Errant Son 04:12
lyrics
buy track
by the hand of an errant son never thought of another one but the scope has a dented glass mixing the present with the past i don’t feel what i used to feel hard to know what is real in the land of the wasted where we scar, but we never heal covered up so heavily dressed digging through the layers would be a mess copies of us to populate our towns never full, but wanting less oh fire come down from the mountain can we ever evolve not a sign of a whisper lends comfort to a fool entrenched but if a nail could be so strong why all the dance and song parallel with the silent dream other than a grand orchestra unseen in the land of the wasted where we explore in the darker themes all adore, elevate this sale one never would have lost the trail fall on the sword of a warrior no penance for the ones who fail give it up, give it up had enough, had enough all in a disarray let it up, let it up it was a bluff, it was a bluff put the power on display

Chase 04:38
lyrics

lived in a parallel pastel fairytale’d life run for the meadowland, turn to the other hand nigh gail of the century, though momentarily blank wind from the wanderlust, wail for the readjust rank is anybody out there for me to chase is there anybody out there to take your place you love what you love when you love you take it away when you’re done you love who you love when you love no fuss when the morning comes time must have faded when i looked the other way because i saw you when my head turned back and in a moment all the world around me was a chorus to behold anew with harmonies intact once unafraid I maybe acted hasty with no care to mind i’d see the flame, baby, and you would see the desire of my heart burning through my eyes the heat remains but its changed to forever taint anything bursting with brightness palindromes running through my head in recall…i lost it all it’s only when in hindsight that i repaint history as a projection of my grief but when there was nobody to blame i needed everything to stay the same, no turning of the leaf once felt astray but it’s all hazy fading faster than the firelight i felt the flame, baby, and you would feel the desire in my arms never letting go the heat remains but its changed to forever fear anything potentially pressing listening for a voice to tell me different….can i resent, or re-invent

if all you’re after can wash away in rain a cry in laughter is all that will remain the tales of old have set my course we can run wrapped in shiny gold the fortune told of a new sun the day my lips can taste honey the day my wallet don’t need money before I’m captured before I surrender i only ask for your grace for the future the tales of old have set my course we can run wrapped in shiny gold the fortune told of a new sun the day my lips can taste honey the day my wallet don’t need money find a truth that won’t sound funny

your gonna break my heart i’m gonna lose control don’t break my heart i’m gonna lose control what was i looking for when i found you i crowned you, put my arms around you like the seed of a tree, it took time to grow baby this is what you know we never really got to take it nice and slow although, it didn’t seem to matter so much at the time never needed reason when we always had rhyme ooh girl you know what you need and we both know it isn’t me can’t live in the fantasy for long please give me closure i want to be closer i wish that i could let you know but it’s a little too late and we’ve come up short talk about the day you remember me best how to find the way to turn it back to reset never had a thought to look back in regret but now i’m upset, couldn’t gauge the effect the measure of myself was revealed in this mess all because when you left, folded cards i felt less we couldn’t draw a plan, always needed to rest never would expand, live a little, no stretch so careless with a catch, a mistake i confess every little detail in my dream has been etched play it in my mind too many times to forget all my favorite films aside for me to inspect i’ll rewrite this wreck, i’ll keep placing bets until it’s time to collect please give me closure i want to be closer i wish that i could let you know but it’s a little too late and we’ve come up short i wish i could let you go i reaped what i had to sew i wish i could let you go i reaped what i had to sew

Feels like I'm standing in a timeless dream Of light mists with pale amber rose Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent Touching, discovering you Those days of warm rains come rushing back to me Miles of windless summer nights (Summer nights) Secret moments shared within the heat of the afternoon Out of the stillness, soft spoken words Say it, say it again I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you Say it, say it again I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you You've got... The most unbelievable blue eyes I've ever seen You've got... Me almost melting away As we lay there Under a blue sky with pure white stars Exotic sweetness A magical time Say it, say it again I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you (Say it, say it again) I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you Say you'll love and love me forever Never stop, never whatever Near and far and always everywhere and everything Say you'll love and love me forever Never stop, never whatever Near and far and always everywhere and everything Say you'll love and love me forever Never stop, never whatever Near and far and always everywhere and everything Say you'll love and love me forever Never stop, never whatever Near and far and always everywhere and everything I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you I love you always forever Near or far, closer together Everywhere I will be with you Everything I will do for you I love you always forever

Fire on the beach Face to the sky The stars dance around like gods in disguise The gold silhouette You take off your clothes And my heart feels the weight of all I don't know Memories and mountain tops Drunk on Sunset Boulevard With the city of angels singing on Maybe this is just a dream And maybe we are still asleep But I, I will miss you when I'm gone Flickers of the canyon fire Its hands raised like a gospel choir If we live forever, let us live forever tonight Helicopters against moonlight Our holy mother of the midnight And if we live forever, let us live forever tonight Tomorrow we'll go Back to our lives With sand in our skin and sun in our eyes But I know the truth I've seen the signs And I've seen the golden gods in disguise Memories and mountain tops Drunk on Sunset Boulevard With the city of angels singing on Maybe this is just a dream And maybe we are still asleep But I, I will miss you when I'm gone Flickers of the canyon fire Its hands raised like a gospel choir If we live forever, let us live forever tonight Helicopters against moonlight Our holy mother of the midnight And if we live forever, let us live forever tonight Flickers of the canyon fire Its hands raised like a gospel choir If we live forever, let us live forever tonight Helicopters against moonlight Our holy mother of the midnight And if we live forever, let us live forever tonight Flickers of the canyon fire Its hands raised like a gospel choir If we live forever, let us live forever tonight Helicopters against moonlight Our holy mother of the midnight And if we live forever, let us live forever tonight

i want to get lost with you let everything slip away but i don’t want to keep you hostage if it’s all a mistake don’t hold a candle for me you couldn’t leave it alone we gotta pay the debt on the time that we borrowed it was a hell of a show we put on at the revue but there were limitations on what i was able to do all of this to prove a point without regard for the cost i never meant for this loss what are we fighting for? A long delay what are we looking for, so far away i’m only dragging you down i’m dimming all of the lights i’m just afraid of what i will do if i don’t make this right self-fulfilling prophecies they organize all the grief to oversimplify in my mind’s eye all the deceit you need more, for me to stay call it a jealousy, with no one to blame what are we fighting for? A long delay what are we looking for, so far away i wanna turn down the noise i wanna switch to reset the sun is going down and i just know that we will regret when everything is at stake how can i really move on i know this wasn’t just chance it was a phenomenon easy now, we lost today baby, I’m sorry, that I can’t change you need more, for me to stay call it a jealousy, with no one to blame what are we fighting for? A long delay what are we looking for, so far away

i can’t trust the ones i love they’d rather see me safe can’t touch what i have lost no tunnel for escape fade out the city lights undue laces aligned turn down the bed tonight twirl back just one more time i’ll try to find a way to arm and loath the love left away felt velvet from a stone heard music from a wretch found youth from nothing new saw light I couldn’t catch to taste and then forget (a fool would see this, how the hell did you miss it) withdraw the wound in spite (belies a secret, what you did to keep it) discard the amulets (so ambitious, wouldn’t want to misfit) and you knew what was right i’ll try to find a way to arm and loath the love left away they'll tell me what is best if I can put to rest unwise to second guess i couldn’t get undressed i’ll try to find a way to arm and loath the love left away

Doors in Dreams 04:08

bury my own dead along with them are the secrets holding me down intertwined, out of time, nothing left better left unsaid i’m drowning in my own dreams within dreams, can I be redeemed come and lift me up come to save the love you birthed in me before it’s gone, gone, gone, all gone in a gentle way lead me to a place of tranquility paved with the embers of our toil in my dreams, I open a door to find a hallway without an end and this! I know! You stay when I go! give me the rope when I’ve fallen below give me the water for my seeds to grow let it be your face be it your embrace that comforts me the end! I feel it is near like a movie script with a good story, sound bites, and structure and intriguing narrative yhrilling conclusion only at the end of everything will the weight of who you are feel real doors on each side, perfect in alignment pacing, waiting...which to walk through

about

With a love for movies and their soundtracks, Skylight Motion Picture aims to make music that moves people while making people move. Since the launch of their self-titled debut EP in 2017, they've continued to explore various musical genres and nostalgic influences to make each collection of songs feel different than previous releases. Their debut LP, "The Sonic Relocation and Transformational Reverberation of the Spirit," contained over three years of material and was released in 2020.

Their follow-up album, "Music From the Film," completed production and was released in February 2022. With this album, chief songwriter and producer Ezekiel James Hampton sought to pay homage to much of the 'bedroom pop' music that shaped him in early adulthood. Despite this being a mostly electronically-produced album, listeners can expect less 80's-influenced synths and more orchestral instruments such as piano, glockenspiels, woodwinds, and strings. However, the formula of building on infectious hooks with rich harmonies has not changed. All lyrics to the album revolve around two themes: moving forward after being emotionally unprepared for a broken heart and spiritual evolution born out of the ashes of religious culture.

Other members have included Lamar Engel, Jordan Shaffer, Clarrisa Puente, and Joel Quigley.
