Seekers
By Swallow Key
Running under the sun we get spun
And speak in tongues with subtlety
Through the valley’s we zoom
Eating flowers in bloom
Like a coyote playing tricks on me
Maybe you could stay
Maybe we could play
And it would be beautiful
If we could survive these suckers would know
Keeping them reaching for us
If you ever get to Heaven, don’t stop for me
Tell us what you see there
Don’t ever stop for nothing
Don’t ever stop for no one
Don’t even stop for me
Seekers, olé
I don’t mind roaming
Satellite roving
Seekers, olé
Sneaking in through the window
Sifting for hidden things
Seeking for secrets
Hidden inside caves and in the rain
Someday we’ll say we found a way
Oh, it would be beautiful
If we can survive
These suckers would know
Keeping them reaching for us
Motherfuckers be reaching for us
Seekers, olé
I don’t mind roaming
Satellite roving
Seekers, olé
If you ever get to Heaven, don’t stop for me
Tell us what you see there
Don’t ever stop for nothing
Don’t ever stop for no one
Don’t even stop for me

Hiwae Waehi
By Swallow Key
We light a fire, we’re getting higher
Dare to aspire another sun-soaked blue day
Now that I can feel love raining from above
Lessons I’ve learned of ducking beneath these big waves
Light as a feather, changing like weather
Pay no mind to the tether
Pay no mind to what sheep may say
Get out my head
Get off my highroad
Get off our land
Get off our people, off their fruits
And you can keep your monkey suit
They tail our hide, Hiwae Waehi
We ride out high, Hiwae Waehi
Get out my head
Get off my highroad
Get off our land
Get off our people, off their fruits
And you can keep your monkey suit
We ride out high, Hiwae Waehi
Like …
Two souls on the run into the sun
We ride out high, Hiwae Waehi

Any Which Way
By Swallow Key
Hi, I’m shy
I scan for exit signs
In case we have to hide
Like a polar magnet
Scene grows stagnant
What do you know?
I’m ready to go
I don’t look back or down
Any which way the wind blows, I go
Any which way the wind blows, I go
Wherever I please
I’m like a leaf in Autumn snow
Spreading my wings, I soar
Any which way the wind blows
I go where I want to
Any which way
Eyes all black
From running with my pack
The violent wolves of love
Hey pup, cover your tracks up
Follow the rapid's edge
Any which way the wind blows, I go
Any which way the wind blows, I go
I’m like a leaf in Autumn snow
Spreading my wings, I soar
Any which way the wind blows
I go where I want to

The Sun Don’t Sleep, Man
By Swallow Key
Here come the sunshine
Another day
We hope to ghost by invisibly
She’s such a sun child
Me, in the shade
She’s feeling sublime
Me, I’m ok, well...
Here I come
Sneaking in
When the rays they come
Peaking in
And...
She is the sunshine
Me, I’m the shade
Ok …
Here come the sunshine
Another day
Here come the sunshine
Another day in paradise
Who needs a pillow?
Don’t want to sleep
I’m on the real yo
The sun don’t sleep, man
So why should we
Here come the sunshine
Another day
Here come the sunshine
Another day in paradise
Who needs a pillow?
Don’t want to sleep
I’m on the real yo
The sun don’t sleep, man
So why should we

Salem Sweaters
By Swallow Key
We straddle the line
The slope inclines
On a road without a sign
We’re standing in line
Slave to the grind
Feels like it’s designed that way
Like planets align
So too does the mind
Only place we can unwind
Is all inside the mind
No genie behind
Human design
Why can’t they just be kind?
But no, they say
We’re going where the sun won’t shine
Leaving with the secret in the back of our mind
Cast out witches
What a line!
Sasha took the drug train
And now we’re feeling better
Candy’s in the sex trade
She rock a scarlet letter
Everybody gets played
We answer to the debtor
Hunted like them witches
In the Salem sweaters
Worked into the dirt and then we do it again
Worked into the dirt and then we do it again
We’re worked into the dirt and still we do it again
So...
I say we pay these motherfuckers
What we owe these motherfuckers
Which is...
Nada, nein, nothing, nada, nu-uh, now way, not it
Nana-nana boo boo...
Haha!
What a line …
Going where the sun won’t shine
Leaving with the secret in the back of our mind
Cast out witches
What a line!
We’ll pay what we owe
Which is...
Nada, nein, nothing, nada, nu-uh, no way, not it
Nana-nana boo boo...
Haha!

Meowonomy
By Swallow Key
Wow, on my brow when you prowl
Whoa I show you how the cat meow
I long so bad, heart’s in clad
Whoa I guess that’s why my hats are mad
I’m your feline from cloud nine
Whoa I’m euphoric when our spines align
Whoa bout to blow, overflow
Whoa I watch you sliding to and fro
You make the heavens fall to pieces
The pieces become like a puzzle for the story of us all
Under a parasol
We’re gonna watch it fall down
Wow, on my brow when you prowl
Whoa I show you how the cats meow
You make the heavens fall to pieces
I guess that’s just the story of us all
You make the heavens fall
Under a parasol
We’re gonna watch it fall down
