A single taken off of the upcoming album Seeds, coming this Winter.

lyrics

See my silhouette on a sunset
reminds me of when I
used to be buried beneath
very deep in the subtext of consciousness

Some find escape by making pillows wet
with substances salty as oceans
dripping slowly on the living world

And within each new emission
sit these pearls of wisdom

Every fleeting hurt - another lesson in rejection
through which we flood the feelings out
and start again on the next one
but with a beat new hearts begin

We flood you out of this system
We want you out of this town
This drought's been so long and then some
High time we tear it all down

(so what?)
If the waves carry me away
(so what?)
If I'm washing out all the stains
(so what?)
All we're bringing 'bout is a change
(so what?)
All we're bringing down is decayed

We're always left with toxic gardens
and blamed for the fruit that we produce -
never turn to those who stain the roots

How could you hope to change without
looking at the makers of the situation -
snaking tails you've been feeding fluid

All the mouth wants
is to bite the line that blocks
as the buffer creeps beyond us

It's easier to see the wall that closes us
always one step ahead
We forget this freedom of movement
in the stream
what a sober view
as we suffer, scream
and try to muster prudence
while aware of all the speed at our disposal
ooh How do you resist it?
How do you relinquish this momentum
to sit in infinite flow
in which every intimate's known?
