City Lights 05:14
lyrics

City Lights I’m thinking about a place in the back of my head Things from the past they come tumbling through Places I’ve been and faces I’ve seen The nights we slipped into the city lights City lights, city nights City lights, city nights The nights we slipped into the city lights I see it now, so much better than before These things are known to happen every day Some of us got lost, some of us git found The games we played in the city nights City lights, city nights City lights, city nights The games we played in the city nights The nights we slipped into the city lights he games we played in the city nights The nights we slipped into the city lights The games we played in the city nights City Lights 記憶の奥にあるところへ 行ったことある場所、見覚えある顔 街の明かりに溶け込んだ夜 City lights, city nights 今では明らかだ よくあることさ 消えたやつ、目覚めたやつ 夜の街の賭け事 City lights, city nights 街の明かりに溶け込んだ夜 夜の街の賭け事

Come Back 05:14
lyrics

Come Back (by Elizabeth Levett-Fortier) Up late, I can hear wing beats, Runway, waiting for you. Breathe deep, constant imagining. Come back safely to me. Outside rain is whispering, Warm clouds, miles of blue. My dreams, I can see everything. Sail home in your wooden shoe. Speak slowly, leaves in the wind. Your eyes, time to begin. Speak slowly, leaves in the wind. Your eyes, time to begin. Up late, trying to make sense of things. Stayed home, listening for you. Closed eyes, constant imagining. Sail home in your wooden shoe. Outside branches trembling, warm clouds, stones on the trail. In dreams so much more interesting. Count back the sum of these days. Speak slowly, leaves in the wind. Your eyes, time to begin. Speak slowly, leaves in the wind. Your eyes, time to begin. Come Back 夜がふけて、聞こえる羽ばたき 滑走路、君を待つ 深く息をして、常に想像 無事に帰って来て 外で雨のつぶやく 暖かい雲、広がる青空 私の夢、全てが見える 無事に帰って来て 葉は風の中ゆっくり囁く 始まりだ 夜がふける、物事を理解したい 家に残り、君を待つ 目を閉じて、常に想像 木靴に浮かび戻ってくれ 外で枝が揺れる 暖かい雲、道ばたの石ころ 夢の中ほもっと興味深い 日々を数える 葉は風の中ゆっくり囁く 始まりだ 外で雨のつぶやく 暖かい雲、広がる青空 私の夢、全てが見える 無事に帰って来て

House of Cards I don’t want to go fight your war I don’t want to go fight your war I don’t want to go fight your war I don’t want to go fight your war What’s the use in fighting You’re the wrong needs righting Keep the fires burning Keep the cauldrons churning Wring the beast and right it I don’t want to go build your wall I don’t want to go build your wall I don’t want to go build your wall I don’t want to go build your wall Tell me now what’s going on Tell me who’s side you’re on Who’s the one we’re fighting Who’s the wrong we’re righting Wring the beast and right it Wring the beast I don’t want to go fight your war I don’t want to go build your wall I don’t want to go fight your war I don’t want to go build your wallI I don’t want to go House of Cards おまえの戦争なんか戦わない 誰と戦ってるんだ 正すべきは誰だ 火を灯し、呪いをかける 悪魔を吊るし上げる おまえの壁なんか作らない 何が起きてるんだ どっちの味方なんだ 誰と戦ってるんだ 正すべきは誰だ

Time Has Come 04:56

Time Has Come I couldn’t stay for long, I’m just passing through But if you want me to stay for a while that’d be OK Don’t think of changing horses while the ride is good Don’t think twice when the road gets rough I’ve been running roundfor so long It may be good to rest my bones Time has come, for me to go back home Time has come, for me to go For me to go back home, back to you I wouldn’t stay too long, I’m just passing through But if I change my mind, will it be OK? Days are getting shorter, the light is getting dim The cold winds chill me to the bone I’ve got some tales to tell when i do unwind Find a place in the sun to spin my yarn Time has come, for me to go back home Time has come, for me to go For me to go back home, back to you Time Has Come 通りがかりなんで長く居れないよ でも少しの間だけなら居てあげる 抜群な時は馬は乗り換えない やばくなったら戸惑うな もう長い間走り続けてる のんびりするのも悪くは無いだろう 帰る時が訪れた 君の元に帰る時が 通りがかりなんで長く居ないよ でも気が変わったらいいかい 日は短くなる、明かりは暗くなっる 冷たい風は芯まで冷える 帰る時が時が訪れた 君の元に帰る時が

Time Is Running Out 06:06
lyrics

Time Is Running Out The game iss almost over The battle’s just begun Better run for cover No more fun in the sun Sea of people Season of our discontent Can you feel the ripple As we make our slow descent Time is running out Feelin’ down and out Time is running out Can you hear them shout Old man’s got a fever Old boot’s got no sole Once you pull the lever Can’t dig yourself out of the hole The devil’s in the parlor Theres sickness in the air The ships have left the harbor As pale shadows dance in the lair Time is running out Feelin’ down and out Time is running out Time Is Running Out ゲームはもうすぐ終わり、戦いは始まったばかり 避難しなければ、太陽の下ではもう遊べない 民衆の大群、不満の季節 波紋を感じるかい、降下しながら 時間が無い、絶望してる 時間が無い、叫び声は聞こえるかい おやじは熱中してる、俺は魂も残ってない スイッチを入れれば、逃げ場も無くなる 悪魔は背妻に、空気は腐ってる 船は出航した、暗い影が踊る中 時間が無い、絶望してる 時間が無い、叫び声は聞こえるかい

Demons of the Day 05:03
lyrics

Demons of the Day He ran in the rain, forgetting the pain Discovering the truth of drowning in youth Slighting his fears, remembering tears A halo of light in the shadow of night Floods and tides, come what may Wash them away, the demons of the day He ran in the rain, forgeting the pain Awash in the mist, the wind on his fist The straws were drawn, a white mare of dawn A flicker of light in the still of night Floods and tides, come what may Wash them away, the demons of the day Demons of the Day 雨の中を彼は走った、痛みを忘れて 思春に溺れ、真実を知り 恐怖を捨てて、涙を思い出し 夜の影に明るいヘイロー 洪水、大波、何が来れども 洗い流せ、この悪感を 雨の中を彼は走った、痛みを忘れて 霧に囲まれ、風に面と向かって 運命は帰らぬ、夜明けの白馬 夜の静けさに踊る光 洪水、大波、何が来れども 洗い流せ、この悪感を

about

Marcos and The Wild Machinations’ self-titled debut delivers six songs stretching across the spectrum of rock stylings past and present, penned by frontman Marcos Fernandes, heretofore better known as a percussionist/improviser. With able-bodied instrumental support , the tunes’ rich arrangements offer everything from rootsy Americana and radical reggae to sweeping space rock and raucous rave-ups. The players’ more experimental inclinations spice up the more traditional song forms abetting the narrative with welcome sonic surprises. The recording also well captures the band’s on stage spark and playfulness again informed by their improvisational leanings. And ample hooks promise to keep you coming back to it.
