Lyrics:
who are you?
the one that feeds me
where are you?

how do you go?
on and on
like rain does show?

how do you feel?
why on earth
are you not here?

wait, what did you say?
you found it in another way

what did you think?
I was a fool when
I brought him

To your ears
was it a bit to
loud and clear?

looking through
your doing well I applaud you
how do you go
on and on like rain does show?
how could it be
what it means to be so free??
how can you fly??
sand swallows earth with you in their lies....

re-write
if I could I would God knows I've tried
pretend
truth come quick confused meet your end
now that I've cried
the view is clear with new bright eyes
from time with you
I'll learn what I can but God says I'm through

looking through
your doing well I applaud you
how do you go
on and on like rain does show?
how could it be
what it means to be so free??
how can you fly??
sand swallows earth with you in their lies....

What a great feeling! &mdash 06/23/06 - 08:29:29 AM
What a great feeling this song gave me! I have began to get used to your heavy instrumentation and the vocals in the back of the mix. Your playing is very good. This reminds me a little of tool, a perfect Circle etc. Allthough not that much, but the closest referance i can find! A download and a fave!

A floor of sounds, a bit much of reverb in my ears, but fits perfectly in this laid back and sad feeling. The lyrics are wonderful, like it a lot!

Wah works &mdash 06/30/06 - 09:39:05 PM
Quick note: The use of the wah during the chorus kept my attention,
added articulation to what is otherwise a very continuous-sounding
recording.

This really took my somewhere.
I don't really know where. What I do know, though, is that it's a place I've
never been to before but would love to go back to.
Very surreal, very cool.

that big are cool. Nice groove and singing and writing, but that psychedelic guitar is totally fine.
