All their torches ran away, kept the lights inside Face first and buried in the ground with their claws digging down But I would rather see it how it is, where what I see is around me Do you really find it strange that what we see is the same? It's so strange to grow but these things take time We learn as we grow old to shy away from ourselves Sometimes it's best to be alone, just to think for yourself I can feel your thinking brain and what we feel is the same. Do you really find it strange that what we see is the same? I can feel your thinking brain, and what we see is the same.

Monsters 04:05
The sky at night on fire. The smoke, the crowd, and the pyre. See Society come take me from this waking dream. Stones came crashing through my window I tried to get away from myself that night Taking life well it's such a simple concept put it on a torch and burn it all away if you ask me, well, I don't really feel bad that's just how it goes, and it's how I'll Remain A wolf in sheep's armor, his neck is sharp and shorter. See society come take me from this waking dream. Calling out my feral instincts driven by a bloodlust turning teeth into fangs I'm coiled while lapsing in the struggle a moonlit cloak with my soul underneath I'm waking up every morning out from every dream with a body count Your soul has gone and left you, they say it's gone for good now. See society come take me from this waking dream. Machines are built on assembly stripped out from the Earth and kicked by the sky I'm rotting but still with the living underneath the shroud of this grotesque life you made me into a leviathan to be cast away on a shipless sea

You don't have to grow estranged from your cat on the inside that sleeps. For even though we have reached the age when the last good souls will repeat. But I've been around on this rocket heading toward the sun. The past gets faded away the proof that I am gone. Have I got a scratching post in my head? Or is it in my head? The truth will fade in time while I remain in a bed of light to evolve it all away is the proof that I am gone.

Useless, useless, the heavy rain is driving into the sea.

Milk 04:24
Time is wasted to find you your shelf life has long expired put back and left in the heat microbes and photons permeating, come to life inside It's grown and it wants to feed cannibalizing what it used to be from the inside out, take the top off now ripe to the sour taste of what was is not the same When things stay the same, I'm on the side of change.

Opa Surrilisla Passing the torch or playing fire running with wolves and dodging the knives there's a snake in the grass, but there's sheep on the hill feel the sheep? hunt big game Keep your head up, just don't look back you can change your mind or go on vacation get a hotel, travel on safari feel the sheep? Hunt big game. Opa Surrilisla

Space Lunch 06:48
It didn't take long to move on from Fashion Valley and the auto malls I can't keep up this pace with this rocket strapped to a lunch pale shooting into outer space Take the edge off the knife and place it down by your side you carved your name in the chair but I wonder who's going to see it down there? The past has left us behind like some fading stage light I just hope that you haven't gone from your home underground I can feel it when you're tired, locked up inside while I'm out here regretting all my free time weathered living life in a jet stream when there's a lot to be seen you stare at your reflection placidly The curtain calls and the Barron is in his chair twiddling his thumbs while I'm out here all alone The curtain is closing but there's bodies on the stage the show isn't over but can we get out of here already?

about

Buck! Flagstaff, Arizona

Erik Soby and Gabe Bixler write psychedelic music. One time they sold all of their guitars and bought synthesizers. After realizing they went over board and purchased far too many synthesizers they sold some of them and bought a couple of guitars. And that is why Buck! sounds like it does. ... more
