lyrics

get yourself together you've been hanging by a thread and there is
no use pretending, no use singing for the dead
we are the gold filling in the rotten tooth is man
the golden stacks of cash that line the train car coming loose

now that you've found it, you'll know it's not what you had wanted
but when you are without it, you'll stop at nothing till you've found it, hound it

don't pass me by, don't look me head on
sit down and relax, we will bloom and be gone
i'll give you a wink and send you away
from ticking bombs who tell you not to pray

write me a symphony of gold that i can hang on my
wall above the fireplace that burns my failed notations like
scores of molten children twist and squirm above the flame that rises
high above the rooftops where the whole town can he me mourn and sing:

now that i've found it i know it's not what i had wanted
but I can't shake it off
it follows me, it's become me, it is my shadow.

about

Telyscopes Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

"Since 2012, Telyscopes has molted through one reinvention after another--shedding layers of lo-fi psychedelia, chamber pop, jazz, and electronica like cocoons as the project grows more legs, prettier wings, or sharper mandibles. The lifeblood remains the same: offbeat lyrics and striking melodies. Often ingenious--never typical."
