lyrics

THE RAVEN AND THE WHITE OWL

The dragonflies were twirling 'round near the river
When the raven and the white owl appeared
The moon was full and high

What happened to your people? Said the white owl
What happened to yours? Said the raven

All the tribes were on the warpath
And the wise owl and the wise raven couldn't help
But watch in sorrow slaughter and despair.
Elders did not understand
the dreams the white owl and the black raven sent to them
They watched in sorrow slaughter and despair.

What happened to your people? Said the white owl
What happened to yours? Said the raven

The old wisdom is gone
In a haze of whiskey
The old wisdom is gone
In the clatter of guns
Is gone...

What happened to your people? Said the white owl
What happened to yours? Said the raven

Nice little EP, great psych sound, and the song Reflections stands out for me. Really like that one. They also have a debut full length out wich is impeccable, so also get that one if you like this and don't own it yet. Surrealistic H. Sapiens

What a strong debut album packed with a bunch of great songs. Highly recommend to everyone who likes the modern take on this kind of late 60s psych-rock. Papa Jay (Radio Smorgasbord)
