Elysian Fields - Octopus (Syd Barrett)

from "Ghosts of No" (April 29, 2016)
http://elysianfields.bandcamp.com

Are you afraid 
Afraid of the dark 
You’re taking a dip 
And one slip 
You’re swimming with sharks 
Before my eyes 
Words, they are swimming 
If you won’t 
There’s someone else who’s willing 
And the view 
From high up can be thrilling 
You and I could surely make a killing 
Won’t you sign please 
Ignore the conditions 
The cost of your soul is the cost of admission 
I followed a word 
The word of the seasons 
She whispers endure 
But gives me no reason 
A one way trip 
Can just get you so far 
The tissue has hardened and stiffened 
Turning to thick scar 
How can I 
How I can lead them? 
Dragging a stone up a hill 
Ain’t much to believe in 
So I keep pushing 
Some call it ambition 
The cost of your soul is the cost of admission 
If there was a town 
For roaming outliers 
I’d be cutting a rug with you, babe 
Instead of these wires 
There once was a star 
That dreamed of flotation 
Slept in a wine dark sea of lower sensation 
God bless the trees 
God bless the branches 
Spread your message beyond invisible dances 
Hiding your roots below ground 
Don’t take no chances 
And that star had a premonition 
The cost of your soul is the cost of admission

Once again we recognize no boundaries around these parts. The open border steez is my lifestyle choice. Don't cage me in, bro, sis, they, srsly. Let me live. Let the music thrive. It comes from all over the place and I want it all. And I want to share it with you. We go round and round with this one and as always it's a surprise. Love to hear what you think of it. I give my email in a few points in the show and think that you should hit me up and let me know that you are listening. No more social media for me. This is between us. Also comments are disabled because of spammers trying to sell me plays. I would rather have 100 real ones than a million fakes. I know y'all feel me, because you are here, for some reason. Let me know where and how and when you listen and let's chat soon.
