Bad Future 03:02
You said there's another way But I know there's no way 'Cause I saw you up ahead And this is what you said: There will be no purpose There will be no pleasure All we have is a bad future We all have bad futures Yeah I know there's no way 'Cause I saw it in your face All we can do is grow old
2.
No One 02:49
Watch it behind your eyes When you sleep Awake inside a dream Feel the stars like a rosary All of your photographs and the places you've been to Only cast a shadow then stumble to fall toward the slew Look at you move as a wanderer in the millennium Counting all your constellations Caught in space for no one and everyone All of your photographs and the faces you've seen to Only cast a Shadow then stumble to fall toward the slew You know it'll come 'round As all the entranced ghosts haunt in North America Death, then a long wait to fade out Oh, do you hear them sing? I'll lend you my ear if you sing me a song I don't care if you're out of tune I lent you my ear you sang me some songs I didn't care when you were out of tune
3.
Hello Loneliness Though I like the way you crept in my bed I want to sleep alone tonight Shut up little voice Though I like the things that you say Sometimes I wanna be in silence Maybe crazy No time to lose my mind Uh Oh x2 (Look into the eyes you'll only go blind) Hello little eyes Though I like the things that you see Sometimes I wanna be alone and blind Shut up little mouth Though I like the things that you eat Sometimes I wanna go to bed hungry
4.
Vacation 03:33
Do you wanna feel the rush again? Then come and let it in It will take you through the true blue to the very end Where your dreams are unleashed But if a Judge goes: Bang! Bang! Order in this court! Do not worry - in this room there is no Jury There are puppeteers in the void See them untying the strings tangled up with tomorrow As your twenties came to pass in a cursed terrain You felt it in your spine speeding up and taking off into another plain Don't think you lost it, it's just a flight to a new kind of vacation Watch it come from the beyond into your brain A strange forgotten song The dark mystery A verdict gets spelt out for us we are G-U-I-L-T-Y For the jinx we put inside our imagination And sabotaging the way toward some new kind of vacation
5.
Never should I ever wandered through your heart I never meant no harm, but it was wrong from the start Maybe, Always, Never will I go away Said I would come back but it was all just a fake You said that you wanted the truth But the truth is that you will lose in the end I never wanted more than you could give If I am the problem, why do I exist? I only made you all to make you think about it
6.
Ether 04:59
You blew my heart out like a candle in a sandstorm And its clouds of sin and smoke All the things that we spoke of - promises with wings to the wind You blew my heart out It blew my heart out God blew my heart out You know nothing'll last forever La la la la la Your mama said we're all made of ether La la la la la It's true
7.
You say what I say makes no sense But I see you laugh and smile like you understand Why won't you just let me scream it all out? 'Cause I want it all and nothing more Give me peace, give me war Give me everything and nothing more Give me love, give me hate Give me everything I can't explain I try to put my hand on my mouth Whenever I feel something coming out It's just too hard for me to keep it contained Avoiding boredom in a world with all of these things Give me him, give me her Give me everything from every gender Give me peace, give me war I want it all and nothing more You say what I say makes no sense But I see you laugh and smile like you understand Why won't you just let me scream it all out? 'Cause I want it all and nothing more
8.
Moonkisser 02:51
No one will ever notice that you are not around I will secretly laugh when you are screaming from the ground No one ever noticed that you were always drunk I saw the bow of your boat kiss the moon as it sunk No one else will read your mind, see through your eyes, hide the truth and all the lies like I do No they won't
9.
Orphan Maker 04:30
Made a maze inside of time and put it on the earth I watched them build it higher and higher only to fall again A story told before the sun grew old Like the way toward a kiss It's a small warm-up to bliss Some are gonna get colder and colder I am the heat I'm in honeymoon suites Sometimes I'm the orphan maker From a mom and dad to a hospital Into another secret stream Inside a mind obscened by all the lives to lead Mon dieu qu'est que tu veux? Grandma's numb and dosing on morphine I am the heat From a mom and dad to a hospital They are skeletons in time
10.
Déjà Vu 03:20
And it had just begun this real strange mutation You got old and quit the parade but then you thought, "Where have I seen this before? Deja Vu!" All you strangers and doppelgangers: have we been introduced? Living in the hourglass you breath out all the sand The minutes keep circling a clock's fast second hand While the whispers in your head say "Deja Vu!" Seen it before - it's already been said Now I wish to forget We are dancing above the grave Oh, it's such a rave We make our metaphors to see 'em fly into the chasm Then a cremator will come for you and me He'll burn our flesh He'll set us all on fire then we'll be on our way home Seeing the end of billions of billions
11.
Don't look too close you don't know what you'll find There's something living at the bottom of your spine There's a man in the room that I know won't go away Holy Eyes, we'll let him play Always seeking for the place between inner and outer space Into the black hole

about

some appreciated, early praise for 'Holy Data':

Grayowl Point: "This is the kind of album that could shape a year, that you can put in your back pocket and bring out wherever you go. This is an album that stays with you.... Holy Data have your all-seasons companion: a record to hold through the turbulence of life."

Brooklyn Vegan: "The band craft guitar pop in a not-too-distant-future-by-way-of-1967 way, and the record is chock-a-block with memorable songs and arrangements."

Silent Shout (on lead single 'Ether'): "Vivid psych-pop warps the track until it culminates in a kaleidoscopic cluster of synths, guitar, and a contagious chorus. As a result, the blissful frenzy at the crux of “Ether’s” charm is unleashed."
