Lyrical Preview Part 3

"Skating with Girl"

Girl skating, oh
girl skating, oh
to conjure you in snow
to conjure you in snow
six foot ice sickle impales (in pales?)
and red rope licorice entrails (in trails?)
Girl skating, oh
to conjure you in snow.
Your stolen body asleep
My frozen boundaries can't keep
You talk in parables in streaks
to all the idiots and creeps.

"Tiger Trees"

I saw your cursive name get drawn
Its pinking tendrils blanket my lawn
Its whipping q's spell:
"I want you to believe my name."
You're tiger tree branch and I'm the leaves
Your roaring cataracts are not believed
I've got six friends.
I wish that they could see your name
And they don't.

Our Friend Ariel's Favorite Song.

He once told me and Emily that if there were one song he could play for anyone, this would be it.

For you, buddy:




Lyrical Preview Pt 1

"Expression Of"

Richard thinks he ripped a hole in me, a hole in me.
Richard thinks he ripped a hole in me and one in you too.
Frightened bright wants you to feel alone.
He should stay home.
Mechanistic mutilator's dream:
A tome in chrome.
Day sun, night sun - expression of.
Day sun, night sun - the coming of.
I don't know how to wish good things for him
And I don't know what to do.

Dreaming of Skeletons

I had this really strange dream last night where I was record hunting at Eat Records, even though they don't have records anymore and I think it's just called Eat now, and found these crazy, fancy, book versions of Skeleton$' pre-Money records. It was like they were these huge books with all this art, plus the albums on two 10" records. And then all the sudden I was on a college campus and Matt from Skeleton$ came up and was like "oh, that's cool that you found those!". And I was really excited to listen to them but then it was all a dream...

Our New Songs Are There

Almost ready. Spent the day hammering out some of the tunes in the practice space at DBA and then I came home and have been working on some lyrics since.

Here are some samples:

"Phantom friends, their shadow shapes / A secret hallway on audiotape."
"Hiding in the insides / waiting just to meet eyes / Messy Mouth, come back home."
"Frightened bright wants you to feel alone / mechanistic mutilator's dream: a tome in chrome."
"Girl skating, oh, to conjure you in snow."
"A broken mouth I can't explain / a blurry crest with no name / your hooded head in the rain /
anonymous wrecks, snapping new necks."

There will also be our first ever instrumental, called "Psychics." It's acoustic.
