Mudpuddle
=========
You stay long after
The rain has gone
In the depression
In the ground
The collector of water
You take in the world
No life you sustain
Only the mud underneath
All it takes is a ripple
To remove the illusion
Of the reflection
Of the living world
Always the decay of filth
Under the sheen of surface
You are forced to tread
In the space between

Cabochon
========
The circles within circles
Life millions of year before
Seas weakened into shore
Organisms turned to stone
The pattern was
Spinning around
Swirling around
Cemented down
Force, press, down;
Heat. constrict
Pressurized from the weight
Mass evolves into design
See how the opalescent hue shines
See how it shines
The pattern is
Spinning around
Swirling around
It's been cemented down

Buzz Got Killed
============
He tries to drive in his lane
But never reads between the lines
He likes his days the same
But fails to question why
Buzz got killed
Buzz got killed
Buzz got killed
Walking, he starts to feel a beat
Humming in time with his feet
Although the melody's taste was sweet
He didn't look as he crossed the street
Buzz got killed
Buzz got killed
Buzz got killed
Buzz got killed
With eyes so big, still he didn't see
The runaway steam roller
The bus and piano, made three
Everyone thought that it was all over
Eyes bulging, he pushes them back in
Then he stands up and again begins
With his incessant humming nothing seeps in
If only he could see past his own skin
Buzz got killed
Buzz got killed

No Creature Feature
================
No feature
Will be shown tonight
No creature
Will come from the ocean now
No story tonight is told
Of the smart, lucky and bold
No cities destroyed
Projector unemployed
No costume
Can hide the beast inside
But volume
Can drown out their ugly sound
No teacher
Will be shown what's right
No preacher
Will be thrown to the ocean now
What's seen as an image
Has something underneath
Will the scene be taken
From right beneath your feet?

=======
We tell lies
We want blue skies
We want sweet as pie!
Present at rehearsals
For the end of the world
Satellite sees the hive
Must cover up all the lies
Therein lies the compromise
Must we always deny?
If we are to be kind
A piece of the sky
For a moment alive

Pander Bear
==========
Bear in hope
That skin will trade
Grope the tightrope
As you feel the blade
Who is this girl?
She has that special sheen
She's got that whirl
Who knows what she's seen
Who is this being
Behind the mask?
Who's really scared?
No one ever asks
Bare in hope
Of love to be made
Grope the cold pole
Until the darkness fades
A newer town
With fresh faces
Some search for life
In all the wrong places
Not that they'd
Remember the faces
Or even recognize
Their only traces
Of ever having been here at all...
Of ever having been here at all...
Of ever having been here at all...
In all candor
I must tell you, Panda
There are far too few
Who have the radiance of you
Bear alone
In a fancy disguised cage
Stand against the background
Like writing on the page
All the different people
Have come here today
To watch you move your body
In a certain way
Every single one
Is willing to pay
One last look,
Should you slip away

Icemaker
=======
The Icemaker who saved the world
Made ice for his girl
He made his own sacrifice
He gave his life makin' ice
He made ice for the world
The Icemaker who saved the world
He made a great giant fridge
And took it out to the ridge
(he) Made a polar cap
To stop that greenhouse trap
He was lazy in his former life
Except when it came to makin' ice
He made ice for the world
The Icemaker who saved the world
Made ice for his friends
The frozen delights never end
A vision hit him once or twice
He saw the answer while makin' ice
The Icemaker who saved the world
Made ice for his girl
Only wanted to make some ice
Dependent on a sacrifice
Only want to make ice
For what it's worth, he saved the Earth

The party is not over
The storm is not severe
The computer is not crashing
The house is not burning
The gun is not loaded
The roadkill is not dead
The line is not disconnected
The lover is not infected
The traffic is not jammed
The package is not damaged
The dog is not rabid
The drug is not a habit
The wait is not long
The account is not overdrawn
The sex is not prostitution
The smoke is not pollution
All's well
All's well

Fade
====
As we walk, I feel the grip of your hand
A breeze takes along the cool air
The sunlight slips from the end of land
Still there's something more here
Listen, as the sound decays
Even the most vibrant things will fade
Over the water comes a beautiful strain
It attaches inside and becomes ingrained
A beauty so powerful, it causes pain
Sound so true, how can it wane?
The day is at its close
As for tomorrow, it never knows
Take in the beauty of the rose
All you can before it goes
Listen, as the sound decays
Even the most vibrant things will fade
Time to travel the rest of the road
But, with two together, there's more shade
Even when we feel the weight of the load
Still the glow on the inside is what should never fade...

Wide-Eyed Ypsilanti, Michigan
Formed in the beginning of 2001, Wide-Eyed is Tina Lambright and Patrick Pyne. Despite being a duo, they rotated instruments for recordings to make full, band-oriented songs of varying sounds and styles. Their music can be generally described as experimental pop, or psychedelic rock, but avoiding cliches of any genre. Serious, funny, abstract or direct, despite the dressing, enjoyment is the focus ... more
