Somebody get me to a hospital I think I used up too much time while I was doing the impossible in the mountains of my mind Tethered to the valleys I caught a glimpse of your reality; it seemed so far away What if my vitals organs were to fall out now and tumble to the ground? I'm coming home I was carried off by a nimbus cloud It showered thoughts and airy tones Ghostly vapors billowed over me with answers to nobody's questions Tethered to the valleys I caught a glimpse of your reality; it seemed so far away What if my vitals organs were to fall out now and tumble to the ground? I'm coming home Somebody get me to a hospital I'm coming home

Times talk They're talking at me all at once/not at once Let's walk from here all over history all at once/not at once I was just trying to keep it together but my mind's on fire; it's a noisy universe My mind's on fire! It's a noisy universe Things talk that we don't even have the words for yet all at once/not at once Do gods walk in the lacunal space? all at once/not at once I was just trying to keep it together but my mind's on fire; it's a noisy universe My mind's on fire! It's a noisy universe We made a comfortable space with geometric shapes but the transient are everywhere making noise We are we are we're all transient We are we are we are we're all transient We are we are we're all transient We are we are transient We are transient

My Medusa 03:43
I've been caught up in your catacombs alone alone alone I don't want it to feel like I've been getting in your hair; sometimes I'm scared of snake bites I try my best to step lightly shield my body from your arrows from your Gorgon gaze When you're near I go blindly 'cause when I look into your eyes it makes me turn to stone Will you ease up on this pressure now? Come on come on come on And will you answer if I call to you or will you follow in silence? I try my best to step lightly shield my body from your arrows from your Gorgon gaze When you're near I go blindly 'cause when I look into your eyes it makes me turn to stone My Medusa My Medusa When I look into your eyes it makes me turn to stone It's been awhile since I've been caught up in your maze Alone come on come on Would it relieve me if I sang a song... a song about love? I try my best to step lightly shield my body from your arrows from your Gorgon gaze When you're near I go blindly 'cause when I look into your eyes it makes me turn to stone My Medusa My Medusa When I look into your eyes it makes me turn to stone

Must've been a lover in a past life 'cause all my love's gone dry Will I see angels or devils on the day that I die? I've been playing with some hard luck lately and I don't think it's gonna end I've been searching for a cure to save me - something I can apprehend It seems I've caught myself a sickness It's like a cancer of the soul I had the hope of youth behind me but now I'm growing old Under a grey sky where the spirits meet I'll lay my guns down and I'll find my sleep No need for a grave to mark these bones of mine Well I don't think I'll be coming home this time No I don't think I'll be coming home this time I traveled miles through the darkness just to find a patch of light I've just an echo of a heartbeat but I feel it pounding in the night I've been feeling apathetic lately; it's time to catch up with my ghosts No compass but the stars above me Am I anywhere close? It's funny how I miss the water now that the well has gone dry I wish I had someone behind me who shared a teary-eyed goodbye There was no one Under a grey sky where the spirits meet I'll lay my guns down and I'll find my sleep No need for a grave to mark these bones of mine Well I don't think I'll be coming home this time No I don't think I'll be coming home this time In those arms you hold the light and sound A million miles to see it's you I've found If these legs threaten to turn around I will fall and take up with the ground And I don't sleep And I don't sleep And I don't sleep And I don't sleep

Sleepy and the Noise Ottawa, Ontario

Power trio composed of songwriter Christian Pasiak (vocals/guitar), Kira Montfort (drums) & Brian Dick (bass). Shortly after Brian joined in 2018, the debut album Fossils was laid to tape, featuring metaphor-rich songs about growing up in Canada, the fragility of memory, relationships, and health, and embracing a sense of humour & hope in what lies ahead and what's to become of us in trying times. ... more
