Cairn 02:32
And I know, I know, you're running up your mind. Nero the saint. Nero's just an emperor in your mind. It's only flame, only fire. You're running up your mind. Sit, stand, or talk. This cairn is just an anchor for your mind. And I know that I made you crawl and that's just fine. And I know when you steal it's strange and that's just fine. And I know, I know, you're running up you mind. The dauphin won't stay and Earth is just an island in your mind. And I know you never seen the grain and that's just fine. And I know what you'd do to me and that's just fine.

Some Ghost 03:39
Eye on the fault line, oh. Eye on that secret you told me. All golden and wrapped like a widow before me. On the fault line. One saint in a million. This saint is an ocean before you. And nobody wants to be under the ocean on the fault line. But the sooner you sit there: the sooner you're under the ocean. All swollen and wrapped in the water, disguise you. Under the ocean. oh!! Eye on the water. oh! Eye on the waves you despise now. Nobody bothers to look in your eyes now. Under the ocean. oh!!

You're gonna read it out your notions. You're gonna read it off the wall. I'm gonna figure out your mansion. That's all, you know you wait for Daddy Ocean. You know you wait for Daddy Ocean. Did you think about the resident "A?" That's all for Christ and saints but Daddy Ocean. You know you wait for Daddy Ocean. I'm gonna read it out your notions. I'm gonna read it off the wall. I'm gonna figure out your mansion. That's all, you know you wait for Daddy Ocean. You know you wait for Daddy Ocean.

about

Shahs Missoula, montana

Shahs hails from the odd region between Richard Thompson, piano balladry, and weirdo 70’s art-rock worship. They’ve been toiling away, playing the occasional show in the desolate, post-Manifest Destiny region of Missoula, Montana. Going for almost 20 years, Shahs has shifted from a single-minded special “idea” into a kind of apocalypse-by-committee, with songs that reference the end of all things ... more
