Wild Wilderness
03:36

I can’t tell just how deep the water flows;
Still surface but still nobody knows just how deep it goes
You’re like a winter sun over the horizon
I can’t say just how tall the mountain grows;
Still surface but still nobody knows just how deep it goes
You’re like a winter sun over the horizon
Baby, say yes; don’t second guess
I’ll be around for you; turn the grey to blue

Little Lemon is always facing
To the West she goes sailing
The waves they come crashing down,
They’re crashing, they fall
Lemon calls out the warning bell
It’s song: so long
I can see
Little Lemon was always facing
To the West she went sailing
The waves they came crashing down
They’re crashing, they fell
Lemon called out the warning
I can see
I can still see.

Young Gold
01:41
|

White-washed, stone-faced, sparkle-eyes
Short steps, regrets, sleepless nights
Time tolls the bell: sweet blue sea, salted sevens swell
Baby I can tell: eyes like knives cutting crimson spells
Bare breast, rats nest, colour-coded lies
Bottle breath, fake your death, living secret lives
Time tolls the bell: sweet blue sea, salted sevens swell
Baby I can tell: eyes like knives cutting crimson spells
You forgot just how.

Dreams of the ocean blue
Dreams of making you
Dreams of the ocean blue
The heart is just a fool
Dreams come crashing in your bed when living life inside your head
Your mind is very curious, your face is such a pretty mess
When you go with flow no one knows
No one knows
Follow your heart they say
Don’t you go and fall away
If I could turn the time to what was yours and what was mine
I’d follow my heart back down to hear the colours, see the sounds
Follow your heart they say
Don’t you go and fall away
Make your mark while the tide is high
A beating drum, a battle cry
By the time you saw it, it was already gone
It was already long gone
I’m not ready.

Lonely Ghosts
02:46
|
|||
Lovely lonely ghosts haunting heads, my breath, the chills
Sitting caged: be a brave chief
Shaking heads, shaking hands, shaking in your boots
All we are
Dust and bones
Great unknowns
Something that you can’t explain: it feels the same, its falling through infront of you
Shaking heads, shaking hands, shaking in your boots
Borrowed breaths, deepest depths in the darkest grave
All we leave when we’ve left: dots and lines on a written page
All we are
Dust and bones
Great unknowns
Always.

No Time // The Time
03:32
|
|||
Awake, lie awake. Time, got no time
Fears too much to feel: dream, forget the real
All over you. All over me
All over we: sun in the sea
Forget the wrong, it’s a swan song
Dreams carry on, turn night to dawn
We’ve got the time: we’ve got the time
Sink ships, false lips
We’ve got the time for love.

Modern Romance
02:07
|
|||
I’m going back to the city, won’t you come with me?
We’ll go riding around on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays; wouldn’t it be nice?
Why is it a matter-of-fact that I can’t even string the words together?
To say: I’ll miss you, I want to kiss you
I’ll miss you
This Modern Romance
Caged hearts
Can’t see through.

Ending // Beginning
07:08
|
|||
Turn your head and your body follows everywhere that you look
Even those looks that you thought that wouldn’t matter: they sent out a message without warning
So put one foot in front of the other, keep on moving until you’re standing still
Put one foot in-front of the other, keep on moving until you’re standing still
Forget everything that you once knew
Stranger came before us, start anew
Start a new way forward, don't look back to what once was
Hearts and galaxies won’t stop because you want them.

Fox Opera Calgary, Alberta
Technical-Cutesy indie music about the ocean and broken hearts.
Blending together the abrasiveness of math rock with the soothing calmness of indie pop, Fox Opera creates a sonic patchwork that is both catchy and cacophonous.
