lyrics

Back at the start of the storyboard
We watched our breath dance as frozen thoughts
Adjust the lights and get the dialogue just right
A neverous smile super imposed

Heavy hearts, made weightless
Picture stills in motion
A time lapse scene stood bare for all to see

The frames flickered
The cogs and wheels ceased to turn
I swear when we touched the earth moved

This is no adaptation from the photographs pinned to your wall
Undeveloped polaroid memories
Bittersweet and amplified

The frames flickered
The cogs and wheels ceased to turn
I swear when we touched the earth moved

The script was rewritten all the scenes acted out
The only thing to do was notate the score
So I'll go back to act one, back to the opening shots
Back to the day the earth moved.

The real Speed of Sound in Seawater is fast... relatively. This album is the same in that it goes by too fast and you are already putting it on repeat again. :p jason hankins

Disappointment Island

Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening. Syobnaf
