lyrics

The house looks different today
The floors are swept and shining
And soft light spills out yellow
Across the carpeting

The things now living inside
Are not things of my designing
They glow golden
With no sign of darkening

They are rising
Unfathomably bright and kind
Through the halls of an empty mind

There are no traces of smoke
Or flaming faces in the chimney
No more bodies
Nor memory of fire

The gyroscopes are spinning upstairs
And soft machines are singing in me
Ancient voices
Growing in their gleaming wire

Soft as starlight
And bright enough to make one blind
Round and round the wheels wind

I am a stranger
The bed is cold and clean and I am lost inside
In the hole where all the blankets hide

The house looks different today
The floors are swept and shining
And things with endless wings
Play up and down the walls

And when I look up I can see
The architecture realigning
To protect me
When the ceiling falls

Pale People Missoula, montana

Missoula, MT’s worst-kept secret.
An eccentric piano-rock quartet with a varied oeuvre, from soft confessionals to howling rants about the lonely and insane.
Better than sex. Cheaper than therapy.
