lyrics

That ship set sail
Too big to fail
I saw a face in amassing clouds
And over the water disturbing sounds
Go below deck
Where there's music
Where there is soft light to keep you calm
You don't realize when you start to hum along
What I am trying to say is
Nobody actually listens
If you had you just might have heard
Hull on iceberg
But maybe we just shouldn't bother now
It goes so deep underneath the water
I'm so sick of trying to pull the teeth out
How quickly they rot on food for thought
In line to be saved they just gave me some bread
In line for the circus they just put me to bed
We sleep now like little babies
Uneven snoring does betray me
Now they know that I have awakened
No more time to be complacent
We sleep now like little angels
Rocking slowly in little cradles
Jolt awake now it is time to bail
This ship is too big to fail

about

Mouthbreather Portland, Oregon

Math rock, post-hardcore, and experimental folk walk into a bar. The sound person only provides them with 4 drink tickets, because they are a two-piece band called Mouthbreather.
Dynamic song structures and time signatures with no shortage of distinct melody and thoughtful lyricism. Something for everybody! Except maybe your aunt who might say “I don’t get why he has to do all that yelling.”
