centuries of stone 02:53
lyrics
buy track
Centuries of Stone (Plester, Biddulph) On a grassy hillside Centuries of stone Danger waits forever, Unknown Stone by stone We build ourselves a wall So sit down beside me And the sound Will go all around How do you build a home Running away alone? Something outside yourself Sounding your heart out loud Why do we run around? Who are we spinning round Under the stormy skies? Why are we falling down? Who could we be right now? Why are we fading out? Ahhhhhh… Stone by stone Around, around Feel the walls go underground Then yr falling Into starry skies Stone by stone We build ourselves a wall There’s something beside you Outside yr heart and mind

why we walk 03:08
lyrics

Why We Walk (Plester, Biddulph) One step ahead, and one step behind, Something neat, complete, keep the beat and never change your mind. One step ahead and one step behind A million stepping feet, keep the heartbeat, we walk in time. Do do do do alleluiah I know the sun is coming to ya Let’s bring that rain cloud down It’s dulling my eyes. One day ahead and one day behind Walking round in circles, Through the maze and out we climb. One year ahead and one year behind Staring up through puddles, we step it up and stay alive. Do do do do alleluiah I know the sun is coming to ya Let’s bring that rain cloud down It’s dulling my eyes. Every footstep in the vein In the city through the rain Is that the life flow? Is that the life flow? One step ahead, and one step behind, Something neat, complete, keep the beat, never change your mind. One step ahead and one step behind A million stepping feet keep the heartbeat, we walk in time. Do do do do alleluiah I know the sun is coming to ya Let’s bring that rain cloud down It’s dulling my eyes. Do do do Never change your mind

Guinevere and the Blue Knight Errant (Plester, Biddulph) (a tragic, pre-king Arthurian love story) Who is this errant knight? Wandering long in the woods tonight Searching the grail Have you tried this before, have you failed? Blue hooded errant knight Gallant, he rode with the maiden bright In their hearts, they did move But their silence has sent him to prove. Sir, please tell me, what is your quest? What greater foes till you pass your test? Three blows to the head, dear And one to the heart All in the name of my Guinevere My illusion… Guinevere, the grail is in your heart Bearing nobility Ideals holding back what was meant to be Coz the blue errant knight Rode away to the quest from the light. I watched his lofty eyes On the horizon, into the skies Too noble too long, Turning my back to be strong. Guinevere, the grail is in your heart. Sir, please tell me what was your quest? What better grail could pass your test? Three blows to the head, dear, Now one to the heart All in the name of my/yr Guinevere, My/Yr illusion… mmm.... The grail was in your heart Guinevere, the grail was in your heart.

little sprouts 02:45

Little Sprouts (Plester, Biddulph) Great plans for the great plains Under hazy skies Roll them up and move them along Open the door as I realize… Get me out of the car now And walk a golden blur Slow it down to a wandering pace You’ll find the distance is the cure. It’s a long long road out there- and I might need to stay Ahhhh wah oh I’ll find a place along the way On the solid ground, leave me behind I need to breathe again, so leave me behind. I’ll wake up in the sunshine To a field of wheat Turn around, and I’ll walk to the barn Little sprouts are at my feet. It’s a long long road out there- and I might need to stay Ahhhh wah oh I’ll find a place along the way On the solid ground, leave me behind I need to breathe again, so leave me behind. Ahhhh…. Leave me behind on my farm with my little sprouts, and then go away. Leave me behind on my farm in my field of wheat, but don’t you want to stay? Ahhhh….

Hannah and I (Plester, Biddulph) we go strolling, hannah and i 
sun set in the western sky
 friends and lovers, they fall she's collecting them all,
then she'll fly 

we'll be talking, hannah and i 
connecting over eastern sky frames the world through her phone 
in the city alone
 but she'll fly
 happy black jeans girl with her spirit free find a sunny new song and sing it with me oh yes her twin stole half her heart it’s so very lucky for all of us that he left the best part
 we are living, hannah and i
 picture everything through her eye 
instragramming at tea pick the best ones and send them to me 
we are singing, hannah and i
 making up a song for a guy gusto keeping the beat coz the rhythm is all in your feet
 hannah and i happy black jeans girl In a big new world

A Lucky Patch of Sun Under the Willow (Plester, Biddulph) I’m home You’re near I found a treasure under here So deep So dear Oh little light shine over here The willow tree Will shelter me The sun we’ll see When we get there Drift through the reeds Stop by the weeds We’ll know the seeds When we get there If we row to the end of the river Will we pass on by our favorite willow tree? If we row to the end of the river What could we be? What could we see? Could we see a little farther Or any better? But we’ll stop before we get there A patch of sun, a lucky patch of sun Under the willow

Occupy a Tent (Plester, Biddulph) [say no to GMOs] Solidarity One soul living in a tent Solidarity One man on the 17th floor What we want- We are where you are We are with ya. Come on down Come down, look me in the eye Look me in the eye Come down, we can find out why Come around- We are where you are We are with ya. To eye to eye to eye To eye to eye to eye We can always Work things out one by one Do do do do do do …. Do do do do do do …. When the mass can become a machine It’s a shame anyway. When machines can become human beings We’re the same anyway. Do do do ….. we are all around Do do do ….. we are on the ground We are all around We are we are all around We are on the ground We are we are on the ground We are on We are where you are We are with ya We are all around We are we are all around We are on the ground We are we are on the ground We are on We are where you are- Utopia.

droplet 03:27

Droplet (Plester, Biddulph) so how do you know that  yr heart is in tow and yr feeling  is all what it seems? well you flow like water until yr farther than what you thought it could be Slowly, one single droplet will flow on down Gathering speed as I run over rocks In the soothing sound. Flying over the edge now I’m all alone Unexpected high, suddenly thrust in the sky At the waterfall. Feel like I’m rain again Feel like I’m rain again Eventually will I come back to these falls? Could be centuries before I can make it at all. Onward, we’re throwing down on the rocks below Thousands of droplets coming together Make the water flow. Feel like I’m rain again Feel like I’m rain again (to the ocean to the clouds back to rain I will cycle round) Maybe someday I’ll join a flash flood Or travel north and float down all snowy and cold so how do you know that  yr heart is in tow and yr feeling  is all what it seems? well you flow like water until yr farther than what you thought it could be so how do you know that yr life will unfold and yr hope will untangle yr dreams? well you flow like water until yr farther than what you thought it could be feel like i'm flowing to feel

Under the Juniper Tree (Plester, Biddulph) Walk through springtime Can we get to universe one? We are somewhere On the other side of the sun We are somewhere On an island far away We'll find something today Under the juniper tree Be what you want to be Though the desert Searching for some shade Our own little corner we made In universe two oooooo It's all we knew Until we know the price I would rather be looking through the leaves down at someone nice ahhh Climb up the juniper tree eee eee eee Be what you want to be ooo ooo ooo Twist me a happy gene ahhh Be what yr gonna be ohhh Long road back now We're on this side of the sun Reflect on the water Universe one ooo ooo Here we come ooo ooo Until we know how soon I would rather be singing our new tune gazing at the moon Come along with me Climb up the juniper tree eee eee eee Be what you want to be ooo ooo ooo Twist me a happy gene eee or ahhh Under the juniper tree [picardy 7th]

September Please Come Slow (Plester, Biddulph) If you feel, you feel, you feel, you feel yr love and energy If you feel, you feel, you feel your love And you know, you know, you see the train wreck that your life could be When you know, you know, you know, you hear where different voices go Here you are Septemba, please come slow Laze around, around, around, around, the sun is going down The summer glow still shines, September Cos it’s already in your mind So close your eyes and breathe it all in The winter’s coming and you are falling in dark and alone but still alive
