Bluestone EP

by Creek

TheEliteExtremophile This Australian quartet does a great job writing focused songs with complex, layered composition. Flavors of post-rock and Southern rock are evident in the guitar lines, but these songs avoid those genres’ tendencies to sprawl and meander.

Today, I wrote a list Of all the places I insist I need to go to With or without you A reincarnation A space time vacation A light speed transmission With no destination We learn something new Every single day While the doors we all open All remain the same And we're the ones to blame 'Cause we're the ones who care Walking circles with no purpose It's nowhere, but it's there
2.
Live stream Down the mountain, into your sink You sweat it out until the room stinks Of your lifelong dreams Contact Down to FaceTime, and to your cat Just when you thought you were all that In your live stream I breathe In and out, and try to see things I must be high High tides Rising up to meet with live wires Under helicopter spotlights It don't sit right I breathe In and out, and try to see things I must be high Live stream Down the tap, and into your drink You sweat it out until the room sinks On your hands and knees I breathe In and out, and dare to see Through pressures from society That beat you down until you're thinking I must be high I must be high I must be high

Mitosis 04:16
Seems like my words have gone to waste on you So, I'll just sit here while you speak Do you see that in me? Got it on his brain to keep his space from you Swat away your hand when you reach Do you see that in me? Does it break you? Do you feel that distance from me too? Guess that means I'll make an effort Let you in on where I've been Watch you roll your eyes As I roll the dice But, I know I can do better Keep it watered, and we'll grow Might be lead astray But, I'll show my face I hear your thoughts, and can relate to them The apple doesn't fall far from the tree When it lands, what will it be?

I sit Watching how the people click Over pixellations Head down Vacant faces pass the crown To future generations Create them I talk to myself They have never noticed I talk to myself I just can't go thoughtless There's no way Blank screen Starved of creativity Logged in for the feed Freed speech Projected insecurities Flood the eyes around me Will they see? I talk to myself One day they'll receive it I talk to myself Hope they can conceive it I'll wait out to see it
5.
Ready To Go 03:13
Same old dates to unfold It will take some restraint To uphold Hibernate in our cave With a hole, where mould grows On our toes All alone in the back With an itch I can't scratch I feel my feet dying to push the brake But, I'm not letting them set the pace I'm ready to go All the bridges have burned Was it worth what you earned For the cold, when you sold off your soul? No All alone in the back Guess I'll slip through the cracks I feel my feet dying to push the brake But, I'm not letting them set the pace 'Cause I'm set, ready to raise the stakes I'm ready to go I'm ready to go I'm ready to go I'm ready to go
6.
Bluestone 03:42
Bluestone Laid to hold the earth To fruit the seeds of something valuable Head home, and find your own Backbone Sturdy as the shovel Driven in the garden time has grown Head home, and find your own You have lost What you've found Lost your grip Stand your ground, oh Bluestone Fragments of the bricks All that exists as piles overflow Left home, to find my own Crossroads Wonder if the rats will see themselves Under the microscope They won't, or I don't know Yeah, I don't know... If the filth in the lens Is a kiss on the eye Wash the dirt from our hands Leave the stones where they lie Where they lie Where they lie 'Til the sun blows out the sky
