ivonahora Alt rock reminiscent of the late 90s/early 00s scene, but with better musicianship and undeniable prog sensibilities. Exciting songwriting and natural-sounding production make for a lovely listening experience. Favorite track: 2020.

The sun is here and it's here to stay How can we fight when all we've got is hell to pay? You're a blushing bride but the end's in sight One hundred thousand strong, three long years rolling on 'god help us' till then The sun is up again, so we feed and sell away All our sickles and dot displays, temporary thoughts to blame, we're sick again Like statues painting, sweating stories again Heatwave, again Look at the sight of you, running in spite of it God please- fuck it, we're hopeless! I'm only We're only I'm only As the wind sweeps through us As the wind sweeps through us Last chance to see And if you see what everybody sees We'll be singing and sighing Falling and fighting all the same I'm only We're only As the wind sweeps through us As the wind sweeps through us Last chance to see Last chance to see

Báisteach 03:59
Rain and a heavy heart Flowing over my head Floating over My love Wrapped in water My love You and me [Fearthainn] Ground and tree [Báisteach] Hold softly and stay Rain and a heavy heart Floating above my head Floating above Inter-omniversal Wrapped in You [Fearthainn] Follow me [Báisteach] And talk softly

City 03:57
In stone On the throne of all Ancient rulers overthrown You told a lie and told it loud Told it proud And through a crowded sale A shroud, a veil Half-truth on your suit A badge, a truce For things to change And stay the same The fight in its sight The stones breathe life And speak You told a lie and told it loud Told it proud And through the smoke inhaled The crowd, the veil Without a name Nobody left to blame A city unchained Without shame Nobody left to name A city unchanged

See my Mind's eye Be mine Eyes to the sun Right from the start Time laying out You and my heart Eyes to the sun I feel the same It's not going to change Why we hurt Hear me See me My eyes are open To burn through the sun But it feels the same It's not going to change We all will change We are children To eternity Eternity What are you saying? In all of the chaos You are at the centre The only piece of order The only part that's not a mess The only piece of order I feel the same It's not going to change Why we hurt Eyes to the sun

Taking water from the tree Draining blood on evergreen We're painting circles in the dust As we hurt See what you want to see Be what you want to be See what you want to see Be wherever you want to be See what you want to see Be what you want to be Leave if you want to leave See who you want to see You walk until you talk And you talk until you hurt We're carving patterns in the rust As we hurt And we hurt God I hurt See what you want to see Be what you want to be See what you want to see Be wherever you want to be See what you want to see Be what you want to be Leave if you want to leave See what you want to see I can't see I never saw until the fall We never fought until the war Hindsight's 20/20 You walk until you talk And you talk until you hurt And everything you say Would be void on a contract Just please let me stay here

Hyperspace 03:02
Lily-white pictures of love Shining on Shining on Little pictures of love Shining on Shining on It's enough What little knowledge is keeping face Keeping place and keeping time It's enough Shine on, shine on Shine on today Strong minds won't fold and regret Lily-white pictures of love Shining on Shining on Painting circles in hyperspace Holding place and waiting Until I am - until I'm ready To climb on, climb on Shine on today I'm not blind I am fine Forgive and forget Forgive and forget

Cannonball 02:16
Alone in a garden Sinking a seed I'd do almost anything Dark on the corner and desperate to please Slipping off the wall Alone in a garden Slipping into panic Insult to injury Into panic All eyes on the ceiling and dust on the floor We're drinking a cannonball Asleep in a garden Arrested, asleep Waiting for air Asleep in a garden Slipping into panic Insult to injury Into panic Slipping off the wall Into panic Insult to injury Into panic

Buffalo 02:11
Symphonies of change like butterflies swarm We've never seen anything but life as we know it Sing a crown upon our heads and pray our children might return It's like buffaloes caught the blame Note their continuing absence Crown, hall and king gone insane but wheels keep turning Sing a crown upon your heads We know our fear, ours to burn Walls of stone and halls of chrome We make our children Symphonies of change like a buffalo swarm We've never seen anything but life as we know it Sing a crown upon our heads We know our fear, ours to burn Build our home and wait no more We are our children

Disaster 03:50
We are all waiting for you now We are waiting While you're putting your shoes on  Before 'disaster' We fall With all our luck, we fall deeper again And rise Hereafter

I've seen all I can see All the distractions Passions and loose ends till I'm back in fashion I'd know I'd know if you'd confide in me Confide in me So I, I- An eye for an eye The whole world is blind And I can't fly You've seen every fight every blight on an otherwise perfect melody Every little bite I take from everyone And I'd know it I'd know if you'd confide in me Confide in me So an eye- an eye for an eye The whole world is blind And I can't fly anymore The whole world is blind And I- I can't fly anymore And I can't hide No, I- No, I- And, I...

The lights of the highway Form solid rock and tree soil These flickering lines, free-form Wander home Everyone is out of sight And taxis rule the streets tonight All of these flickered lights Lead us home You don't know what you're doing No you don't know what you're doing No one knows what they're doing Tonight Tonight Softly through the streets paved with Electric lines, through our eyes Every sparking motorcade Will set us through You don't know what you're doing No you don't know what you're doing No one knows what they're doing Tonight In street light Tonight

Morningbird 04:24
So the morningbird wakes beneath my feet, beneath my wings Light holds its tongue Not too long till we're open Till we're open Waking shoulders reach and sigh a new waking world I fell on a mountain range, a cushioned weight I am home Light holds its breath over a fabricated sleep Not so long since it started Waking arms fall on arms, we are breathing as one Until it's time to begin again Now it's time to begin Words fall on words but I'm ready to begin again Until it's time to begin again Now I'm ready to begin Words fall on words but I'm ready to begin again To begin again I am home.
