about

Inspired by Isaac Hayes and the animal life around my mother in laws house in Carroll County. My time there was so cold, I became obsessed with flowers and birds and strings and fuzz guitars, any sunlight I could find.

lyrics

DNA

When I see my cardinal coming
My heart starts to thrumming
I get a charge from physical proximity to animals
I tried to hide in plain sight
Then I entered the forest
In the dream the lush green overtook civilization
I projected a jungle from my fingertips
Traced triangles with my laser eye
Knew that help wasn't coming
Proceeded with caution
The heart of a building can be accessed through the steam pipes
Forgive me, Monsignor
Let me take out my Bluetooth
In the sanctum of marriage
I nearly lost you
Reaching hands through the window
Of a slowly moving car
You got what you wanted
Then I had to return to the past
And still face the music
When the cardinal stopped coming
My whole brain went to thrumming
I put my mask back on and hid among the crows
It's like they look you in the eye sometimes
It's like they look you in the eye
It's like they look you in the eye sometimes
Like you can almost see through their eyes
A new world to populate
It's in the DNA
Never that far away
Encroaching on one another's territory
Unaware of the mutual need to survive
To get to the other side
Of this random universe
With some semblance of sense remaining
Some fire to carry home
