    I went to see Rocky Votolato at a festival on the other side of Washington. Me and my friend found these guys outside of a motel room. We smoked with them and played hacky sack for a while then they gave us a cd and we saw them the next day at the show. I was really surprised whenever I find a band and they give me a cd they usually suck but this band is incredible.

    They're all gone, she'll rot
    Wishing as she swam
    that her own moon would be her only friend
    But he too is swimming away
    an inch more every year and...
    Almost forgot, about the other spheres here
    It took a few hundred light years
    for the bad air to clear
    up out of here
    Soon now her star will swell
    Bloat up, turn bright red
    At least that's what we said,
    might happen to it
    They're all gone, she'll begin
    as just elements again
    Tumbling in the solar winds
    In and out they'll spin
    in a different direction
    Somewhere else a similar situation
    Some random formation,
    occuring in the same equation
    Building new destruction
    "They're all gone", she said
    with soar achy fault lines
    Still following guidelines
    A stones approach
    Pushed to swirl in some other new stars light
    Soon now too that star will swell,
    releasing brand new moons,
    Dark matter and toxic fumes
    It's just a dusty interstellar saloon
    Soon now too that star will swell,
    spread out and then shrink up
    Some white dwarf will hold your cup half full
    Because elsewhere new volcanos erupt
    They're all gone, but she'll still be seen
    somewhere else melting
    Some other eyes absorbing
    A new light inside of some new star-ling
    Soon now too that light will die,
    Soon now too that light will die
    but its energy never does
    It burns in some other new blood (x3)

      paulpz2004 I'm pretty sure it's "sore* achy fault lines", but I really like the imagery of "soar" ones, i.e. flying ones. Thanks for the putting up the lyrics in any case!

    The first time I heard this I was living underneath the first floor in the mezzanine of my dormitory. My friend from the class I finished earlier introduced this song to me right before she left to take the bus. I sat there, underground, and totally absorbed everything this song was exuding: peace, solace and beauty. It's funny because at that time that was all I needed.

    these guys have a lot of potential! don't have a highly original sound yet, but this young lead singer has great tone and they know how to put songs together. ... hope they avoid the 80s synth Apple aesthetic that seems to be pervading ... be cool if they get a little anger into some of their songs ...

    I agree completely. I've always preferred this version, but that might be just cause I heard this one first. I feel like it conveys the emotion and feeling behind this song better than the album version. I love Isaac Brock, don't get me wrong, but I feel like he has a tendency to put a little too much of himself into the records he produces for other bands on his label.
