Track Name: Photograph
A bedroom rapped in fleece
Blue bubbles
No cars in the garage
Their out dining
My batteries are drained
Blue blankets
Your laying on the floor
There's no sound

Lets not take any photographs
Freeze the sky and the zodiacs
Lets not take any photographs
Muffle the sky and the zodiacs

Let the elements react
Take off our masks and take a nap, take a nap....

Lets not take any photographs
Freeze the sky and the zodiacs
Riff off our masks and take a nap, take a nap, take a nap.
Track Name: Shadow's Path
The room is getting darker,
the angle of the sun dissolves.
Languid in the house;
Empty without you

The plants will hold the space,
no mountains to hold on to.
The fridge will tell its jokes,
Half of them will rhyme

The room is getting brighter
the angle of the sun, resolves
Liquid in the house
terribly...
horribly...
eventually... renewed.
Track Name: A Sword and a Shield
Four-thousand words like a drink of sand
You and the voyage and voice in the back of my head
Dreams without words without warmth
We dance around the illusionist’s cane

Clime the latter and look all the way down
The details expand and create a new photo
The fields of clutter without hope
might simply turn into shades

Rejoice in the past; living myth in the future.
Admit the end as creation.

Inhale the smoke and massage it into my lungs
Undo all of the features
Format the disposable drives
And crawl back into time

The reasons for my lack of clarity
Singular I but not eyes
I dressed for the union of arms
But its coat contains a sword and a shield

Rejoice in the past; living myth in the future.
Admit the end as creation.
Rejoice in the past; living myth in the future.
Admit the end as the completion of creation.

Four-thousand words like a drink of sand
You and the voyage and voice in the back of my head
Dreams without words without warmth
We dance around the illusionist’s cane

Clime the latter and look all the way down
The details expand and create a new picture
The fields of clutter without hope
might simply turn into shades
Track Name: Orange Achilles
To heal the Viking song
The clash of rolling upon, each others lines
The years that hold the rope

Sing Around Us
Dangle us by our feet
Fall between them
Orange Achilles

Yellow Minnows
Purple Eyes
Beyond Speech
Orange Achilles
