lyrics

Apparitions and I’m feeling like somebody else
Standing on the outside like I’m looking for myself
Keep my mouth shut. Am I better off?
I’ve been dying to know
Is he coming or is he a dream I can’t compel?

Don’t worry about the scripture you can keep it to yourself

Standing on the precipice and never letting go
Keep it down keep it all never let it show
Lock it up tight. Are they better off?
Or am I failing them all?
Is it my fault? is it something else I can’t control?

Do you hear it all
Or just my fear of loss?
Is this the way we go
Or just the way we fall?

Is this the cornerstone of growing cynical and wise?
Bitterness is spreading more than I can minimize
I can push past, I can bear the fall
I can balance it all
I feel it coming like the sleep that I can’t get at night

Is it worry or distress? It’s both and more
You’re Forever. Changing shape, life and course
You’re the point of chasing hope and risking all I know
I want to be complete and the light you hold

You don’t know me, but you know my heart

What’s the way to flight,
the second stars to right
and the morning that we want?
Or was it a misinterpretation
about the loss of our creations
we keep living out with misery and ghosts?

Every loss every push on my patience
Takes me closer to decaying
I keep your name safely guarded and sacred
There’s still hope here that you can make it

Their forthcoming LP, Mountain Laurel, draws from their influences including The National, M83, Bon Iver, Radiohead and Coldplay. Moving away from Post Rock, Wide Waters finds themselves entering a more Indie Rock chapter, but still implementing cinematic flourishes.
