HIGH TO LOW

Where did it go?
A twist of fate could send us home
Go with the flow
The unknown will keep you
(Holding on)
Are you sure you need it?
(Let it go)
If you don’t believe in it
(Hold right on)
We’re on your side
(And don’t you know)
You’re riding high to low
Make this day your own
Take the ride from high to low
You’re not alone
You’re one of millions trying to
(Holding on)
Are you sure you need it?
(Let it go)
If you don’t believe in it
(Hold right on)
We’re on your side
(And don’t you know)
You’re riding high to low

FACE IN THE CROWD
02:51
|
|||
|
Tune in, drop out, get over yourself
Fall in then fall out, do it over again
You do it to yourself
Could I pick out my face in the crowd
If (when) I wear the weight of the world as a shroud
Hiding in the thing that is dragging me down
The nameless have go.
Breathe in, breathe out, do it over again
Do I, comply and when it’s over…
Can I pick out my face in the crowd
If I wear the weight of the world as a shroud
Hiding and the shadows that are dragging me down
The nameless have go.
And for what it’s worth
It won’t cost the earth
It’s a state of mind

FIGHT OR FLIGHT
04:30
|
|||
|
If you close your eyes
And climb the spire
Will you reach the heavens?
And see it all?
You’re an island now
You’re a fortress drifting higher
You will see them there
And they seem so small
So stand Tall
Rise above it all
You’re stronger than the rest, so stand tall
As you float back down
And descend the spire
On your way from heaven
You greet them all
You're much stronger now
You’re surrounded by the power
You can sleep forever
And be at one
So stand Tall
Rise above it all
You’re stronger than the rest, so stand tall
You’r at peace now you can rest, so stand tall
(And) All through the walls and the windows
And through the blinds
All will be fine
Free from the pain are you dreaming
But it feels so right
No more fight or flight (repeats)

I’d love to play, all those years ago
But summer rain has so much to show
So I lose myself in the openness
And suffering, within me none is left
I wanna lose some control
I wanna bet and lose it all
As life slips away the tighter that I hold
In lucid dreams I’m never in control
I wanna lose some control
I wanna bet and lose it all
I wanna lose some control
I wanna bet and lose it all
I wanna lose some control
I wanna bet and lose it all
I wanna lose some control
I wanna bet and lose it all

DON'T LET ME DOWN
03:20
|
|||
|
Promise your bright eyes won’t fade
Keep them warm like July
Now don’t let me down
No don’t let me down
Keep holding me through this phase
Just want to silently lie
Just Don’t let me down
Please don’t let me down
For once I’m not afraid tonight
You’re the sea that calms my waves,
I hold tight
When I know it’s your time to cry
And you no longer can hide
I won’t let you down
I hope I won’t let you down
For once I’m not afraid tonight
You’re the sea that calms my waves,
I hold tight
Promise your bright eyes won’t fade
Keep them warm like July
Now don’t let me down
No (please) don’t let me down

FINE LINE
03:52
|
|||
|
I could be anything
Better than anything you could dream
Higher than anyone
What’s it all about
I could fly anywhere
Float away like the leaves on the breeze
In drifting I am the king
What’s this all about?
What’s this all about?
Just don’t cross the fine line I’m standing on
Don’t melt this thin ice I’m walking on
Some call it synergy
But don’t call it a mystery or a dream
I’m tapping into the energy
What’s this all about?
What’s this all about?
Just don’t cross the fine line I’m standing on
Don’t melt this thin ice I’m walking on
Don’t speak those words you hear
Unspoken and insincere
Just save them for a better day

PEACE OF MIND
04:56
|
|||
|
Set it to the sea
Take the weight off me
What will be will be
Take the weight off me
It's all lost in time
It's all in the mind
For some peace of mind
Or a little time
Put it to the sea
Take the heat off me
What will be will be
Take the heat off me
It's out of our hands
and on shifting sands
For some peace of mind
Or a little time
For some peace of mind
Whatever you you aim for
Be sure that you get what you came for
You belong at this table
So be sure that you get what you came for
It's out of our hands
And on shifting sands
For some peace of mind
Or a little time
For some peace of mind
For some peace of mind

THE MORE YOU GIVE
03:56
|
|||
|
You made your bed. And you lie
Effortlessly
You hold your head up high
For all to see
Don’t waste those prayers or seek
Materially
Your glory days will come
Eventually
When’s all said and done
This life has just begun
Hold to yourself and you’ll fly
Heavenly
If truth is what you speak
Eternally
Let’s set our dreams to flight
For all to dream
Then our glory days will come
Finally
When all’s to be said
You’re given what you get
The more you give
The more you live
The less you take
The more you make
Finally
When’s all said and done
This life has just begun
The more you give
The more you live
The less you take
The more you make

RED LETTER DAY
03:55
|

|
My red letter day
Slips further away
Just ink on the some pages
Another day all the same
Though once in a while
A day full up with smiles
Turns red out of nowhere
No waiting required
It’s easy, to listen, then move on
So what are fighting for?
The days flicker away
Some get caught in the rays
And some it will pass over
To keep counting the days
If you’re carried away
It’s your red letter day
A sign you’ve stopped thinking
It’s easy, to listen, then move on
So who are you fighting?
So easy, to listen, and move on
So what are fighting for?
And those days we keep hoping for
Float around on the breeze and the tides and the universe
And those days were all living for
Can’t be counted or ordered or planned or assigned to us
Well my red letter day
Still slips further away
Still just ink on the pages
Another day just the same
Any day just the same
Could be your red letter day

SOMETHING BETTER
05:16
|
|||
|
Don't let them see you
Down and out
Don't let them hear you
Crying out
Just down and out
Just down and out
Just keep your head a -
- bove the water
And build you hopes up
to something better
Surrender to the time
There's nothing known as mind
If I'm with the earth I'll be
Free to just be me

A Trace Of Memory
by Sanguine Hum
supported by 5 fans who also own “BREAK THROUGH THE WALL”
I'm a recent Sanguine Hum convert and I can't believe it's taken me until now to discover them! This is a simply fabulous album. If you're a Steven Wilson, Anathema or even a Gentle Giant, Jellyfish or Hatfield and the North fan, get yourself a copy. Great musicianship, wonderful melodies, superb voice, top songwriting.

Joyous and exploratory. It's what makes Sanguine Hum tick. Or hum. Quite.

Now We Have Power
by Sanguine Hum
supported by 4 fans who also own “BREAK THROUGH THE WALL”
Ah, why didn't I buy this earlier? Has been on my wishlist since it's release and Bad Elephant Music's sampler and ongoing sales campaign luckily triggered the buy. Tags given are post-progressive and post-rock, but the music feels much lighter than I usually associate with those tags. Quite song-oriented, indeed. Great music, great vocals.

Shoegaze-influenced songs with the tunefulness of mid ’90s Britpop, “Noites Infinitas” channels the past in all the right ways.
