about

As a kid, I was fascinated by the maps of the world that were made before Columbus…remember? The flat world and flat ocean, where the sea just ends in a giant waterfall. And there be monsters. Still, that didn’t stop the great explorers: Columbus, Cortez, Magellan, Lewis and Clark. Stan and I have always been drawn to themes of great adventure and exploration. As we begin a Sundogs album, we know that there will be at least a year of work ahead, and a million decisions and questions with precious little roadmap to follow beyond keeping our wits in the moment and following our instincts. Making great music is always the stuff of great adventure. Great risk. Great reward.

lyrics

Castle
by Jed Moffitt

There is a castle over the water
A rumor of an edge to the world
A waterfall that will swallow you whole
Shatter your mind, and devour your soul

A gyre of destruction where the monsters play
A churning abyss to siphon you away
Over the rim, dangling below
Between everything you believe, and everything that you know

You cannot storm the castle without swimming the moat
No treading water, no keeping yourself afloat
You can try to find an empty bottle, and write yourself a message in time
But you cannot storm the castle unless you cross a fire in line

Navigating the chasm of risk reward
Seems there’s always one more leap of faith
Some eye of the needle, some broken accord

(Guitar Solo)

Columbus was my brother
Cortez was my friend
Adventure is my direction
Suffering is my trend

Sirens are calling, from over the sea
Engaging my attention indefinitely
Gotta weigh anchor at the end of the day
Abandon the castle
I wouldn’t live there anyway

You cannot storm the castle without swimming the moat
No treading water, no keeping yourself afloat
You can try to find an empty bottle, and write yourself a message in time
But you cannot storm the castle, unless you cross a fire…

You cannot storm the castle
You cannot storm the castle
You cannot storm the castle
