I’ve been poking around a blog called MOOVMNT.com lately that my buddy Fundament showed me awhile back, and I stumbled across some music from an artist named Lorn; this shit is fantastic. I had a whole bunch of nebulous thoughts drifting around while listening through his tracks, and decided I’d just throw it all together and see how it blended. For more from Lorn and the rest of the talented guys he runs with, check out the Brainfeeder site and show love!
Anyways, here’s what I came up with, I hope a few of you enjoy it:
It’s just the sky’s fallin’ down an I can’t see the stars/
Dreamin’ hard, I’m fallin’ on my face, an yea, it’s leavin’ scars/
Breathin’, hyper-ventilated, veins runnin’ thick/
I will always chase that little bit that made ya body fit/
So the, fallin’ sensation I’m gettin’ settles down/
But I’m livin’ in a life, heavy, with a thousand pounds/
Get it, I put it on my back, I’ll drag it outta town/
But don’t ask me why I never smile when you come around/
Shit, I got a lot of things I’m chasin’ in the wind/
The end it’s comin’ in, but I forget where I begin/
So I, settle up, and put my debts out on the table/
Drug-ridden, with an angel, body poppin’ out of labels/
She smiles at me and I take it in, soft as sin/
Open-mouth, gaspin’ out, sweaty arms I’m layin’ in/
Fall asleep, wake up in a daze, piff before I leave/
See I gotta get away, because this shit is what I breathe/
It’s only little pieces that I’m missin’ in the night/
I’m thinkin’ of my cousin’s loss, an wishin’ I could make it right/
I never asked for nothin’, and I hold all that I am/
Tough, hardened in my heart, but still a weaker man than him/
See my face for what it’s worth, not what you make it out to be/
I’m trippin’ on it hard, I feel like flyin’ from a balcony/
I’m out to sea, floatin’, on an ocean made of sand/
Skin burnin’ in the sun, left a million miles from land-/
Scapes of memories, mountains of the lost, forgotten-/
Out-of-breath-smiles, hand-holdin’ in the dark compartment/
That I keep it, ask me but I’m probably sleepin’ now/
I’m not driftin’ off for long, but maybe for a little while/
See you, when I return, in the shadow of a cherry moon/
Sunset strikin’ red colours, sinkin’ very soon/
…on horizons purple streaks an orange tips/
We’ll sit and fade the day away, a smile on our lips/
I Promise…/
No chorus, just straight through, hope you guys like it.
