MONOLOGUE
Twilight is the part of the day between sunset and full dark.
It feels like the day is over, but... not quite.
There's still a little bit of light left.
That little bit of light can still become something amazing.
So don't lose hope when the sun is gone.
Because today doesn't have to be the end.

VERSE 1
Looking on from a mountaintop as the darkness falls
I've got big plans tonight
Gonna start all over, gonna change the world
And it all begins tonight
Yeah, my life is gonna begin tonight
And I'll make sure they remember my name this time

CHORUS
I'm on my way, they're gonna rue the day when they doubted me
For the last time
Prepare yourselves 'cause I'm here to stay, yeah I'm on my way
(Oh-h-whoa-oh-h-h)
They've knocked me down about a hundred times but I'm back again
Don't try to change my mind
I've got the reins, I'm derailing the train, yeah I'm on my way
(Oh-h-whoa-oh-h-h)

VERSE 2
(The Twilight)
Been on the ropes, but I’m learning to cope until I spark the flame.
(Channel all the fire inside me.)
I’ve got big plans tonight.
(This is a fight to survive.)
I know I gotta shatter the cage of my paradigm
and cease the cycle that haunts me,
Find the hope I buried.
(Forge a new state of mind.)
Yeah, my new life starts when I break the chains.
(It’s time to wake up.)
I’ll make sure that I stay my course this time. (Yeah!)

When Nature Calls

In the spring of 2014, Andy and Brandon went on a late-night walk through a neighborhood near their college campus, eventually finding themselves lying on their backs in the grassy center of a roundabout, talking about life. On February 14th of the following year, they shared their first piece of music together as Roundabouts. “Island in the Stars” is a recollection of that nascent memory and serves as an ode to a decade of Roundabouts.

The monologue originates from the second paragraph of a creative writing piece Brandon wrote in April 2015 called “Sunbeam Dust...”. The coordinates Andy recites belong to that very same roundabout in Whitewater, Wisconsin.

Read “Sunbeam Dust...”:

Lyrics
-----
It was a year since we returned to the island. He and I left home and cut through the university, heading toward the field. They had burned the grass, and everything but the worn-down path was blackened more than the night. Who “they” were is unclear. We found our way to a streetlamp neighborhood, following the same path past those same lighted windows, while creatures—hiding in plain sight—watched with tentative ease. Once we arrived to our roundabout island, we reclaimed our dominance and lay in the center of our land. The sky’s horizon split two shades of blue as contrails cut a gaping fragment through the suburban stars. The moon was near perfection, outshining the tall and creaking incandescent watch-lights. Our motionsick eyes made us believe a planet above shivered and crawled, but it never truly moved from the heavens. And as we lay there, sprawled carelessly in the convalescing grass, we were silent. We let the passing wind speak for us. We were the transitory rulers of time.

Forever Humans EP

If It Means a Lot to You

"Stardust" is the spiritual successor to "Stargazer" and "Orionid (Stargazer Reprise)", from Roundabouts' debut album STARGAZER (2015).


LYRICS

“When is the ship going back?”
“I don’t know; do you even want to go back?”
“Someday, maybe.”

I remember that night,
bench in the park,
long past twilight,
sharing stories in the dark
under diamond-eye starlight.
(I wish this were forever...)

In a world of fantasy,
we were turning into astronauts.
Drifting through our galaxy,
we were turning into astronauts.
You were lost in your thoughts;
(We were turning into astronauts.)
with stardust in my eyes,
I was lost in this song.

I feel your gravity,
celestial tapestry,
standing on the edge of our history.
With stardust in our eyes,
we’ve never felt so alive.

In a world of fantasy,
we were turning into astronauts.
With stardust in our eyes,
we drifted through the sky.
(Yeah!)

___________________________________________

Take my hand for a moment
Lose yourself tonight
There’s no one in the world but you and I

I don’t wanna end up alone
I'm not gonna go on my own
Come with me and maybe we can be
Something other than ordinary
Pirouette to catch your eye
Try to hide my best smile. You’re reading all my signs
I don’t wanna slow it down,
‘Cause this is not the way we should be moving, but it’s alright

Take my hand for a moment
Lose yourself tonight
There’s no one in the world but you and I

I can hear the nightlife calling
Dance with me. We’re on repeat
Beat for beat, routine, we’re synchronized
(I’ll double down on you tonight)
I can hear the nightlife calling
Stuttered rhythm, fracture space and time
The stars align, cast fears aside
(Our universes collide)

You look immaculate
My god, I think you’re perfect.
I look so desperate,
How are you convinced I’m worth it?
Let me try, oh, let me try
To be a little more than all these other guys.
When you take my hand,
I’ll let you spin me around ‘til the sunrise.

The bass line ebbs and flows with the drums inside my chest
As I strike up conversation
In the blink of an eye, we left the club behind
To indulge in love so blind
Now we’re dancing through the atmosphere,
And I can barely breathe, but I’m okay with that
If this is wrong, then I have no idea what’s right

(I think you might’ve changed my mind.)

One night, or the rest of our lives?
I kissed you goodbye

In the blink of an eye
You were gone,
An apparition disappeared
Into the cosmic fog
I’m an astronaut,
Searching for my dancer in the stars

I’d cross the constellations,
Break the fourth dimension wide open
If I could hold you one more time

LYRICS:

**INCOMING STARLOG** 
We’re broadcasting this message to you. Yes, you. Listen close: there's someplace very important that you need to be, and soon. What transpires there will alter what happens next. But hey, don't worry! It's going to be great. Trust us, we've already been through all this. We’ll explain more once you arrive. We’re sending the coordinates now. Are you ready?

Meet up in my driveway
Been talking ‘bout it all day
We’re packin’ up and headin’ for a new place
Hop up on the rocket ship to slip space
We're light years away
But the journey has been going great
I can’t complain, 'cuz when you talk through the radio
I’ve got an angel in my airwaves

It's midnight on the east side
You and I, together under starlight
We’ve been waiting for the right time to fly

When I look at you
I wanna be the glimmer in your eyes
And feel the stars align
So far over our heads
I don’t understand, but I’ll take my chances
When I look at you
I see the glimmer in your eyes
And feel the stars align
So far over our heads
I am ready for whatever comes our way

Load in for the shuttle ride
Wherever we end up is fine
Looking tired with those heavy eyes
It’s alright, you can sleep while I pilot
Chart a vector for the unknown
Refuel, then away we go
Our galaxy is so close
I can taste it on the breeze through my window

It's midnight on the east side
You and I, together under starlight
We’ve been waiting for the right time to fly

When I look at you
I wanna be the glimmer in your eyes
And feel the stars align
So far over our heads
I don’t understand, but I’ll take my chances
When I look at you
I see the glimmer in your eyes
And feel the stars align
So far over our heads
I am ready for whatever

**INCOMING STARLOG** 
Things are going really well! You're right on target. Now, there's a lot you don't know yet but you really can take a chance on this. Things will turn out, we promise. Look at the sky. The constellations will guide you if you’re ever unsure of the next step. We'll help you find the right path, but there’s so much to experience on your way. Take it all in and enjoy the ride.

When I look at you
I wanna be the glimmer in your eyes...
So far over our heads
I don’t understand...
When I look at you
I see the glimmer in your eyes
So far over our heads...

When I look at you
I wanna be the glimmer in your eyes
And feel the stars align
So far over our heads
Got me thinkin’ that we are interstellar

**INCOMING STARLOG** 
Well, looks like you made it. This is where it all began: 
**COORDINATES RECEIVED: 42°51'20.5"N 88°44'33.3"W ** 
A lot has happened, and a lot has been recorded. That was our objective for you all along. Now, take care of each other and keep moving forward. The rest is in your hands.

Interstellar (Single)

Interstellar

An ode to Roundabouts and our journey, both musical and personal. Inspired by a visit to the small town where we first met and started making music.
________________

LYRICS:

“Stargazers, turn your eyes to the heavens. We began this transmission back when your stardust first ignited with the passion of limitless potential, the promise of something more.”

Revisit these places we have come to know
Our footprints, if we trace them back
They lead through the moments we always wanted
Call us travelers
We sidestepped the barricades
Built this foundation
And made our dreams happen
We could have never predicted the magic
And we're only getting started

I set out with nothing
Just wanted to make something
And I’m on my way
Soaring through a fantasy
First time I love the air I’m breathing
Galaxy’s got me believing I’m free
Old eyes open
Here’s to hoping
I can keep my focus
And relish in the present.
It’s time for me to bear witness to a message:
 “You are interstellar”

Revisit this little town that I called “home”
My footsteps, when I consider their path
They pass through all these memories I’ll never forget
I’m a traveler
I never gave up
And built us this station
An oath to my mission
I could have never imagined we’d come so far…

Travelers (Single)
