Lyrics

i was laying back looking at time
wondering when those thoughts traced through my mind
what direction why and where they go
does it really matter these thoughts i sow?
i was picking flowers from the wall(3)

sometimes when i can't think what i signed. all those little things trace through my mind
the difference is that i don't care do you?
the difference is that i was there for you

I was picking flower from the wall
i was picking flowers feeling small

christ! you told me what to do, but i don't know what i should do
I I I can't help myself I I I I 'm not myself
I was picking flowers from the wall
i was picking flowers feeling small

see me feel small

	NICE SENCE! The place where the musical interval is doubtful however it is, coming out, increases atmosphere

	Let's Get Small I like it. Really cool in a late 60's psychedelic kind of way. I like the rawness to an extent but I think some noise reduction on the line hiss is in order. A cool, catchy, trippy song. Like Steve Martin said, let's get small! Check out my latest song called From Nothing

	I Know You guys are really the Residents on shrooms! Those flowers in the picture look like aliens, I bet they eat meat. They're scary. I'm glad you redid this old song of yours - I enjoyed it very much. The production is understated (so easy to get too trippy on a song like this), the playing and singing wonderfully match the lyrics and combine into a slightly creepy psychedelic vibe.

	moon dust in the mulch it's too bad scratch 'n sniff audio doesn't exist (yet). this would smell like strawberry covered daisies, freshly mowed grass, & some teen spirit. i like the miniature echoes & how the whole song seems to sway back & forth. great sound, guys Check out my latest song called glyd

Breakin' out my lava lamp
Nice. Listen through headphones it's really sweet. You
capture that '60s psychedelic vibe. I'll throw you a couple
more DNA traces. Arnold Layne-era Floyd and Donovan.
Way down, below the ocean, which I think is where your
guitars were. Nice dripping, whirling sound. Love the
guitars and vox on this one. Somehow that tape hiss
added to that vibe as well. Sort of like crackin' out the old
vinyl, dimming the lights and letting it spin. Nice job.
