DOUBTING WON'T DO Get in a car Go to the airport Walk through security Sit through a search Get in a plane Sit in a chair Watch three movies Get off in the morning Go through customs Pick up my suitcase Get on a tram to a bus to a train Meet the promoter Go to the venue Walk in the door Get up on stage Set up my gear Check that it works Talk to the soundman Ask him to fix it Remember his name He's your best friend tonight Get off the stage Eat a quick dinner Stand at the table Sell a cd Wait till the room's full then Take the stage Feelings of discomfort Gotta keep 'em interested Wish I could do flips That might convince them Doubting Won't Do You must stay you, confident They like when you rock But you're tired Play a quiet one tonight Maybe they're bored It's so hard to tell So just play and maybe yell Next thing you know The show is over Wipe off the sweat, breathe Stand at the table Wipe away some debt Wipe away more sweat Make some money Then have it robbed This is a difficult job This is what it has become for me Where is the fun in that? Where is the art for that matter? Does it matter? I don't know Play a show Don't play a show Does it matter? Does it matter? Doubting Won't Do You must stay you, confident They like when you rock But you're tired Play a quiet one tonight Maybe they're bored It's so hard to tell So just play and maybe yell Get up too early Take a cab Go to the airport Check your bag Walk through security Get on a plane Watch three movies Get home in the morning Doubting Won't Do You must stay you, confident They like when you rock But you're tired Play a quiet one tonight Maybe they're bored It's so hard to tell So just play and maybe yell

RABBITS IN THE WILD Five objects in my possession What a progression I am possessed I'm loving the heaven The oven inside of your dress When our bodies make a bumpa A tumble, a rumble from the middle of a chest We go rolling down the gentlest slope Oh my God, you're so dope Every single day full of life And I'm glad to spend it with you Near me stay, alright, alright Possession with a fervor We can take it so much further Like rabbits in the wild I read you what you're thinking The drink you sippin' Like a rabbit in the wild I feel all kinds of clever Like it could last forever I'm a rabbit in the wild I read you what you thinking And move smooth into your space Like a rabbit in the wild Picking up your signal Like a monkey in the middle Or a rabbit in the wild I fiddle with your zipper On the back undo the clip A rabbit in the wild Our fingers lace and cross As we roll into the moss We're rabbits in the wild I'm thinking what you're thinking We're th-thinking the same thing I'm drinking what you're drinking We're d-drinking the same thing I'm thinking what you're thinking We're th-thinking the same thing Like a rabbit in the wild Even if we try and hide our nature It's absurd We're just rabbits in the wild Riveted by knowledge of the way our bodies work together Rabbits in the wild We could mix a potion And then raise it into motion For the world we make a child A rabbit in the wild I read you what you thinking We're th-thinking the same thing I read you what you're drinking We're d-drinking the same thing I read you what you thinking We're th-thinking the same thing Like a rabbit in the wild

If You If 04:17
IF YOU IF Gotta do it if you if No reason given Go on living Gotta do it if you if Your please inside Your want can tell you Compel you into it It the sitch When you claimed You wanted to change But remained framed into it Gotta do it if you if No reason given Go on living Till we can run and break Into the open air, the open air Gotta do it if you if Gotta do it if you wish To break the mirror with your fist On a brazen gallop through the open land Raise your own scalp up in your open hand Gotta do it if you if Gotta do it if your myth Is seasoned with the peppered fist The way they gallop through the ocean land Gotta do it if you if No reason given Go on living Gotta do it if you if Your please inside Your want can tell you Compel you into it It the sitch When you claimed You wanted to change But remained framed into it Gotta do it if you if No reason given Go on living Till we can run and break Into the open air, the open air

He Once Was 05:28
HE ONCE WAS Friend, get down I have a tale Please, just do me this favor Many moons I've weaved the loom Of he that was my savior He once was my savior Band of time With the thunderous storms Please don't leave me normal Kick and punch And scrape my mind Of he that was my savior He once was my savior Ooo, then I fell ill I tested you still I swallowed your pill Ooo, then I lay still Friend, get down I am concerned How can I Unlearn what I've learned? Baby's eyes That's what I need I'm far from blind But it's so hard to see I feel the tide Move in and inside of me Friend, get down Please, just once Will I ask you this favor Have you found A single sound For he that was my savior He that was my savior He once was…

Anouk 05:20
When I wake up To see your smiling face For heaven's sake You are my saving grace I wouldn't doubt it If you were sent from heaven above You are a tutor Teaching me the meaning of love. I draw a picture It is an image of you I make a dinner You are the taste of my food When I leave you Be sure you're on my mind Couldn't forget you You are the sun in my shine When you're laughing It makes me insane When you're dancing It makes me do the same When I return From being so far away All my worries and sorrow They just fade away

My Will 05:15
MY WILL I stand and gaze into my open eyes They hide inside a mirror I stand and stare into the masks Of my body Glancing in the portholes of my Wildly confused mind, I find I'm wise and love filled Try to find my way I'd stay but now Now's my time to prove myself Once and for all I know I can No mountain to tall Where in this land is a man who can stand and never fall? Not me, I am, I am a human But I'll at least do the best that I can I can, I can, I swear it, I know it, I will I will, My will By will, the result is what the will shall will We'll see, won't we? You'll see me I'm going to prove myself Once and for all I know I can No mountain to tall I am going to prove myself For me, just me.

SLAVE TO LOVE I miss you baby Please don't go away forever You drive me crazy sometimes But letting you go has never crossed my mind I really love though I rarely love true I know that it saves me I really love though I rarely love true It enslaves me A slave to love I now serve you gladly And sadly when you're gone It's been so hard to understand kindness I feel so bad for all the harm I've done In hindsight, I rarely loved and I took from those I blinded I don't know why I was a selfish spy Who stole from those who simply wanted to be close A slave to love I now serve you gladly To make up for what I done A slave to love, I now serve you gladly And sadly when you're gone I'll make it up to you for alt the hurt I've done I swear I will I'll do all that I can I'm new to this, but I can make it happen Lost when you are gone I really love though I rarely love true I really love though I rarely love true A slave to love I now serve you gladly And sadly when you're gone…

There's this thing in the middle of the room and it's big. I want to move it, but it's big, and it's got so much attached. I attack myself for wishing it gone so I could move freely. Cuz I preach complete acceptance and believe resist is futile, but my mind it is fertile, and biodiverse is worthwhile. So the weeds are left to live with the plants which tend to give, and I'd kinda like to move it, but it's big so I'll try to shift it, see if the middle of the room can somehow get bigger, now no object in its space, but this place is in my mind, and my mind is what I make it, and the big thing in the middle's just a puddle made by thinking I am the thing king or at least a thing king. The things I think are making what I feel and how I take it. The things I think are making what I feel and how I take it. How my take on things affects the way I see them. It is now a lake… aynd when my take is on the learning, not the wrong thing, not as critic, not to hold it… how the future unfolds right from that, right from this very moment… and how the thoughts you think link with time and make a future. How that future stinks or shines right in line with your own truth.

Searching, finding Loving, giving without minding Living, breathing Loving blindly, searching for a freeway. Show me the way home Finding a home, a life I will never know Wishing, pining Working, grinding for a life I will never know For me the road is a hard climb Filled with rocks and boulders and white lies A life I'll never know Feel so lost and lonely in my mind A life I'll never know All my famous friends are living their lives to the end A life I'll never know Fishing, got my hook in Pull tight, reel in Got one, it's too small A throwback from long ago All my famous friends are climbing and climbing in A life I'll never know I'd like to appreciate that when I'm dying A life I have never needed No life I will ever need Just a life I have never known My life is right A life I live like a life I have always needed That I will never not know It's the only life I can know So better make it good All my famous friends are right here with me until the end A life I'll never know Fields of hearts and roses in my mind The real of rock imposes a hard climb A life I'll never know…

LANDSCAPE PASSING Set it down for a spell Who can tell in a wave of crashing Speed it up by slowing down Look around at the landscape passing In my days I felt my gaze On the right and the wrong inside of me You held me tight on my worst days How can I doubt in you? There's nothing to say Now I hear the whisper of the trees Silence is not easy.
12.
Feel I'm finally ready, come and get me For the time of my life, come and get me I am waiting for the dream to take me Tree in the sky, come and pick me up Plant an idea like a seed On a rock in the sky with nothing to feed Sky's the limit they'd have you believe Tree in the sky is coming for me In the evening, heat lightening gathers to you Our eyes collide with light There's a mystical picture Afraid if I move, this mirage will fade into the night People look at me like I am going crazy Maybe I am, but this beauty I see There's no limit to the things you can see Tree in the sky, Imagination free Tree in the sky, why don't you come and get me.

Live, pure, and honest acoustic performances in high fidelity audio coupled with multi-layered loops telling the up and down story of an Indy musician on the road.

about

Seth Faergolzia Rochester, New York

Dufus were one of the most prolific, original, and influential bands to emerge from the chaotic mash of freak folk acoustic rock scene of New York City. Their sound is absolutely different; Seth Faergolzia's voice and songwriting style can be matched by no other. Dufus disbanded in 2010, but Seth Faergolzia continues the legacy with 23 Psaegz, Forest Creature and Heck Yup.
