I am the Past
Alex MuroThis song is the precursor to becoming the future. Traveling Standing Still is coming next but its not really close to done. I would call this song a protest song against hopelessness.

A Letter to Separation
Tim Kochthis is a letter from Maralee to Separation, not to or from me. in fact its almost the oposite of everything i think about inter-personal relationships. it started as a poem, then became a letter, and then finally a song.

The Seattle Song
Tim Kochi originally set out to write a song about an earthquake destroying seattle, but then it turned into a story about a kid moving there, and then it became about me and my dealings with my mom over my possible plans of moving to seattle. i know she wont like it, but i also know she'll want me to do it if it's what i want to do, and that's why she's great.

To Be So Scared Part 3
Dan Pardee, Tim Koch, Alex Muro, Louis Apicellothis might win the award for elduing digital form for the longest time. dan and i wrote the first verse on a grand piano in england in may, and here it is new years day 2006 in albany. to make it quick, its about a girl i fell in love with when i was in denmark. other notes: dan rocks at piano, its really hard to sing, most of the drum parts were just my arms moving uncontrolably, it is not easy to play on guitar using a bus pass instead of a pick.

Pigeon on the Street
Dan PardeeBelieve me, hope really isn't as cruel as this song makes it out to be. Well, I mean it can be, but as long as you don't fall ass backwards into fantasy you won't be disappointed. Anyway that don't matter cause this song is about pigeons.

Becoming the Future
Alex MuroThis is the third or fourth song from the group of works referred to as While Waiting for the Space age. The I am the Past which in sequence directly preceeds this song is currently evading digital form. This song kind of reminds me of A melody, its kind of the same idea musically and maybe otherwise but Im not really sure.

The Typewriter Man
Tim Kochthis song/album is very similar to building dreams in that the lyrics are all pieces of conversation caught by the typewriter that i put together. this song is about a dream i had when i was 14 or so. it was a very meaningful dream, though i didn't know it at the time, but i guess it was meaningful enough so that i remember it seven years later.
