"Time Has No Place"Lyrics by Brett and Ray, Music by echolyn
A. Into Blue and Green
Tumbleweed and hawk are
Waiting for the perfect... time
To say the simplest things - like
What makes you weep
in the minutes left behind?
What makes you weep
For what you’ll never find?
Not going out, not going out
Through jealous green scenes
Not going out on lost ships
With cannon killing dreams
We’re drinking from, we’re drinking from
A cup of goodbye dying oceans
There’s nothing to say
When the blast is upon you
There’s nothing more to say
Time, it has no place
I’m flying by into blue
I’m flying by into green
Time, it has no place
I’m flying by into blue
I’m flying by into green
I’m letting go,
Falling, lost in a boiling sea
With pieces of you and me
That fade
B. The Air of Ivy Hill
It’s never been as quiet as your eyes
They finally found a way from all of this
The pain you’re in what’s willed is not a sin
Time has lost its place in all of this
They’ll be waiting but please don’t hurry
Just hold in the air of Ivy Hill
Everything’s been given
All these days that I’m reliving
Still holding in the air of Ivy Hill
They called her saint
He was famous for his mouth
Now it’s bombs away my love
There’s a hole that forms when I think of them
Time has lost its place in all of this
C. Emerald Garden
He brushes up against her
As they wait in line
Knowing nothing’s better than that moment in time
As their sidewalk meets the sunlight
They stand still in love
From the dream that they live in and are always part of
They sing under the boughs
And gaze up towards some half-hidden face
Calling from some emerald garden
Where time has no place
Lovers lying to sacrifice love under desert suns
Making promises heated boldly yet to be undone
A hundred million shimmering photons
Bounce across the waves
Calling from some emerald garden
Where time has no place
D. Forever Anymore
The stillness between exploding sounds
Light behind the peppered clouds
Smell intoxicates and fuels the end
Metal scars unblemished blue
Rains in bursts on what we knew
Resignation has no place in time
Goodbye lover, hello stillness
I ain’t gonna beat forever anymore
Find our place, abyssal plain
The quiet dogs, they howl in vain
The wreckage pays nothing for your time
Goodbye lover, hello stillness
I ain’t gonna beat forever anymore
Midnight ocean
Eighteen thousand
Swallow oil and blue green sea
Find your place in midnight oceans
You won’t know forever anymore
No no
"Water In Our Hands"Lyrics by Brett and Ray, Music by echolyn
Part I
Find your way in the song you hear
To save your heart from the fire
The melodies will lie and soothe
Walls and towers ever higher
Reaching out and leaning towards
Some love above what you feel
It’s in your verse where you belong
In your head you sing along
A sudden breath, a pulsing vein
You’re lost again
Everybody wants some time
All the time,
Can everyone be justified, yeah yeah
All the time
Caring more about being right than knowing how to care
Kill your darlings with a whisky mouth
Riling dogs inside your fight
Scares to death what we share
Grinding down the hard hanging moon
Everybody wants some time
All the time,
Can everyone be justified, no no
All the time
Part II
A river, swollen, dying
Drying canyons of earth and sky
A highway going nowhere
In the cosmos of our time
Lost in the wonder rushing
Heating pavements
Burning miles
Weightless almost reckless
Punching atoms
Of what’s undone - Gone
Hey, our horizon
Yawns for miles and miles
Through tragedies of time
With songs so disconnecting
As the tides run dry
From drinking up the sand
Lost in the wonder rushing
Heating pavements
Burning miles
Weightless almost reckless
Punching atoms
Of what’s undone - Gone
We won’t go gently from being center
To cross the outer line
We walk so easy, with heavy horses
Trampling little bits of time
Take our crooked arrow
Dip it in the marrow
Paint the dead bones
Paint the dead bones
Leave our empty barrel
Heated in a memory
Bury that time
Bury your time
We take a match and test the water
To cause a great divide
Looking sideways, reading language
Always feeding on your kind
Take our crooked arrow
Dip it in the marrow
Paint the dead bones
Paint the dead bones
Leave our empty barrel
Heated in a memory
Bury that time
Bury your time
Wake up, stillness
Feel your breathing
There nothing worth more than this
Dead-eyed smiling, holding down
You’re stirring up the bottom, clouding everything
We feel the time idle on
And stare into the noise – and all the noise it’s making
We feel the time idle on
With everything – with everything it’s taking
How much do you need before you’re safe?
We only want enough to get a taste
You shouldn’t be afraid of how we are
We only want all you have
We feel the time idle on
Your crying doesn’t matter anymore
And stare into the noise - and all the noise it’s making
We feel the time idle on
The struggle isn’t worth it anymore
With everything - with everything it’s taking
Your fuck-ups follow us until we’re dead
We’re seen in the same light my friend
We only want enough to get a taste
We shouldn’t be afraid
Steal away
Nothing comes easy
Pull the blinds
Bathing in night
You hear the hounds
Unsettled and uneasy
They come around
Bathing in night song
Part III
Had three words that would have changed everything
Lost them to a rerun killing time
Mark the skin to remember how it feels
This is how we break
Can’t deny the weight when the hook is set
Easy to be numb
Want to be someone, only we forget
We burnt bright for the colors, and for what
Lost in empty words, fighting off the blur
We’re not ready yet
Find your way
Quiet holes of red and black
Time never cares
Fervent heads wear stupid hats
Time never cares
The button bombs and righteous mobs
Follow their gods
It all comes back again
This is how it ends
Hanging on a fence dying like a vine
Stretching for the sun
Someone else has one
Gotta make it mine
We burnt bright for the colors, and for what?
Hanging on a word
Fucking on we blur
What a waste of time
Find your way
Perfect fields
All the right bones
Find your way home
Part IV
Talking on mountains your loud megaphone whines
Making the waves of the pleads that will rise
Is there something left
Or nothing in our place and time?
Who will rise – to take my time
Who will rise – oh
The unrelenting drumming coming from your face
Makes me shake, makes me run
Straight into the orbit of delirium
Edges loud and fill the room
All eyes on, all lies on
Makes me come apart
Makes me tell myself it’s only for today
There are things we are that shouldn’t be sung
Those waves drown the song in misplaced love
There are things we are that shouldn’t be sung
Those waves drown the song in misplaced love
For hate
Leave today alone
You can’t save it with your I, and I, and I
Wont you let it die
There are things we are that shouldn’t be sung
Those waves drown the song in misplaced love
For hate
Is there something left
Or nothing in our place and time?
Is there something left
Or nothing in our place and time?
Eyes, Fall, Lies, All
Part V
Find your way in the song you hear
To save your heart from the fire
Reaching out, some love above
Leaning towards, you’re lost again
Make it right, make it right
You feel time idle, stare into the noise
Your crying doesn’t matter anymore
And all the noise it’s making
You feel time idle, stare into the noise
Your crying doesn’t matter anymore
And all the noise it’s making
Your struggle isn’t worth it anymore
With everything it’s taking, with everything it’s taking, with everything it’s taking, taking it all away...
Part VI
Wake up, wake up, no heavy eyes
Everything hurts sometimes
If you know how to care
Some will say, we’re in losing our minds
Dancing waltzes in wide skirts
Your world of consequence
Spun so close to mine
Oh, holy hell, this place has crossed some infernal line
Spinning in our towers and revolutionary halls
As everyone cries and dies
At sixty-seven thousand miles per hour
We drink the same worried fate
And spill against our broken present state
It’s water in our hands
There was something you said
And it only made me cry
There was something we wanted to share
There’s never any time, no
We’re running on fire, the devil burns with loose desire
Meaning rages, spurs kick in
I’ve seen first-hand
That man is wolf to man
If you don’t understand
Then you’ve never been bitten by lover or friend
Some would say that life’s an occupation of time
Of dreams passing in dreams passing...
What was that you said?
It doesn’t matter anyway
Because every word is swallowed by earth and sky
It’s water in our hands
Can we save our ourselves
To celebrate, hold, and then send us into time?
Everything, you and I, lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
Everything, you and I, lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever
No earth and sky
