Taylor: During a trip to Costa Rica a while back, I was on a beach after a long night, the sun was rising and I was enjoying the hazy afterglow of an elevated state of mind. Some words came to me then, this feeling of being blissed out next to the sea and just absorbing the sounds that were happening around me - the cicadas, some old men singing nearby and me trying to find a sense of quietness and peace in all of it. A month or so after that we were back in the studio and building up a track with a bunch of psychedelic layers of noise and sounds. We had this really simple drum machine loop going that we were jamming on, we started looping guitars and synths on top of it and just building the melodies linearly. The song started as just the verse, like a 45 second interlude kind of thing. We dug what we had so we kept extending it, one verse, then a verse and a chorus. Then why not try a second verse? Now it's three minutes and we called it a day, three minutes should be enough, right?

Animal

blissed out now
midnight by the sea
cicadas join the old men singing
more going on than anybody sees
waves of love, hey ma
show me what it means

to kill the noise
that’s in my head
all the thousand voices go quiet
fade them out
until they’re gone
just the sound of the waves and the cicadas

what it means

come undone 
here beside the sea
old men singing patterns into me
crashing waves
seabirds on the wind
kill the noise and it's quiet again

to kill the noise
that’s in my head
all the thousand voices go quiet
fade them out
until they’re gone
just the sound of the waves and the cicadas

what it means

Kill the Noise

what I say
is so unclear
all my words misdirected
thoughts come out backwards
what I mean
can you hear
follow me under the surface
where ghosts walk among us

i'm at a distance that words don't reach
skimming the surface i'm in too deep
and you'll only see what i want you to see
i want you to see

i'll make you believe
smile with all my teeth
oh I’ll say i'm alright 
but I'm not fine

no don't give up on me
i'm not how i seem
oh take a look inside
cause i'm not fine

in the space
between the lines
we can rest for a moment
and let silence hold us
don't rush
to fill the void
feel a stillness between us
where words lose their meaning 

i'll make you believe
smile with all my teeth
oh I’ll say i'm alright 
but I'm not fine

no don't give up on me
i'm not how i seem
oh take a look inside
cause i'm not fine

hey can you hear me call
say it’s nothing at all
feel a chill in your bones

i'll make you believe
smile with all my teeth
oh I’ll say i'm alright 
but I'm not fine

no don't give up on me
i'm not how i seem
oh take a look inside
cause i'm not fine

Kill the Noise

Me Not You
