about

"Purposely quasi-psychedelic images reflecting the otherworldliness of the music."

lyrics

If it was up to me
But it’s not
I would wipe away the stains
Wash them all until they’re not
If you find
You have the need
To medicate
Take a glass of something
Sweet
It’ll mask the taste you hate

Slip into the shade
And you’ll be comfortable
‘Till you find that there is certain danger

If you turned out to be
An astronaut
Would you keep the capsule
Clean
Antiseptic to a fault
And use your mind,
It can be thought as an escape
Through the hatch
You may return
After walking in
Free space

Slip into the shade
And you’ll be comfortable
Till’ you feel
uneasy
‘cause we’re strangers

Stranger
Come along with me
In my company
Come along with me
Yeah

If it was up to me
But it’s not
Take an axe to all the trees
Strip them all of any bark
Cut the wood in bits to make a special chair
You can sit under the trees
And imagine they’re still there

Sit down in the shade
And you’ll be comfortable
‘Till you find
That there is certain danger
