about

Sean and Dino recorded this on July 28-29 at Dino's apartment in Portland, OR. Dino was pushing Sean to do a Bowie or Brian Ferry-style vocal.

lyrics

Don't bother trying to find the gist
I turned into a satirical mess

some lines of common sense surveyed
but
all wistful things completely lie

I wish you were dignified
like me
and all the people that you see
in your soul
a sneaky time trying to seize
and tease
is it you?

I sip a little bit of sun
I should have taken a longer time to ride
the speed and majesty
the majesty
just made me weep
it burned me down to sleep
and oh the dreams…

It came with no surprise
a prototype that fitted so
into your eyes
the jaded colors went to gold
where'd they go?
you know
a stain upon my soul
unfound and I
will go
in time
to there
you know
I'll go

####

and listen to the tone
it's falling so

and common sense has almost
found a hole
to tear within
my mind
this time

it should have
the speed and majesty
I swore, I promised
you and
I went pole to pole

***

I know, I see, I feel and breathe
you can be one with me, if you really want it
All of the things you see and need
everything can be free
if you disembody

It was beautiful but not to me
It was beautiful but not to be
It was beautiful but not to me
It was beautiful but not to me
