Grizzly Bear cover - with classically reinterpreted lyrics
Recorded in 2009

Foreground

have had writers block for a long time and haven't had my laptop I record on in a few weeks. here's a little super janky draft of a new thing, probably needs to be longer, another chorus bit?

ceiling, cold stars and mildew
silence, creak on the stairs
sleeping, dogs  bowel of sinew
changing, shedding it’s hair

driving, deer in the rear view
dealing, a hand unfair
cheapening, here in this grey stew
fading, queasy little square

you cant erase the cut
or gate my blood
or embrace my touch
or remain in love
on an aimless path
to reclaim my laugh
and i made a map to follow what i thought i wanna be like
that isnt easy right
/
painless wont be painless 
oh the easiest things are the worst after all
/
i dont know how to be myself
yeah i dont know if time will tell
fell from heaven and i landed in hell
and im covered in bruises and im losing my yell
i just wanna dream again
oh i want 3D visions in a 3D land
/
in between  my headphones i feel like a pariah
writing down my thoughts and setting them on fire
im looking for something bigger
/
its feels right
everytime on the summer nights
thats what it looks like to be happier than light
youre so energized, run around like a campfire
oh an endless night is a test of time oh anxious night
breath on your neck at night and im seeing these lines grow throughout your face
there is a pace of time and the pace of mind is a different pace
i cant erase those times that you played with my mind and i wanted to say
i cant read your mind like you read my mind every thought of the day
/
painless wont be painless 
oh the easiest things are the worst after all
/
i dont know how to be myself
yeah i dont know if time will tell
fell from heaven and i landed in hell
and im covered in bruises and im losing my yell
i just wanna dream again
oh i want 3D visions in a 3D land

equation
perfecting who you are
and time will always go like that, 
looking up and wondering who you are
and looking for that one person
take a trip around the sun
go away away so i can hide away
go away away so i can hide away
equation
perfecting who you are
equation
perfecting who you are

equation***

something a bit different, more experimental than I'd usually try, quite messy and a bit hypnagogic i hope. needs a lot of work but i think there's potential.

leaving into the night 
hitchhike 
my bike
you will not recognise 
your life 
you are leaving 
you’ll arrive 
tired eyes
city lights sleeping

wishing you’d write a line 
despise 
these lines
you will not analyse 
these cries
you are speaking
you’ll derive 
ired lies 
city lines are sleeping

An indie disco-funk Anthem by Cooldown
--- 

Come down
You know you got to find a way back home
I saw you
Hide everything you had to pass along

Went down to the boulevard
She said we should come down
Baby come down
It don’t abide to fight your brother
Come, come on give me a right

And I don’t 
No I dont understand what it means to be free
Had I gone again 
I would take you with me
So pack your bags 
And move along into the breeze
The breeze yeah

Damn baby alright 
I don’t allow to find your cover blown
Come on give in and try

Calm down
You’re looking for a place to call your own 
I saw you
Shed everything you used to drag along

Went down to the boulevard
She said we should come down
Baby cool down 
I don’t abide to fight your brother
come come on give me a right

And I don’t 
No I dont understand what it means to be free
Had I grown again
I’d spread out like the trees
So watch your back 
And move along into the breeze
The breeze yeah  

Damn baby alright 
I don’t allow to find your cover blown
Come on and give it a try

She said that we should come down baby come down
She said that we should come down baby cool down
She said that we should come down baby come down
She said that we should come down baby cool down

holding me down to rest
going out of my head
i can hear it all getting old and depressed
i wanna plant a flower in your head
youre lonelier than i have ever been
how do you swallow the feeling again
i cant stomach it
im trying to smooth my head
necessary stumbling
syncopated mumblings
listening to nothing and theyre someone again
who could be in love with them
falling out my head, how do we stumble through the echos again
holding me down to rest
going out of my head
i can hear it all getting old and depressed
i wanna plant a flower in your head
youre lonelier than i have ever been
how do you swallow the feeling again
/
trippin over potholes
im grateful a lot though
sometimes im an asshole
you got me by a lasso

Talking Violet - "Delusional" Lyrics

You are gone elsewhere, I am gone sleeping 
Don’t bother to lock the door 
Aren't you delusional I am not dreaming for seeing 
Your hand prints and crying on the floor 

I know you’re wanting more 
But I can’t fake it anymore 

I’ll let you go when someone believes me 
That you once showed me the way to go 
Just ‘cause your hands are bigger than mine 
Doesn't mean the ink won’t show 

Do you hide outside where the deers go? 
Don’t bother to try more 
I am delusional to think I can count for or want more 
Than the animals you’ve walked inside our door 

I’ll let you go when someone believes me 
That you once showed me the way to go 
Just ‘cause your hands are bigger than mine 
Doesn't mean the ink won’t show 

I’ve been trying to heal the sore 
I’ll keep the bracelet in my drawer 
I know that I was the one you adored 
But your version of family is a war 

I’ll let you go when someone believes me 
That you once showed me the way to go 
Just ‘cause your hands used to hold mine 
Makes me wanna see you, glow
