lyrics

I’m taking shots into the field and nobody’s falling down
Everybody back home says I’m crazy because I’m out here on my own
But little do they know, little do they know, little do they know
That the sand is burning beneath our feet
and the sky is falling the sky is falling
So defend our women defend our children
from hands of strangers and foreign language
Well I’m still willing to stay in the cross-hairs of harms way

With a tune to whistle and a beat to dance to
A photograph and a camera angle
for the magazine on your bedside table
all the blood and guts of your friendly neighbor
Still we pretend to have, but it’s polka dots and plaid

I woke up a couple years older and everything looked the same
Rows of women and men, sitting blank faced in the sun
thinking about loving someone special that don’t love them
thinking about having something special that they can’t have
But little do they know, little do they know, little do they know

That the borders are lined with dirty bombs
and the cupboards hang with empty cans, with rusty hinges, rusty hinges
commercial anthems and bad decisions
They got problems that I can’t fix and I know I don’t know the half of it
but I’m still willing to stay in the cross-hairs of harms way

Oceanography Oakland, California

Oceanography is the solo project of Oakland-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Brian Kelly. He brings a unique pop sensibility to bittersweet songs of heartbreak, loss, and longing, recalling at times The War on Drugs, My Morning Jacket, and Damien Jurado. His literary eye for detail and deceptively powerful voice create moments of catharsis and beauty amid the bleak and mundane. ... more
