  • Ultra Limited Test Pressing For Charity
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    We've had a number of people ask about purchasing a test press of Absolutes. We have 1 that we're willing to part with, and we want to do something good with it.


    We're going to donate 100% of the purchase price (after payment processing fees) to Second Harvest Food Bank of San Jose.


    Second Harvest is a non-profit organization that distributes food to low-income families in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. More than half the people they serve are children or seniors. You can read more about the work that they do on their website: www.shfb.org/aboutus


    We set the price at $75, but if you want to purchase it for more, that's more money going to Second Harvest. Thank you!

lyrics

The reality is that I find the truly meaningful things are that which when I close my eyes do not go away.
There is a light in your eyes and your heart that braces me against any incoming storm.
Like in my dreams and memories it's still there even if only halfway remembered.
It lives in the back of my mind
As I struggle to give voice to words I cannot find.

There’s a light in your eyes
That should help me find my way.

When I’m lost and alone, no direction or hope.
The clouds block the stars and my compass is broke.

Just trying not to make the same mistakes I always make.
I'm afraid I won’t be there when you need me.
But there’s a light in your eyes
That should help me find my way.

When I’m lost and alone, and my passion is gone.
It's always the softest voice that finally reigns me in.
All of the worry and heartache will end, the future and past will blend.
That spiral starts to slow and my vision is clear again.
The mountains will one day be gone and the oceans will all be dry
The world will not know my name, even the Sun has to die.

Even the Sun has to die.

But there’s something that makes me stay.
A feeling I can’t explain. It leaves me to live in both a joyous and sad kind of way.
Though everything else gets replaced, my feelings will never change.
Next to the light in your eyes, even the Sun has to die.
