about

Recorded as Daylight Savings Time expired Halloween night 2009, late night in a funeral home. What you can't hear is the dance party happening in the woods next door.

lyrics

First things first: find your own way out. No one can sell you a shade of darkness without a shadow of doubt. It makes you human - love and death and grief - like how it takes some of the disease to make the vaccine. Either way the bird flies up with the sunset on it’s wings. The fingerprints of memory, possessions left behind. It’s as if they’re in the very next room in the back of your mind you know it’s trouble but it’s all you have left. The only thing keeping you apart is one heartbeat and one breath. Either way the sky is filled with several forms of wing, corresponding high and low, overwhelming gravity. Energy is not lost, energy is not made, I don’t have answers.
