OVNI 03:27
lyrics
buy track
In my hungered state, in my new escape, from the drugs I use to live, I find my body in extreme relapse, I feel my new disease. In the strangers brain that’s been put in mine come the thoughts of difference, I find my mind go in extreme relapse, I feel my new disease. But in the molds you’ll find a nice surprise, in the molds you’ll find yourself.

Dame Vos 03:20

Dame la luna, dame el sol, pero yo se lo que quiero, lo que quiero es vos. Dame el cielo, dame el amor, pero no se lo que quiero, no se lo que soy.

Picture Frames 02:56
lyrics
buy track
I’ve ripped you from the picture frame, it’s sad but it had to be that way, ‘cause it’s been so long, and for so long it’s burned inside of my own face. I hung your picture in my mind, it held but faded much with time, ‘cause it’s been so long, and for so long it’s time you exited my mind. So go away now, I felt you burn inside of my own skin, and I know you got hands that burn like the pictured frame. I felt it go inside my mind, and I’ve already said too much for you.

Sleepy Feeling 03:36
lyrics
buy track
This sleepy feeling‘s coming back from yesterday, telling me that the whole world has gone astray. Everything without it’s comfort here is false and the whole real world is just dead and dull. When I’m headed down to sleep, here come those dreams, bringing: This sleepy feeling all the way from yesterday, telling me that the whole world has gone astray. When we don’t got it but we need it and it feels so wrong, when we don’t need it but we got it, it fills us up. But When I’m in the middle of a dream, I go back to sleep.

Swollen Pride (OH) 04:22
lyrics
buy track
Oh, with my severed hands, I will boast, take a stand. Mock your hypocrisy, and with your swollen pride, it will burn, take your life. Oh, with my angered soul, I will stalk, take a stand. Clench my appetite but with your knife, you will shield, and cut your hands. (So you’ve had enough of them?) No, ‘cause that’s just what you ask from them: everything and like ocean water, you do no returning.

A Train on Foam Railways 03:17
lyrics
buy track
Claim your spot in line because we took his life with our own arms. So come up, stand tall, but look away, this image shouldn’t be retained. Take from the depths of your brain, to the nearest heartbeat, anything you would have said. Oh what’s the use? Your stomach will give us anyway. But come with me and then we might find, what we should’ve done, what we could’ve done. So close your eyes and open your mind to the endless guilt that could’ve cleansed our words if pled by ignorance. So now that you’ve spilt, and now that I’ve filled this glass with old sins, it rings and it sings. The devil has come to take us to his place, but alone I will stay. So broken bruised, asleep at the noose, your body will hang and save myself from this grave. Police will find you, battered by guilt, regardless of what you have done. But my heart can’t erase the sins I have made, although no god could have seen, nobody but me, that murderous grin engraved in my head, it takes like the seconds, right till the death

Caterpillars 03:44
lyrics
buy track
As the hungered voice of my men screams out: “I am hungry and weak, and by reasons oblique, is my motivation driven and driving my feet” As everybody’s hunger seems sane, and everybody’s screams sound the same, I don’t know where we go, but time is so short. “Have the million voices calling not entertained your movement enough? We are the nations last hope at protecting our own” “No we are just a faction, just a celebration, caterpillars sent to entertain, so we entertain” “Just keep moving forward closer, because I don’t know where we go, but time is so short.” “We are just a means to a hideous group of men, caterpillars sent to entertain, so we entertain.”

Burning Oil 03:19
lyrics
buy track
We’re a million to one, can’t you see you civilian, I’ve written the future with arms. Apathy is my disease, yet you call It a symptom, step-by-step-by-step I’ll engulf your life. (Look out for yourself, can’t you see we got hands now? I’m not a condition, just a response to influence, step-by-step-by-step, I’ll engulf your life) So Come down here, we’ve got plenty left for you my dear, it’s burning oil, and it’s burning down into your veins, so just sell of all your contracts, just sell them away, your lives become a complex baby, Just sell off all sedation, just sell it away. (So come down here, we’ve got plenty left for you, its like burning oil, that is burning you too, so just come around, because I’ve said too much, just come down here, it’s for you”

Nada Mas 01:32

Tus ojos, tus ojos negros, hijos de la noche, la noche tan linda. Lindas carisias, me encoutro, me enredo entre tu pelo, tan bellos momentos. Te devoro, y me lleno de recuerdos, de nostro primer encoutro

Paradoxical Myth 02:45
lyrics
buy track
Well did you know Mother Mary‘s standing right here, telling us: Oh I’m your mother. And did you hear the silver plated, sedated line, telling us: blind your eyes. It’s these mobilized machines keeping us from our windows, it’s these people who say they understand. I’d find my own way, if not blurred by the system. We are here, but where are our souls? And well, if you don’t know, make sure you know.

Begging the Question 05:50
lyrics
buy track
So what of the earth, brought to see by cobalt eyes, the strange terrain of sound, the kindling waves and tides of unseen light? By the hunger of space we’re expanding this plane, layering image and touch and developing such invisible frames. Our senses they claim that we’ll find love in this place. But we could find a better thing to do with time, if not hardened by the way of light, and we could find a better way to live our lives if not hardened by the way of sound. So what of the masses, left tangled in waves and tides of light, break free of your shackles and open up to a world unfound. We can find a better way to fathom time, if not hardened by the way of light, and you could find a better way to live your life

Across 03:07
lyrics
buy track
I thought we said we’d start in spaces much of that affect to the bringing of, the birthing of, our parents and their virtues. But now we’re cut upon this spring that burns my hand in oxygen (come one now, don’t you think we’ve seen it all. I’ve been finding myself among shattered glass, and lacking are the pieces of you, they melted down as you jumped from quantum state, releasing yourself from the burden of truth. But with arms and with poise I’ll find a better way out, though clenched among the memories, your face it lingers, the remnants small pieces of faith, with time, and with birth, this influence will wane out.

about

The Foundation Of image

The Foundation Of Chula Vista, California

Derived from Tijuana, Mexico, The Foundation Of is an explosion of sounds formed in 2006. What could be technically considered a Jam band, The Foundation Of strives to create music not by writing it but rather by finding it within their hour long jam sessions. They have created a sort of ambient post-hardcore that melodically soothes the mind and rhythmically excites the body. ... more
