lyrics
Pass The Time
Pass the time
It’s not that I want to curl up and die
But it goes easy when it kind of flies by
Sometimes this life
Can feel like one long insomniac night
Pass the time
Bit of whisky, a little red wine
World spins soft when I’m out of my mind
Slowing down the sky
See that North Star?
If I swim out that far
I’ll get me a decent head start
Trash the heavens and I’ll break God’s heart
It’d pass the time
Come to your window, see me racing by
In my rush to be the last one alive
First to arrive
At the creature I could’ve been
Counting nothing but my dreams
And I hear your tick-tock heart
And the gears grind in mine
Nothing lasts, so how about that fresh start?
Nobody’s dead, but everybody’s got to die
Pass the time
Set my soul for the horizon line
Leave them dying for more than what I leave behind
When I cross that line
Wormfood or kingdom of the divine
I’ll know it’s been so sublime
Just to pass the time
I love these alternative versions of the 'Murmuration' songs. The stripped down instrumentation creates an intimite vibe, while the poem intertwines them into a concept-like album. As a result, this is a new album that stands out on its own and that is more than just a complement to 'Murmuration'. 'Ordinary' already was a beautiful song, yet 'Extraordinary' adds something extra for me. And because the piano intro somehow calls up some recognition. Another beautiful album by Emily Barker! rbergman
Inspired by John Carpenter’s 1974 film “Dark Star,” the beautifully moody songs on this LP present a voyage into the unknown. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 21, 2021
Kris, this is a fantastic record. I don’t normally get as excited over best of’s, but this is so well done. New versions of already excellent songs, bringing new perspectives and some excellent new songs to boot. I highly recommend it; anyone that’s thinking “naw it’s just a mash-up of existing songs”, it’s definitely not - buy it, you won’t regret it. poolo
