It’s gotten late tonight And your heads on fire, you’re hearts are full It’s gotten hard to talk And your hearts are birds, your hearts are frozen You got nothing on me now You’ve got nothing on me now It’s getting late tonight And your hearts are burning through your eyes (and time) And you’re running from the wrong town Well she can wear me down You’ve got your handcuff style to me You’ve got a pillow down my mouth You’ve got a heart that wears you down It’s gotten hard to talk Packing hot beats from a sun And I can see where you’re going now In the night where the lights turn low You’ve got your heart to run you down You’ve got a job to take you out You’ve got a heart that wears you down You’ve got a heart that wears you down

In the fog and the sleet the ice would pile then thin like a god, I could wash away your sins and defeats Move over Slip away leave room for the rain Like a Great Glacier Like a Great Glacier Like a Great, Great, gray glacier

Moon River 02:10
Moon River Wider than a mile I'm crossing you in style some day... Old Dream Maker you heart breaker Wherever you're going I'm going your way Two drifters Off to see the world there's such a lot of world to see we're after the same rainbow's end Waiting round the bend my Huckleberry friend Moon river.... and me.

When I wake up and you're not in a place I can touch you When I wake up and you're far away from me You know I love you You know I love you When I wake up and you're far away on business I'll feed myself and think of you every day You know I love you You know I love you You know I miss you You know I miss you... being around you You know I miss you... laying with you You know I miss you I miss living with you

about

This EP is dedicated to Rinny, who was in the hospital for 50 straight days last year, trapped in a great, gray glacier.

And to her husand, Pancho, who stayed by her side every day, through everything, until she slowly thawed out again.

released July 1, 2013

********************************************
Elliott Thomas played drums on "Controlled Chaos".

Feathermeal remixed the beats on "Joystick" and did some of the sequencing and loops on "Great Glacier" using an sp505, an rc20 and a nintendo ds; the glass sounds were performed by Alloy Fox.

Ashvin sang, created loops, provided iphone beats and contributed to the overall concept for "Joystick".

"Moon River" was written by Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer, and was best performed by Audrey Hepburn. Listen to her version here:

"You Know I Miss You" is about Amy, who has a job that sometimes takes her far, far away.
