Through The Trees Pt. 2歌曲歌词:
misunderstood and disillusioned
i go on describing this place
and the way it feels to live and die
the natural world and whatever else it’s called
i drive in and out of town
seeing no edge, breathing sky
and it’s hard to describe
without seeming absurd
i know no there’s no other world
mountains and websites
dark smoke fills the air
some from the fire in my house
some from me driving around
i could see the lights of town
through the trees on the ridge
on my way home in the dark
i meant all my songs not as a picture of the woods
but just to remind myself
that i briefly live
the gleaming stone of the moon in the sky at noon
there is no other world
and there has never been
i still walk living sleeping
life in the real world of clouds
clawing for meaning
still when i see branches in the wind
the tumultuous place where i live
calls out, revealing
can you see the river in the branches
and know that it means you will die
and that peace is returning?
can you find a wildness in your body
and walk through the store after work
holding it high?
i’ve held aloft some delusions
from now on i will be perfectly clear
there’s no part of the world more meaningful
and raw impermanence echoes in the sky
there is neither knowing
a constant sound in your ears
end and beginning
a pile of brush
the fog on the hill
standing in the parking lot, squinting

Mount Eerie简介:
小简介
Mount Eerie is an Anacortes, Washington-based band fronted by Phil Elverum. Elverum is the principal member of the band, but he has collaborated with many other musicians on his records.
History
Following the release of The Microphones’ Mount Eerie album, Phil Elverum announced that he would no longer use the Microphones moniker, opting instead to record under the name Mount Eerie, after the area in Anacortes, Washington called Mount Erie. In an interview with CITR-FM’s Discorder in September 2003, Elverum gave his reasons for this change: “Mount Eerie is a new project. The Microphones was completed, or at least at a good stopping point. I did it because I am ready for new things. I am new.”[1]
Shortly after this announcement, Live in Japan, recorded during three days during Elverum’s tour in Japan in 2003, was released by K Records. Despite the fact that the album contained all new material, the album was credited to ‘The Microphones’. The quotation marks contained in the release are credited to the fact that Phil Elverum considered this to neither be a Microphones project, nor a Mount Eerie release.

Elverum has also created a 3-LP recording of Mount Eerie titled Live in Copenhagen, released by Burnt Toast Vinyl in late 2004. The first Mount Eerie studio album was “No Flashlight” Songs of the Fulfilled Night, released on Elverum’s own label, P.W. Elverum & Sun, Ltd. at What the Heck Fest in Anacortes, WA on July 16, 2005 and commercially released on August 16, 2005. Released domestically on vinyl LP (although the LP version contained a copy of the CD), the album contained an extremely large sheet of paper containing track-by-track liner notes and pictures.
July 2007 marked the release of another ambitious project, Mount Eerie pts. 6 & 7 a 132-page, hardcover coffee-table book of his photography, packaged with a 10″ record. This book is the first large-scale publication of his photography, and possibly presents closure to the Mount Eerie song cycle started in the album Mount Eerie by the now-defunct Microphones.
