Lyrics

Hey real quick Who are you? what are you? Tell me everything you think

Just got a few minutes spare So I thought I’d leave a note Here to understand life’s meaning I’m kinda curious about everything unknown to me

Tell me what you believe in so far I'll get a ticket if I don’t move my car

Hey real quick Who are you what are you? Tell me everything you think And how was your week? Why is there something instead of nothing Hurry go ahead and speak

Quick question of what do you think defines us In 200 words or less What defines this experience Is there something more beyond this? A simple yes or no please, give us the gist I’ve gotta run, have some appointments to go to Is Plato’s cave an explanation of our view ? Is our consciousness a big chemical soup? Cliff notes--please--I’m gonna head in a few

Hey real quick Who are you what are you? Tell me everything you think And how was your week? Why is there something instead of nothing Hurry go ahead and speak

go ahead and speak Hey real quick

The opening atmospherics was deceptive. I did not expect where it went. I LOVE THAT. And then the message; I want to know everything but won't make time for it hits hard. Well done!

The atmosphere depicted here is magnificent, and the combination of your voice and the instrumentation is perfect! The guitars with reverb/delay are simply perfect! I love post-rock, and I am definitely not disappointed. Well done!

Killing it as usual! Love that delay at the start, sucks you in. That beat dropping in is so sick, I was kind of wondering where the music and the vocals were going, it was kinda skittery and unpredictable, and then the drums fell in strong, and it all came crashing into focus.

I love the dichotomy you pose: we desire to be "enlightened", but we need the journey to be as quick as possible. That entire spoken word portion was divine. Like, life is going to continue on, and we have to get the little things done, but quick, could you tell me the meaning of life? Or can you, as you say, offer up a Cliff Notes, we gotte get going.

Really cool concept, and you nailed it.
