lyrics

I WANT WIND TO BLOW
The Thunderclouds broke up.
The rain dried up. The lightning let up.
The clacking shutters just shut up. There’s no black or white, no change in the light. No night, no golden sun, no graduating flight. There is the sound of cars, the smell of bars, the scraping paw of electric heat. We wait and wait in fluorescent lights sacrificing our true might holding fastly to our useless way, holding hard feelings.
I want wind to blow:
my brains out, my clothes off, my balloon away, sweep me off my feet, to take me up and not bring me back. I want to be removed enough to see days pass at their pace by me and the human head I now clutch in grief to be released. By nature I’m free, I’m the yawning sea, and when I hope for ships I’m lost in the plea.

This album is handcrafted to be as precise as possible with what it wants to show you in its audio. It is truly a representation of a mind degrading, step by step by step. If you're strange like me, and have listened to this more than once... You will find something new each time. This is nothing short of one of the most impressive things I've listened to ever. a1klcf
