about

Another single from 'The Glassy Ocean' album and following up the recent release of Swallow in the Hollow This 'beast' of a song 'East Wall', has made it over the finish line. A song of escape and the search for freedom. The live studio recording by Nicantsaoi has captured the transformation involved in taking a leap of faith. Now! Enjoy the chase!

lyrics

~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was on my way down east wall when an animal
jumped out of the shore
I was shaking in my boots
shivering from what I saw
it turned about and looked at me and said "what are you about?"
I said that I was on my way to the institute
its down east wall, I really cannot stall or they'll look for me
please let me go by, I really ought to fly
or they'll look for me, yeah they'll come looking for me

ouuuuuuuuuu.....

he said "why hare have you obligations, who do you serve?
please vindicate your reasons to go on..
what you ought to do honey, is to hit the ground running
a hundred times faster than light, here hare, hop on my tail
run up my back to the tip of my sill.. jump
you said you ought to fly, don't worry little bunny don't cry
just howl...
and let them come looking for me
let them come looking for me
let them come looking
let them come looking
let them come looking
