Quiet Eyes

Porcupine Tree - Stars Die Cover

The first remix for 'Index' was done by Pat Mastelotto of King Crimson - Pat is the drummer on the original studio version and did a beautiful job, exactly what I wanted, but in his words…

"I saw a YouTube clip of one of your early shows and Marco was drumming up a storm and I thought damn that's what I wanted to do!  But as a session man on the original track it felt self indulgent for me to send you back a brilliant song with a 'drummer goes nuts' treatment when the song clearly stands on its own as chords and a great story it didn't need it.  But it was always in my head it could be Dave Grohl does Mike Giles over the bar line never stop drumming ... I had the multi tracks so said what the hell let the horses run and see what I can do….”

Vader's Redemption: The Imperial March in a Major Key

From weather to whale song, there's inspiration woven into the universal tapestry. The forlorn, magnetic fabric.

I BET

It’s cold out here in uncertainty, 
How can one person truly love some other self? 
Maybe we’re just complicating to survive mortal consciousness,
I’m scared the chemical that loves may simply leave my head, 
And drying out, I look at you and long to understand. 

Let me warm your heart, 
I’m freezing cold, but it’s a start, 
Come and talk to me, 
I try to speak, but I’m better listening. 

I’m trying to be here, 
And sometimes, it feels real, 
But I’m never here all the way, 
Behind my closed eyes, 
I’m living a thousand lives, 
And sometimes you’re in them, 
And sometimes you never were. 
I already miss you, 
You smile back up at me. 

I believe I’m cornered in love; fade. 
I’m cornered in love, without faith. 

Catch me, 
Falling, 
Child, 
Dreamer. 

So let me warm your heart, 
I’m freezing cold, but it’s a start. 
So let me warm your heart, 
I’m freezing cold, but it’s a start. 

But even as I look at you, I’m drifting, 
And even as I look at you, I’m drifting, 
And as I look at you, I’m drifting, 
I’m drifting out, 
I’m drifting out to sea.
