The yellow dawn it shines upon My still shut weary eyes And just for that one moment I still don't realize How this human maze Will soon invade my life Its like a poison, seeping deeper now I gotta get out and work to live today Its such a shame I can't lay out in the rain Its given new life a chance to breath Its given young minds the space they need to dream I trade in my days For spare change I'm living in between The spaces in between I can't make a meal Outta paper money But with the seed and the soil The sun and the rain's all I need If you're too blind to see Please hang up the phone and shut off the TV We're running in circles, when life is our right Let's cut out the middle man and let the earth provide So we won't rely On everything they want us to buy Your money or your life

The Flood 04:04
The flood came to my door last night And I got an awful fright I strapped my body to an old oak raft And so began my plight So began my plight Waves crashed down upon my head I was cast away Chained to the storm on a wooden board Well, the rest I can not say The rest I can not say What have I lost What have I found in your eyes Certain demise No reprise Once upon a dream On a golden reef Corral caressed your feet so sweet Its just a memory Its just a memory So take me by the hand Or take me by the knife But lay down beside me your life It never was my plan to tread your wake Your shallow's too deep Your shallow is too deep

about

Opel Springfield, Massachusetts

Springfield, Massachusetts based rock band, Opel began writing and performing songs about love, life, loss, and addiction back in 2005 when bassist Bill Szafarowitz and song writer James Fiore (formerly of the band Project Fuzz) joined forces. ... more
