From the recording Ondoezik.1 : Lifeboat
Pretty much just building up one groove and then driving it into the ground - with a bunch of unusual sound colors and words to keep things interesting long after I'm gone.
Lyrics
No tears right now. Turn off the spigot in your head.
Blow me up. This life that I lead.
Watch the pieces fly. Above everybody’s head.
You think that I was heavy. Maybe you were Miss Lead.
My heart will still pulse. It’s in the sound of all these notes.
Open the creaking door. And sweep out all my ghosts.
Or let them rise through the skylight. To pay the ransom that I owe.
I was feeling weighed down. But by nothing save gold.
My brothers and my sisters. The trap door is sprung.
Explode my weary soul. This human race is now run.
The pieces flew apart. And in the tall trees they hung.
Look out below. There’s a splinter in the sun.
I dragged myself up. Propped against your shoulder.
To see you again. Well it got harder as I got older.
Just about a 100 miles. And slightly across the border.
The light in your yard. Illuminates me drawn and quartered.
Well I pulled myself up. Shored against your shoulder.
To see you again. Well it got easier as I got older.
Just about a 1000 miles. And way out past the border.
The light in your eyes. Well it brightened my search for order.
