lyrics
the economy of a dogs nose evaporating the forest the ground expects its inhabitants or which color expects? error is a mother per se but it remains expressionless absolutely empty so long as the reciprocal remains a place w/ out an occupant maternal eternal is an occupant w/ out place with out place

If Not Winter 03:14
lyrics
if not winter, with sun's galore displays its rays forever more of course that which you realize the change in season's cloudy skies with love sickness creeping in made, instead of flesh, with skin if not winter the sun denies the silver disc which drives the tides (x5)

Wyomings 1 & 2 06:30
lyrics
there was a house of black bile oh yeah Melancholy and you stopped down at the nile of both fate and folly only to find your flesh again only for your salvation the concrete had been ushered in into some bastard nation the concrete had been ushered in into some masturbation but I'm a palomino gal out in the sun, down in the bow but I'm a palomino gal out in the sun, down in the bow the bow and there you sat inside your frame it's all so nauseating much like an art w/ out a name resounds procrastinating but then what had your flesh returned apart from untimely wounds transcendence blesses as it burns as does every childish swoon hunger-artists sure know how to yearn but know nothing of the spoon but I'm a palomino gal out in the sun, down in the bow but I'm a palomino gal out in the sun, down in the bow the bow

Two Black Dogs 01:05
lyrics
well the rabbit is free but it waits for its death like a cage and the waiting's what kills it from the dog twins with no sense of rage yet fright was the cause through the over wrought heart of the page and the psychopomp rends the flesh that he lends to the sage two black dogs two black dogs

lyrics
the whole world is an illusion and I'm an illusion too an illusion in which I cannot exist without you if the chain of events presents another possible world and if the subject is a fiction then no predicate in which I'm boy and you're a girl anyways baby you know I'm just trying to get my fix and the question that remains to be posed is does anything truly exist does anything truly exist well I just don't know does anything truly exist I suppose it's possible I know baby, I know you're a professional gal but see if you follow my logic get tuned into my rational I swear baby if you just stick w/ me for a little while sooner or later you're going to be getting tune in to my dial besides baby you know I'm just trying to get my fix and the question that remains to be posed is does anything truly exist does anything truly exist well I just don't know does anything truly exist I suppose it's possible does anything truly exist well I just don't know does anything truly exist I suppose it's possible maybe...

Farewell To Useless Portals... (Sonrisa Sin Hombre) 03:21
lyrics
well I say farewell to useless portals I say au-revoir to the world in your eyes I say goodbye to all mere mortals I say so long to life's alibi body leaves me behind my head's no reply the hands once reservoir, now detest all but w/ out remains my smile retains my smile my smile my smile well I say farewell to useless portals I say au-revoir to the world in your eyes I say goodbye to all mere mortals I say so long to life's alibi

about

Recorded in Minneapolis, Torrington WY, and in various locales in Ecuador, it is an album of touching pop music. A double album whose recordings span some 5 years from start to finish. It has no real genre, and from song to song might swing wildly from one thing to another, but the blanket term of pop music does it "the" justice.

credits

released October 31, 2011

Everything written and produced by M. Curtis Allen except, "Model T Ford"; co-written with and co-performed by David Frohlich (playing acoustic guitar and singing).
