== Lyrics ==

how hoard moves
the multitudes prove
how timing peels apart us human
we would be healers, preists and teachers
but O the key turns somehow we're neither

but i was a member of set
i could be counted with the several at my back

as the self does what's less selfless
what am i to pay these bills with
and where's woman because she'll bear witness
to wounds which bloodless bleed this business

i was a member of a set
i could be counted with the ones which i collect

i was a member of a set
i could be counted with the several at my back

	I want this song to go on and on, actually. It's so short! I'd love to hear a bridge or just a breakdown with a few selected bits pulled out and on their own. The chorus is also oddly affecting.

		+	hey thanks for the comments man! yeah i'm digging on this too. it was very dashed off. i have a few things cooking, but haven't finished anything in a while so i decided to bang out a simple song. i wrote the chords in like two seconds. they lyrics came pretty quickly too once i got going. my approach to it was pretty lazy, which i think is appropriate for the feel of the song. i was mostly going for the sounds of the words and then was a little surprised to see something that seemed somewhat meaningful at the end. i picked out a drum loop, and laid down four tracks of acoustic guitar and put a bunch of pulsing modulating effects on them. then when i tried to do a synth lead i realized that i hadn't tuned the instrument, so i just did some noisy stuff, which actually sound kind of cool. vocals are triple tracked. i agree that this song could go on a bit more, and i think the ending could be stronger, it just sort of has an obligatory double chorus and then vamps through the end. sounds a bit thoughtless. probably because i didn't think much about it. i think i'll sit on this a while and then maybe come back to it.

		+	This rocks my world. Seriously, this distortion and synth stuff you've got going on this recent stuff, I'm really, really digging it. I'm a sucker for noise on top of pop and you're killing me. I assume this is at least in part about your recent change in career trajectory.
