Whose broken window is a cry of art    (success, that winks aware as elegance, as a treasonable faith) is raw: is sonic: is old-eyed première. Our beautiful flaw and terrible ornament.    Our barbarous and metal little man. “I shall create! If not a note, a hole.    If not an overture, a desecration.” Full of pepper and light and Salt and night and farms. “Don’t go down the plank if you see there’s no extension.    Each to his grief, each to his loneliness and fidgety revenge. Nobody knew where I was and now I am no longer there.” The only sanity is a cup of tea.    The music is in minors. Each one other is having different weather. “It was you, it was you who threw away my name!    And this is everything I have for me.” Who has not Congress, lobster, love, luau,    the Regency Room, the Statue of Liberty,    runs. A sloppy amalgamation. A mistake. A cliff. A hymn, a snare, and an exceeding sun. As I stare at these fractals on the floor A broken reflection of what I’m trying to understand I’ve made a lot of noise in this silence So welcome to my world To dreams in ultraviolet

Twelve o' five it's right on time I sneak through my window On one side we walk the line The other keeps me guessing Can we stop? and look What's holding us back, not much Baby now it's all I see Everything that we could be We can do whatever we want The energy is picking up Oh so present oh so young We can go wherever we please We don't want no money we got all we need Good friends, good music, and some good good We don't want no diamonds we got amethyst And we got nights like these, that you can't resist We meet at the car graveyard a quarter past two Follow the tree line and make your way through You'll find us in the field if you keep on walking Don't shine the light... not worth the risk Step after step now you're taking it slow What do you wanna see? and what do you wanna know? Moons at the spot, it's time are you ready? Look through the leaves the waters right there You don't wanna sink but you wanna get close A new equinox it's time to regrow It's become a nightly thing there's a few more place Do you want to feel awake? Baby now it's all I see What it means to feel free We can shout it louder than ever The energy is picking up Oh so real and oh so young Tell me now, do you see Leave the paths, take the trails

Trying to understand, how you let me in your hand but the pictures fuzzy Like the suede of the shoes that you wear everyday And if it's all the same to you, then it's all the same Everything we know it will remain You got it all figured out why don't you write it all down like you're making a symphony Know what I want and what I need no it's no sin for me To want you to understand To want you to understand Feelings impossible to surmount Leave a bad taste in my mouth Isn't that what we're all about Living incompletely Now i'm swayed Leave my thoughts out on display, speak your words in disarray Inner voices talking, spitting out it's toxic I'm scatter brained i'm unimmersed Need another 28 and another verse Open up the gates let the life disperse And i'm back to earth thank the universe Now i'm swayed Oh now i'm swayed (Now i'm swayed) Oh now i'm swayed (Now i'm swayed) Feelings impossible to surmount Leave a bad taste in your mouth Isn't that what we're all about Living life incompletely I see you when you're faded But you're acting jaded Saying stuff unrelated Wasn't that communicated? Now you're showing new faces In all my favorite places Missing is my greatest phase yet And I know you feel the space left And i'm grounded in my faith yeah But you're still swayin Swayin

Yesterday I went down to the river down the hill Cause it's far away from the life I live and the only place that's still Sometimes I feel I don't know how to deal with the day to day, the mundane So I go down to the water to think And hear what the earth may say And it rains and it floods life up from above Hands in the grass feel the purest love Breathe breathe breathe the worlds not going anywhere Just be and know that you are here Tomorrow I'll go back to the same place I was today Cause it's safe down there and the birds sing soft and the trees are my escape At 18 it's not that hard To see just how unimportant you are Things get too fast Then move too slow And I have problems letting go Settle down, feel the ground The winds moving now like voices around Sunlight like honey my favorite sound Breathe breathe breathe the worlds not going anywhere Just be and know that you are here You cant run forever, cause you'll only go more deep And it wont get much better If you don't face what's underneath Don't go to the river down the hill To the river down the hill To the river down the hill To the river down the hill

You spin yourself in circles Looking for purpose nowhere to be found Does anything around you Look for it too? Create your own profound If there’s life you should live it Just how it is Feel the breeze catch your hair And take it all in If there’s love you should give it It’s all you can do Feel the systems of nature Working for you Take in lay back your shining Being is the silver lining If there’s money you should make it Don’t give a fuck you’re a number It’s a sick sick nation And I feel it going under There’s no giving just taking Just consume and produce There’s no making just faking And you don’t get to choose

I don't need your energies I just miss our synergy Get my hopes up, guess i'm a sucker for it A dice roll, your words feel counterfeit Put down the phone, you only see me on it I feel alone, if i'm completely honest Here we are again like I did a double take No happy accident, you're my beautiful mistake Drain my energy I give you all and you take Playing with my pieces there is nothing left to break Then you put me back together Heart cold like the weather Hands up in my sweater I think I like us better I think I like us better Not a word we're a mess A state of mind we can't suppress More to lose the closer we get But the further away the more I regress But you're all I think about, how much I feel with you And I feel like I won't drown if I sink with you Can you not see it on my face i'm all over the place Cause you weren't just a phase not something I can replace Wanna be there for you, but i'm still falling through Let my ego take over make emotion subdue Here we are again like I did a double take No happy accident, you're my beautiful mistake Drain my energy I give you all and you take Playing with my pieces there is nothing left to break Put me back together Heart cold like the weather Hands up in my sweater I think I like us better I think I like us better You are the sun and I am the moon You are the blue and I am the maroon You are the ocean and I am the trees A feeling in the air when there's colors in the leaves I ask myself Are we in too deep Cause this is way too hard It's been a dream with you But now we're way too far I know our time will live forever Through vivid memories There will be much more perfect days But none quite like these So here's to the future To what unites us To the moment in it's fullest Cheers to us To this life we live

Fall right into place Match made in outer space The signals are so abstract Just make sure your heads intact The sky is falling And we're still stalling Comforts calling Are we dissolving? You understand the deeper things Fall into you, look into me Life's a dream it's got to be You're all I see on this odyssey Fall right into play Match made in outer space Fall right into place Match made in outer space Fall right into play Match made in outer space

Let's get lost in a world fabricated We both watch but we're not concentrated Pictures flash the world is still This won't last but the moment will I like you it's clear to see Friday night in your backseat I kiss you slow Hands on your face The world revolves Fall into place We fell in love Under the stars Hands holding yours In a see of cars Smoke fills the air You look I stare More than a dream Mesmerizing
10.
Move to the beat on the floor, repeat Been hip to the game for sure, indeed Hands in the air, hit the door while it's there Then we stomp some more, repeat Groove to the feel in the room, it's sweet Dance till you can't stand up, it's free Stay stimulated cause still's overrated Entranced when I hear the tune, repeat In chains I'm a slave to a screen I don't doubt it And all that I know is dopamine what about it Everything in place make a scene just right And I can hardly focus on a thing if it ain't bright As the sun says it's last goodbyes And disappears beyond the horizon Leaving streaks of orange and purple Cascading through the thickets of trees on distant mountains Our protagonists make their way up the steps to the garden Where they can leave their worries and hardships of the human world behind Bottles hit the floor I'm looking at her like I've seen this place before Baby I'm tripping on this screen I think I need more More sociability And maybe we'd explore the possibility That you could be my person if you just put down the phone I know this party sucks that's why I won't leave you alone Got a glimmer in your eye and a tear in your shirt So let me conjure up a question let me ask you this first Do you believe in love? For if familiarity bleeds contempt Then how long do we have? Before the colourful conversations and soulful connection Fade away into nothingness It's funny Love reminds me a lot of the internet We pick and choose what we want to see, and then get bored And just move on searching for the next thing To fill the void that exists in us all It's bottomless it doesn't stop Is death the only sweet release in this life? I don't know In chains I'm a slave to a screen I don't doubt it And all that I know is dopamine what about it Everything in place make it seem just right And I can hardly focus on a thing if it ain't bright These flashing lights have me mesmerized And I can't decide if I'm hypnotized The gap is small between truth and lies Indoctrinated by these moving lines

Don't slip up no space for that (I know you want some) It don't matter who you are (in front of a gun) Target on your back just (your daddy had) Don't think you get help because (you had it bad) The rich get richer there's corruption in the picture Make sure you whisper or you'll shine like fixture Can't let out a flicker they're drowning in liquor Follow your scripture and i'm still a witcher Best behavior I can't push at all Cause they might assume I got an 8 ball I see all the looks I can read minds You don't like me but you won't read mine Gotta blame someone right? Find a place for that energy Open up your eyes We create the enemy Open your fucking eyes
12.
Fall apart completely Do you feel like you are sinking? Symphonies of thoughts rush in and out I couldn't tell you What it is about it, but it's right To see how it is from the outside Life is all how you perceive it Take that in and please receive it Some people wouldn't believe it Ones that do they keep it secret It so out of mind this wave is the realest Look me in the eyes and tell me you don't feel it It's like a dream Let your mind evolve Come with me Baby let's dissolve Fall apart completely The walls start breathing This is therapy on a wall If you look a little closer then you might start to fall My world gets complex try to push things away But the closer it gets the more you can face There's beauty in detail and texture and tone Open your eyes and you might crack the code I swam to the bottom and I don't regret it It's not what it seems, come on don't you get it? In the corner me and her eyes bloody She kiss me lips sweet like honey Day n nite we do this shit like cudi This paper got our heads feeling funny
13.
Hold me just a little tighter Cause I feel lighter Don't you? The stars are busy painting pictures We're breaking strictures Like we do And one by one it all makes sense And let those thoughts drift in the infinite I see visions of you and me Everywhere I go And I see you in the little things If only you could know I see visions of you and me Everywhere I go And I see you in the little things If only you could know Not shy of my kind you make me feel alive But the moments are a blindfold And when it does arrive we'll take the nosedive Cause it's haunted us for way too long
14.
Hear em' talking but see no walking do you? And maybe I should just follow the few We're working towards the greater good it's true And maybe one day, your bills can look blue But somethings just not right about the way that this is normal Feed the top with your own crop get what they drop full circle And so we rise For all to see What we've created Serves not you, not me And so we'll ride In ecstacy Ignorance is bliss If we keep on dancing Your roads are paved with gold, and ours with tents White out what's going on, with your diamonds and your tints Playing with our time stuck us in the 9 to 5 The evils in the 5, and it affects the 95 Cause somethings just not right about this stupid little game Shift your eyes to fame and lies like you decide your gain And if we try Then we'll succeed Don't want us to So we keep it discreet You've got your wives And your money But where's your spirit? Nowhere to be seen What if we stopped dancing? Play our own What if we created All we know

about

Dreams In Ultraviolet, Micah Reynolds sophomore studio album. Is an experimental blend of many genres, sounds, and effects. It takes a strong DIY approach. With all of these songs being written, recorded, mixed, and mastered, out of a bedroom. 2 years in the works Micah (or myself as I'm the one typing this) spent time hidden away in his room. Only coming out for the occasional breathe of fresh air and moms dinner. Culminating the perfect sound for this album. What came from it is something quite peculiar, and unique to Micah. Turn on, tune in, and drop out for this rollercoaster of an album.
