What You Call a Dream

https://awal.ffm.to/tessellate

Lyrics:
Fall backwards, you’ll never look down
And fall faster, you’ll never hear a sound.
I’m calling on my saviours to gather round.

Fall backwards, you’ll never look down
And fall faster, you’ll never hear a sound.
I’m calling on your saviours to gather round.

So call later I would’ve passed out, 
An hour later you'd never touch the ground.
I’m holding on to silence and slithered arms.

I can’t keep hold of you.
We’re losing grip. We fight the slip again.

It’s not time to bury your memory now.
It’s not time.

I’m surer it’s always about a foot soldier with a penchant for doubt.
I’m calling on your saviours to turn around.

Ten wrappers to bring you back up,
Now we're trapped til you try and taper out.
Your mother kept her patience unlike her spouse.

I can’t keep hold of you.
As you fade right out of view.
We’re losing grip. We fight the slip again.

It’s not time to bury you.
It’s not time to bury your memory now.

“There's a line in this song that says "death on the sidewalks, I can't breathe”. That line was written around 3 years ago. This song has had a bit of a journey.  In 2014, at the age of 14, I saw the video of Eric Garner's murder at the hands of the NYPD and I couldn't get that out of my head. I was in high school at the time and I struggled to process the emotions it provoked in me.  It stayed with me, it was a hard song to write. We kept struggling with it, then taking it out on tour, then went back to the drawing board, then putting it aside again.  It went on like that until we finally figured out what we wanted to say with it. In the summer of 2018, we recorded the song during our first recording session for this EP.  

Unfortunately, that phrase is still relevant today, with the murder of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis, Javier Ambler in Austin, Texas, Elijah McClain in Aurora, Colorado, and Manuel Ellis in Tacoma, Washington, just to name a few.

HMT is the first song that I've ever written about anything outside of my own life, or my own life experience. That's what the line "holding my tongue" is about. I felt like I could have started writing in this voice a lot earlier on in my life, but I was holding myself back from doing so, I think out of fear of not communicating my anger well.

It took me longer than I am proud to admit to remember that this is why I write songs, to talk about things that stick with me, bother me, or that matter to me. 

We've never been a "political" band, but this isn't a political statement, this is me saying that people need to stop being killed. It’s about human rights.”

I been holding my tongue way too long 
It’s got me going (change)
Purgatory’s not where I belong 
But I was terrified of using free speech at all 
Living in the fear of an open mouth with nothing to say at all 
Are you alive? How can you see this and still smile? 
Are you alive? How can you survive and not wonder why?

Eyes under wool, it’s hard to see 
Death on the sidewalks
I can’t breathe

Why does it always need to come to this?
Yeah I think action usually does more than sentiment
So don’t stop looking, don’t tap out, don’t go home
because the longer this goes on there will be nowhere to go
So send your thoughts and prayers, words without action just move air.
And we can find every reason not to care

Too many post-life apologies, never really sorry, never really honestly
Nothing’ll ever change if we’re just standing by, waiting for the right time
