about

2nd EP from Anthony Spirito. Featuring Chandra Reese.

lyrics

The August Spiders
For Robert Lowell & Stuart Leonard

Spider dances alone
Tucked away in your home
Don’t you think it’s time for a change

Wouldn’t you agree
When you say you’re free
You seem to be leavin’ out your name

Well I’ll tell you this
Day or night is what you wish
Cause no one here wants to go down like that again

Remember when the sky fell down
You were dressed like a clown
Hanging on clouds like colored balloons

What’s left of what we’ve done
As dust gathers on the sun
There must be something more it’s true

Cause nothing less than blue
Can keep the tower the boat and the rain

When the clocks found their fame
You were curbside in the rain
Waiting for a traffic light to turn green

Standin’ there
Did something to your air
And now your blindness can’t be blamed

What happened to you
Is anyone’s guess it’s true
You were a beacon for the blue sky in the rain

Remember when the sky fell down
You were dressed like a clown
Hanging on clouds like colored balloons

What’s left of what we’ve done
As dust gathers on the sun
There must be something more it’s true

Cause nothing less than blue
Can keep the tower the boat and the rain
