about

An homage to surreal artist Leonora Carrington, inspired by her surreal life, the rich imagery of her art, and the feminine focus of her wandering kaleidoscope mind.

lyrics

(Verse)

Excuse this voice
I've got a cough
I've lived rough
Since we broke off

Ten years
It went by so fast
Got to take more pictures
And make it last

In the half-life of
our memories
nothing was just what it seems
Except in dreams, their fading fast
As details fade, abstract remains

Still remember when
You fell apart
The nuns, they could not
Still your heart

The quiet wild fury
in your eyes
As the tranquilizers
Stilled your mind

In the half-life of
our memories
nothing was just what it seems
Except in dreams, their fading fast
As details fade, abstract remains

(Chorus)

Time and time and time again
I think about what might have been
In the silent garden of my mind
Try to leave my past behind

(Bridge)

Dawn breaks at the moment,
when nothing else moves
In an instant of silence
Light dances for you

At edge of the moment,
The edge of the dark
Faster than silence
We think with our hearts

(Verse)

Hyena shows up
For a Madrigal dinner
Disguised as a maiden
The guest list arrives

Princess escapes
She half-horse but a lady
Gallops and dances
Breaks into full-stride

As this full moon shines down
On this Spanish oasis
Our hearts beat in rhythm
The earth seems to sigh

(Chorus)

Time and time and time again
I think about what might have been
In the silent garden of my mind
Try to leave my past behind

The Plagiarists started as an evolving group of friends. The current line-up gelled in the Fall of 2019, just as we fell for the blank slate of writing and recording. We hope you enjoy our music and that these tunes fill your heart with a little joy and set your mind adrift to wander! ... more
