Kansas Plains

The kids aren't saying anything
That's what the old say when they've aged
Oh yeah
They thought I was deviant and deranged
But they built a city on the Kansas plains
And yeah
You must be mad
If you think I’d champ at the bit
To go back
There’s a raging sound
Out in the universe
You can’t hear now
I guess the world it can't be saved
You know that deep down soul decay
Oh yeah
Bursting in your mind
Like a gamma ray
Everyone just looking for the biggest bang
And yeah
I'd be sad
But I know that I’ll see all my loves again
There's a raging sound
Out in the universe
You can’t hear now
There's a raging sound
Out in the universe
You can’t hear now

Ealing Broadway

I spent the mornings in Green Park
I know, it's all in the past
I met you at the tower of so much death
Even our love took its last breath
I got on the train then I flew away
You wrote to say it'd be too hard
To ever see my face again
I know that I should say I'm sorry
For a million things
But I just can't
I got on the train then I flew away
You wrote to say it'd be too hard
To ever see my face again
I know that I should say I'm sorry
For a million things
But I just can't

The Near Miss

I don’t ever dream about you
I dream about buildings
Standing up on the roof
How will it look without all the scaffolding
And when I go back in time – Detroit, 1929
The Guardian would be standing high
And the Fisher, well, what a grand design
At the Fox I might lose my mind
One day, David Whitney, I might spend the night
And then I’m back in my town
As the world crashes down
But not before they pull off
The Carbide and Carbon
And I think this is paradise
Dreaming of you wouldn’t be as nice
Frosted glass looking just like ice
On a window to another life
And there’s always another story
There’s always another story
There’s always another story
There’s always another story

Aliens

The town was filling up with lust
That’s when things get dangerous
Aliens are over us
They don’t want to hear your song
Our guests are feeling just like me
Watching you try to pick up steam
For us it just comes naturally
You've gotta work so hard at it
Now there’s no escape
They’re throwing down some shade
They’re picking at our brains – for what?
On a hot summer night
Nothing was exactly right
Cause there were saucers in the sky
And now there's no escape
The crops are figure eights
They’re picking at our brains – for what?

All Is Numbers

None of us could wait to leave the show
There was still such a long way to go
There’s no dignity in rock n’ roll
We were fighting in an unseen town
All we came to do was tear it down
A silent treatment in a sea of loud
I guess there must be a little death
Living half dreams outside of your head
But come on, now
I heard your new band the other day
I heard you say you’re going all the way
I heard your new band the other day
And yeah, I heard you’re going all the way
I heard you’re going all the way

Speeding Away to Someday
by Fleeting Joys
supported by 10 fans who also own “Future Silence”
Wow! Y'all have outdone yourselves on this one. It is pure shoegaze noise bliss. Swirling like I did in my acid days to MBV. It's retro, it's modern, it's disconnect jagged edge.

Such a wonderful collection of dreamy, atmospheric songs. The vocals are far enough away to be instrumentation, but meaningful enough to dig into.
