Liner Notes

written right after midnight local time february 1.
finally sat down to record something...
it was supposed to sound something like this, i guess...

Lyrics

moving hands
time the game
round round round
same same same

hours and minutes
ours and theirs
songs at midnight
musical chairs

play the intro
hatch yer plan
first midnight
since the new age began

orbs in motion
time in flux
missing seasons
bag full of fucks

chords and chorus
lost romance
songs at midnight
sleepless dance

talk about the passion
machine learned rage
first midnight
since we turned the page

clock strike echoes
down each lonely path
premonitions
of the aftermath

cartoon faces
clandestine raids
songs at midnight
harmony fades

reconsider
wayward ways
first midnight
for the rest of my days

Hey there, "first song of FAWM starts a capella" twin ;) This is great. The lyrics strike me as very Dylanesque, all these scraps of powerful imagery piled up leaning casually on each other, making a kind of kaleidoscopic patchwork of a song that's threaded together by the slowly expanding instrumental backing.

Love the lyricism here - nice buried intro. Personally the guitar and piano is enough for me, but the beat does keep a nice pace with your lyrics.
