about

From the upcoming album "Waiting for the Sky to Speak" on Spirit House Records and Wilbur & Moore Records - Releasing 03/17/23

lyrics

Dancing on dying grass
To the steady sounds of the highway
Swaying left and right, out of time
On an empty construction site

Sweeping up broken glass
Buying flowers at the hardware store
Cleaning everything up nice, settling
On an empty construction site

I don’t know what is best for you and me
Can two sticky pendulums be happy?

Singing songs with the sun
Then we'll drink the moon under the table
Staggering around in the dark night
On an empty construction site

I don’t know why it’s so hard for you and me
Can two sticky pendulums be happy?

Out on the periphery
They are calling out our names
Pigeons are circling
The time already came
Out on the periphery
They are calling out our names
Pigeons are circling
The time already came

I don’t know what is best for you and me
Can two sticky pendulums be happy?

I don’t know what is best for you and me
Can two sticky pendulums be happy?
I don’t know why it’s so hard for you and me
Can two sticky pendulums be happy
Be happy, be happy?

I knocked down the flowers
While you weren’t watching
Spinning around and around
As the crane is lowering
