Typhoon - "Summer Home"

From the EP 'A New Kind Of House' (2011) • Pay what you want http://tndr.lv/1FvyMHE

I promised you I'm never giving up,
Never giving up, never giving up,
I won't give in
But now that my body's giving up,
My legs are giving out my head is throwing up its hands
It's asking
Can we wait for the summer again?
Can we hold out for summer again?
Will we ever be whole again?
My old house, my childhood's tomb
It is a failing light, but it will come back soon
A candle burns in your old room
And before it goes out, I swear I will find you
My little sister, I was two,
The year that you were born and ben came after you
We all three shared gentle youth
Our mother combed our hair, our father cleaned our wounds
Then a small thing happened, or sunk its tooth
And i was left behind, in different shapes you move
In my peripheral sight I reach out for you
But when I turn my head I'm in an empty room
A faceless clock, the hands unmoved
But for a layer of dust, a cobweb or two
In a broken mirror I see my broken truths
Now when I comb my hair, I pull the gray ones loose
My old house, my childhood's tomb
It is a failing light, but it will come back soon
In the backyard, birds, a dogwood blooms
I will come back home, I will wait for you
I will wait for the summer
I will hold out for summer
I will wait, there's a promise­land
In every man's heart
There is a summer.

The eleven-piece Portland, Oregon, supergroup is both wild and tightly structured, punk and symphonic. It begins with frontman Kyle Morton, whose significant battles with illness have left him at times struggling with meaning. “You can consider it one very bewildered man’s attempt to explain the universe, to himself, in the language of bewilderment,” he says of Typhoon’s music. Typhoon’s debut Tender Loving Empire full-length, Hunger and Thirst, is a jaw-dropping concept album that fuses folk forms with classical elements and occasional outbursts of metal. Follow-up EP A New Kind Of House features the hit song “The Honest Truth,” which placed third on Paste’s list of the 50 Best Songs of 2011.
