Nothing seems to shift from sun to moon
But by the dawn, we’ve drifted out of view
Shut the door and say “I’ll see you soon”
But you wake up, and all the names are new
5 AM, out by the football field
Boys and girls asleep in their tents
But we watched from the press box as the sun rose up
I loved you all so very much
(chorus)
Under the porch, up in the trees
Wait in the gazebo, wade in the stream
Under the bridge, out in the fields
Give me that moment, that moment was real
In the summer breeze beneath the stars
We ate tabs and ice cream bars
but then I shook hands with that canyon
She said to me, “young boy, you are no one”
(chorus)
In your garage, by your bonfire
Drive through the island, crawl through the brier
Down railroad tracks, up on the roof
Tell me your secrets, I need to know the truth
Flakes of shale danced upon the surface
Ripples dissipating as they spread
I felt cold, I felt warm, I felt something
Just my friends, the trees, and I, watching the sunset
(outro)
Did it mean as much to you?
Did it mean as much to you?
I’m losing track of time, the anchor snapped and the boat capsized
My friends are sailing away
And out there all alone, I’ll have no place to call my home
But I can’t beg them to stay
i found this album on bandcamp in high school, immediately ordered the vinyl, and never looked back. rhythmic, emotional, detailed, explosive. it's "mathy" without being corny. takashi kashikura >>>>> Aaron Orpheus
each little tune on this is a microcosm of every electrifying, emotionally resonant moment i've ever had. such simple instrumentals, but each one cuts right to the core at a different angle Aaron Orpheus
