"...and as the sky opened and turned into itself what was left was an unprecedented sight of growth, death and the invigorating scene of the great mother's children. The roots and sprouts of the saplings stretched their arms out to the yellow fire; glowing and shining down as the elders admired them from afar. But it wasn't enough for the little creek with the magnifying glass endlessly searching for the non-existent path that leads away from the estuary and white tears of winter. Now the only option left is to give in as he melts into the hydrogen and salt watching the vital concoction of his dreams and imagination slowly decay but not before the remnants of his entrails hydrate the young and old of the mother's home...and once again the forest breathes...eternally."

Snow on the Ocean
03:24
|
|||
|
the flakes will fall
softly and slowly
down on rolling waves
turning and churning
the grey of winter
beautiful and plentiful
is a scene so clean
in a summer daydream

Rainbird
04:47
|
|||
|
the tears of clouds fell
on the rainbird as he flew
in an ocean of grey
with H20 on the wings
Fragile Pieces Shattered
ragged and broken but saved
by the warm glow of his horizon
that's beyond the storm
he's carried in her loving arms
Fragile Pieces Shattered
But They Are All Gathered

Angel in the Sand
03:23
|
|||
|
we take steps to nowhere
as the waves sing thier song
The Minutes Become Hours
upon long beach, she lies down
beckoning me over to come closer
The Minutes Become Hours
With The Angel In The Sand

Tears in the Rain
03:38
|
|||
|
the day is done for today
and the night starts to cry
his sad demeanour
saturates the atmosphere
the night is done for tonight
the day is all alone
and as she cries
the grey starts to fly

The Wind and The Rain
03:04
|

|
Four hundred beats a minute
Sorrow swallows the film
This the affliction
And the infection

She shows her soul
To eleven million eyes
While her pink shoes
Carry her to cloud 9

Cloud 9

She says three syllables
And the eyes are glued to the act

For The Broken
03:42
|
|||
|
Looking for the X that marks the spot
While footsteps walk to where they don't want to be
Coals burning white in blue flames
Cry and cry and cry and cry and cry and cry

I wanted to call
several times
but than i went back
to the bus stop
against my will
memories came
a freezing chill
an end to a game
pink moon comfort me
upon the stairs
and as i climb aboard
when the rain comes down
Look Out The Window
She's With Another
heal from the fall
as sour as a lime
i wanted to call
several times

a vicious cycle
we will now unravel
a beating fist
is broken again
open and examine
these ancient scars
open and examine
again.
there are no stories to tell
in regards to two as one
but a history does exist
of prolonged loneliness
again there's been yearning
and searching for her sweet voice
this voice will make you melt
making stomachs scared in her presence
You've Been Chasing A Rainbow

Dayterror / Celexa

|
|||
|
oh, little boy in a state of limerence
salt water fell upon the wet grass
Yea, Yea, Yea
seven days with foreign band-aids
celexa broke the hidden glass
isn't it nice to now know?
No, No, No

For The Lonely
02:36
|
|||
|
Do you ever feel as if you are all alone?
Doesn't it feel so real?
and if you try to throw out carefully thought out words
are they lost in the air?
See her walking down a high horizon street
Could she know your pain?
The love of every dream girl in sight
Won't be home alone, tonight.

Someday, you will be found
and he will be there for you
there's no one he'd love more
forgetting what was before
Tell him your troubles
Show him your shadows
With no hesistation
and his will be known

An interesting, Lo-Fi album chock full of melancholy but with unbelievably catchy pop-hooks

Probably the most definitive sound of the pacfic northwest ever put to tape and to audio for that matter. Everything Mount Eerie and The Microphones is pure genius.
