Where’d you go Radio Waiting there for me Gathered my depictions Kicked in my TV Where’d you go Domino Waiting patiently I miss your inevitable Falling down routine Claim this old Camisole Floating next to me Fill it with entanglements I have yet to see There's a cold When you know your name’s been called When a visionary picture tells you We should find the time Maybe now Maybe now We can finally be allowed They built us underwater, bound So maybe now Maybe now We can finally turn around And bubble up from underground Well maybe now we will Maybe now Maybe now you will Maybe now Innocent Can’t you tell Waiting on the dial You didn’t lack any substance You didn’t go to trial Maybe now You’ll be fine This diving bell has so much time But will you even hear the chime Well maybe now you will …

I loved a rock like only a fool Loved it and do what you usually do And god love you too I love you goodnight When I am a prince get out my sight How did I say the things that I said Time to get up I’m going to bed And I’m rolling rocks all of my life And I hate coming down every night And I aint saying I’ve got things on my mind We got holidays in every town on the way where they’re just Hanging around on a solitary whim No I ain’t that kinda kin No I ain’t that kind of kin Well I’ve never seen the same ceiling twice And I cannot seem to memorialize Slept on the truth and when I awoke I couldn’t even read anything that I wrote Bite down on your opinions I don’t know what you're getting into now I aint saying I’ve got things on my mind There's a hollow place in every being of my fiber that’s just Hanging around on your solitary whim No I ain’t that kind of dim No I ain’t that kind of dim No I never heard of them And I ain’t that kind of dim No I ain’t that kind of dim No I ain’t that kind of dim And I never heard of them No I ain’t that kind of kin

You ate the apple We sang along the way You were bound to carnival with the gods And you're okay I was waiting on the word Polyamory’s getting worse Among the herd The way behind Fell away from the top of my mind In this kind of maze The string is all unstrung And the downtown disco hours Have all begun You’re easy eyed In these empty apartments of mine In a way feel like a head in the driveway And you punch yourself in the face every day We are the people of the sun We are the emblem of the weekend just begun We ate the apples Sitting apart one day From a fold in the leaves of your heart Whispering, why decay? Don’t say it Don't relate at all I stopped waiting for the word Spread my diseases to the birds And roamed the earth

Everytime I think as though my eyes are getting better I begin to see the fruitlessness of it all Everytime I wake up, I can’t shake off all the problems If I could just see the accident of it all I began to look into the vacuum of the forest And I found the bodies that they never looked for at all In a permanent fall All the secrets of the dead And the whirlings in your head Are not my problem Tell me when you slip into another view of madness You’ll begin to sing to save your own supper You are part of a world Where there’s nothing left to take And the evidence is faked You’ll soon be honest Everytime I think as though the radio is screaming There’s a second date that plagues me for the night Everytime I get into an accident you’re driving Driving home the point, that there’s no point at all Where is it solved? All that lingers are mistakes All the milestones unbaked It’s not my problem Everytime you paint me as an accidental drowning Knowing very well, that you can’t swim at all Why’d you always call Every innocence a pearl? Flawed ellipses of the world The inherent rule of weight Is a maximal complaint But it’s not my problem

What’d you say Don’t fade away Don’t stay away Threw my flowers Off the towers Late at night And I’m just driving through Nothings wrong with you And you wanted to Send me flowers Living flowers Just one time Something in the back of your mind Something in the words that you hide Hundred little ribbons you tied Resting on her wrist I’d forgotten this The melodious Names of flowers Ancient towers And upstate drives If she make My heart ache Oh day breaks There be flowers Beautiful flowers On my flight Something in the back of your mind Something in the words that you hide Something in the back of your mind Something in the words that you hide Something in the back of your mind Something in the words that you hide Hundred little ribbons you tied Oh cascades Of yesterday When she made Every hour All other flowers Fade away

Where is the help desk I need to show I loved you I let you know And all of my time spent Searching the grounds Above you And far below The world like new We walked until You felt the tease You lost it in the leaves Where were The rain and the clouds I loved you You weren't alone And all of the days We napped on the moon Are gone now You should have known

Monk child Lazy eyes Dead times vandalize I’m on the case to catch you lovely lace When you name yourself for another Hands sewn Longing brace When you learn yourself from another You’re a cost I know Too much for this place You’re a cause now Faces they stop it all I don’t think so Places stalled in your mind They rule soft sentiment I’m amazed now Places stalled in your mind Bend your beliefs back You’re no police mack Arizona is a lonely place When you see yourself with another Jury’s out Long delays But you know they know you another You’re the price I want Too much for this place You're a cause I want Plain old fools hanging out I’m all takers There’s some storm in your eyes Patient soul hand me downs I’m all takers There’s some storm in your eyes

about

Springwild Atlanta, Georgia

Springwild is the musical alias of Colin Arnstein, former front of Atlanta’s art-noise rock outfit Untied States. After over a decade of making cerebral electric chaos with the band, Arnstein as Springwild is more grounded, stripped-down and emotionally direct. He still flirts with an off-kilter avant-punk aesthetic, but Springwild plays more from the gut than from the head. ... more
