LYRICS:

I think we could have seen it
the smoke was rising slow
against the night
the screens and mirrors glowed

As we were shaping stories
and looking through the glass
the sky was moving 
and the planets offered up the past

I say we should have seen it
the light was in the east
while we were blind sculpting songs
about waging peace
———


Never, never would I, never would I believe
believe we got here
Never, never would I believe that we could be so dull

Dull to the way of our voices
And the uptick of our choices

Never, never could I, never could I 
Believe in this show

I am looking for, looking for a way out, way out of this moment

Never, never would I, never would I believe
Believe we bought this
Never, Never would I believe that we could be so cold

Cold to the way of our counting
And the weight of all fears mounting

Never, never could I, never could I
Believe in this show

I am looking for, looking for a way out, way out of this moment

 
One more time we need, need only be silent
We will reap a field of coal, harvest of pain
Only one thing is needed for the triumph of evil
It’s for good men to do nothing nothing nothing nothing

I am looking for, looking for a way out, way out of this moment

Break Our Fall

Greta

A New Compilation Featuring 16 Michigan Bands, Proceeds Go Towards Combating Climate Change.
350 parts per million is what many scientists, climate experts, and progressive national governments are now saying is the safe upper limit for CO2 in our atmosphere.

Unless we are able to rapidly return to 350 ppm this century, we risk reaching tipping points and irreversible impacts such as the melting of the Greenland ice sheet and major methane releases from increased permafrost melt.
On October 24th 2009, people around the world and all throughout Michigan will unite to demand change.

The Strutt, and the I.D.E.A. Association will be hosting a panel discussion on the subject of sustainable development for Kalamazoo. After the event, we will be hosting regular public forums to help facilitate a local sustainable development project. Proceeds from the CD sales will go toward design and implementation.
The success of the 350 movement depends on you! Stay involved! Don't remain silent!

Count Me Down Lyrics
 
Once upon a time I’d be 
Making babies, planting seeds
In an empty country full of dreams
A little sapling of my family tree
I would’ve been good
 
My old man’s been hanging on
Waiting for another John
I suggest that time is gone
He suggests I don’t give up
I could’ve been good
 
Somebody count me down 
 
Well there ain’t no meal that’s big enough
That won’t leave you hungry tomorrow
I keep tryin to fill up 
Won’t someone tell me my last one 
And I’ll be good
 
Somebody count me down

LYRICS:
I saw it for a second but then the light was fading 
Sister morphine was my lady in waiting
Can I help it if I can’t help it now, all the stories I tell myself 
What can I say to you all, it’s fair to say, no words will do 
 
All this time, time is speeding, it’s hard to recognize the life we’re leading 
it’s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land there’s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, it’s each other we will miss 
 Oh the happiest moment of my life, was the saddest moment of my life
Was in prison when my daddy died
They didn’t tell me for fear of suicide 
Told me when I got outside, I started using as soon as I was alone that night 
And I died and I went up straight to him
He said where you been, my troubled son
All this time, time is speeding, hard to recognize the life we’re leaving 
it’s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land there’s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, it’s each other we will miss 
 
Oh the happiest moment of my life, was the saddest moment of my life
 
Oh my love can I just sit and hold your face. We finally made it here but now the light is low.
 
All this time, time is speeding, hard to recognize the life we’re leaving 
it’s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land there’s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
Now I’m feeling kind of faint, I think I need to lay down    
 
Oh you almost saved me
You almost saved me
You almost saved me now
All this time we pledge allegiance to the tune of a thousand treasons 
One nation under something, under water, under mass incarceration
In the age of feast and famine can we disrupt the social canon
Let our children lead s’we all believe, let us see the forest for the trees

All This Time

LYRICS:
higher yet my love, the water is rising 
up on the counter my love, grab a hold tightly — 
don’t you let go my dear, I can’t let you die 
Til your old as I, as old as I, old as I 

look both ways my dear, don’t trip on your laces
But here you lie shot in your sleep by a bullet gone stray 
you gave me your blessing, to keep you alive til ur 
old as I, as old as I, as old as I …  
  
I’ll take all your baggage, and I’ll give you mine,
For the passage of the time, for the distance as old as i, as old as I … as old as I
