When It Happens (it happens all at once) And you'll live a long life Amongst all of your friends While that's easy to say It's so good when you know It's so good when you know It's so you good when you- And I rush and I rush (can't ignore the rain) And you push and you'll when I'm gone (counting endless days) And we'll go and we'll go It's so good, Its so good when you know. You resemble a short future Assorted troubled past Locked into a disposition Of a life that'll never last (and I rush when I'm gone) No one knows the way No one knows the way Counting endless days (no one knows the way) Counting endless days (can't ignore the rain) No one knows the way, the way, the way now And I rush and I rush (can't ignore the rain) And you push and you'll when I'm gone (counting endless days) And we'll go and we'll go It's so good, Its so good when you know.

PERPETUALLY WAKING UP We share the same point of view Up on the same kind of ledge Hollow- And tangled in the vine Narrow- In thought and design Made with intent to change around a life. Over- Outlines on the wall Lasting- Despite of it all Alter. Edit. Project on a screen (Last seen as a better man) We share the same point of view (In the yard with a broken hand) Up on the same sort of ledge (Spoke once of his dreams and plans) People in cars. Planes and things. Out in their scenes, on the go. Hollow- And tangled in the vine Narrow- In thought and design Like a Pharaoh- Sinking in his chair. Let’s test our devotion while completely unaware.

Old Dollar 04:28
OLD DOLLAR Sample: (Old Dollar Mamie told-a Old Dollar Bob well-a Old Dollar Mamie told-a Old Dollar Bob well-a) Never been so tired Never felt so lonely All we can pretend Is a world we lose I have been a god I have desperate And he thinks I’m lovely In a world I lost Well you raise ‘em higher let ‘em Let ‘em drop on down Well you raise ‘em higher let ‘em Let ‘em drop on down Well you raise ‘em higher let ‘em Let ‘em drop on down And you won’t know the difference when the sun goes down. And the sun goes down… And the sun goes down… I dare say It’s something to lean on But some say It’s nothing at all Never been so tired Never felt so lonely All we can pretend Is a world we lose If I wrote a book You could be the letters Filling every page Beginning to end - - And into the world Well you raise ‘em higher let ‘em Let ‘em drop on down Well you raise ‘em higher let ‘em Let ‘em drop on down Well you raise ‘em higher let ‘em Let ‘em drop on down And you won’t know the difference when the sun goes down. And the sun goes down… And the sun goes down…

Riser 03:14
Everything you hoped you’d be And anything you hoped I was It leaves without a trace from here Any everything I hoped you were Thought and wished and dreamed It’s lost And stops me in my tracks each time. Grew Tired lies Tired lives Tired eyes This way Each time Each time I fall As long as you hoped to Starve if you want to But only if you hope to Grew Tired lies Tired lives Tired eyes This way Each time I fall I land As long as you hoped to Starve if you want to But only if you hope to

Portal 05:44
(hey, hey, hey, don’t go) I’d follow you anywhere you go Just want to be your friend anyway I’d follow you anywhere you go Just want to be your friend anyway It starts with a long stride to space apart It ends with a deep sigh to lie around And it’s been a long time for you and me Well it’s been a short life in her memory There was a time, there was a time There was a time when a tree would grow Theres was a place, there was a place There was a place where the sky would glow

Lay Awake 04:22
Lay awake Lay awake Don’t forget Don’t forget When you’re far away Far away- Fast pace. Slow step. Wide stance. Long sleeves. It’s just a short drive from here It just a short drive Old soul. Young life. Shy girl. Grey eyes. She lived a long time ago She lived a long time. Turned off all the lights- the lights around. Saw the houses- from far away, far away. The snow that falls between words, builds a space for me, space for me. Dont’ forget, don’t forget. When you’re far away. Far away- Cold hands. Warm heart. Long face. Short breath. They let a few strays in here. They let a few strays. Quick glance. Long stare. Sharp tongue. Soft touch. It’s just a few days from here It’s just a few days Turned off all the lights- the lights around. Saw the houses- from far away, far away.

I've been asleep For a thousand long years Under weary skies All my dreams have died (**fuck the facts) I've been asleep For a thousand long years Under weary skies All my dreams have died (something for your mind, your body and your soul*) Sink the ships And burn the fields Oh boy (a journey of force hot like the sun and wet like the rain*) Pass thru the storm See your life torn down Oh no Leave all the stars In the sky Where they are (*ryth-matic movements in unison with others prolong and act of sensation with no limits or boundaries, eternity is past, wrong is right, it's the point of greatest intensity, pleasure of the highest sense. Feelings of warmth and security, willing and unwilling sensations of the mind. A condition.) Now to return Built of glass Cast in stone Stare at the tower Watch the hands Move the hour Sink the ships And burn the fields Oh boy (a journey of force hot like the sun and wet like the rain*) Pass thru the storm See your life torn down Oh no (*A condition. The ultimate seduction. The realm) **creative common samples: "fuck the facts" and "The Realm"

Near the old house Sits the old man In his garden He barely sees (tried to see that, tried to see that way) He barely sees (tried to see that, tried to see that way) I tried to see And I tried to feel that way I tried be I want to see one day I love it when you- Tried to see that way Tried to see that way Tried to, want to be Near the old house Sits the old man (tried to, want to) In his garden (tried to be that) He barely sees (tried to see) He barely sees He barley sees. I tried to see And I tried to feel that way I tried be I want to see one day I love it when you- Tried to see that way I tried to see that way I tried to, I want to I tried to, I want to I tired to see that way Your way.

about

"Weaving together a slew of soft, breezy textures, Before the Glow, the debut album from Columbus, Ohio's Fine Animal sparkles, shuffles and whips around you.

The trio (vocalist/keyboardist Lucy Oaks, drummer KC Wilder, and guitarist/vocalist Kelan Gilbert) boldly explores the limits of electronic expression, taking cues from Air, Bonobo and St. Vincent."
