Human Factor 02:35
Seems we’re all out of time Never quite a chance to unwind Fighting fire, fighting it with fire Just might get burned Seems the more that we earn The more that we spend The less we’re concerned About anybody but ourselves And you think we’d learn Find yourself on that line Time for analyzing your life Got to asking what could Make you whole It’s not the things that you buy The clothes that you wear The car that you drive Not anything that can be bought or sold Must be out of your mind To scale down the human factor Say it’s to make time for personal betterment Of your soul And you sure must be blind If you can’t see before you The consequences when human nature Is traded for gold

Orion 02:36
Cosmic lover Made up my mind I’m not going home This is where I’ll stay With you Long as you’ll be here So will I In our space In our space Orion is closer Now than ever Get to know the universe Around us I can feel your movement When I see you Every morning Every moment Every motion Whenever we drift away

Outside 04:17
Two girls are playing on a summer’s day Hopscotch, marbles and fantasy Sun’s dipping downward as evening falls They play on but nobody’s calling them Nobody’s home anyway But what to do with a single mom Who’s working all the time Just to bring home something Two boys have lost everyone they know End up in a children’s home Don’t understand how their folks could’ve Left life and left them wanting You heard what they say We have no home anyway But what to do when the state is handed full control of children’s fate Outside, the view’s alright You know the grass is greener on the other side And even if it were raining Somebody would be saving me Through the looking glass Evergreen preview of another life Now wouldn’t that be nice If I could just trade my cards In exchange for the one’s dealt me Don’t have to suffer in silence Or let your angst run astray Culminating in violence Blood starts to boil as fear takes hold You have lost your way Young man is waiting with his baby girl Mother can’t be there to see her when She’ll have her christening Cuz noone’s listening Union laborist daughter She was sent home anyways But what to do when the state doesn’t give a shit About the lives its ending Outside, the view’s alright You know the grass is greener on the other side And even if it were raining Somebody would be saving me Through the looking glass Evergreen preview of another life Now wouldn’t that be nice If I could just trade my cards In exchange for the one’s dealt me

Rotation 04:18
Didn’t see it coming now Or I would have run Mood set on lying low And down I go Lay it all to rest today With the setting sun Put on the stereo The lights down low On the other side of joy Seems you’ve been cornered By captivity And there’s no way of breaking free You’re head is full of noise That can’t be drowned out By your radio On the other side of joy
8.
Risky 03:23
A billion heads hung low All in awe and all in sorrow You marked the life we know Hero among we mere mortals On and on and on and on You came, you died, and you’re in a better place now And they tend to call it kingdom come And we’re slowly falling As you rise faster than the stars tonight Will be alright And now you’re moving Faster than the speed of light And we’re slowly falling As you rise faster than the starts tonight Will be alright And now you’re free of space And human time Stars tonight will be your guide To meet your maker Beyond speed of light
9.
NIMBY 05:18
We’re always saying Only not in my back yard Then it’s be alright Know we’d be slipping up To claim it slipped our minds Hidden from our sight You know you’ve heard it all a thousand times before Couldn’t get no worse But everybody always puts it to the test Driving fate’s own hurse It’ll get better – worse We might get luck – cursed Load will be lighter – hurse Not in my back yard And every morning when you wake up in your pain Stand and face the mirror You reassure yourself that we all act in vain Give in to your fear It’ll get better – worse We might get luck – cursed Load will be lighter – hurse Not in my back yard

River Town 03:14
I can’t hear you For the rushing of the river bend Tells a story And you know that story has no end Time she passes by River steadfast in her place Living monument to those Who knew her grace Human nature Birth and death and love and war All we’ve brought her then Just ashes once we’re gone Whispers to you Living monument Living monument

Ummagma

Our 'Compass' LP is OUT NOW. Blending dreampop, prog rock, post-rock, ethereal, nugaze & post-punk within intense landscapes, gossamer vocals and pulsating beats. This Canadian-Ukrainian duo of Alexx Kretov & Shauna McLarnon began in Moscow as an affair with love and sound and has blossomed across borders. Also find their 'LCD' EP with Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins) & Dean Garcia (Curve, SPC ECO). ... more
