about
A reminder that change, while exciting and new, can surprisingly disrupt who we think we've been, what was important in the past and what will be missed (if anything) amidst the newness...
lyrics
Well you've fallen down from running
Never dreamt of this day coming
Calling out for patience, a fruit and a curvy stone
Tilt my head just upward and break my study of the road
And remember why I came here
It was a conscious decision to travel another road
As the wheel of time spins faster
5 years down but what comes after?
Why so soon we've forgotten how our precious moments are so few
Reaching out for comfort, for a kiss or a centrifuge
Separate the sadness in your heart from your walking shoes
That have brought you to this moment
Between your roots and the sun is the fear you'll have to choose
Asking for some confidence, a smoke or some aspartame
To hone in on my weightlessness, the incineration of my legs
That tell the story of our arrival
All the years with you and you I can't betray
Never dreamt of this day coming
Calling out for patience, a fruit and a curvy stone
Tilt my head just upward and break my study of the road
And remember why I came here
It was a conscious decision to travel another road
As the wheel of time spins faster
5 years down but what comes after?
Why so soon we've forgotten how our precious moments are so few
Reaching out for comfort, for a kiss or a centrifuge
Separate the sadness in your heart from your walking shoes
That have brought you to this moment
Between your roots and the sun is the fear you'll have to choose
Asking for some confidence, a smoke or some aspartame
To hone in on my weightlessness, the incineration of my legs
That tell the story of our arrival
All the years with you and you I can't betray

Brian Taguchi Kingston, Ontario
Brian Taguchi lives in Kingston, on the other side of the university from the hospital where he was born. Growing up, many
hours were spent in the basement learning, playing, writing, recording and mixing music...This where the action still happens - when the candle is lit.
Introspective and narrative, Brian hangs out in the gray zone between advocating and mourning, ambition and uncertainty..
