We Can't Turn This Around

Maybe I'll watch more television Though my eyes are fixated on nothingness Lingering in the air My heart is in my head (beating) And the raindrops on the roof Never end Sometimes when you sang I didn't listen I'm listening now But the air remains all too still The quiet that I want Is the silence that corrupts me As I hold this guitar And never touch the strings I can't turn you around I can't turn you around I can't turn this around I will throw myself Into the ocean The surf will beat this love Out of my chest Defeated by time I'll rise into the open blue to you I can't turn this around I can't turn this around I can't turn you around...

This evening feels like an unmade bed Placed in the center of an empty ring Blood on the canvas Spit in the buckets But the fighters went home Crowds had seen this before Crippled crows squawking over bread crumbs No more fighters Children of an angry god No more fighters Fighting their angry god I hear the ground with my feet I taste the air with my ears Nothing but noise No more waters flowing from the mouth No more ships sailing from the east Nothing but Noise Cardboard cities Rising up from the sand Don't hide away, sun Don't hide away, sun Torrents advancing Architects weeping Nothing but noise Melt into rivers No more fighters Nothing but noise Violently shake me I am your maraca Let me announce you I am your drum I paint by numbers My mind's not my own It's all in my fingers All that I steal It's all that you teach me Nothing but noise Inside this piano In my final breath Nothing but noise Vibrating my brain Emptying my heart Nothing but noise

about

We've been grieving the loss of David Bowie in the only way we know how: Writing and recording a couple of songs to express our personal feelings and our view of the world at large in the absence of such a beautiful artist.
