You made it, but now you’ve gotta calibrate it
The thing is, it only lives at night
The purpose, to terrorise the unawakened
Your hear it and now you’ve gotta pacify it
A howl into the dark of night
The sound of something grim awakening
Gone insane, here we are, it’s alive
Lunacies, course the veins, here we are
You made it, but now you’ve gotta calibrate it
Until then, it’s hungry for the night
And nothing can save you from its one desire
You feel it, the tremor of a distant memory
That this is not the first time
And now it’s turning on its own creators
Gone insane, here we are, it’s alive
Who’s to blame, this time, here we are
Gone insane, here we are, it’s alive
Who’s to blame, this time, here we are

Long days become nights
With each step, a new fight
But you can climb to the moon
When these joys surround you
Long nights become days
Surviving in new ways
And you can feel up and down
But you’ll never tire of these sounds
These times are finite
Don’t fall foul of hindsight
If we can live in the right mind
We’ll never be left behind
New words and new ways
Never fail to amaze
Generate memories
I’ll find words to hide these
These times are finite
Don’t fall foul of hindsight
If we can live in the right mind
We’ll never be left behind
Long days become nights
With each dark, a new light
Climbing to the moon
Will never work without you
These times are finite
Don’t fall foul of hindsight
If we can live in the right mind
We’ll never be left behind

Let me borrow some time, so I can twist you a tale
Fantastical feats of which to you I will regale
Of a man of few words, but an infinite charm
One of a kind, the man, a maverick, quite the card
He witnessed the planets colliding
And tethered the hole in the sky
He’s ridden the wake of Poseidon
At least he will in time
Let me borrow some time, so I can spin you a yarn
Wonderful words with which I will try to disarm
Of a man of few words, but an infinite charm
One of a pair that brought the storm before the calm
He’s illuminated
The dark side of the moon
He’s a hit in the ratings
At least he will be soon
Let me borrow some time, so I can weave you some words
The tallest of tales, from the daft to the absurd
He struggled with parting the oceans
So settled for moving waves
He harnessed perpetual motion
At least he will some day

I’m in the space between
Deep awake and wide asleep
And every move I make
Will lead to an earthquake
To dream a dream of you
It has me howling at the moon
And every way I turn
There is no time to burn
Sky’s alight
We’re infinite
Frozen time
In mind
I’m in a place up high
Near where we scorched the sky
And every time I fall
You are my wherewithal
Sky’s alight
We’re infinite
Frozen time
In mind
Sky’s alight
We’re infinite
Frozen time
In mind

Ever ready to stake a claim, it’s not yours, it’s mine
Overzealous in every game, there’s always one more time
Lay down laws you’ve never heard of before
No explanation offered, no sense needed, no cause
Stealing the show, running the line
It’s the end of the world for the seventh time
But it’s alright now
It’s what we have to do
Never ready to take the blame, it’s not me, it’s you
Overtired and over-wired, cos that’s the second clue
I’m not sure I haven’t heard this before
No point in retribution, no words heeded, no law
Stealing the show, running the line
It’s the end of the world for the seventh time
But it’s alright now
It’s what we have to do

When the days have broken, and all the birds have flown, have we passed the test of time?
When the years have fallen, and the sound of laughter gone, will we leave a lot behind?
If our voices falter, and bodies meet the ground, will our silence make a sound?
If we live forever, as echoes in the mind, it’ll all be worth the while
When our time is all but gone
We’re just shadows on the sun
And the only time is now
And nevermore
When the words are spoken, but no one understands, will we still be sound of mind?
When the night is calling, and the sun is sinking down, will we long for extra time?
If we live forever, as echoes in the mind, it’ll all be worth the while
When our time is all but gone
We’re just shadows on the sun
And the only time is now
And nevermore

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

Evil Elvis does the swamp blues. Sludgy, mushy, fantastic. 🤘
