This is the story of blindly following those who tell us only what we want to hear.

lyrics

LIE TO ME

Lie to me.
Tell me just how much you love me.
Tell me how you’re going to make it all right.
Hold me close. Honey, hang on tight.

Lie to me.
It’s so easy, just you wait and see.
Say you’ll make it great again and I’ll believe.
As it once was, it can always be.
There will always be…

A future for you and me. (Lie to me.)
Yeah, the future that we’ve always dreamed. (Lie to me.)
Take my hand and I’ll be true to you (Lie to me.)
As long as the sky is blue.

Shelter me from the real live reality.
If it’s too complicated, make it too easy.
Unchain me from responsibility.

Lie to me. Tell me stories of the golden age.
How the kids just don’t get it today.
How the music was so much better back in the day.

There’s a world where nostalgia reigns supreme. (Lie to me.)
A future repeating history. (Lie to me.)
I’ll whisper sweet nothings in your ear. (Lie to me.)
Mysteries! Wonder! All will be revealed.

Set me free.
It’s as simple as 1.2.3
The facts don’t matter as much as how I feel.
And you know how to make me feel.

Unburden me.
Tell me that it won’t be my fault.
That my hand in no way plays a part.
That there will always be someone else to blame.
That there’s nothing we could do anyway.
Well anyway…

There’s a future for you and me. (Lie to me.)
Down the path, through the garden, I’ll pick you flowers.
I’ll whisper sweet nothings in your ear. (Lie to me.)
Bouquets of bluebells, impatiens, dafodils.
We’ll sleep under pale skies of green
And drink from glassy purple seas. (Lie to me.)

Pluto's Not A Planet! image

Pluto's Not A Planet! Washington, D.C.

Pluto’s Not a Planet! is a sonic reckoning with life, the universe and everything. An auditory supernova to disrupt complacency. A nebulous meditation to soothe a disquieted mind. The cosmos are vast and expansive but we are not alone out here. Within its apparent randomness, there are underlying patterns, interconnectedness, feedback loops, self-similarity, and self-organization. ... more
