about

"If music were a drug where would it take you?" -Jeff Noon, Needle in the Groove

lyrics

CHORUS:
Sometimes I climb up that loving mound
And I ain't never coming down
Fill myself with that blissfull sound
Hi-hats raining to the ground
Feel that sense of sweet release
Of my spirit coming free
When I try to force it runs away
This thing I cannot replicate

I have this little drum I use it as a second tongue
It converts my fear of failure into the freedom to run
It calls my soul to action it's a message I must heed
It provides me with salvation in my dark moment of need
I feel it coursing through my veins I feel it pounding in my head
And without its exaltation I would long ago be dead
Its very name is movement and goddamn if I ain't moved
Will you stagnate in silence or revel in that primal groove

CHORUS

For the time has come your mind is stroked excitement builds your life is stoked
Your neurons sing like they're fired by coke a blowjob for your frontal lobes
Whiffs of ozone puffs of smoke you're drawn into those dancing strobes
Your chakras spin your karma glows the ecstacy within you grows
So crack the cannula let's start the drip-fed psalms of bliss and art
Like Moses sonic seas will part pump that rhythm into your heart
Feel your traumas vaporized by songs that crack the liquid skies
Feel the dance within you rise just like freebasin' Jesus Christ

CHORUS

I have this melody I hum it blows my pain to kingdom come
It pulls the word out of my brain and pushes them out through my lungs
Quench my thirst with acid rain and this saw wave sturm and drung
Build soft temples of hard base from all the sacred songs you've sung
For the rhythm has been my guide when the world's forsaken me and mine
It converts static into salvation and stagnant water into wine
It can sketch the troubles of my mind onto a page of crooked lines
And the bullgod has your head now baby but that's just fine
