Sojourner girl You are a celtic city Captured by the envelope Of modern society Roaming the world In something like a cirrus With a looking glass appearance Oh.. But I know you'll never love me Yeah I know you'll never love me Yeah I know you'll never love me Yeah I know you'll never love me You will never ever love me at all Sojourner girl You are proof of quantum physics You're a struggle of the mystics And pagan mysteries If the light of the world Is just beyond Venus Then what is this between us? Oh... But I know you'll never love me Yeah I know you'll never love me Yeah I know you'll never love me Yeah I know you'll never love me You will never ever love me at all Ahh Mysterious droid Lying undercover Message inside Of a one-track lover Misunderstood Dust in all the circuits Used and abused in a way That it can't tell anyone 'Cause it ain't torture Just a mess of it's kind Shot in a battle Lost and decayed Decades of chattel And everyone finds Simple delight In it's falconian mind But the happiness fades Into thorns in your hand Tweezer intelligence Foot in it's mouth Bread on the table Ship shifted shack Shells and delivered Shot in the sky Tipped to the sound Of a loving reply Making nervous memory birds Come to the surface Maple seas coming to A blood intersection Hands outstretched A love resurrection Seventy-ply Is that even something? And if loneliness died with it's friend Then this is a faction Of limitless limbo The heart on your sleeve Belongs to a servant Of chivalrous minds And merciless kinds And when you finally put the pieces together The walls came down And the servants were set free And when you finally put the pieces together The walls came down And the servant was king

about

"Sojourner Girl/Droid Puzzle" was recorded in the beginning stages of the forthcoming 12th album, Seeing Beyond The End Of The World, but strangely resembles it in no way, shape, or form, so I decided it's probably better off as it's own thing... "Pump Up Suburban Chicago" was recorded in the beginning stages of The Stone, The Blood. It was May of 2015, and Trent and I decided to check out as many CD's from the Batavia Library as we possibly could (which I believe ended up being a total of 105) with the goal of listening to all of them before they were due back. We didn't come close to reaching this goal, but after listening to an Acid House compilation, I became inspired and recorded both "Pump Up Suburban Chicago" and "Jacket Song" that night. Almost a year later, it fits pretty well with the droidy half of "Sojourner Girl/Droid Puzzle"... So I guess I'll release it too.
