WE UNPACK OUR HEIRLOOM DISORDER
IN THE FATHER, THE SON, THE GHOST
FIND SOME PEACE ON 8 TRACK RECORDER
LIKE THE BEACH, THE SAND, THE COAST
MOVED OUT OF THAT EAST SIDE APARTMENT
FOR THE HILLS, THE TREES, THE CREEK
NOW WE'RE WORKING TO PAY THE RENT
A LITTLE, MORE FREE, SO TO SPEAK
AND I'VE BEEN FIGHTING WITH THE STRUCTURE OF THE SONG
I'VE BEEN FIGHTING WITH THE STRUCTURE OF IT ALL
IF I COULD JUST LET IT GO…
WE TRIED TO FIND A HOME
IT WAS MADE OF CEDAR AND STONE
WITH THE RIVER BANK JUST A SHORT WALK UP THE ROAD
YOU WERE TRYING TO FIND SOMEWHERE TO BE
A LITTLE MORE CLEAN, A LITTLE MORE FREE
BUT MONEY IS TIGHT AND A CORPORATE JOB AWAITS
IF I WAS IN YOUR POSITION, I KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO
I’D TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN, JUST TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN

ON A CESSNA PLANE FEELS LIKE A BUMPY ROAD
ON A MOTORBIKE WE HIT ALL THE HOLES
WE YELLED LOMO CALLED FOR PUBLICOS
EVERYTHING'S A RHYME SOUTH OF MEXICO
IN THE CARIBBEAN CLAIMED OUR PIECE OF LAND
POPULATION TWO MADE LOVE IN THE SAND
ON AN ISLAND WITH NO TRAFFIC LIGHTS
COVERED IN NOSEEUM BITES
WHERE WILD HORSES HAVE ROOM TO PLAY WE'D RATHER STAY
MICROORGANISMS MAKE A GLOWING BAY
IN THE NIGHT SKY THE NORTH STAR HAS GONE ASTRAY
SPOTTING UFOS LOOKS LIKE VINCENT VAN GOGH
ON THE COASTLINE CAUGHT IN THE UNDERTOW
SO IT'S MARLBORO LIGHTS AND A CAN OF COKE
FOUND AN ANCIENT TREE SOME KIND OF OAK
ON AN ISLAND WITH NO TRAFFIC LIGHTS
MAKING UP FOR THE AGENT FIGHT
WHERE THE WILD HORSE HAVE ROOM TO ROAM
WE COULD MAKE A HOME
ON A TAXI RIDE PAID HIM WHAT WE OWED
MANHATTAN LIGHTS DID WE SELL OUR SOULS
WE JUXTAPOSE ALL THE HIGHS AND LOWS
EVERYTHING'S A CRIME WHERE NOTHING GROWS
HAD OUR COFFEE THEN WE MADE OUR RUN
FOR A BIG JET PLANE FILED IN ONE BY ONE
ON AN ISLAND WITH A MILLION TRAFFIC LIGHTS
REMEMBERING ALL THOSE QUIET NIGHTS
NOW WE'RE FINDING PLACES WHERE THE WILD CAN BE
WITH YOU AND ME

UR 048: SANCTUARY
by CRYSTAL SHIPSSS
Dizzying psychedelic songs that feel like they're being played at the bottom of a deep canyon, drenched in reverb & echo.

On “Spirit Breeze,” Dylan Gilbert starts from folk roots, but gradually adorns his songs with rich textural elements.
