the guitars are buzzin all around my head i love it 👌👌

This is a great example of how production quality means nothing, the writing made this great.

great guitar tones they blend together very well

Ah, I love the dueling, panning guitar leads. Very psychedelic, reminds me of stuff like Spacemen 3

Very trippy!  Kinda like space rock, but with just the guitar parts.

so pretty, love how you experimented with the sounds

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyrics;
Love is blindness/I'm just another fool
I finally found it stumbling back to you
What are you looking for? 
What are you trying to prove?
If love is blindness/Love is blind

Faith don't fail me now
I'm looking for a rhythm to it all
I'm searching for anything to break my fall
I'm coming down
I'm coming down

So look at your hands love, do your scars match mine?
I'm caught up in waiting, or am I just wasting my time?
And the pieces, they don't align
Fading slowly, yeah slowly

Love is blindness/It looks like I'm the fool
I found and lost it/ lost it all again
So what are you looking for?
I said I'm looking for peace
And if love is blindness then fine
Cuz I don't want to see
I don't want to see

Letra;
El amor es ciego/Yo soy el imbécil
Por fin lo encontré/Tropezando a ti
Qué estás buscando?
Qué quieres demonstrar?
Si el amor es ciego/el amor es ciego

Fe no me falla ahora/Estoy buscando el ritmo de todo
Estoy buscando algo para parar mi caída
Estoy cayendo
Estoy cayendo

Miréte las manos mi amor, tus cicatrices reflejan las mías
He estado esperando, sólo estoy malgastando el tiempo
Los pedazos no alinean, Estamos disaparaciendo lentamente, lentamente

El amor es ciego/parece que soy el imbécil
Lo encontré y perdí de nuevo
Qué estás buscando?
Yo sólo busco la paz
Y si el amor es ciego está bien
No quiero ver
No quiero ver

Lyrics;
I've been here before
My head and my heart are at war
I don't need you now
No, I don't need you now

Somebody told me that you were lonely
As lonely as I am
Somebody told me that you were looking for someone to hold your hand

I've been here before
My head and my heart are at war
I know that I don't need you now
But I could really use you now

So I'll bottle up this anger
I'll bottle up this love
I've got a thousand bottles and I never open them

I've been here before
My head and my heart are at war
I could really use you now
But I don't need you anymore

Me, I'm lonely and I'm lost
And I'm looking for someone just to be with
Just to be with you
Just to be with
Just to be with you

My heart's gone
(Just to be with you)
I've lost it all
(Just to be with you)
On my wrist there's blood
(Just to be with you)
My love, it's hard
(Just to be with you)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Letra;
Ya he estado aqui
Mi mente y mi corazón están en guerra
No te necesito ahora,
No, no te necesito

Alguien me contó que te sientes sola
tan sólo como yo
Alguien me contó que estás buscando
a alguien para colgarte la mano

Ya he estado aqui
Mi mente y mi corazón están en guerra
Y yo no te necesito ahora
pero me haces tanta falta

Embotellaré esta rabia
Embtellaré este amor
Tengo un mil de botellas y nunca las abro

Y ya he estado aqui
Mi mente y mi corazón están en guerra
Me haces tanta falta
pero ya no te necesito

Y yo, yo soy sólo
y estoy perdido
y estoy buscando a alguien solo con quien pueda estar
Sólo para estar contigo
para estar contigo

Mi corazón, ya no lo tengo
-Sólo para estar contigo-
Ya perdí todo
-Sólo para estar contigo-
Hay sangre en mis manos
-Sólo para estar contigo-
Mi amor, es tan difícil
-Sólo para estar contigo-

Track 5 off of the album "The Flame Knows no Anger"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyrics;
Fired from a gun your words all kill the same
They say that hate is the loneliest game
Your mind breaks open like a shell
Spilling wisdom that your words could never tell
They could never tell
Time ticks on disregard the broken clock
We must find out who we are and forget what we're not
Shattered pictures from the past
Your gaze falls to the hourglass

So shine brighter
Your light it's an aurora

All will bend but it's only your heart that breaks
When it's over we will laugh at our mistakes
I remember the day the sun dropped
There were shadows in your eyes as the streetlights lit the block
Blinding light when two worlds collide 
If you've read the news you know there's no such thing as a silent night
So what will you find when you run away?
You'll find that the black and the white in this world have turned to grey
They've turned to grey

So shine brighter 
Your light, it's an aurora

What are you shining for?
What are you shining for?

Shine brighter
Your light, it's an aurora
It's an aurora

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Letra;
Disparada por una pistola todas tus palabras matan igual
Dicen que el odio es el juego más sólo
Tu mente se parte como un huevo
Dejando caer sabiduría como tus palabras nunca podrían decir
Nunca podrían decir
El tiempo sigue perseverando
No importa el reloj parado
Tiempo para averiguar quienes somos y olvidar que no somos
Unas pedazos del pasado en el piso
Tu mirada vuelve al reloj parado

Muestra tu luz aún más brillante
Tu luz es un aurora

Todo se doblará pero solo los corazones se rompen
Cuando se acabe nos reiremos de nuestras faltas
Yo recuerdo el día en que el sol se cayó
Habían sombras en tus ojos mientras las luces de la calle se prendieren 
Hay una luz cegadora cuando dos mundos se chocan
Si has leído las noticias ya sabes que no hay una 'noche de paz'
Y que encontrarás cuando estás escapando?
Encontrarás que el negro y el blanco en tu mundo han convertido en grís
Todo es grís 

Entonces muestra tu luz aún más brillante
Tu luz es un aurora

Para que estás brillando?
Para que estás brilando?

Lyrics;
Oh me, I don't see just what you see
I guess you could say that the magic was lost on me
This time I've got my eyes open wide
I just want to see you for who you are
Would you see me for who I am?

I've been thinking this is where I belong
Breathe deeply, why you singing the same old song
The same old song
Stumbling blindly/Heads up in a knot
Believing I'm someone I'm not

Memories, what a bittersweet friend
To comfort and torment and never forget
And peace, what a fleeting thing
From faucet through fingers, leaving droplets on your skin

I've been thinking this is where I belong
Breathe deeply why you singing that same old song
The same old same old same old
Stumbling blindly/heads up in a knot
Believing I'm someone I'm not
Someone I'm not
Someone I'm not
Someone I'm not
Someone I'm not
This is where I belong 
(This is where I belong)
When you're playing that song
(When you're playing that song)
This is where I belong
(This is where I belong)
When you're playing that song
(When you're playing that song)
Stumbling blindly
(This is where I belong)
Break me open
(This is where I belong)
This is where I belong

Lyrics;
Love, I've heard it's a fools game
It's okay if you feel that way because I feel the same
This town, it wasn't built for dreamers
So I'm running away cuz it seems I'm the dreaming sort

Oh, living in a crazy world
I'm caught up in the midst of the madness
and God, I could use some static
Will you be my static girl?
My static girl
My static girl

Memories fall heavy on my eyes
Thick as worries on my mind
And you're paper thin
Look what you've done to me
You left me here lying like a half-finished masterpiece
And I catch myself thinking I could use your hands on me

Oh, living in a crazy world
Everybody here knows it's madness
God, I could use some static
Will you be my static girl?
My static girl
My static girl

You only get one shot and it's gone
To make the memories that you want to live on
You only get one shot and it's gone
To show who you really are
Who you really are

You only get one shot and it's gone
To make the memories that you want to live on
You only get one shot and it's gone
To show who you really are
Who you really are
Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
You're my static girl

Letra;
El amor, yo he escuchado que es un juego de tontos
Está bien si te sientes así, yo siento lo mismo
Éste ciudad no es para soñadores
Entonces voy escapando porque parece que soy algún tipo de soñador

Oh, vivo en un mundo loco
Estoy atrapado en la locura
Y dios, necesito a algo estático
Serás tú mi chica estática
Mi chica estática

Las recuerdos caen pesados en mis ojos
Como preocupacciónes en mi mente
Y ahora solo vives en una foto
Mira lo que has hecho
Me dejaste como una obra maestra incompleta
Y me doy cuenta que estoy pensando que me hace falta la toca de tus manos en mi piel

Oh, vivo en un mundo loco
Todos sabemos que es una locura
Y dios necesito a algo estático
Serás tú mi chica estática?
Mi chica estática
Mi chica estática

Porque solo recibes una oportunidad y ya se te pasó
Para hacer los recuerdos que quieres que te sobrevivan
Porque solo recibes una oportunidad y ya se te pasó
Para mostrar quien eres de verdad
Quien eres?
Quien eres?
Quien eres?
Eres mi chica estática

Lyrics;
Leaves Drop and the pumpkin rots
and winter bites down hard
And that's me, the fool
Standing with his foot in the door
Screaming "This isn't how I want it to go!"

And the wheel keeps turning
And the butterfly keeps breaking it's back
And I still can't get you back

Come on closer to me/Break on out of your routine
Come on closer to me/Break on out of your routine

Cuz I need you and I hope you're needing me too
Cuz I need you and I hope you're needing me too

Headaches and pills, and that lump in your throat
Of the words you just can't get out
And I'm always right beside you 
But don't ask me for advice
Cuz I'm still trying to figure out my life

And the wheel keeps turning
And I guess I still ain't learned yet
That I will never get you back

Come on closer to me/Break on out of your routine
Come on closer to me/Break on out of your routine

Cuz I need you and I hope you're needing me too
Cuz I need you and I hope you're needing me too

And if I'm left to my own devices 
I might just never wake up again
And if I'm left to my own devices 
I might just never wake up 
I might just never wake up 
I might never wake up again
Never wake up
I might never wake up again
Never wake up

Letra;
Se caen las hojas, se pudren las calabazas
Y empiece hacer nieve
Y el invierno hinca el diente 
Y ese soy yo, el tonto con su pie en la puerta
Gritando -No quiero que se suceda así-

Y sigue rotando la rueda
Y sigue aplastando la mariposa
Y todavía no te puedo recuperar

Ven aún más cerca a mí/Rompa esa rutina tuya
Ven aún más cerca a mí/Rompa esa rutina tuya

Porque yo te necesito y quiero también que tú me necesites
Te necesito y quiero también que tú me necesites

Un dolor de cabeza, unas pastillas, y un bulto en la garganta
Las palabras que no alcanzas decir
Y siempre estoy a tu lado pero no me pidas consejo
Todavía no sé como manejar mi propia vida

Y la rueda sigue rotando
Y, pues, parece que no he aprendido
Que nunca te voy a recuperar

Ven aún más cerca a mí/Rompa esa rutina tuya
Ven aún más cerca a mí/Rompa esa rutina tuya

Porque yo te necesito y quiero también que tú me necesites
Te necesito y quiero también que tú me necesites

Y si me dejen a mis propios recursos
Tal vez nunca voy a despertar
Tal vez nunca voy a despertar
Tal vez nunca despertaré
Nunca despertar
Tal vez nunca despertaré
Nunca despertar

Winter

Lyrics;
[Katrina driving away]
The change in your pocket and your mother's car
didn't get you very far
All you've ever wanted is to want no more
and you've wanted that for far too long

Oh Katrina! Ah ah ah
You thought you could do this on your own
Oh Katrina! Ah ah ah
You couldn't have been more wrong

It takes a couple failures, a couple "told you so's"
to remember who you are
You can change your mind and you can change your name
but your heart remains the same

Oh Katrina! Ah ah ah
Thought you could do it on your own
Oh Katrina! Ah ah ah
You're gonna need your friends tonight

All this time just to hold you near
For a while I thought I knew you dear

Sitting in your kitchen talking to yourself 
about your great big lofty dreams
Counting on a wishing star to fall tonight
It aint gonna fall

Oh Katrina! Ah ah ah
Thought you could this on your own
Oh Katrina! Ah ah ah
You can come back home
