lyrics
Delay
(music & lyrics: S.H.)
time blurs so very easily in recall
only essence remains and carries on
so these infinite chasm hours will soon seem small
the collapsed cages of memory, here then gone
in the delay...
slipping away...
here as an assembled one, frozen in the past we're from
fortress gates can never fall if lost days continue on
so in silence at the front, we plot the new direction:
imparting the chaos of our last secret emotion

Original Version
(music & lyrics: S.H.)
gone in time, not waiting for them in the shifting night
waking slowly, one by one, they look but never find
quiet boy
still, alone
in dim light of a drifting home
latter child
undermined
solemn kind on the shipwrecked isle
far away from former sanctums and the obscure ground
in the heat of clear-cast daylight shining free, out loud
all that time
on bitter wine
hollow floor screamed through the spine
all the same
the endless stage
growing edge of a circle frame

drums and bass guitar: R.N.

Vortex of Malaise
(music & lyrics: S.H.)
synthesized and analyzed ideas (influences ring)
carefully negotiate upstream (acknowledge the strain)
unlocking the secrets of the crazed (darkened thoughts again)
evenings are devoted in this way (derailed luxury)
found aesthetic wonders in the brain (tapped discovery)
rescued from the vortex of malaise (results heard and freed)
"numbed eyes used to sun cannot see everyone..."
