lyrics
whisper:
doomsday, it was wednesday
and wednesday was the end
(repeat)
voice:
Doomsday was Wednesday
Wednesday was the end.
(repeat)
(music)
voice:
Surprising everyone,
Who had planned
Their Thursdays
From dawn to setting Sun.
Who had planted flower seeds
All along the lane,
Who had keenly listened
To the news forecasting rain.
It surprised the Village Mayor
Who had planned to run again.
But, oh well
Wednesday was the end.
chorus:
Doomsday was Wednesday
voice:
When all grief came to a stop!
(music)
voice:
We prayed all day Sunday
For things to turn around.
Shouted to heaven,
Not sure that they heard a sound.
Voices said "It's just beginning,
There's light out there",
Not knowing Wednesday was Doomsday.
voice & chorus:
We marched against wars
And poisoning of the Earth.
We sent out Facebooks
And Tweeted about a birth.
We prayed all day, Sunday
For things to turn around...
Sunday...
Sunday, we prayed all day.
Sunday, we prayed all day.
Sunday, we prayed all day.
voice:
A voice said, "It's only the beginning,
There's light around the bend".
Oblivious of Wednesday
whisper:
for wednesday was the end.

This heady trio cranks out driving, electronic-tinged power jazz. It's a raucous party that's a bit free and a touch punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 20, 2015
On “Spirit Breeze,” Dylan Gilbert starts from folk roots, but gradually adorns his songs with rich textural elements. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 19, 2022
Portland shoegaze that plays, as the best representatives of the genre do, with huge, hollow atmosphere against intimate observations. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 23, 2016
