about

A secular hymn by way of ballad turned rock barnstormer turned ambient waterscape, Take Me To A Lake centers around the journey into and out of being. The conservation of matter, the persistance of energy, myth-making, social influence, form and formlessness and of course, lakes.

"Cloudmouth is back, and more Cloudmouth than ever before!" - Cloudmouth

lyrics

Take me to a lake,
Let me wash my head
of the rivers in my brain
Flooded again from the seasonal rains

I want to build an ark,
And can we talk about
How nothing ever happens?
I think I'm filling up
With animal momentum,
But nothing ever happens...

Take me to the end,
Let me fall down hard
Like a dead tree in the wind!
All my cast-off parts are pulled to land,
Like they never left the ground,
I'll be pushing up again,
Looking nothing like myself.

I want an endless death.
And, can we talk about
How nothing ever happens,
That hasn't started yet?
We will still be talking
When our last breath is spilling out...

And I won't be unmade
If there's no one there to make me.
And I won't be the same
If there's nothing there to change me.

Take me to a lake,
Let me wash my head
of the rivers in my brain
Flooded again from the seasonal rains.
