hello my dear,
would you like to make a plan
to goto the beach
and sit out on the sand?
let it let it sift
through the fingers of our hands
til it burns our skin
and we dig to find the damp.
we’d sit watch the kids
make up games to play
worked up to a fever pitch
to while away the days.
we could sleep and dream of stones
at the bottom of the lake
well safe safe beneath
the washing of the waves
=
don’t fret that stones
fear the ending of the earth:
a last breath the ghost
of a sentimental urge;
that love left no trace
an inconsequential hurt
too plain too close
too small to be observed.
a flat expanse
not worked by any hand
no path no path
a monument of land
and no map no photograph
can illustrate the plan
don’t fret worry is
that crutch that makes a man
a denier
a denier
a denier.

The album is very good overall, hate to pick just one song, could easily have gone with Float The Flood or Jolt The Amplifier. For the uninitiated, their music seems influenced by Sleater/Kinney and Throwing Muses. Having seen them live recently, got a glimpse of some new material, definitely looking forward to more from them in the years to come :) pepc72
