Is this the One?
03:21
|
|||
Now I'm alive, I don't know what that means
A treacherous path or a beautiful dream?
An egg ripe to hatch or a slate to scrub clean? Oh,
It must be a dream.
Am I the one and is this the only
Intertwined and always so lonely, oh
A series of steps that will echo for ages
Or ghosts behind curtains on cold, cosmic stages?
A mind that's so chemical, stumbling through dazes,
Has my mind grown foggy, or are these things mazes?
Is this the one and am I the only
Intertwined and ever so lonely, oh
The traffic below buzzes like bees,
The bodies between flea bitten and mean.
Am I the one and is this the only?
Intertwined, why am I so lonely?

All I want to do is bring her home
Getting tired of mourning, wandering round and evening alcohol
All I want to do is set us free
The scars and tattoos on her face are beacons if I've ever seen
Oh, dusty moths and golden butterflies
Are opening their eyes
Oh, it's all bubbling up and rising like a loaf of bread inside
The crystals showed me something full of magic
Now every ray of light, it scatters into rainbows
Glittering wrapped around the tragic
Oh, dusty moths and golden butterflies
Are fluttering in your eyes
Oh, it is bubbling up and rising like a red balloon
Inside the corners of your mind
All I want to do is bring her home
There's no reason for both of us to stay long
Oh, golden moths and dusty butterflies
Are shining in your eyes
It's all bubbling up and rising like a red balloon inside

There is a pebble in my shoe,
Is it time to fix that?
I felt my skin burn pink and red,
Is it time to go inside and draw the curtains?
Never mind, never mind
I have stung by bees
All I want is in the flowers
I don't know what I'm doing
But something really needs to change
Never mind, never mind
I don't mind, never mind
I don't mind, I know I will be alright
I'm in the grass staring at the sky
I don't really want to go inside

Dark Inside
02:37
|
|||
Don't commit me to memory
I'm just passing through
Don't commit to follow,
Don't commit to hollow out a place for me here
Don't hollow out a place for me here
And don't let it get too dark inside,
Don't let it get too dark
Because we could be spiders
Or we could be bees
And blood and flowers
Could be all we ever need.
We were born as strangers
Memories just out of reach
Still, you guard our footprints
Our children will be forgotten, too
So don't let it get too dark inside,
Don't let it get too dark
Because we could be spiders
Or we could be bees
And blood and flowers
Could be all we ever need.
(Glockenspiel solo)
Don't let it get too dark inside,
Don't let it get too dark.

Go Back to Sleep
02:19
|

We can't be sure
The data suggests
This is just a dream
Go back to bed
It will make sense
When you fall asleep
If love was the only thing that is real
We would collapse beneath what we feel
Or find ourselves numb and half asleep
It will make sense when you
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep
We can't recall
The data insists
This is just a dream
Or maybe a test
It will make sense,
Please go back to sleep
Go back to sleep
Sleep

Quarantine Song
01:58
|
|||
If you're staying home,
Hold tight to your soul
Because the monsters in the closet
Oh man, their teeth can hold
When they bite, I feel the bleeding
But it's all in my head,
And the monsters that surround us,
Man, I wish that they were dead
Oh, I've been dreaming for a while
But I never fell asleep
Oh, if it isn't in the Bible,
What gives you the right to preach?
You should probably go,
But I wish that you would stay,
We both know that I can love you from at least 6 feet away
If you think this is safety,
I don't think your mind's this shaky,
And your floors are not so slippery,
You're not hanging from the roof
All the places this will take us
Fluttering hearts and stomach aches
Is a small price to pay
If this could be our ticket through.
Oh, I've been dreaming for a while
But I never fell asleep
Oh, if it isn't in the Bible,
What gives you the right to preach?
If you think that this is safety,
I don't think your mind's this shaky,
And your floor is not so slippery
You're not hanging from the roof
If you think that this is safety,
I don't think your mind's this shaky, shakey.

Strawberries
02:35
|
|||
We are strawberries, don't try to cut me short
We are small in the wild,
But our seeds will travel
Farther than ever before
The light in the window will guide me safely home
We are strawberries don't try to cut me down
And we can shoot down our roots
In this quiet little seaside town
And with the water in the wind and the salt in our hair,
We will climb fences and one day
We will see the wilds out there
The light in the window will guide me safely home
But tart strawberries stir me up, I fly back to the woods
We are strawberries, twisted in the shade
Wrapped up in earth, soft, dark, and sweet
With the smell of decay
I have been warned if my anchor doesn't take,
I'll drift away
But I am secure in the tangle and the rain
Of this warm summer day
The light in the window will guide me safely home
But tart strawberries tie me up, I fly back to the woods
(My cat meows softly)

Rosemary
02:08
|
|||
I love the child inside me,
I can't give her what she needs
The witch inside my mind
Will be my mind until I can see
Rosemary in the kitchen
Smells so lovely as it dries
The cat smells something sinister,
I will not close my eyes
I create the evil that I see
And when I wake up screaming
In the daylight, that's just me
I create the evil that I see
I create the evil that I see
I remember piano keys and knives
I'm hanging from the balcony
And end scene with a smile
The day that you came walking through the door
It could've been much better than
This spilled milk on the kitchen floor
So be in the world but not of it,
Be in the world but not of it,
Because I create the evil that I see
And when I wake up screaming
In the daylight, that's just me
I create the evil that I see
Set the sailor in your body free,
We can roam around and do anything we please
Set the spirits in our bodies free
We can run around and do exactly as we please
We can run around and do exactly as we please

Hold Me Down
02:50
|
|||
Come on baby, why you gotta hold me down?
I've been upright, oversight
Staying up all night screaming into mirrors
It's alright, it's alright to not be sure
I've been standing at the cliff side
Waiting for a late night fast track to heaven
It's alright, why you gotta hold me down?
Oh baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Oh baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Oh baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Why do you have to hold me down?
I've been rolling in the dirt, and singing in the mud
That my mind is so fucked up,
While I'm sipping on sunshine
And seeds are rolling in their graves
We'll be shivering in the Winter
But dear, you're still an angel,
Think you've gotta see heaven from a different angle,
Let the light shine deeper, let the waters rise
So baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Come on baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Oh baby, why you gotta hold me down?
There's a garden in the battle, burn the rest
The worms have fled and we are blessed
With a harvest, a reckoning
She's softly, sweetly beckoning,
"Come on baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Come on baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Come on baby, why you gotta hold me down?
Come on baby, why you gotta hold me down?"

Oh, I
02:05
|
|||
Oh, I stepped to the forest
Dream it up, and bring it into form
Oh, I
Oh, I've been leaving traces,
I don't want to bother anymore
Oh, I
Oh, I, Oh I, Oh, I, Oh I
Oh, I have many faces through the day
But none of them are real!
Oh, I step in my mind to wander
Hoping to make sense of what is real,
Oh, I
Oh, I, Oh I, Oh, I, Oh I
Oh, I'm so sick of aching
For the sun that's breaking through the clouds
Swaying with the trees
And buzzing with the bees,
I want to jump into the lake.
Oh, I, Oh I, Oh, I, Oh I

Angel on Over Albany, New York
I recently changed my name from Aster and the Meteors to Angel on Over because I'm creating this music by
myself.
Thank you for listening! This music has been recorded on my phone, so I'm hoping I can have it professionally recorded someday.
