An upbeat track about a relationship going downhill…

Great Apes

I’m looking down the avenue wondering how to make my escape
And if we really merit our status among the great apes

I was driving at a hundred miles an hour till you stepped on the brakes
You know there’s islands in the lakes on the islands in the Great Lakes

You said you get out of life what you put in
I said well, you should, but that’s the thing
We’ve all got our battles, we’ve all got our cares
I once knew a tortoise who dreamed of a world without stairs
Your jokes don’t cover all your demands
You’re a taxman’s letter printed in Comic Sans
 
Every raindrop on the window’s a fisheye lens that turns the world upside down
And all I hear is your silence when I walk through the crowds in town
 

I got a reputation as an underachiever
The trouble with self-deprecation is some people believe you
I know I got some things wrong back when we were rooming
Hello Action Man, meet Consequence Woman

There’s a vanishing point on the road to hell that leads the eye far into the fire
There’s a missing rung on Jacob’s ladder that stops the likes of me getting higher

Thinking about the time when you wrote me a sonnet
Now I hear your dartboard’s got my face on it
And I’m looking down the metal stairs wondering how the fire escapes
And if we really merit our status among the great apes
If we really, really merit our status among the great apes

Great Apes

Written & Produced by PJ Pearson

I’m moving my family to the end of the earth 
Near the cape of good hope
Where the blue birds are soaring 
On the thermals of love 	

And down on the beaches are statues of all
Those people you knew
But your never sure why
No your never sure at all

And I’ll never move out
No I’ll never move out of an Angel’s way

Dry cement it will not hold your heavens up 
Dry cement it will not hold your heavens in

And on the fifth of September we gathered our belongings
And we headed for the coast
To the voice of no gods  
Where the church bells were rising 
On the thermals of love
And out under the waves where the sea falls apart
Swam a mariners girl
And with her mineral eyes she said
 ‘oh your too late'
But I'm never sure why
No I’m never sure at all

Dry cement it will not hold your
Your Universal Will to become

	
   	
   	
   	
  

Cape of Good Hope

Saudade, n. portuguese - a feeling of longing, melancholy, or nostalgia

When you're alone in bed
And your whole day plays through your head
Picture me instead
Talk to me, you can talk to me for hours

When it's raining out there
I hope you stay unaware 
Stick with me and we'll share a little time
Seconds, minutes or some hours

So when you can't convey 
Can't find the words to say 
You're feeling Saudade you know 
I'll never be that far away

When you've got too much on 
And everything you're doing feels wrong
Get through 'em one by one
I wish that I, I wish that I could do them for you

Stay in bed all day
Curtains keep the whole world away 
And we can do whatever you want to do 
As long as I, as long as I can do it with you. 

So when you can't convey 
Can't find the words to say
You're feeling Saudade you know
I'll never be that far away

I know you've had your highs
I know you've had your lows
I'll be there by your side
Through all the to's and fro's
Ignore the warning signs
I'll show you how this goes 
If you just shut your eyes
I'll be there for you, love

So when you can't convey
Can't find the words to say 
You're feeling Saudade you know 
I'll never be that far away.

Valley Maker - Branch I Bend

Baby
Tie my wrist before I hit the sun
Before the backseat
Blows right out throughout the windows gone

Now what's this city and who’s the people 
Oh alright
I’m dressed up pretty, real delightful for the night
But I was nearly suicidal before your car arrived

Moving up to the villas
Kill a bit of time 
Prom tomorrow night

Tasting sweet how the wind blows
But get your head inside
I need you here alive

Now what's this city and who’s the people 
Oh alright
I’m dressed up pretty, real delightful for the night

Moving up to the villas
Kill a bit of time 
Just for one last time

Now maybe
This is the last of what there is to feel
It’s only different places
Poor imitations 
Fucking actors trying to speak like you speak

Moving up to the villas
Kill a bit of time 
Prom tomorrow night

Tasting sweet how the wind blows
But get your head inside
I need you here alive

Now what's this city and who’s the people 
Oh alright
I’m dressed up pretty, real delightful for the night

Moving up to the villas
Kill a bit of time 
Just for one last time

i’ll be smoking on sunset plaza
writing notes on my wrists 
as i stroll along the stolen hill
i hum a song that sounds like this

it sounds like 
it sounds like
it sounds like 

i’ll be squatting on a dirt patch
insects sitting on my sun tan
dance with gina on the mountain
best believe we’re humming songs that

sound like 
they sound like 
they sound like
they sound like

Sunset Plaza

📝 Lyrics:

As the rising sun is lighting up our homes
Water’s flowing on, always on the run
And our mind’s are going like the water flowing
To that resting place that we’re rarely knowing

I don’t want to record, every thought of mine
But I’m not in accord with the knowing I find

As the ground below, changes like we grow
Living as if we know, everything and all
While the mind is here, shining like the mirror
Showing us the fear, that we rarely clear

I don’t want to record, every thought of mine
But I’m not in accord with the knowing I find

Facing the form where we reside
Breaking apart what we deride
And from the bottom looking out we’ll ignite
All of the things that make ourselves known

We will know another kind 
In our time, in our time

We will know another kind
In our time, we’re going to grow
In our time, we’re going to grow
In our time
