you're the alpha
you're whale
no one ever questioned why you
walk the way you
walk away you
can't relate you
never will
i'm important
i exist
to serve a purpose
you don't even realize is
bigger than you
older and more sacred
than you think
there's a reason why i offer you these things
they're the reason i'm alive
a gleaming emerald lying next to my heart
i still believe we're all the same
some have antlers
and some have wings

no she said it's all in your head
you never wanted to make it anyway
you're a quiet guy you live a quiet life
it's all going according to your plan
but what i didn't understand is why
the world's so commercially defined
and the measure of success is what you
sell sell sell sell sell
and i've wasted all my time being sincere
no again it's all in your head
you've done exactly what you were meant to do
you towed a different line you payed a different fine
but you'll have more to show for in the end
so don't give up just learn
don't be afraid just grow
don't look ahead or behind
see what you want in your mind
and go and go and go and go

there are better times on the way
there are better things up ahead
this is only a temporary situation
you're alright now
you're alright now
took you so long to be here
and you're not unhappy anymore
and not uphappy anymore
now you feel alive
it might not feel right at first
it may not make sense right away
but if you understand it on some level
it will all work out okay

you are the fire in my life
you are the one that takes me
all the way up
and all the way back down
i'm tripping
and i like it
and i'm happy
and i love myself

sky above me
earth below me
happy to be here
happy to be here
past behind me
future beyond me
happy to be here
happy to be here
i will always be at peace
amid the falling autumn leaves

our machines

there is a place
where all of our machines
will take their energy directly from the sun
which gives it openly and happily
there is a time
when we will rise above
all the things that keep us running around
on the ground
and we will all be there
to participate
forever

not quite having reached the end
a new cycle starts
there shall be a place for us
somewhere in the world
don't try to reason
time is somhow on our side
always slideshows and open roads
as we seek to find places unknown

and the moon rises silently
and the stars come out at night
and then the earth goes to sleep
and the world ends where it begins

off again at the water front
lonely wasted afternoon
close your eyes under sullen sky
one small motorboat slowly passes by
take the easy way
take the easy road
don't choose the high road
take the easy road
gone again empty city streets
walking home in the cold
save yourself change your attitude
show them all your just fine

about
This album is a tangled, muddy mess, but i will try to explain. First off, the title is pronounced: m-v-r / v-b-r / m-v-r. Say the letters in groups of three--there's a rhythmic quality. Such a nonsensical word is fitting for an album containing words that are often difficult to hear or discern.
There seemed to be something special about 'storynaught' and so i felt the need out-do myself. But i also felt that my sound had fallen far behind the types of electronic music that i really admired. So i tried to bend and twist my stuff in new directions with tricky arrangements and lots of distortion and effects. Unfortunately, my mixing and mastering skills didn't really support my efforts.
Nor did it help that words and vocals were beginning to creep into my creative process. Or that i was trying to transition from Apple OS 9 to OS X which wreaked havoc on my recording software and devices. Things were changing...
