lyrics
Don’t you hold on
Unless it means life to you
‘Cause you know it means death to them
When they pass you by you’ll never see them again.
Every fire burns out
You can’t keep your wood if you want heat
You can’t keep your food if you want to eat
When they pass you by you’ll never see them again.
We all fall from the top of a mountain
Tryin’a hang on to all our closest friends (but they’re falling too)
And we can’t see the ground but we all know its coming
So who gonna hold you then?
As you skydive
Forget about your parachute
Just pull your lover close to you
‘Cause when they pass you by you’ll never see them again.
As you sink down
The rocks on your feet are permanent
The air in your tank is limited
Let life pass you by, you’ll never see it again.
We all fall from the top of a mountain
Tryin’a hang on to all our closest friends (but they’re falling too)
And we can’t see the ground but we all know its coming
So who gonna hold you?
Impermanent beings – we are and we always will be,
And we always.
Impermanent beings – we are and we always will be,
And we always.
Impermanent beings – we are and we always will be,
And we always.
Impermanent beings – we are and we always will be,
And we always.
And we always will be
And we always.
We all fall from the top of a mountain
Tryin’a hang on to all our closest friends (but they’re falling too)
And we can’t see the ground but we all know its coming
So who gonna hold you then?
We are
We are
We are
We are – and we always will be
And we always will be
And we always will be
And we always will be.

Instrumental fusion band that offers complex and satisfying tunes - largely keyboard oriented, they are a fun listen. Thanks again to Dillon. Roy Meerkamper
Aussie cosmonauts teleport their art rock to the dancefloor, expanding their spaced-out sound with elements of disco and synthpop. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 17, 2022
Pretty avant-pop with simple instrumentation and gentle bite from New York's Garcon No.1 cleverly subverts the torch song. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 13, 2020
Twitchy, effects-heavy post-punk grooves give way to psychedelic surf-rock delirium on the Toronto quartet's dreamy-yet-doomy second LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 25, 2024
