Alex G - "Hollow" 5.24.14

Alex G - Break

a fear of heights, i might sprout wings - 
hope these ropes and shoots really spring! 

i have three feet, i can't pick two - 
which ones wear my dancing shoes? 

la-la-la-lollipop-rockets-bubble-gumdrops 
candy crystallize, can it simplify? 
la-la-la-lollipop-rockets-bubble-gumdrops 
candy crystallize, can it simplify? 

artificial flavours, i can't help but savour 
the sugar so sweet and refined. 
trees see all the colours in droplets of water, 
i could too if i opened my eyes! 
faster and faster, we tuned out the pastor, 
carved names in the pews with our pens. 

la-la-la-lollipop-rockets-bubble-gumdrops 
candy crystallize, can it simplify? 
la-la-la-lollipop-rockets-bubble-gumdrops 
candy crystallize, can it simplify? 

nothings gonna change it... 
gonna change my world. 
nothings gonna change it... 
gonna change my world. 

jackaroo david ain't gonna change my world. 
nothings gonna change it... 
gonna change my world 

change my world, sugar! 
change my world! 

nothings gonna change it... 
gonna change my world. 
nothings gonna change it... 
gonna change my world. 

change it, all the fake shit, 
all the habits that need breaking. 
the ingredients are our making, 
and i'm asking what they're made of. 

it's this percent fructose, 
and this percent aspirin, 
and this percent sucrose, 
and this percent plastic. 
red dye number 5 certified by organic 
government bodies, theres no need to panic. 
it's all going fine, don't you further examine 
why your body feels full, but your soul feels like a famine. 
looking for a shortcut, 
looking for a plan out, 
looking for a hyperlink, 
get me off this planet! 
gravity limits me and i can't stand it! 
make it all sweet, baby, make it all candy! 
anything's mine if i only imagine - 
a kid in a candy store that's diabetic. 
it's all pretty great, but i make it sound tragic - 
make it all sweet, baby, make it all candy! 
make it all sweet, baby, make it all candy! 
cuz we all know that life sucks without la-la-la-la 

la-la-la-lollipop-rockets-bubble-gumdrops 
candy crystallize, can it simplify? 
la-la-la-lollipop-rockets-bubble-gumdrops 
candy crystallize, can it simplify? 

(change my world, sugar! change my world!)

TITLE: Candyfloss
ARTIST: James Wyatt Crosby
RELEASE DATE: May 12, 2017
LABEL: Maisonneuve Music

Written and performed by James Wyatt Crosby (SOCAN). Produced, mixed and mastered by moon:and:6 and James Wyatt Crosby.

"I'd describe this song as being very soft and sweet, almost purposefully schmaltzy," explains James Wyatt Crosby. "We were trying to capture a kind of playful 'lovey-dovey' feeling by experimenting with different sorts of instrumentation and I think we made something really pretty." This dreamy little ditty is definitely chock full of instruments... between the vibes, strings, slide guitar and autoharp, it's enough to make anyone blush.

Vocals, Guitars, Autoharp, Drums, Percussion & Vibraphone: James Wyatt Crosby
Slide Guitar & Angel Guitar: Angel Scorcia
Jaguar Bass: Ivan Ostos
Precision Bass: moon:and:6
Violin: Kourosh Ghamsari-Esfahani

Cover Art: James Wyatt Crosby & Stephen John Crosby

Lyrics:
Today
But I noticed
Still feel the same
I'm tired and I want a different place to stay
Everyday
I'm always wishing things weren't the same way
I always thought that, that fighting shame
Was simple and I kept going feeling this way
But everyday
Was always bringing me down
The shame game.

But I know
But I know
But I know
That I won't get well
And I know
And I know
And I know
That it's all in my mind
But I still would've never really thought I'd be feeling the same way
Like when I see me over here
I wish I was on the other side.

I just wanted to be afraid.
