about

This is live from our last show at Burt's Tiki Lounge, which was SLC's oldest rock bar until the second they made it legal to sell your liqour license. We played there a regularly as we could for the couple years previous.

lyrics

Change shapes in the day, to things you've never seen
In the microwave scene, with new back-lit leaves
After a late night of flashlight eyes and flashlight screens.
Strange how cold tops the day with washed off dirt
That lays flat on the ground, flat on your grave
That spins perfectly round, perfectly made
Hey shit for brains, 'got attitude for gains? Got greeting? Got what you belong?
Or all you lost in the black and white dreams and black and white sound?
Trade old guilt to pay for gold hilted blades, and wonder, it creeps down the hall
To see wings over the wall, and not be able to turn it off, and in the night, run for your life down that same hall
And they've never even made it to the dawn and that's all I do- three at a time, the light birds strike!
One more dawn, one more night to make it right, another rite.
Track a single rain from the cloud to the ground, it's gone, and then it's gone
Who'd you hit, and who'd you slip by as you spread your fingers all apart to catch all of the air that you can on the way down
And it's one burst in a week or in an hour
On the wet ground it goes away by itself in a smooth gloss that mirrors the sky so who knows: it's going back? who cares, you can't be there now.
You can't be here but you can be there now.
