Don’t You Cry

Darling, save me from the wailing sea
Baby, break me open and carry me
Over the mountains where the flowers bloom
Heaven help me I don’t want to go too far from you
Don’t you cry
Darling, save me from what I can’t see
Oh please break me open and carry me
Over the mountains where the red birds flew
Heaven help me I don’t want to go too far from you
Don’t you cry
Darling, save me from the wailing sea
Baby, break me open and carry me
Over the mountains toward the harvest moon
Heaven help me I don’t want to go too far from you
Don’t you cry

Lament

All these things
Too many things
They wax poetic
When all of my dreams
Wash away
Into the seas
It all comes down
With fallen leaves
All these things
Too many things
They wax poetic
When all of my dreams
And all of my days are numbered now
All of my days are numbered now

Moon Coin

Lily white
Layers of time
The silver moon coin I kept
You wore around your neck
With a copper pendent
You took it off to rest
A thread, an everlasting light
Who created a pass to take a life?
Karma comes
A friend I never saw
Til the end, dancing in the yard
Lavender lights
The longest drive
I know I never said it
I know I never did
And though we’re all connected
By an ancient grid
A thread, an everlasting light
Who created a pass to take a life?
Karma comes
A friend I never saw
Til the end, dancing in the yard
Silver moon
I need you
I know I never said it
I know I never tried
And though we’re all connected
By a velvet sky
A thread, an everlasting light
Who created a pass to take a life?
Karma comes
A friend I never saw
Til the end, dancing in the yard

Hymnal
03:57
|
|||
|
In a dream
From the river mud
She came out crawling towards me
She smelled like cinnamon vine
I felt burning fire like holy hell
All the lights and the mystic moon
Came down pouring impending doom
All these rituals and dark spells
Keep our fortunes inside ourselves
We spoke of what I can not recall
She sucked out the poison and withered away Like leaves in the fall
All night
My heart aches
All night

Juniper
04:32
|

|
Catching the lightening bugs in the backyard
Running around with their mason jars
Through the window I watched earth and moths
Underneath the quiet moon and stars
You were a bird
I found in spring
I was a song
That you couldn’t sing
It was a love
That I couldn’t keep
Fireflies fading
Butterfly wings
I became
Your juniper
As August rained
Running around at dusk in your wet clothes
On the front porch as we watched you go
Through the window I watch memories fade
Dancing around at the end of day
You were a bird
I found in spring
I was a song
That you couldn’t sing
It was a love
That I couldn’t keep
Fireflies fading
Butterfly wings
I became
Your juniper
As August rained

To the Moon and Back
03:01
|

|
Nothing in this world ever makes much
sense
I’m waiting for a sign that’s never been
When lights pass through this vacant sky
Reflecting off the cars as you say goodbye
To the moon and back
I love you
To the moon and back
I love you to the moon
To the moon and back
Darlin’, let me sing you a lullaby
Someone in this life is gonna make you cry, love you then crush all your dreams cause nothing in this world is ever what it seems
To the moon and back
I love you
To the moon and back
I love you to the moon
To the moon and back

Balancing

All my love
All my faith
All my heart
All my hate
Oh my god what have I done
Take my pain
Not my son
All my guilt
All my guilty weight
All my guilt
All my guilty ways
All my dreams
All my greed
All my soul
I’m on my knees
Oh, my fate what have I done
Take my hands
Not my son
All my guilt
All my guilty weight
All my guilt
All my guilty ways

Into the Fog
02:58
|
|||
|
As fog rolls into the sky
Underneath these branches I lie awake
I’m wide awake as I try to close my eyes
Arms out toward the sky
Underneath these branches I lie awake
I’m wide awake as I try to close my eyes
Creeping in through my veins
I carve it out, I’m scratching out your name
I’ve spelled it out a thousand times before
Now I can’t anymore
Oh, I won’t see you in the morning

Echo Roads
02:51

|
I watched her stare into her brother’s eyes
When silhouettes return back to the sky
Into the dark we go another year
Into the murky fog you disappeared
Monsters in the halls
Dragons in the walls like to hide the way they feel
Pretending they aren’t real
Oh, Jonah
Jonah, where did you go?
Your mother and your father love you so
Oh, Jonah
Jonah, step into the light
Your sister misses you tonight
Dragons in the halls
Monsters in the walls like to hide the way they feel
Pretending they aren’t real

Nightingale

Hey little girl with the red shoes on
Spinning around where the wet leaves fall
Up and down and there you are
Hey little sister where have you been?
Hey little girl with the red shoes on spinning around where the wet leaves fall
Here comes autumn there you are
Hey little sister where have you been?
I don’t wanna be the one to tell you
I don’t wanna be the one to talk
I don’t want to be the one but
There you are
Hey little girl with the red shoes on
Spinning around where the wet leaves fall
Up and down and there you are
Hey little sister where have you been?
I don’t wanna be the one to tell you
I don’t wanna be the one to talk
I don’t want to be the one but
There you are
Hey little girl with the red shoes on
Spinning around where the wet leaves fall
Here comes autumn there you are
Covered in the colors time will tell
Hidden in the lights little Nightingale
Singing to the moon and stars at night
Singing to the moon and stars at night

Along the Wind Spear
by survey channel
supported by 16 fans who also own “Hymnal”
Along the Wind Spear is a mystical journey of atmospheric melodies that float in a coat of nostalgic sheen. It is poetry via found 70's summer camp polaroids via distorted washes of detuned synths. Although not a Boards Of Canada copyist, Survey Channel is the kind of artist you want to seek out while BoC takes another ten years to come up with a follow up album.
