I wander into you Dream of floating in canoes drinking tea I breath into you my light and a deeper love So don't be afraid Baby don't let yourself go We're breathing of fields and dreaming of stars
2.
Open up your sound Let your body move free Strangers are touching it Why don't you let yourself be Your mind's a peaceful place 'Cause you don't love every need Like drugs or weed Open up your ears, open up your ears (beers) Come sit on the table Make yourself the rain I'm hoping that you survive Hope your alright, hope your alright, hope your alright We'll be alright
3.
Strobe lights show your eyes all the frames of matter And in the wilds of western mass, there's still someone who loves the future And with all of the ways to die why would anyone feel so different? Like you or me And every day you see the sun rise there's still someone who loves the future Until the sun starts to fall into your home (this mystery)

Downstream 03:08
All these managers want to swallow me Bodies flowing downstream in the breeze Can't defy a love pushed out of reach Stay up and feel it's disease Stay up late and pull flowers from my ears I want to walk away 'Til my body's just a sound Darn pliers won't let me go Stand around and rehearse "Let's play touch the hands of a god" I used to breath now I lost my voice I used to breath
5.
In the Hills 02:57
I saw the water stain your clothes I saw the water stain your clothes Sitting in a puddle escaping Gets so muddy sometimes You think you're all next please To throw us away from your home To grow up away from your home (to go away from your) To grow up away from your home *Come to me* I saw water stain your clothes *Come* (It started to rain) I saw the rain come of your clothes I saw the rain come of your clothes

I was such a dreamer inside outside I was such a dream living in the woods waiting 'til the night 'Cause you're outside The warmth of the sun I was such a dreamer waiting for the warm sex appeal Picking up the waste If I had a mirror, then the flood would invite us in Found a way to love Found a way that was safe from the sight of you I was such a dreamer Paralyzed, Passive Ever-mending wonder Like writing paragraphs In bars 'Cause your outside I was such a dreamer

Heart 02:22
So be kind to all your caretakers So let me plan with you this winter I can take you on a ride So much passion in your eyes For the first time I can see that this broken train has officially left the station And don't be sad that I've walked so many miles in your shoes just to break your heart So many more than you, many more than you Heart So many more than you, many more than you Heart Glad we can share this change in summertime Heart I guess you can/can't see your own reflection
8.
I'm wising that our souls will last all through time but I've got to stay for a little bit more Birds flying under every moon, after the rains and the blossoms from the trees clog the drains and I can feel the start of darkness come over me Show us stars, In the Appalachian sky Now all the thrashers have gone to sleep some of us dream And dreams give us time to learn to see in the dark And to show us stars in the Appalachian sky (I'm wishing that our souls will last)
9.
Craning 02:48
You feel/god is so fragile and you don't know why Treat yourself so badly Make yourself cry You want to question every piece of building Every little thoguht Can you answer, can you answer? Dom't you want to know? Why can't you figure out? Figure out, everyone is such it's own world How come? How long? You figured out you wouldn't care Would you like to know? I don't know where And everyday you look outside You think it's raining but really you're just crying You're just crying Somebody say something's wrong
10.
Rubber 03:02
Like a stream shimmering, your silver skin above my head you're all that I am: Deep clear water yes we are I'd like to feel the freedom now of our hearts combined and we'll make it to the night that our same hearts are breaking inside I like to see you shimmering Is that the same as love? *Is it just like?* Just like rubber You're like a dream shimmering as the stars arise You always guide me through the night and lately I can hear you say "hey" Sounds like a phone ringing miles away miles away *just like rubber*
11.
Lake 03:34
Before I take all my troubles to the lake I'm jumping in, I'm jumping in I'm jumping in, I'm jumping in *jump* Before anyone else could be the first thing that you see You cup the water in your hands Oh I won't forget I once had a say in that too I once had a say in that too And in the mirror you lock your eyes on the lover in your skin And if you didn't look I can just be your mirror and say I want to see you... Oh I once had a say in that too I once had a say in that too (I suppose what you say is true) (People) (What you say is true) (People we are. Drive us home) (Peace) (What you say is true, what you say is true)

about

The earth dog bounds through the garden throwing woodchips in the air and rustling the peas on their trellis. Voles scurry back into their holes, avoiding the earth dog's playful and dangerous jaws. Snout and paws take turns underground while rocks, roots and worms are flung across the garden, creating an empty place for water, air and more earth.

With a snort, the earth dog stops digging. It's ears are perked, it's tail is pointed and it breathes in short pants through its dirt caked snout. Another snort and earth dog leaves the hole, turns and sniffs around at a new patch of ground. It squats over an anthill and pees on the mound, making a warm muddy river of ants then runs back through the garden.

The earth dog stops again and hears the crack of a stick under your feet as you approach the garden. "Mmmmmm" said the large brown dog, standing in a bed of trampled peas. "Can you smell it?

This album is dedicated to everyone out there finding their balance and tuning in, smelling, listening, looking through the lens of the earth dog's expression of unconditional love.
