Wide Irises
Jason Allen: vocals, electric guitars, acoustic guitars, drum programming
Ben Holst: bass
Marlon Patton: drums
Were ready to get off
We tune in
We turn on
We drop out, it’s about to get interesting
Time and space
Stereo mind, I find my soul flyin’
Up, up, up and away
And we may be high
But were certainly not dry
And the Jack and J’s
Circle back to me
And when were in tune
With our supplement mood
We all exit the room
We hit the avenue with wide irises
On our way to anywhere
And all of the headlights
They start to turn into rays
I see a glow behind your face
Your body’s not your own
You want to give it away
Smile, make it worth the show
C’mon, make it worth it’s weight in gold
It’s seven hours before day
And all the angels shed their wings
They’re coming down to play
This is what it’s about
Whip it all out…shout
Put it back in
Jump back laughin’ again
Clermont lounge, velvet walls all around
Blondie crushes a can
And it disappears
And I’m with you all
If you feel like fallin’ out
Saddle up and ride when you feel the need
Where do we go now, hell, I don’t know
How ‘bout into space
We hit the avenue with wide irises
On our way to anywhere
And all of the headlights
They start to turn into rays
I see a glow behind your face
Your body’s not your own
You want to give it away
Smile, make it worth the show
C’mon, make it worth it’s weight in gold
It’s seven hours before day
And all the angels shed their wings
They’re coming down to play
And the moon hangs high
Up in a black leather sky
And a blanket of stars circles endlessly
You look from behind those misty eyes
All the way into nothing
And it draws into you
Unfolding the creases
Above the streets and you
All the angels recollect they’re wings
And vanish with no trace.
