Fuck It (Breathing Time) 04:48
lyrics
buy track
Do you see it come around the bend? Do you know those cycles never end? Biding your time yes your buying you time, Seconds flow like pounds right out your pocket. Haunted by youth yet inspired by truth, A baby won the Nobel last week, so fuck it. Cause we are breathing time, And I won't be leaving. Cause we are breathing time, And I won't be leaving. Cause we are breathing time, And I won't be leaving. Cause we are breathing time, And I won't be leaving this time.

Gold Hand 06:45
lyrics

I've held illusions in my eyes, Shimmering to crack their demise. I've laid a horcrux on my breast, Softly vocalising it's theft. It strokes my crown, it cuts me laissez-faire. It makes me out, it shapes my shade so fair. Tell me, how do you think it feels, to be driven away from your own steering wheel? From your own steering wheel. And I am calling, Through time to the breaches. To the breaches. Through time. Am calling. And I. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms to the breaches. I stand in my own way. I'll let myself through when I'm done with the day. A Gold Hand prompts me from behind, But I'd never make it if the whole body was mine. If the whole body was mine. And I am falling, Through time on soft beaches. Beaches soft on. Time through. Falling am. I and. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms. I am cradled in my arms on soft beaches.

Up In Here 04:54
lyrics
buy track
Once in a cold orange slumber, Of a braze violet night, I described all my colours, To explain my minds sight. And I will tumble up in there, I will tumble up in here, I will stumble up in there, I will stumble up in here, I will fumble up in there, I will fumble up in here, I will crumble up in there, I will crumble up in here. See it your own way. A spigot crunch through, To a subconscious lair, Snap the frozen coral, To see what dwells in there, And I will tumble up in there, I will tumble up in here, I will stumble up in there, I will stumble up in here, I will fumble up in there, I will fumble up in here, I will crumble up in there, I will crumble up in here. See it your own way. (Up in here, Up in here, Up in here, Up in here) Up in here, see it your own way. (Up in here, Up in here, Up in here, Up in here) Up in here, see it your own way.

Green Me 07:14
lyrics
buy track
I look out at the green, The protrusions crushed beneath my blue jeans. I begin to count the thread count, And I realise that I am now counting the ground. The blue becomes a green, Green Me. The blue becomes a green, Green Me. As I become objectified, I think of all the subjective eyes, How they're all a part of this slow wave, This ever-encroaching unstoppable gross phase, When dead they will see, Green Me. When dead they will see Green Me. How can we be artificial, When we were freed from her call? Technology is natural, Like a tree that branches tall. Like a tree that branches tall. We are not artificial. We are not artificial. So as I start to fall, I see all the people in me crawl. They crawl into me a thousand fold, Millions, billions into my serene hold. They all become free, Green Me. They all become free, Green Me. And then the buildings start to sink, As spontaneous as sense into think. The church, the mosque the banks all unified, No billboard will escape the Green Tide. All one dream, Green Me. Life is but a dream, Green Me. How can we be artificial, When we were freed from her call? Technology is natural, Like a tree that branches tall. Like a tree that branches tall. We are not artificial. We are not artificial. All one dream, Green Me. Life is but a dream, Green Me. Life is but a dream, Green Me.

So Alone 03:35
lyrics

I'm alone, so alone. So damn alone, so alone. Nobodies helping me, get out of this misery. Ain't no light at the end I see, no redeeming philosophy. So alone, I'm so alone, so alone. Nobodies helping me, get out of this misery. No light at the end I see, no redeeming philosophy. But a light shines through the cracks inside my soul, I will light my own way before I get old.

Hope for Bickle 04:36
lyrics
buy track
So who weeps downstairs, For the man in his oak snares? Seeds sown centuries ago, The patient wake of his ego. Leave your dingy flat for home stately. I know you're trying to hate me, I know you can't berate me, You've been a soldier lately, You've been a soldier lately. You reach your arm into the mist, You flesh attacked by loneliness. In times still you feel warmth on palm, It hits your brow it makes you calm. You welcome your savior will full heft. You pull yourself to your breast, You help yourself in your best, You hold yourself to your breath, You hold yourself with your breath.

The Children Are Going Insane 08:28
lyrics
buy track
How many clouds will we ride, To find the Jesus in the sky, Filled to the brim with mono-nitrogen oxides. How many demons do we know, In skyscrapers way down low. They took us when we were mud, Injected us with glucose and steroids. They took our blooded love, Plastered on the walls; glittered as advised by Sigmund Freud. Now we don't know who we are; Depressed people prescribed a car, Make sure its a Mercedes. Lost and flying through the night, Trying to salve that soulish bite, Next door neighbors with Hades. And then the Green People came, Reminded us that we were sane. Spores and seeds came flying out, Floods and subsequent droughts, Looking for new balance. The demons needed a solution, So they built past their evolution, Hidden in towers of valance. But then the sheets were ripped free, Exposed for all of us to see, In shock and awe. The demons were like us, Corrupted mud oozing pus, And we knew what we were fighting for. All of us here right now, Stand so lavish and so proud, Trying to speak our voice aloud. And our voice it echoes, Snowflakes in winter snow, And we don't know where to go. All of us, So lavish and so proud, Trying to speak our voice aloud. And our voice it echoes, Snowflakes, winter snow, But we don't know where to go. One of us here, One of us here, One of us here lit the flame. And as said, Time and time and time again, By Jimmy Morrison and the same, The children are going insane. One of us here, One of us here, One of us here is to blame. And as said time and time and time and time and time again, By Jimmy Morrison and the same, The children are going insane.

Dawn 05:54
lyrics

I wait for the day to begin, The sun creating rivers of light on the windowsill, My coffee cold at room temperature. I've come so far just to turn around once again, To find there is beauty and pain in every place. All I want is the dawn, And I don't care from which world it comes. A change simply must come through, cause them the rules, But how will we greet that foe? with woo or woe? Inviting people in for tea makes friends and vampires don't exist. I look down at the grounds at the bottom of mug, thinking 'that's quite enough', And I crack my back and open the door, cause I want I want to live and that's what the world's good for. All I want is the dawn, And I don't care from which world it comes. All I want is the dawn, And I don't care from which world it comes.

about

A Psychedelic Folk Rock album which uses unique song-writing, story-telling and production methods to lay out a narrative of becoming. In a world where we feel increasingly separate from the natural forces that made us, it's important to remember that we all come from... well... right here.

It rises high, stoops low and ambles between those two extremes in an attempt to remind us all that we are not alone in our confusion. We can still move forward even when we don't know from whence we came, and in what direction we tread.

Like a tree, we all bend and fold towards the light to form our own individual beauty.
