Description
This song was originally intended to be our entry into LIOLI #4. It's a little late, but we're excited to be posting it now. Thanks again to chikoppi (and bud). We've actually gotten the last three songs for our album from LIOLI challenges.

Lyrics
Water rushing over stone,
surface splits,
runs in rivulets,
breaks the banks,
charges after me.
Today I drown.
Floating free (floating free).
Earth wind and fire,
they all conspire,
to tear me down
and leave me burning.
Paper cranes for nuclear war,
take the pills,
forget what crying's for.
Wind's so cold,
but blows a broken pinwheel.
Earth wind and fire,
they all conspire,
to tear me down
and leave me burning.
Drinking salt for days,
the woman told me to.
Drinking salt for days, now,
the woman told me to.
You'll get better soon,
no matter what it does to you
You'll get better soon,
no matter what it does to you.
Wash away the dirt,
the stains around my eyes.
I am made of air and water.
Stone keeps me alive.
Alive.
Alive.
Earth wind and fire,
they all conspire,
to tear me down
and leave me burning.
Alive.
Alive.

jeez, the production on this is just ... off the scale ,,, the tambourines are zinging round my head.
Vocals - strong, sensual, at the centre of this musical whirlpool. Probably my fav of all Lisa has done (tho' they sound a bit dry, and kinda feel like they stick out a little in places).
the lyrics ... good, i'm so jealous. Inscruitable, poetic.
a dark distorted dance track - great work guys.
