about

On Candlestick Army's Cabin Dreams, there is a moment where I try to add to the ambience by singing "take me away". I do not remember if this song was written before that or as a result of that but I have a knack for taking a really minor bit of music and turning it into a full fledged song so I assume that's what happened here. The lyrics are a sort of expansion on a Millard Fillmore Collective song "Alaska Young".

lyrics

Take me away from here please
I have no right to call this home
I'm a mistake, a reject, I know it and accept it
Now I need to make this right
I'm a loser, an other, something or another again

Somewhere in this world their is an island for misfit boys
Who want to poison everyone that they used to love
But were abandoned by and the only way to break the curse
Is to poison everyone they used to love
Poison everyone they used to love

Somewhere out in space there is a planet that's inhabited
By all the different kinds of different things that are too awesome
How to think about or think aloud cause either one will hold you down
It's best to just keep quiet about this miracle you've conjured on your own
This miracle you've conjured on your own
On your own
On your own
On your own
Own

Somewhere in this world their is an island for misfit boys
Who want to poison everyone that they used to love
But were abandoned by and the only way to break the curse
Is to poison everyone they used to love
That they used to love
Love

The Pineapple Army Michigan

I've always been terrible at writing biographies so why stop now. We're probably a band from Michigan. We don't adhere to a specific genre which causes mild schizophrenia in certain individuals. We will write commercial jingles for the right price and we do NOT play at weddings, only funerals. ... more
