I’m seeing the old signs in my dreams I’m seeing those signs in my dreams You can’t get out Who can get out? The mirror and prejudice The lists, the list of everything It’s got you on a string You can’t get out Bats sleeping right-side up Unmarked cars driving the roads The asses of human power The wind in the heartland I’m seeing the old signs in my dreams I’m seeing those signs in my dreams You can’t get out Who can get out? Bat’s sleeping right-side up That’s wrong! Unmarked cars driving the roads Auto-fellatio portends destruction Death and destruction The kids with two sets of eyes Looking both ways at one time Dance for transgression The drums in the right hands I’m seeing the old signs in my dreams I’m seeing those signs in my dreams You can’t get out Who can get out?

Red flies Red time Fed time Shed time Red flies Dark shine Red flies Pretty boys That’s why we get rid of it (Red time) Because it has fleas (Fed time) That’s why we get rid of things It is Familiar I have heard that phrase before It is familiar It is familiar I have heard that phrase before
3.
I have heard that phrase before It is familiar It is familiar I have heard that phrase before Record-setting numbers A bloody green new future It is familiar It is familiar I’ve mistook that face before It is familiar It is familiar I’ve mistook that face before The way he waltzes ‘cross the floor With no sense of shame at all People just can’t look away But hypocrites will suffer more It is familial It is familial
4.
I’ve got science by my side My heart beats in perfect time With the red blink of friendly lights Rerecord the monster trucks inside Erasing the high lows No more cruel kid confide
5.
Well I know how to sing and I know how to walk But I wonder what I’ll say On the day I learn to talk? Well you’re going through something I can see it in your face I think I’m feeling the same thing But I can’t commiserate And I think now it’s too late There may come a time in life When you’ve got to say the word When you’re questioned by a loved one And you don’t know what to tell them That’s failure you don’t come back from Now you can do your dance That leaves me so impressed I conveniently forget What I wanted to confess That’s just why I love you best

(Panning for precious metals) Helicopter (Panning the track) The mid-June sun The ice-cream truck Helicopter above Watch for our Children! Slow!

Thank you for watching over me The two lamps in my bedroom (Double life, double life I’ll see you in my double life You can try and try To make them coincide But as long as you hide And think that it defines You will never be surprised Within your double life) Thank you lamps for watching over me I don’t remember the sound of the city I need you to remember me This is so embarrassing (Double life, double life I’ll see you in my double life You can be okay With the kids today You can go outside If you don’t go outside You will never be surprised Within your double life) 80 years ago I was nothing Now I’m a washcloth covered in vaseline taking water from lamps I am only 20, everyday I grow longer fingernails (Double life, double life I’ll see you in my double life) Thank you lamps for watching over me Taking shelter from lamps Thank you lamps for watching over me There’s nothing there for you anymore There’s nothing

about

Music video for Lamp Watch/Double Life here:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mbwqJONFyU&t=159s

the heart of the cradle side of this split is a collaboration and these tracks wouldn't exist without ani, lily, andrea and park . a deep and humble bow to them all!
we made this music over the course of a couple months of weekly late-night sessions at dre's studio- i'd show up with a tape loop or cell phone recording, dre'd have the kit mic'd already, and we'd go from there. a few nights ani or lily were ending their own sessions as I arrived and they'd stay and play. park's voice leaking in from their side of the split onto a few songs completed it in the same way it started: collage style.
it was late summer 2020, a time when things felt pulled in every direction at once, and the finite but consistant practice of going in once a week and making this spontaneous music with friends short and long distance was real spirit nourishment in that strange moment. thankuthankuthanku. love you all so much.
