lyrics

Over and away,
Beyond the places where we played,
They told us of miracles and ancient creatures
Ascending to thrones we couldn’t fathom,
But there’s nothing we can’t fathom.

When I turn into a cat,
You will turn into a pigeon,
When I turn into a god,
You will turn into a figment,
On the wrinkle of a cell
In the prison of a mind
That has left us all behind,
But we won’t forget it....

I am drowning in the ocean
Where my ancestry was built
By a bottom-dwelling captain,
Who could multiply his cells,
He grew eyes and started speaking,
Grew his ears and he could see,
Puts his mouth over my head,
But he doesn’t say a thing,
Still I find that I am breathing
From the water in my lungs,
Could it be that Jacob’s ladder
Pointed in instead of up,
To the center of the Earth...

Over and away,
Beyond the places where you played,
They told you of miracles and ancient creatures
Ascending to thrones you couldn’t fathom,
But there’s nothing you can’t fathom.

(That’s the sound of the men working on the chain gang)

The Dust of Retreat
by Margot & The Nuclear So and So's

supported by 5 fans who also own “Over and Away”

This album weaves the reality of human bonding with the gentle harmonies of hope before letting us know, with a complete disregard for the dreams of the innocent, that the ending is beyond inevitable. A sick sick thing, indeed. sakdaddy

All Delighted People EP
by Sufjan Stevens

supported by 4 fans who also own “Over and Away”

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
