Waves will crash and ignite the shore Lights don’t shine here anymore Sun won’t rise where it do set Miles and miles of empty sand Just keeps calling my name Calling my name Keeps calling my name Calling my name Soul searching day or night Soul searching day or night Day or night Days will pass and escape my view And I’ll be left no thought of you Sun won’t rise where it do set Incase you needed a life check just keep calling my name Calling my name Keep calling my name Calling my name Soul searching day or night Soul searching day or night Soul searching day or night Soul searching day or night Day or night Day or night Day or night Day or night Soul searching day or night (Day or night) Soul searching day or night (Day or night) Soul searching day or night (Day or night) Soul searching day or night

Run wild and experience what this world has in store for you Tied up with all of this nonsense what else are you going to do Following the leader saying exactly what you ought to do What is all of this following really gonna prove to you And I think this tide is changing fast Don’t wait for your life to pass And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re misled Run wild and experience what this world has in store for you While you can still do just that without the hand coming down on you Following the leader saying exactly what you ought to do What is all of this following really gonna prove to you, to you And I think this tide is changing fast Don’t wait for your life to pass And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re misled And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re misled And I think this tide is changing fast Don’t wait for your life to pass And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re misled

Loaded Gun 04:56
Although everybody’s telling you Never stare at the sun Still there is this little part of you Wants to just for fun Oh, I am a loaded gun Oh, I’m a loaded gun I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun Baby I’m a loaded gun No I’m not surprised by what you do You’re always the one When a problem catches up with you You’d always run Oh, I am a loaded gun Oh, I’m a loaded gun I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun Baby I’m a loaded gun Although everybody’s telling you Never stare at the sun Still there is this little part of you Wants to just for fun Oh, I am a loaded gun Oh, I’m a loaded gun I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun Baby I’m a loaded gun

In the wake of the setting sun Reflect on what you’ve done Waves bombard the shoreline As the night surly does come Murmuring underneath No courage to confess Depleted of diligence Stand too close to the ledge Far too late to turn back What’s been said has been said We all reap what we have sewn Yet still we blame the path we chose Even given the light we’re shown Still choose the darkness on our own Murmuring underneath No courage to confess Depleted of diligence Stand too close to the ledge Far too late to turn back What’s been said has been said

I see you half the time I’d like Why must we walk different paths That end up in the same rut I believe you half the time you lie Why must we beat the same dead hoarse Looking for something different I see you half the time I’d like Why must we walk different paths That end up in the same rut

Runaway 03:38
Looks like the sands Have run out of time But you sit and wait for it to change it’s Mind (To change it’s) Mind (To change it’s) Back out the door That you came in Were you even ever really lost to begin With (To begin) With (To begin) (Wait) There’s no use to wait (late) Until it’s too late (Way) Go and run away (Way) Go and run away
7.
So why would you Try to care so much About what they think when it comes to who you are It comes to all in mysterious ways So when it comes don’t hesitate Don’t ever ask let it show you the way You’ll understand, you’ll understand Never let it get in the way Never let it harm (Never let it harm) Never let it get in the way Never let it harm Seek out the truth Only to close your eyes When you open up It’ll have already passed you by It comes to all in mysterious ways So when it comes don’t hesitate Don’t ever ask let it show you the way You’ll understand, you’ll understand Never let it get in the way Never let it harm (Never let it harm) Never let it get in the way Never let it harm Oh no don’t let it harm Oh no don’t let it harm Oh no don’t let it harm Anywhere you’d want to go I’d follow you down Whichever way you want to go I’d follow you down Down Down

Just Let Go 04:20
Take a breath And hold it in There’s no use to fight What you can’t win And I fall into your web Over analyze the ledge So let it go Let it take control Just Let it go Let it take control Just let it go When you come back To tell the tale No one will be able to relate to it all that well Oh well And I fall into your web Over analyze the ledge So let it go Let it take control Just Let it go Let it take control Just let it go

And the lonely sand dunes tears Fill up the setting sun And the lonely Sand Dune cries For all most everyone Until he fades away Until he fades away

about

Spring reverb douses sunburnt guitar leads accompanied by crooning vocals that flow across smooth chords like sand on a dune in The Groovy Nobodies second installment, Lonely Sand Dune.

Inspired by the sounds of 60's garage rock and psychedelia, Lonely Sand Dune is as warm an album as the name implies. Perfectly encapsulating the psychedelic sounds of summer. Including songs such as "Follow the Leader" which is about living your life to its full potential, and not blindly passing up all the opportunities that may come your way just in order to stay within the boundaries of comfort. The track "Dusk Reflection" describing the introspective, self reflective thoughts of someone watching the sun set. Concluding with the last four tracks seamlessly transition from one to the next, filled with instrumental improvisation fueled by emotions that carry each song forward. Ending the album with a slow, mellow song, as the hot summer day is swept behind in the wake of the night sky, and cool breeze. The self titled track "Lonely Sand Dune", alone with nothing but stars and sand whirling about.
