that is who I am and it's not your cup of tea but my restless heart belongs at the sea.

Belligerent ghouls run Manchester schools spineless swine cementing minds salutes the troops jealous of you same old suit since 1962 he doesn't know what to two step down the nape of my neck I want to go home I don't want to stay give up education is a bad mistake. midweek on the playing field suplex you on the knees knees you in the groin elbow in the face bruises bigger than dinner plates I want to go home I don't want to stay.

East Is East 01:08
lyrics

Stop fooling around you're getting lost in the game you're in the midst of a change stuck in the prison that you made. East is East and West is West and I'm trapped somewhere in between East is East and West is West and I'm trapped somewhere in between.

Endless Summertime 02:54
lyrics
buy track
I'm all alone without my dream and even ended I sing I mean something I can't put my finger on a bird a sting a shock of something for thoughts I haven't let go of yet strummed and open-ended or drenched in pre-chorus fuzz sometimes through chorus never comes words suggest a direction and a tug. How'd I stay away? Thought forms I just can't articulate fairness in the cries I whimper up into the great beyond above nothing spent responding could ever speak for something on my finger the breeze that doesn't belong to purpose and presence in the song sometimes blown up to buzz the bend the bent the blend the blast the bust the armless torso becoming the beckoning that I cannot reply to and there's no reply forthcoming nothing on the offing nothing on the offering the scoffing scuff I blended shouldn't have let us touch but in the evening we smooth alone from our blessings we say something something clean I'm all alone without my dream. In my dream I wonder where do the migrating birds wheel back? Who goes first? Is it hunger is it thirst? What's the drive and why does it roam? Does it see North or South as home? Does it like the South the worst? The biting bugs and horrifying attack of crocodiled eyes fangs and diseases of mosquitoes defeats'es? Or work? Does it hate up north where Mercurial material lawns Thrones filled with woods and garden gnomes benign contempt of ice to come find work? Where do the migrating birds go? Do they wheel back and who goes first? I'm in the mood for endless summertime.

Huron Pine 02:12
lyrics
buy track
This Huron Pine this is a sacred place the branches split from roots within in five different ways it splays and gets displaced where it would grow in no other place but in this sacred space that it creates the fork in this here trunk the right-now mind that waylays it reminds the roots it tastes in fits how it relates to previous interactive states. It creates that bent up river the pay-no-mind that wrestles with it the monkey mind at different agitations just goes off away to station and returns when the grip it loosens on the thoughts that make the space for this here state that it creates from inside of its mind of this here Huron pine this is a sacred space that it creates this Huron pine This is a sacred space that it creates within five different ways it splays and it's displaced and so unchanging in the morning air that's swift in spirit but it's slow to swirl in circulation Huron pine this sacred place.

The Demon Of I Can Do Better 03:35
lyrics
buy track
Well that was unexpected a bat of ill-intention a fluttering club from something that I thought was all done a kneecap from the past a buzzing of wasps when you broke the nest well this was just progress a progression that emerged out of nothing, of the ashes of those who trod before, Sedated Sundays, wordless degrees, this used to be who I was I would put my foot in my own face becoming who I smeltered under sharp unleavened Queen's treat gaze cold soulless slack-jawed eyes, we wanted something else something that was other something that was ours something on our amplitude and so we ploughed the fields tilled our own earth, pioneers on college, face of untouched spirit of the other independent interactions sparked by sparks that sparked sparks drew the gaze of dragon ambition the demon of I can do better and we invited the demons in welcomed them onboard, built them a board and they promised to steer us to shoalless seas, the biggest leagues, to be Somebodies. I wanted the Nobodies to be somebody but didn't want a bit of it for me.
