about

This song was finished in mid October, 2015

lyrics

I heard that you slept through the summer
Some dreams were enough of a shock to your slumber
That you would awake, crack an eye,
For sometime have a chance to escape

But your eyelids were weighted another
Returning to dreams of a nature, I wonder
How much you expected to end up
In terrors of un-sticky tape

And you’re trying to use it to stich up a still
But it’s torn down the middle and halves come and go as they will

In absence of tossing and turning
I watched as you slept but I did without learning
Of the tumultuous love
That was making a fight from a game

We met when you woke for a moment
I thought maybe you were the missing component
But once I’d dressed for the weather
The heat never actually came

Now the sunsets are coming progressively sooner
Diminishing too, now the time left to swoon her’s the same

Oh, start to feel a fool
Oh, an unsure construal
Of trying to reach you while honoring rules

Oh, Mailroom disarray
Oh, No one knows the way
To send the right signals and read those arriving
And try to decipher towards what we are striving someday

I heard that you got up in autumn
With plenty of exits for sale finally bought’em
And the doors locked behind you
That still on the stoop left outside

You let me climb in through the window
How long should I stay? Oh please say so when you know
Cause I want to stay in my bounds
So I won’t be shown to the door

I’m just so grateful to finally be let in
I’ll take any offer and try not to wear our get thin

Plumes Boston, Massachusetts

Plumes is Ben Long (on the drums!) Tim Green and John Thorsen. Music- listening to it, learning to play it, writing more of it- has been one of few things we've taken really seriously for the last 7 years. These songs grew through many late nights and missed appointments. Our songs are all really about something. It's sincere and sometimes naked. Hope you like it ... more
