Can't reach not one exit They keep freezing time on me All I have is one instant To become a stranger again oh me oh my oh man both my heads in the sand some lose and some pretend all rats are eating up this trend Bumped forehead Out of luck Get dressed or Drink too much Threw all the Dice I had Scraped my knee On your concrete judgement Too much drunks in this tent Too much entitlement One animal’s out of place Alien, alienate Bumped forehead Out of luck Get dressed or Drink too much Threw all the Dice I had Scraped my knee On your concrete judgement

Call some dumb bluff Can you read me We're fencing And when the rain stops falling I think we found a calling And when our backs are breaking There's no more time to waste here The world is dying i just want to feel love, so let's The season’s right and there’s an antelope in my bed The world is dying i just want to feel love, so let's Come up Get on Get off Times are rough It’s a real thing Completing The world is dying i just want to feel love, so let's My fever’s high, there’s a soprano in my head Here, wait, call out my ways And when the rain stops falling I think we found a calling And when our backs are breaking There's no more time to waste here As honest as I can be The world is dying i just want to feel love, so let's My fever’s high, there’s a soprano in my head Here, wait, call out my ways Please, wait, I have better days

Treasure 03:16
lyrics

All aboard the rock star confinement Arms and legs are stuck in your contrapment Nothing’s good in all your instability Every bit a siren as alarming Something in your eyes, oh no A solemnness inside? oh no A self-constructed mind? Oh no You can’t turn inside out, oh no No treasure to be found Stand out from the other monsters Rearrange your chance encounters Something in your eyes, oh no A solemnness inside? oh no A self-constructed mind? Oh no You can’t turn inside out, oh no No treasure to be found

Gee 03:32
lyrics

Can't break the undertow With our voices underscored And when the other falls Remember how you were sore And when you can't follow That's when you've become hollow Can't make it after all I've got some ghosts to call I'm not too cynical To make fun of the hopeful And then you take a shovel And dig yourself a hole Nihilism, overdid your understatements Viciously recycled Apparitions underneath the mud I can't see it I'm a cynical man

Labrador 05:11
lyrics

Open the curtains wide and let the sunshine in again and light up our lives and highlight our obscurity I’m right next to you The power of invisibility (i won i won i won) Dissolve into the room You’ll never even get close to me (i won i won i won) Another dog in love Another man in cuffs You’ve got a thought to spare? Well just leave it anywhere Hours where I’m to blame Years, I’m still the same The cloaked and daggered goon The power of invisibility (i won I won I won) A star behind the moon You’ll never even catch hold of me (i won I won I won) Step into the glow Reflex too slow Eyes cold, lay low Learn how to smoke Find words to say Quit while you’re halfway Try to happen upon the one you just can’t shake The sound of falling

Dear, after all, to me Might as well forget everything, forget everything Can't we be the carnivores we were before Worlds seem miles and miles and miles away behind closed doors Can’t we fly away somewhere, can’t we just Cuz words don’t feel half as good as you, when you’re around Push you around, shake my head Aren’t we a pair, aren’t we a pair Can't we go back to before, young carnivores Worlds seem miles and miles and miles away behind closed doors Can’t we fly away somewhere, can’t we just Cuz words don’t feel half as good as you, when you’re around Appealing, appealing to the ministry To reel me in, reel me in some chemistry Appealing to the ministry To reel me in some chemistry Can't we be the carnivores we were before Worlds seem miles and miles and miles away behind closed doors Can’t we fly away somewhere, can’t we just Cuz words don’t feel half as good as you, when you’re around Can't we go back to before, young carnivores Worlds seem miles and miles and miles away behind closed doors Can’t we fly away somewhere, can’t we just Cuz words don’t feel half as good as you, when you’re around

A push as a pull, is that your language? But you’re taller than I’ll ever be Head is not halfway over heels Or is love in the knees? Try to speak a language, try to speak a language I’m nosy but I can pretend I’m putting in the work, I’m putting in the work I’m lazy but I can pretend ooh, the rest is words, what a man’s are worth A push as a pull, is that your language? But you’re taller than I’ll ever be Try to speak a language, try to speak a language I’m nosy but I can pretend ooh, the rest is words, what a man’s are worth ooh, the rest is noise in a vaccuum world Try to speak a language, try to speak a language I’m nosy but I can pretend I’m putting in the work, I’m putting in the work I’m lazy but I can pretend ooh, the rest is words, what a man’s are worth ooh, the rest is noise in a vaccuum world ooh, who’s left? In the past I would’ve been first

Calm and sweet Can't wait, another tease Colder streets Can't wait forever on skis I long so much, for your summer Some of us sleep And some of us are scared to see Back to the womb We’re born to shrink I long so much, for your summer

Money you’re a nuisance Looking at me funny Looking for a fight Looking for a fight Money is a nuisance Money’s always tight Looking for a fight Looking for a fight Teeth grind Need hide Now I am a snail Now I’m made of slime Now I am just right Now I am just right Now I am a snail Taking my sweet time Now I am just right Now I am just right Real slime Slip up

Cold War Stills 07:05
lyrics

There is an animal With antlers and one feather The littlest wings and faces three and counting Whoever is the cannibal Will save us all the same Can you think of a way to keep the wolves at bay But can you love like a mother Can you make forgiving sounds Turn this thing counterclockwise Say everything will be just fine Or will we float like a shipwreck So much to be misguided by Someday they will excavate us And wonder how we breathed underground Now are you indescribable Or is there just nothing to say You’re rudderless, free of sound A little goes a long way, that’s what you tell yourself You’ve been captaining a lifeboat, like everything depends It's in your interaction, to barely stay adrift You're reading the script, but you miscast the self But can you love like a father On second thought, that’s all we can We’ll commandeer this elevator Cuz we’re the kings of ups and downs Now your vital signs are synthetic I think you took the wrong way down We’re animals posed as soldiers Just get some feet back on the ground

about

Filibuster is a ragtag collection of classical, avant-garde, jazz, punk and metal musicians, dedicated to anything that falls under the common denominator of pretty noise. Their sound is situated somewhere in the middle of 80’s and 90’s guitar music, combining the tendency of post-punk/noise pioneers to break form and alt-rock/shoegaze’s slacker philosophy to just play songs and immerse themselves into a raw guitar sound. With moody, introspective songwriting and mellow but frantic riffing, the result is a kind of bipolar, nostalgic-fatalistic noisepop. Designed to comfort and annoy, push and drag.
