More Than Five Million
from This Came First by Wiping Out Thousands
lyrics
For years I’ve wondered why
We’ve let be what we have seen.
The Gods’, the Gods’ eyes,
We’re not hallucinating.
For years I’ve trusted rain,
The aging patterns of the skies,
But all we have to gain is untrue denial.
Creaking wind through velvet lips,
Melted, warm and stripped skin.
Written threats are in the sand,
More than five million.
Deeper than the surface,
Their eyes are sinking in,
Staining lights with shadows
They’re more than five million.
We’ve let be what we have seen.
The Gods’, the Gods’ eyes,
We’re not hallucinating.
For years I’ve trusted rain,
The aging patterns of the skies,
But all we have to gain is untrue denial.
Creaking wind through velvet lips,
Melted, warm and stripped skin.
Written threats are in the sand,
More than five million.
Deeper than the surface,
Their eyes are sinking in,
Staining lights with shadows
They’re more than five million.

about
Wiping Out Thousands Minneapolis, Minnesota
WoT derives it's name from the Alvin Toffler novel "Future Shock."
Like a tidal wave
consuming a densely-populated island of sentient robots, Wiping out Thousands’ brand of electro - equal parts abrasive and gorgeous - reaches out from their home base of Minneapolis to the far corners of the grimy neon futurescape of tomorrow.

Just listened the material. Simply beautiful, like a story told by a good friend. Has some irreverent, black humor that is delicious. Great album Jeremy. Cheers from Queretaro (central Mexico)
