Rotor
03:58
|
|
||
Climbing up a ladder you've been down before
A little bit unsteady, little bit unsure
A palindrome of patterns in the sky
As fire reignites behind your eyes
Splinters tracing down your hands
You tear at them but they just grow right back again
You finally see a vision to the top
Oh - you hold on to the feeling, in the hopes it never stops
(Chorus)
Splitting to the surface, spinning like a rotor
Take you by the throat, honey; panic taking over
Wash away yourself in the passing of the water
Pour another drink for your mother and your father
Something tells you you've been here before
You don't know when or how, but it's getting harder to ignore
You know when you wanna give in
Your hands are tired of climbing, but you can't stop here
(Chorus)
Splitting to the surface, spinning like a rotor
Take you by the throat, honey; panic taking over
Wash away yourself in the passing of the water
Pour another drink for your mother and your father
Climbing up a ladder you've been down before
A little bit unsteady, little bit unsure
A palindrome of patterns in the sky
As fire reignites behind your eyes

Etonia
02:39
|
|

If I could reach the pebbled shore
Lightness and the viscerals,
Etonia,
Etonia
No way about it...
Could I live without?
I see what you mean,
It's not just a dream
The thorns are cruel, and dig in deep
Letting go and breathing out,
To welcome in my greatest fear
Sing me memories, we were kids
Sing me demons from my past
Sing me comfort from your skin
And cast me into knowing
With heart unbound,
Etonia

Summer Nights
01:35
|
|
||
Walking softly, barefoot on warm pavement
Michael waits ahead while sunlight fades
I watch sea birds sail on through salt spray while
Pavement turns to sand beneath my feet
Walking back now, the moon will light our way, home
I'll remember, how you came to me

Battle of the Ego
04:26
|
|
||
The silence - deafening the words upon my tongue
I try to see the damage I have done
And as the pounding of the blood inside my ears
Subsides, I hope there's nothing left to hear
CHORUS:
No it doesn't have to be a battle of the ego,
Listen to the music,
What is there to lose (is there to lose?)
I've seen a lot of men tangle in their pride
And talk themselves a knot they can't untie
Oh you know your temper is a temporary gain
The conflict and your worth are not the same
Put these guns aside,
Take a minute to see clearly through your eyes
CHORUS:
No it doesn't have to be a battle of the ego
Listen to the music,
What is there to lose (is there to lose?)
CHORUS:
No it doesn't have to be a battle of the ego
Listen to the music,
What is there to lose (is there to lose?)
Listen to the music,
What is there to lose, is there to lose, is there to lose?

Alec Hutson Boston, Massachusetts
Alec Hutson makes thinking music. Wistful by the open window music. Sweating-hard-from-singing-your-little-heart-out-on-the- interstate music. WBUR ARTery calls it “a groovy indie sound that’s both catchy and contemplative”. Hutson has proven time-and-again to possess that rarest of gifts: a talent for creating music of the moment, whatever that moment may be. ... more
