Seasons 03:28
lyrics
buy track
I, I have tried so hard hard to calm the waves waves inside my head but I, somehow got this far tell me where I am am I already dead? Its, hard to write the words just for their own sake when there's nothing to be said but life, life will find a way to make up things to say we're just DNA Summer its all happy fall's a changing thing winter can be cold but then it melts right into spring This sound was inside of us since before we were born we're all naked creatures simply trying to stay warm

More of the Same (A Coward's Refrain) 03:13
lyrics
buy track
I'll take more of the same Hook me up to the tank I volunteer to take part if there's still room in the control group Don't you challenge me I am a static thing, you see I will remain the same and never change in spite of changes in the world around me

Everything 03:38
lyrics
buy track
Someone wrote it out in big loopy lines down where Grand passes over Division I can speculate how folk from out of state might feel about Stumptown's "profound sense of meta" Everything is Everything Everything is Everything Everything is everything I'm pretty sure that I'd mostly agree Everything is everything but are we including the things we don't see? Everything is Everything Everything is Everything but its also nothing at all And now can't you see? All the zeros and ones that you will eventually be? You'll never be free until time breaks your bonds like a universal solvent If you line up all the ones in this world can't you see the cosmic zero?

Let it Fly 03:56
lyrics
buy track
All prepositions apply to the distance between the world and my mind and its one crazy place where we live every day I'm just passing through but its here that I'll stay Heaven's a place you can find its between your ears behind your eyes but its scatters and fades when its given demands if you just let it fly it returns to your hands

Lost to Stay 03:02
lyrics
buy track
I'm not bewildered by existence Fearful for what's in the distance Sitting here as hours pass singing to a single cast I dreamt of you felt you whimper in the dark senses burnt torn apart Now I dream another day had forever Lost to Stay Within my heart that stores it all within my mind that's left to crawl through shadows, thick and thin veiled warm, soft as skin

29 to Find 02:07
lyrics
buy track
Look for contradictions and you may find that's what you're inside took 20 years to lose my mind and 29 to find You helped me believe that love could pierce through a thousand frustrations you helped to show me how I don't have to be something that's impossible I'm getting out of my own way getting out of my own way you gotta get in to get out gotta get in to get out I could stop hating everything I like that scares me I could stop fearing that which wraps me up ensnares me I could keep loving you better I could keep loving you better

Stoned Ape/Dragons of Eden 03:28
lyrics
buy track
The Australopithecus there in the bathroom mirror and the Pachycephalosaur, bone-headed reptile is near The thigmotropic double-helix dodges anthropocentric terracide the ribonucleic acid dancin' to the dimethyltryptamine tryptamine, typtamine The humble Homo Habilis is grazin' picking up a sudden vibe... Eve says that its time to leave the garden Adam tried the Psilocybe This vestigial reptile is still a necessity part of this good modern Hominid recipe Hominid recipe A dash of spontaneous neuroplasticity simmer the ongoing consciousness mystery consciousness mystery

Waxing to Wane 04:06
lyrics
buy track
We stay up at night conversing with our secret gods we say its alright up against the rougher odds cos' we're not alone never will be and this is our home here we are free Earth so it may seem is our collective dream we'll all be surprised if life will reveal part of it may have actually been real Time and all of your ways sometimes a line often a maze Truth, rarely intact matter of fact seems it never stays Love, things will attract and quickly repel just waning to wax Life, things will reply and quickly attract just waxing to wane

Truth is Cliche 03:36
lyrics
buy track
Let the big be the big and cast shadows on the small will I always fear to press the bright green button on the wall Let the blind lead the blind till the followers can see that their minds were falsely bound and their hands are truly free The sun shines on down brings meaning to the skin you feel it shining through and you feel it sinking in stars come out at night and give meaning to the day can I ever stop the feeling like the truth is just cliche?
