Oh, again
loneliness is killing me
I don't know
how to escape from here

my heart, please
don't get cold
stay with me while
love's on hold

tell me
what to do
I'm lonely
give me anything
to ease my suffering

Oh, again
I wish I had a friend
but emptiness
drags me down again

There's so much
I could give
but nobody needs it
nobody cares

tell me
what to do
I'm lonely
give me anything
to ease my suffering

Loneliness (Composition No. 11)

Life in a day

when I water the plants ahead of rain
I think about how little I have done
and having lost many friends for one I gained
makes me wonder are the best times gone?

I gotta say it’s a good thing
that every glen and every crag’s still full of wonder
next time we go hunting
let’s not speak until we learn to speak like thunder 

like thunder
where the syrup’s so sweet
even assassins aren’t willing to die
thunder
where the river’s so quick
even salmon are needing to fly
thunder
where the skies are so laden with gold
even nomads are hammering nails  
thunder
where the grass is so tall
every damnation fails
thunder

when I tell our kids to watch their six  
I marvel at how little I have done
as if a string of words will make the winds 
prop them up and even steer them as they run

we must declare it a good thing
that tiny circumstance can tear our peace asunder 
next time we go hunting
let’s not speak until we learn to speak like thunder

yeah, thunder
where the silk is so smooth
no shirt or skirt ever stays on the skin
where the dawns are so new
not a child nor a man knows the shell that they’re in
where the oceans are vaster
than even the cosmos would seem to permit
where a moment can last us
for all of the lives we have poured into it

when I hold your hand like we were meant
to reach a destination by tonight
yeah we should walk but let’s not pretend
we can cross more than a puddle in our stride

we flash before the thunder calls
before the thunder calls
so let’s not speak at all
till we've been where it goes

thunder

Speak Like Thunder

A storm passes on the mountains not far away as we walk along a path in the desert. The rain moves in sheets obstructing what's beyond. Lightning bursts here and there, silhouetting the mountainous horizon. 

As you may notice, the cover art harkens back to a familiar cover from 1973 and that is intentional, because Andrea and Rebecca are strongly influenced by music from that time period. Many fans of 8000 Miles’ first album, Aggregate, have remarked on that influence. The title Crystal Confetti represents the clarity 8000 Miles is honing in their duo’s style and the contrast of weighted moods and flying inspirations.

The entire album, Crystal Confetti, has been released on Bandcamp. Go to https://8000miles.bandcamp.com to check it out and follow 8000 Miles on Bandcamp to get first notices of new releases.

This is a cry for help from someone trapped in a cubicle.  It is the roar that comes after years of humiliating scenerios where someone is forced to swallow their pride to keep their paycheck.  It is the complete realization of the waste of the workplace.  Working with people you have nothing in common with at a job that offers no real fullfillment.

Simple Questions lyrics:
v1:
Saw her the other day
The most beautiful one
A girl I`ve not in my wildest dreams thought I`d ever meet

And so far I`m right
`Cause I didnt have the guts
To walk her up,and get in touch,asking some simple questions:

Chorus:
If she wanted to dance
If she wanted to talk
If she wanted a coffee,
or to go for a walk
If she could use a laugh,
or if she needed a shoulder
If she wanted to make this night one to remember when she grew older

v2:
Then again yesterday
I saw her in town
Looking ten times more beautiful than any of the other ones around

And then I thought,
If I was a `ladies man`,
I`d hit her up with small-talk and a smile, like only these guys can.

Chorus:
If she wanted to dance
If she wanted to talk
If she wanted a coffee,
or to go for a walk
If she could use a laugh,
or if she needed a shoulder
If she wanted to make this night one to remember when she grew older

v3:
But I`m not one of them,
So here I stand.
Watching her disappear while I`m disappointed with who I am...

-At least in my dreams.
she is coming towards me.
Making me retain my religious beliefs with just some simple questions:

Choirs:

If I wanted to dance
If I wanted to talk
If I wanted a coffee
or to go for a walk
If I could use a laugh
or if I needed a shoulder
If I wanted to make this night one to remember when I grew older

v4:

Then I wake up.
And find myself on my own
I brace myself for coffee as it is a bit draining having alone.

I check my phone for missed calls
although I know there are none
except for boosted coffee broken dreamers like me will always have a dry run.

`Closing`choirs:

yes this is me,
I will always be free.
this evil curse is my destiny.
I`m not much of a dancer.
nor am I a small talker
and I sure as hell wont be remembered when she grow older

Simple Questions

Mon cœur, comme un oiseau, voltigeait tout joyeux
Et planait librement à l’entour des cordages ;
Le navire roulait sous un ciel sans nuages,
Comme un ange enivré d’un soleil radieux.
