Nicholas Quintero Met these fantastic people, played with them, drank with them, and I can't think of anyone better. And the musicianship far outstrips most other bands I've ever heard. Favorite track: Foreign Land.

Brad Christian The lead songwriter/musician, Diego, used to perform these songs on acoustic, and I was the percussion player in his outfit. I particularly appreciate the live feel. On the whole, this record combines funny, hippy, folksy, psychedelic, and classic Diego medley-writing for an album that requires multiple listens.

GOSPEL 06:12
So far the moon will rise only to fall It'd never show it's dark side to those who fall for the sight For sore eyes see what they like, not what is right in front of them And though they ought to know illusions will show themselves to you Look into the sky See just what you like I can't fight it I can't we all fall down

Succubus 03:14
Lean in closely lend me your ear I'll tell you something that you'll never hear Lean in closely lend me your eyes Ill show you something that will awe and surprise Lend me your eyes. Lean in closely lend me your heart But i can't promise i wont smash it apart Lean in closely lend me your soul And ill help that light burn out of control Hand me your soul Come again my temporary friend Think of the time well spent Lean in closely lend me your bed And ill show you something that youve only read Lean in closely lend me your bones And my flesh will cover wounds that you'll never show Lend me your bones There Comes a time In every man's life When he has to choose A beautiful wife She'll powder her nose And iron your clothes And never have anything less to say Than nice

Foreign Land 02:45
The future's not yet to show What I thought it might Become when I was younger Thought I might settle down Thought I might leave this town Thought I might pack my bags See a foreign land When I was young I had consumed the burning bush And when I drank from it The bottle drank from me I fell into a state Of unquenchable lust And in the morning Could not cure my apathy I won't fall into another State of mind tranquility Or so it read in a letter Sent to and signed by me I'd been on my feet for days Searching this town from place to place I won't fall into another State of altered reality Or so, so it read

Seasons Song 07:03
Fall is here and summers gone and time is moving on and on and Won't have to wait so long Faster every year moves on I close my eyes tomorrow's gone I Won't have to wait so long Time isn't what it used to be (time isn't what it used to be) Time isn't what it used to be (time isn't what it used to be) Time isn't what it used to be and neither are we Neither are we For far too long we don't know right from wrong For far too long God isn't what he used to be Our eyes no longer see what his can see Father what did we used to be His name has lost its magnanimity Have you seen the moles which lie beneat the ground Our bodies fertilize this tepid town Have you seen the roots beneath the apple tree How soon that they shall feed on you and me

Now You Know 06:31
Let us go, you and I, To the paradise of suns. The heat grows faster Than a candle when it runs. The price won't be so high, When you put it into perspective. Just a memory, a foggy thought, Which persists on while you live. And now you know, What you must do. Now you know what must be done. Don't you worry; Not a command, Just an ordinary rouse, Just a repetitious clue. Roll up your fingers, Till they make a tiny fist, Which is so massive, That it might fall off your wrist. The pain won't be so harsh! When it's smacked against his wine-stained jaw. Your act is nothing, But gold and divine law! And now you know, The time has come. No where to hide And there is nowhere to run. Cast off your knives, Lay down your guns; Just your sentimental rage, I'll let it our your boney cage. So now you're got What you have fought the heavens for. Can think of nothing You could envy anymore. I won't be here too long. I've business to which I must attend. But we will always be Those special kind of friends. And now you know, There is no evil. Love's simply lasting, yet rarely peaceful, And so are voices In our electric hives. But never let your conscious mind Recognize this sour lime. Run, Must Run away 'Till the moon is hid Behind the clouds Behind the sounds. That we might make In sights unseen. No pupils here, No lunar gleam. Just you and me, Just you and me. No need for weary Company Come with me, And I will show you down paths Of fresh palm fronds. Josh, short, and sharp; Roots grown so deep They'll survive most any frost. But if it melts, and The roots soak up too much, then We'll find us a new path, to stumble; To relapse and fall in before; To recover a little bit more Of what we used to call ourselves Just you and me, Just you and me.

Told me not to wait Told me not to stay For another day What else could I say Gone away for too long I find it harder to relate Gone away for too long Don't you worry little one The storm will soon be gone And now I want to find a way out To follow the line I was walking in a desert a suburban home I saw Well the fire came up and burned it to the ground

I’ve been studying alchemy I forfeit poems for bio-chemistry And I can pull Penicillin out of mold But I can’t quite turn leaden sorrow Into gold Oh woah, oh, oh oh Oh woah oh, oh oh I’ve been studying alchemy A four foot poem formed by old chemistry And I would pull Your body from your bones And shake, shake, shake the sorrow From the marrow Oh woah, oh, oh oh Oh woah, oh, oh oh Oh All these cures, you know, take time Go and open up my cabinet Even if your heart ain’t mine Oh woah, oh Take sarsaparilla and sassafras Let them steep behind an honest smile And I swear your smile will last Oh woah, oh, oh oh Oh woah, oh, oh oh I’ve been studying alchemy I forfeit poems for bio-chemistry And I can pull Penicillin out of mold But I can’t quite turn leaden sorrow Into gold
8.
A well-dressed man with malicious plans Won’t you come home, calm down Come home, calm down Well-worn smile and weathered hands Lay your arms down, calm down Come to no harm now Girl with a gun never ran from no one And she won’t now, now now Hell no not now Bang bang bang Boom boom boom And he’s gone Bang bang bang boom boom boom Click click click And she’s done

Vacant minds never need the time So while we sit beneath polaris Our intentions seem incredibly careless Vacant souls don't need all that gold We'll wine and dine and slaughter time While the rest just turns to mold To mold Spatial lines always weave through time As we resist our finest passions Our intentions seem so in fashion Palatial souls have no room to grow We'll mine for lies and collect our prize While the rest just turns to mold To mold Oh the simple pleasures iv'e found Can be measured by metered sound Thats why I had to let you down Once again Because open mouth kisses And sweet and subtle wishes Don't put food on the dishes Only plasters my heart Oh you make my veins drip While the blood caresses your lips And i'll fall down to your hips Once again

Third Wheel 09:37
You're mine, that's mine. This cannot be resolved. The end, suspend; Can't begin again. No need to crack The windows open. Can't be, any, Other way to see. Aha aha, baha ahaha Aha aha, baha ahaha Listen, my friend; I won't say this again. Too far, much more, Than I bargained for. This won't stand this Act of aggression. This was not in My well-crafted plan. Plus you know what I can do Pretty hair falls To the ground. The purple's turned back to Platinum Blonde So my breath is short, When I walk close to you. For I have seen storms pass through these parts before, And I felt them, too. No need to cry, Nor to say, "Goodbye." I'm here, don't fear, Please just hold me near! Oh my, oh Sigh! Just look at the time. Was fun, so fun, But now I must run. Aha aha, baha ahaha Aha aha, baha ahaha You'll be all right, Just look down the sights. Oh Boy, oh Joy; Fare thee well, ahoy! This won't stand, this Act of jealousy. I don't care what You had hoped of me. Plus you know what they will think. Aha aha, baha ahaha We can go No further, Without that, Soft Murmur Of movement Improvement Hard rubber On cement This journey Was earned by No on but you and I So don't worry Don't worry Fix this in a hurry Just the Third Wheel; Just the Fourth Hand on that Clock Just the Third Wheel; Just the Fourth Hand on that Clock Oh God what Has Happened How could we leave him alone The Rubber Is Rotten How large the cracks have gotten The Castle Has Fallen Foundations are shaken So go out And fix it! Won't take but a minute!
