Origami 02:30
I make a fold and then I unfold it I make a fold and then turn it over the edge I make a song and then I unsong it I make a song and try to unfold it with care I'm afraid to ruin all my calculations and have it be absolutely assymetrical Could it still be beautiful with imperfections? if it's honestly vulnerable... I get in a rhythm then I just complicate it I make a rhythm just to indulge myself in it Get in a rhythm stop trying to make a statement seriously, get in a rhythm! try not to break it this time focus, focus, focus, focus... I'm afraid to sabotage my preparation and have it be a pathetic waste of my time Am i still an artist if my songs are shapeless? if I'm honestly, honestly, honestly vulnerable...

Angel Fish 02:54
Angel fish, how've you been doing? Are you still chasing the light? I'm fine and my music is blooming but I promised myself not to write... How is the sun in Virginia? Did the cicadas come out? I'm fine and I've never felt fuller stringing the sounds from my mouth. I don't look about my feet for lilies in the concrete I hum and drum when I can't sleep 'cause music makes me happy I don't believe in God and you don't believe in people I want to die of love you want the church and steeple Is there such thing as belonging? Probably not where I've been maybe we're set for another summer where gestures are seamless like dreams in your stream. But I don't believe in God and you don't believe in people I want to die of love you want the church and steeple I don't believe in God and you don't believe in people

Ginger 03:01
Burning on the bed so incandescent and transparent oh ginger, like fire seize the innocence and toss it away oh ginger, I know the pain of thinking you understand it all flat on the wooden floor your mandolin roars and I will never know why you keep throwing porcupine bombs Ginger nine we have reached a stalemate the pressure and the pain they tick tick tick like a bomb in your chest Ginger, why I swear I did all of my best I swear I did flat on the wooden floor It's hard to get up the sounds and the colors are messing us up so organically losing complicity falling all out of touch we're falling out of touch

Labyrinth 05:22
Like a bird dives against the corner of a room again and again like a fish bangs against the corner of a tank I destroy myself Freedom is out there somewhere if I could only find the window freedom is out there somewhere if I could only find the window Like a wave breaks against an all-envolving dam I am something other than myself and freedom is in here somewhere if I could only find the window freedom is in here somewhere if I could only find the window the labyrinth inside is the labyrinth outside is the labyrinth inside is the labyrinth outside is the labyrinth inside is the labyrinth outside...

Sober 02:48
Spinning star we were speaking in circles cigarette after cigarette we spun the signs you were blue like the earth on your shoulder you looked sadder and older than the crumbling view I don't have the sense to walk away I just want to see you sober you withdrew into violent reactions I can't take the actions to get through to you and I knew you were desperate and tired and I felt like a coward for humoring you I don't have the sense to walk away I just want to see you sober sober

Ariel 03:26
Round at the edge of my first life I dreamt labyrinths Argentinean dragons fire from behind a screen Round at the edge of my first life I can see the sea, I seize the sea like a wave of colors rising over me Aluminum and karma dungeon urban herb and sinking sand may I bathe inside your ocean? Ariel, your current calls my caution to cave in Yeah you know I've been breaking my body to bend my intentions like day of the dead you revived my spirit in your bed I thought that I had lost the connection Find you when I find myself found you now find you when I find myself found you now Yeah you know I've been breaking so badly to change my preceptions I take the blame but I can't take the feeling ever again do you understand where I'm coming from? Aluminum and karma dungeon urban herb and sinking sand may I bathe inside your ocean? Ariel You're in the air and real to my skin

Stardust 05:40
Someday the sun will explode I think so it will be and all the tiny bits of art and books and buildings will all turn soft and meaningless and free Someday the sun will explode and every name and claim to fame will disappear when all the tiny bits of love and truth and science will merge in one and become indistinguishable from each other Stardust to consciousness how come I am an atheist and broken hearted? stardust to consciousness how could love it not exist back when eternity started if I hold it all in the palm of my hand If I hold it all... Someday the sun will explode and every heart will burst in synchronicity when I get sad and lost and mad and nihilistic I'll think that I'm a dream within a dream Stardust to consciousness how come I am an atheist and broken hearted? stardust to consciousness how could love it not exist back when eternity started if I hold it all in the palm of my hand If I hold it al in the palm of my hand If I hold it al in the palm of my hand well, if I hold it all...
