First Breath 04:37
Blue sky I'd pay an amount to ride Over and through all the grey and white Not a holy sight, but a sunken one Open and into the burning sun Can I put my trust in you Am I right or am I just another fool Can I trust myself to you Been some time since the day I rectified my way It's not made for me but I know it's for you And there's time to make it right Loose time it's easy to override Sleepy-eyed dreams and I don't know why I'm awake inside, naked as I was First breath and into the depth Can I put my trust in you Am I right or am I just another fool Can I trust myself to you Been some time since the day I rectified my way It's not made for me but I know it's for you And there's time to make it right Can I put my trust in you Am I right or am I just another fool Can I trust myself to you Been some time since the day I rectified my way It's not made for me but I know it's for you And there's time to make it right All right

The Well 03:26
Said the broken stone I am my own companion To the aching bone weighed down by his two feet Pour into the mold, or keep it as a canyon Leave it to the sky to cry He sits all alone Wandering his frustration Leads him to the hole where no one's jumping in I could tell him so, but I know that he's not listening So I pushed him over into it Falling to his death He screams out loud "I have got nothing left" Do your worst and keep it all on me Makes no sense to live if I'm not free Said the broken stone I am my own companion To the aching bone weighed down by his two feet Pour into the mold, or keep it as a canyon Leave it to the sky to cry Feeling guilty I go back in arms to meet her She is waiting there for all of us to see So it keeps me up To know I'll sleep in later Dreaming of a sharp tonality

Jitterbug 03:55
Jitterbug into my brain While your soul is sky high I'm sleeping in my bed Dreaming up some bad news instead I want to feel the music too now there's no room for my boom-boom Wake me up and shape up my game You couldn't tell me what you told my girl Was it too much to say? Jitterbug into my heart Oh woe is me I knew right from the start You had no heart Rafucojibepi can't you see I'm in love Of course you can't you only love yourself, yourself And that's fine but stop running train on me I don't care that it's not fair I care to make sure you see Your mode of possession is wrong to me Don't believe in creed got no religion to shame So if I prayed to God I'd pray every goddamn day That my hands cared to feel the music from inside my head May be because I'm under fed I only feed on the root and the seed In my pot of creation you are the weed

No One 05:00
If I had to kill right now What would I use I'm not just another thing Made for your abuse I'd probably take this axe in hand Put it to good use Slam it right in your back And keep you guessing who Ah No one knows Ah No one knows If I had to kill right now What would I use I was never just another thing Made for your abuse It doesn't take a rotting vein To see what we've come to The chaos of an uphill race That no one wants to lose Ah No one knows Ah No one knows Ah No one knows Ah So life goes

about

A few unreleased tracks from the making of the Sweaty Palms' third album. Since it wasn't meant to be, these demos are the last bits of a memorable experience. I'm pretty sure they were recorded on a portable mixer we all referred to as the "White Shit".

Ironically, the album was to be called "Unity".

Please enjoy, and follow the Eric Io artist page for more musical creations.
