lyrics

LYRICS:

Sometimes, despair’s your only catalyst
It’s like a friend you probably never should have kissed
And hope’s a bird without its feathers
And both its wings are tied together
Stuck up on a roof
It could be me
And I hope it isn’t you.

(Blow the stars )
(Up into the sky)
(Like the seeds)
(Of a dandelion )

Perfect strangers with the benefits
Of all the people and the places that you miss
You shouldn’t have to sell your sorrow
When there’s still money left to borrow
You are still cared for
Enough to fill the ocean to the shore

Until the sun and moon explode
Until the mountain takes the road
Until the deepest lake goes shallow

Once Upon a Time in Bombay Beach

supported by 6 fans who also own “May: Bird Without Feathers”

Although I normally like to play music in mixes of 3-5 artists at a time, the "long track" on this album actually works better than all the songs played separately and mixed with other music. Some great psychedelic and surf guitar work on here. If you like this, try Golden Dawn Arkestra and Ouzo Bazooka. xpatofthemind
