on an island there’s no one you can lie to, no truth to be challenged, except to yourself
on an island there’s no one to account for, no one to look out for, except for yourself
on an island there’s a beach you can sleep on, but no one to teach you, except for yourself
when you left, I didn’t know (you’d still be gone) after all these years I wonder why it took so long
you’re my island, my fault to look out for, my reason to opt for, accepting myself
you’re my island, surrounded by water, I cannot breathe here, no I cannot breathe here
you’re my island, despite lack of contact, there’s nobody to listen, except for myself
when you left, I didn’t know (you’d still be gone) after all these years I wonder why it took so long

HIGHLY LIKELY
they’re coming for you, they’re coming for me, the defecation of the paparazzi
a hint of truth metastasized, first you doubt, then you wonder why
it’s high, highly likely, it’s high, highly likely
a little late, a little dry, a little speculation leads you into a crime
call it crazy, but they’re no fools, even skeptics read the headlines
it’s high, highly likely, it’s high, highly likely

WIND IN YOUR SAILS
woman on the moon sings to me
king of the mountain lives in dreams
so down with the ship we go, out with the undertow
fire is burnin’ at the root of our loyalties
but when it rains, I feel
wind in your sails, and you see
look in my eyes, feel my weight
look in my heart, see my patience baby

ACHING BONES
one o’clock in the morning, too much on my mind
last splash of reception, haunts me all the time
he gave all that she had, she had all that he gave
like an east coast man, with a west coast son
she’s coming home, the beat goes on and on, aching bones
a case for adventure, I’m always up for a cause
he asks for redemption, we’ll sing him a song
he gave all that she had, she had all that he gave
like an east coast man, with a west coast son
she’s coming home, the beat goes on and on, aching bones

ALWAYS WANTING MORE
I try to do what I can, yeah, I like to give it away
first one in the morning, then two always wanting more
if I tell you a secret, I know you’ll give it away
I’ll always remember what you, what you said to me
calm down your disappointment, come around and see my view
glide out on to California, find that feeling once again
we’re all a little bit lonely, wear our hearts on our sleeves
but your expectations, leave you, always wanting more
if I tell you a secret, I know you’ll give it away
I’ll always remember, what you what you said to me
calm down your disappointment, come around and see my view
glide out on to California, find that feeling once again

The Recyclists Oakland, California
Founded some time ago, but just recently discovered, The Recyclists groove is location based. Their sound leads you down the west coast of a grand land mass, near a giant ocean, on a blue ball in a black ocean, somewhere in time. They are driven by a love of horn lines, and a grand desire to funk it up. ... more
