About Me

"Eyes of the night" is meant to be a bit a creepy but more in like an alice in wonderland + pan's labrynth sort of way -Like its scary, because its meant to be, but I swear its more of a theatrical production than an unconscious expression of irrevocable aingst -- For sxample the "you think theyre there, but where" part is just a description of the feelings that are around at night
"Time to look with softer eyes" is about appreciating and empathizing by males towards others or the lack there of. Its also about changing the masculine image to something softer and surer of what it is to be a man
"The next song was carefully crafted live" -If you listen really closely you can hear shawn at parts- a little to lo -fi for my tastes, but enjoy tobin's looped guiitar and My (Adam Aslan) Organ crack.
"What only lies in your dreams" is a song written when I was working on some job a slave to the man and wandered into a nature preservation in the autumn and saw a deer on a cliff in the dusk, I was like bounding through this field jumping over bushes and what not, and it was mad fun but my time alas was quite short fore I had to work.
-----------------------
She's on the edge is about life spinning out of control and the idea that you can always just pick up and leave any place. And how things can become very static and drive people crazy
--------------------
"Everybobys Banging Everybody in Bangcock" this is the song about driving like a masshole, but not being one.. it details the dangers of driving with the despicable NYC taxi cab drivers and as well the utter hedonism of this supposed buddhist nation where we the worst behaviour in government (military coups) and in secular affairs as well (reckless Over-banging)
----There's videotaped dream which cracks on the intuitive morals that the people of atlantis live by that are religion free and yet no one is chopping the other persons head off. Its based on the idea that we all really do know whats right like 90% of the time we just crack out and do shit that makes everything much more complicatted

Sounds Like: the feeling of sitting down for hours and hours and then suddenly standing up, seeing only white lite, maybe feeling vertigo, dizziness, light headed - you lunge to try to grab on to something in your blindness and vertigo, but alas there is nothing there you fall to the floor, narrowly avoiding an end of table that would have meant a severe concussion - so after listening to the music you will feel good that you have finally managed to get off your ass and avoided any serious injury, go out and buy yourself a strawberry and kiwi smoothie, you deserve it!
