about

The original version, recorded on a 4-track back in 2003, was used for a documentary on graffiti artist, Atlas. There were attempts to re-record this that, in my opinion, failed to meet the underlying essence. I re-approached this, again, while in somewhat of the same state as I was initially when written and recorded.

lyrics

Go slow, Michael
you know there's a street that twists with you
Don't know my flow
maybe energy could leave you jack
I've been watching which way the traffic rolls
you know
you know it's hard to say so
What's up? Dumptruck?
Do you want a piece of European mutt?
Pixie dust, well, give us some
Do you want a piece?

Heavy is the heart
that sings no song when it's all alone
Fumbling in the dark
throwing hands, throwing up, looking to pull the alarm
Heavy is the heart
that sometimes has no home
ripping dreams apart
and all of the tossing and turning
ah ha, momma
Drumsticks guitar picks
anthaeneum linoleum
the pixie dust well give us some
at times it got so hard to breathe
Day dream believer turn on your receivers
the sound through your speakers
is my dream sequel
now
oh wow
