    Lyrics:
    Held up here, it's a silent fear
    And this space don't take my mind
    A cloudy wake, it's a young mistake
    That I'm clothed in
    I can't see when I'm filled with sleep
    It's a golden dream of mine
    But when I rise with my morning eyes
    It's all spoken
    Wait, don't drown it in the waterhole
    Taste the feeling of a fever soul
    All in all I need to get me through
    I still stir, such a war of words
    I'm a maker of my time
    A feeble man with a broken plan
    Oh I'm loathing
    Make my bed on the great unsaid
    And my meekness sends me low
    I stood fair but you still weren't there
    So you've chosen

    There is something spiritual about their music (and the videos too). spiritual. surreal. Is that what #indiemusic is all about?

    This is making me so happy. It doesn't feel like a music video, it feels like watching someone finally getting a chance to find his happy, adventurous spirit.

    This song reminds me of vacation, not the part of vacation where you are at your desired destination having fun but the car ride there. Driving at night while everyone is asleep in the car but you and you just looking out the window at the lights of the passing cars and the rain and fog. Reminds me of driving through the mountains at night too, beautiful sight. Being in the clouds. Great song

    He's dancing out of Joy. Why does it have to be more than that? We forgot how to be joyous and live in the moment. That's what this video depicts, to me.

      Daken Breland and for this depiction people who think they know better will call you shallow.

    • @seanstone8845
      @seanstone8845 9 років тому +7

      Daken Breland there's a story in the Bible of king David getting really into dancing and hopping around naked in the temple. Pure expression is awkward sometimes, but we know better.

    The way their music makes me feel is impossible to put into words.
    it makes me feel so free, so light, like Im a feather drifting through the wind.
    I honestly think bands like this should have much much more people appreciating them :)

    The walk i just went on would have made a great video like this one. Its 3am with a half moon producing just enough light to see the trail behind me. A glance of a bridge can be seen and with it's bright lights come the reflection of the water. When the music starts I couldnt resist doing the same dance move as the man used in the build up of the intro. By then I had taken a corner leaving only the high bushes in a straight line towards the yellow tinged moon. It's late april so the trees are bare and still slight amounts of snow remain. I then proceed to dance with joy cause how could one resist to a song as amazing as this?!
