lyrics

Purple fuzz, billowing over burnt orange houses
Fire engines engines emptying their faucets
Shame and longing up in smoke
I met a kid who said he loved to well another kid
But he could never admit it
Tell an old soul who it was
I closed my mind
Opened my heart and ears to listen
Thought of a savior, of a warrior
The brutal honesty of life

I hold my own
And try to go
Where a wise man said
To go

All there was, is all there is and there will ever be
It's just the sum of what we'll never see
Or the inverse of what's lost
I see it there, in a reflection, in your iris
In the vowels formed by your reddish lips
When you left and you arrived
It's purple fuzz, endless distortion through the trenches
Harmony teeming out from churches
The echoes of endless love

I ride the wave
And try to say
What a wise man said
I ride the wave
And try to say
What a wise man said
I ride the wave
And try to say
What a wise man said
To say

Friend Columbus, Ohio

Weird and wonderful music.

Life form got a message stuck in its head

Its mother and its father never knew he had a friend like that
Not in a song
