look at me now i'm a starman into the sky with a barman look at me now i'm a starman into the sky look at this place it's a verse with so many places to go and each one is filled to the brim with so many things i'm still here writing grand gestures to you in my head i'm still here writing grand gestures to you hearing me sing it's a racket just do something with your time you know noone else will ever do it for you move on in place in illusion something to say some confusion nothing to hide you can feel your back on their eyes i'm still here writing grand gestures to you in my head i'm still here writing grand gestures to you i'm still here writing grand gestures to you in my head i'm still here writing grand gestures to you

it's enough to be in dreams nothing else is ever as it seems write it down before you go in an hour you will barely know know yourself and it will be push a finger through your hand to see waking up inside a dream spin in circles to avoid awaking, i'm baking in bedsheets and summer heat i'm afraid of what i'll do if i see you i'll be sure to act right unpredictability never really sure of what it makes me i'm aching to be you

moving on it all remains remote and cold you talk to me i'm still afraid there's empathy in what you say i talk to see years have passed you know my name i tend to ask were we the same you're still moving over me as i attempt to reconcile the past faces looming over me as i remember to resolve my past cycle out instil a frame say the words absolve the blame cut them down to make a point move your hands distill the point words are bouncing over me as i intend to focus on the past singular in entity the group dynamic can't escape the past i resolve to make a point it's clear to me we're living in the past you explain we'll both be free submerge yourself in living in the past instil a frame

Sacred 04:12
lyrics

the seeds you've sewn aren't growing empassing you on the end your feeble form is throwing words around like a tender look at me i'll be a passing light to you i'm nothing more the place you saw was sacred the people there are naked holding hands and simply letting on discreetly til' you see the night is passing by but when will it arise by and by I'm floating by oh my i think i see the peak of it

Readymade 05:26

so we content rely on sleep an opening too small to see his final work, surprisingly a game of chess suffice to see it's okay i know you'll be okay i know just look through and you'll find in this wonderland of mine wrote a book to explain how to set it up again and i hope you see what it meant to me and i hope you see what i want it to be i'll be gone readymades the nineteen thirty eight surrealist convention the large glass and bicycle wheel first papers the waterfall and the illuminating gas tiny versions of his works in a little brief case the final problem, white moves first

pt1 i've fallen asleep at the wheel i've fallen asleep on the job i've fallen asleep in the middle i've fallen asleep on the floor i'm going to see what is real i'm going to see what is not i'm going to see how i feel i'm going to see it a lot if i could see, if i could know where could i be pt2 i won't ask you again i will ask you to repeat the question i won't motion and then turn around and pretend to miss you sideways i come down to see the play pt3 if baby was my name throw my bottle on the floor look for answers in their faces just cry and ask for more if baby was my name i would read up on the facts and i'd tell them all i learned but they never listen they will never listen until you're listening and at that point it's all far too late they will never hear you they will never listen to what you said they will never listen until you're dead they will never listen until you're dead so stop asking questions that we don't know just stop asking questions until you know please stop asking questions you're making us feel slow we'll take off the helping wheels and let you go

about

Hello there. It has been a minute, i know. Lots has happened since i was last around, to both of us i am sure, but this is not the time or place or space. I recorded this album back home at my mother's house during the first of the lockdowns that took place in twenty twenty. It was a period of sunshine and thunderstorms and childhood/lack thereof. It was a very happy time in my life, in the top two or three at least. Despite all that was happening outside of myself i couldn't help but enjoy everything it brought me. Freedom in lieu of itself, or something along those lines. It was a last gasp of the life i had known as a child, before the great drain and before my own manouveurs took me away. I was incredibly happy. The weather felt like it changed daily, rain sun storm, unbearable-heat and rain again. I was very happy. I remember sheltering from the rain with my friends. I wrote and recorded these songs during that time, in my sisters old bedroom that is no more. It was my very first real album. When i left manchester to return to my prior life in brighton it slipped away, somewhere along itself. At some point i gave up on it. I forget when. Bigger and better things, i said. And did, i suppose. Nearly two years later i feel ready for it to come out, in much the same state i had left it in. A state i deemed unfinished at the time, deeply and perhaps mistakenly. I guess it is finished now. The next step in that very same process. You'll never be a kid again, kiddo.

I hope you enjoy listening to it, sincerely. It has been a long and strange path to be able to say such a thing. I love this album, and i am so very proud of both the me who made it and the me who is releasing it. We are probably more alike than we think. Love, ike xxx

Written and recorded by Ike Goldman at Clarendon Road, Zetland Road, and London Road between March and July 2020
Completed at Cwmdare Street, January 2022
