Tumbleweed 06:54
everything that you could want, its all in your mind. everything that you desire, dissolves in your mind. desperate souls, silent roads, on. everything that you could want, its all in your mind. everything that you desire, dissolves in your mind. desperate souls, silent roads, on. I cant wait for morning. welcome to the edge. this is where we're living. wide open spaces in time. kiss him on the lips. fire shoots from your fingertips but i cant believe in, their lies.

Autumn Reds 06:34
I stretch my arms over autumn reds, reaching for weak vessels of someone's ash, can I talk to you about the distant past, can I talk to you about anything? You're a figure that walks through doors taking sips of liquor and god damn coors. Thumming through you with wet finger nails . Like I reach in the dark between old film reels. You buried your feet underground, but they're not roots, and you won't grow. You have paper wings held with wire, but they're not feathers, and you can't fly on your own.

Perfect Dark 06:50
Long walk, tall bully At fulmoore street Caged in, start moving Look down at my feet Kids start laughing pulling me out of my dream Turn the corner, find the dial, knees bounce on the seat Picked you flowers, we would talk for hours in the dark, with only basement noises Of the older people chattering like starlings through the night Big ideas would hold my eye, like a crystal ball Fighting sleep felt like the battle, that would win them all Hold the gun while we run through the citadel Find the door, kill the guy with the eyes made of perfect dark He's got my innocence

If you like I can close my eyes If you like I can lose my mind I'm a kid with a broken shrine Seeing demons in everything that climbs, doesn't matter If you like I can close my eyes If you like I can close my eyes I'm a child with a mind that flies You're a child crawling in this cage I've built, doesn't matter If you like I can fix that shrine Live inside someone else's lies A cave a candle and your pupils Dancing like cattails and katydids I’m sober and, I’m sorry for it Made your members think of you and think of me There's a cult in the streets thinking of us They want to string us up to pikes so we can see I don’t like the people in the streets Thinking about you or thinking about me If you like I can close my eyes If you like I can lose my mind Now I'm strung up against this pike All I see are the ones we've left behind, doesn't matter If you like I can close my eyes If you like I can close my mind

Relativity 07:15
I found you in a spiral You didn't seem surprised at all of anything The wreckage of your brain, so typical I found you on that staircase Oh your mind would race and race So beautiful, I'd lie upon your bed to see that place And I only ever thought that you'd awaken me from my silly dream of living a legacy What I didn't know, I know A legacy is cheap, and leaves behind the people in the streets
7.
Worm 08:52
I'm breaking oath, so what good was it anyway Cause my mind is weak, and really, what else can I say I'm not giving in, I just like the slow decay And even when the children play, their games are a little strange I'm losing interest as the hierarchy is met Meditation dangles like a firefly I can't catch And you're the one I want, the one I can't remember Choppy audio tracks reveal your brain preserved in amber
8.
I keep your high noon prophet in the back of my throat I’ve been breaking my back shoving my words down I know you have this gaping cut you got wrapped in rags from the cupboard I keep your midnight prophet on the tip of my tongue can I have you dressed in memories by the lake? I think I’d make it one more day, if I could The damn broke and soon we'll all meet your new soaking wet god I could've built a boat if I had some better drugs Had you always known I couldn’t swim so well? is that why you looked to me as if that's why the levy fell? There's benefits in the night other than your pretty face They circle round me like Dogs on any other day- there’s voices beckoning from the cabaret Did you find your savior in old friends? does the maritime knot break or bend?

Whether you want cerebral psychedelic, body moving rhythm, or hard-hitting riffs White Shape caters to your every need. The record is an anthem to their collective vision, spreading out to showcase the various talents and specialties of each member of the band. The group comes together like an ideological musical commune with no one aspect of the record overshadowing the other. With a masterful line up of tracks you are taken on a journey that is crafted to heighten your awareness with the ever-expanding world around you. Be prepared for melodic vocals that pair perfectly with a soundtrack to White Shape’s otherworldly psychic-landscape matching the over all theme of existential discovery. From the hard and grunge riddled “Tumbleweed” to the beautiful and ethereal “Relativity”, Perfect Dark comes through with a welcoming embrace that will leave you changed, enhanced, diverted, and content on knowing that the next trip can start by simply hitting the play button and starting the whole thing all over again.
