lyrics
All I have left now is to shut my eyes
To the dancing dazzle of lights sent spinning.
A flash of white and I lose my breath.
Those once so bright
have now lost their colors.
The only freedom we have is we're powerless
Against the mess of planets colliding.
Forgive me for my selfishness,
But it seems like it's always stuck on my turn.
We fall sideways,
And we fall sideways.
Tilt back and to the left.
The buzz of something grinding.
My heads a mess and smoke chokes the sky
As my eyes glaze over.
This feeling is too big for human hearts.
I deepen my breath, but I'm only left gasping.
Wondering if whispers from nothingness
Can harden into meaning in my head.
We fall sideways,
And we fall sideways.
Seems absurd to clutch to words
That lives before were spent defining.
But to reevaluate and reassess
Only leads to more pondering.
We fall sideways,
And we fall sideways.
To the dancing dazzle of lights sent spinning.
A flash of white and I lose my breath.
Those once so bright
have now lost their colors.
The only freedom we have is we're powerless
Against the mess of planets colliding.
Forgive me for my selfishness,
But it seems like it's always stuck on my turn.
We fall sideways,
And we fall sideways.
Tilt back and to the left.
The buzz of something grinding.
My heads a mess and smoke chokes the sky
As my eyes glaze over.
This feeling is too big for human hearts.
I deepen my breath, but I'm only left gasping.
Wondering if whispers from nothingness
Can harden into meaning in my head.
We fall sideways,
And we fall sideways.
Seems absurd to clutch to words
That lives before were spent defining.
But to reevaluate and reassess
Only leads to more pondering.
We fall sideways,
And we fall sideways.

Becoming Unravelled
by Aaron GibsonAaron has a great voice and plays in his own way with no apologies. His songwriting is catchy and runs deep.

Aside from being outrageously prolific, Trip creates music that is lush and strongly emotive. He's a beast of a player, too!
