lyrics

freedom of the land
all roads are felt by my feet
from Arizona fled
on the way passed Black Canyon City

I’m not there
but I am

where are you then
if not there
if not when
do I alone get wherever I am?

somehow the noises
that I once knew
familiar are now changing
and so I fumble
to make out the sound
is it singing or is it suffering?

my mind’s back on Black Canyon City

I’m not them
but I am

who are you then
if not them
if not sent
if not rising
whenever you land

and so I wander
down to the docks
to study the bay where I grew up
that day the whitecaps
we’re few and far
and the light I felt off the water
so calm

I will never know a life that’s
less than in someone else’s eyes
I’ll never know a flower grown to hide
I’ll never know a day without sunlight
I’ll never know what’s always on your mind
where there is less white, there is more love, there is more light

I will never know a life that’s
less than in someone else’s eyes
I’ll never know a day without sunlight
I’ll never know a flower grown to hide
I hope you know you’re always on my mind
where there is less white, there is more love, there is more light

Under The Sun
by Mark Pritchard

I love the space in between everything he's doing, and how every sound is manicured to be as pure as possible. "Infrared" and "Beautiful People" are big highlights for me. Jaws of Love.

Double Negative

BJ Burton's production work on this was like a compass for Danny Reisch (co-producer) and I. The brutality and crushing of everything is so breathtaking. "Dancing and Blood" blows my mind every time. Jaws of Love.
