lyrics
Oh mother, I've missed you lately,
When the sea cradles like your arms around me.
Oh wonderful. I'm only drifting,
I'm losing sleep to this fear of sinking.
Into the depths, (Down below, down below)
Can I surrender? (In your arms, mother dear)
Into your arms, Mother dear,
Is it safer on the land?
Oh Poseidon, please show mercy.
This is my last time being lost to sea...
Oh Father, think fondly of me as I'm
Sitting here, at the bottom of the sea.
Into the depths, (Down below, down below)
Can I surrender? (In your arms, mother dear)
Into your arms, Mother dear,
Is it safer on the land?
When the sea cradles like your arms around me.
Oh wonderful. I'm only drifting,
I'm losing sleep to this fear of sinking.
Into the depths, (Down below, down below)
Can I surrender? (In your arms, mother dear)
Into your arms, Mother dear,
Is it safer on the land?
Oh Poseidon, please show mercy.
This is my last time being lost to sea...
Oh Father, think fondly of me as I'm
Sitting here, at the bottom of the sea.
Into the depths, (Down below, down below)
Can I surrender? (In your arms, mother dear)
Into your arms, Mother dear,
Is it safer on the land?

about
origami Fort Collins, Colorado
origami's sound is difficult to define simply, because each member brings something completely different to the table.
Chaotic, complex, melodic, poetic, and painted in various shades of youthful frustration.
origami is truly unlike any of the music you hear in the Northern Colorado scene, though you'll need to see them live to understand it.
