lyrics
from the static rise
i'm blown away
all these drafted lives
remain enemies
we're all sitting here
sun is sinking in the sky
i know there's nothing here
if there is a place
take the time to stay awhile
i know
in your weaknees all you need is green
when you're sleepless green is all you need
we're still sitting here
sinking sun beneath the sky
i know there's nothing here
if there is a place take the time to stay awhile
i know
in your weaknees all you need is green
when you're sleepless green is all you need
dance, monkey, dance
all we are is kids kicking the air
all we are is all in all
i'm blown away
all these drafted lives
remain enemies
we're all sitting here
sun is sinking in the sky
i know there's nothing here
if there is a place
take the time to stay awhile
i know
in your weaknees all you need is green
when you're sleepless green is all you need
we're still sitting here
sinking sun beneath the sky
i know there's nothing here
if there is a place take the time to stay awhile
i know
in your weaknees all you need is green
when you're sleepless green is all you need
dance, monkey, dance
all we are is kids kicking the air
all we are is all in all

"keep it in the dark" feels like summer storm music: it swirls and comes in torrents but it cools your skin with burst of calm. i don't know how they balance the dichotomy so easily, but they do. the pitterpatter of accidentals in "fools"'s guitar line, the gentle unison vocals of "we collide", the churning sea of "see what happens"- it all melds into something as rousing as it is calming.
