Forest for the Trees Lyrics


All you wanna be is insane
Wishing you were more than just plain
And when you try you try too hard it comes off fakeMany times I wanted to say
Plastic people like you will break
And soon enough it caught up and you went awayAnd if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amends
And if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amendsYou like it when you make people wait
It's the only time you're calling the plays
Controlling nothing makes you execrateEverybody knows you're in pain
We all know it stems from the shame
Because your actions called for a drastic fall from graceAnd if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amends
And if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amendsYou suck up life like you're a needle
Sticking in a vein for life
Keep up appearances when needed
You're used to changing overnightI always wondered if you saw

What the rest of us could see
Every day's a final straw
Can't see the forest for the treesCan't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the treesCan't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the treesCan't see the forest for the trees
Can't see the forest for the trees
The trees, the trees, the trees, the treesAnd if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amends
And if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amendsAnd if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amends
And if I never see you again
It'll be too soon to make amends

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Organic Electronic Space Music for the Heart, Mind and Soul

"Binary Scenes" is the debut release by San Francisco Bay Area electronic artist, Atomic Skunk. Atomic Skunk's music features "artful melodies with cinematic moodiness" and has been described as "Very meditative" and "Zen-like" with some "chaotic and dark elements/rhythms." The album, Binary Scenes was recorded entirely with Ableton Live in Marin County, California and features 8 fresh and original tracks that "force a headspace of chill and peacefulness." "Binary Scenes" is available now for streaming and online purchase in a wide variety of high quality formats at http://www.atomicskunk.com.

San Francisco Bay Area based electronic musician, Rich Brodsky aka Atomic Skunk, weaves together ambient field recordings, lush pads, and organic acoustic instruments with high-tech arpeggiated synths, glitchy, chaotic rhythms, and haunting melodies to create a unique psychedelic ambient soundscape.

Although he played in traditional western rock bands for many years, Rich has always leaned towards the deconstruction of traditional forms. He has studied non-western music such as Indonesian Gamelan, Indian Ragas, and African drumming and counts these along with ambient artists, The Orb and The Future Sound of London as well as the legendary Hearts of Space radio show as some of his strongest influences.

In 2008, Rich began composing and recording his own ambient electronic music, using an amazing piece of software called Ableton Live. Live's non-linear approach to music composition opened up a world of creative possibilities that led to the first Atomic Skunk creations. In early 2009, Rich released his first eight compositions as Atomic Skunk for his debut album, Binary Scenes.
