lyrics

As you walk into the mist
blinded by the life you missed
hate destroys the choice you made
As you mourn for yesterday
Floating on a spiral sea
Takes you far away from me
Unseen currents ebb and flow
Captured by the undertow
I can’t tell just where I’ll be
Mansion hail or misplaced refugee
Sliding down the mountainside
slips me up & takes me for a ride

I have walked 2 miles thru the daylight and the night for you
Late arriving can you feel me crying through the rendezvous
Time is shifting sand is sifting through my open hand it’s true
Leave the bloodshot eyes your counterplot is plotting lies for you

I can feel you near me soon
Have you sent my letter to the moon?
Midnight on the 1st of May
We could be together anyway
I’d accept an IOU
If you’d grant me one last interview
Sitting by your fireside
leaves me lost and ever mystified

I have walked into your dream converting themes to light for you
Thankless effort spent but what I meant to say and meant to do
missed the mark misplaced the bookmark miscellaneous I knew
how to say goodbye to Monday stake my claim on Waterloo

I can feel you near me soon
Have you sent my letter to the moon?
Midnight on the 1st of May
We could be together anyway
I’d accept an IOU
If you’d grant me one last interview
Sitting by your fireside
leaves me lost and ever mystified

Mutiny in Jonestown Washington

Influenced by classic 70's progressive rock bands like King Crimson, Van Der Graaf Generator & Genesis - along with late 60's psychedelia from The Beatles, Procol Harum & Pink Floyd (with a little 70's Black Sabbath thrown in for good measure), Mutiny in Jonestown has always sought to take these influences and synthesize them into something new.

The band has released 42 albums since 1987.
