Sinking West 04:10
Prelude: Floating, on a Tuesday morning You're here as you always have been A magnet on a fridge Is this the way to live? Your world, nothing undiscovered Behold, Atlantis like a suburb By now you thought you'd know, exactly where to go By now you thought you'd see... In the mountains there were men Who would forsake their only friends When your wheel begins to bend In the mountains there were men, In the mountains there were men In the middle of the town, Buildings falling to the ground Toppled towers of the banks People stop and pay their thanks, In the middle of the town Hang your wallet on the cross What was won and what was lost? Spit your days out like exhaust You will measure what was lost You will measure what was lost Who are the ones you love?

Tell her how it is don't spare your blows this time This shit has gone on way too long And you're the one to blame Tell her that you're noble, that you search for truth You're Clark Kent waiting for his booth She's no Lois Lane She's had it with your sonnets and your roving eye, Your peddler's charm your cheap disguise Happy Halloween All your maybes got her thinkin' she's not gonna stay Don't you even say "Oh baby, please be patient" You're not gonna change You promised her your heart but it's no valentine You've built your castle in the sky, and it's a lonely home You're pleading from the rubble and it's awfully sad But your last stand ain't Stalingrad It's gone on too long All your maybes got her thinkin' she's not gonna stay Don't you even say "Oh baby, please be patient" You're not gonna change Do want to know the worst of it, my friend, my boy? You'd promised less, delivered more She'd love you anyway

about

The Sinking West EP is the first release by St. Catharines/Toronto based Barbarosa. The album is the culmination of two years of writing by frontman/songwriter Patrick Beedling. With dark acoustic textures underpinned by a pop sensibility, the songs call forth images of frontier lifestyles, modern progress and romance.
