lyrics

It ghosts on by,
It'll blank my mind.
I guess my natural eyes won't hold still.

I laugh and cry.
Somedays, forget to smile.
It's true that throwing away my eye helps me see--
Someone's either there or they're not, giving it all they've got.
If all I want is to receive, I'll be hard to please.

My friends are such a good help, there to hold me up straight.
It's easy to lose yourself in the middle of a cold day,
but those things are starting to change.

It's hard to say all that we mean.
Sometimes the moment sings just fine.

No use to complain,
or to loathe the rain.
We are here all the same, in common grace.

We are either there or we're not, giving it all we've got.
If all I want is to be seen, no wonder it's hard to sing.

I
by Americo

sounds like Incubus, or "The Bends" era Radiohead... this music reeks of the 90's Summerooms

Sea of Glass
by Warbler

this psychedelic folk rock needs to be heard. Sea of Glass is not afraid to be strange, nor is it afraid of sounding a little goofy. the serious moments land well. it's full of personality. Summerooms
