OK string theory right? Not that it's right but I believe it is all waves. We are all waves. Big waves. Tiny waves. Mean waves. Happy sexy waves. Ugly jealous waves. Tiny revengefull waves with poison in their curves and backlash in their winks. (yes waves wink) And apology is a wave too.
So basically we fuck with these waves in a really loud way. We bend them and combine them to make you feel different emotions. Which are just feelings that we dig that remind us of times we have had and that we wish would never be forgotten even though we will all pass away and no one will really ever know exactly what we are getting at. But that's all just a part of it and we will play along and maybe even make a joke or two just for a little comic relief. Basically we are recreating the sound of young girls laughing as heard from an old man's deathbed through an open afternoon window in September and it's not too hot anymore.
And then I sing over all this shit, these waves. But don't worry yourself with the lyrics. I am not trying to answer any questions. I am just having fun with sound and meaning. I am just giving myself advice. I am trying to remember.
