Balance of Order

I'm falling out I've been erased dark thoughts have toppled over
I'm calling out for your embrace to help restore some order
But you are already gone tied to another place
and you have already lost your mind to the outer space
Wings catch fire and winds abate the lesson begins with horror
When and where will we escape from our label of disorder
But you are already gone tied to another place
and you have already lost your mind to the outer space
Your mind is in outer space but on the earth is where you sit and where the time doesn't exist
I'm falling out I've been erased dark thoughts have toppled over
I'm calling out for your embrace to help restore some order
The balance of order we need the balance of order restored

Fossils in Hands

Fossils in hands where have you been you fall apart as I fall asleep
We will flock in droves once they stock the shelves we will buy it all up and then we'll burn it down
And we are but fossils preserved in between layers of our uncertainty and I am a spoiled rotten dirty piece of meat and god forbid if you are hungry
I am what you wanted you are all I need we erupt like a volcano and spread like a disease
And we write in the sand all the things that we believe even though we know they aren't real
Because we are fossils hidden deep beneath under the pressure of everything
fossils in hands where have you been you fall apart as I fall in deep
I am what you wanted and you are all i need we destroy like a tornado terrify until we leave
We are fossils history in your hands
We are fossils footprints in the sand

Hold Me Darling

Hold me darling hold me once again let me back in to your loving arms of warm benevolence that perfect circumstance
I’ll come back to our home the sunsets will explode I’ll come back to my senses
Hold me darling hold me once again my love I swear I will come back I will come to dance
I’ll come back to our home the bird’s nest where we’ll keep warm I’ll come back to my senses
I’ll come back on the ice and recover all the love and the vapour in the air
I’ll come back with a bang and discover it’s dark and nobody really cares
Hold me darling hold me once again

Dear Life
02:48

|

I’ve been swimming in the air doing laps in my mind and now that things are heavy I will fall from the sky
Gaze at the earth drown in the sights I wonder where I will land I hope it will be nice
I gotta get out of my head gotta get out of my head I gotta get out of my head power down my device
Slow to a crawl find a resting place let my thoughts disappear vanish into space
Feel a sense of calm not a ripple on the lake clear the clutter from the lawn burn the pile of mistakes
I gotta get out of my head gotta get out of my head I gotta get out of my head power down my device
I must invite my dear life trade the screen for the natural light I must invite the dark night and let it in it’s about time
I don’t know anymore stories don’t sound right looking down from way up here I can see through the disguise I don’t know anymore if I can stomach all the lies looking down from way up here I can see my dear life
I don’t know anymore

Les Suetes

I descend upon the lowlands I race into your hands
I descend upon the lowlands just to crawl under your skin
I dismantle all the deadwood I push the lifeless limbs
I dismantle all of the deadwood I will fill the emptiness
I descend upon the valley I spread into your den
I descend upon the valley I will push until the end
I extend into the water salty fingers angry gales
I extend into the water far out of sight from those high hills
I fade into a stillness I fade into your lungs
I fade into the stillness of what we all become
I descend upon the valley I spread into your den
I descend upon the valley I will push until the end
These lowlands we descend upon les suetes

Into the Valley
04:02
|
|

We go stroll in the valley a vulnerable foray we’re alone in the valley as lava flows our way
Mud slides down and into the valley to insulate and seal our fate we sure got stuck down here in the valley we sure got set in our old ways
We go stroll in the valley in search of some remains we’re alone in the valley outside of our range
We settle down and into the valley the glaciers carved out our resting place we sure got stuck down here in the valley with consequences on full display
Now we’ve been found to persist in the ground now we submit and you surround us as we settle in
Into the valley

Old & Golden
02:39

Thinking of the old dust from the gravel roads it must have all settled down by now I suppose
Thinking of the old homes just off the gravel roads they must have all fallen down by now I suppose
Old and golden it’s sad how it all erodes old and golden time billows from wood stoves
Thinking of the old ruts carved in the gravel roads backed up drains now all the ditches overflow thinking of the fields where the livestock roamed they’re either barren now or they’re overgrown
Old and golden it’s sad how it all erodes old and golden time billows from wood stoves
Old and golden my how we are exposed old and golden just like a washed out road
I believe in those old familiar roads I believe in the golden gravel roads

Tyler Cameron Dartmouth, Nova Scotia
New tunes! It's been a while...too long. I suppose this was my pandemic project. It began at home recording on an ancient
version of Garageband. The majority of vocals and guitars were recorded at "The Bird's Nest" (home). Big shout-outs to Mike Ryan and Thomas Stacjer for helping me deliver this bundle of joy. Thanks for listening! I hope you like the songs.
