U.G. 02:17
"U.G." oh can it be the spoon is bending for me its plain as can be where everyone can see that it bends for me for me tracks in the woods and they lead where they should and it makes my day prayers in the dark lead to one single spark and it lights the way lights the way lights the way can it be the spoon is bending for me its plain as can be and everyone can see that it bends for me for me tracks in the woods and they lead where they should and it makes my day prayers in the dark lead to on single spark and it lights the way lights the way lights the way

glass 03:26
"glass" that crash was really something should we count all the pieces of glass all over the ground seems a stranger broke in the house and he's gone thru all your things and taken what's good while you were sleeping or too scared to move praying for this to please pass you by in the window next door the old lady stands naked as the day she was born

the woods 03:26
"the woods" on this blackest night my window is bright it holds you gaze your eyes shining bright in the forrest tonight your tree climbing claws your big drunken smile holds teeth so bright reflecting the light in the forrest tonight what a terrible sight for the next passer by but my spirit is light its rocketing high in the forest tonight
5.
storms 04:45
"storms" storms on its way storms on its way all big and black 3 terrible dreams about the lightning its bringing storms on its way evil moonlight on the blades of grass i had 3 bad dreams about the lightning its bringing storms on its way

7.
"moonlight is bright" the woods have eyes and so do i the path leads us down the darkest way so out of the way we put on our show the insects bight the dimming light we breath down fumes our eyes grow wide reflecting light in beams like a searchlight moonlight is bright tonight a bright light like a searchlight a bright white light tonight a bright white light this grove of trees at night time breathes gives cover to thieves signals from a dim lit flame dot the woods and stake our claim moonlight is bright tonight a bright light like a search light a bright white light tonight a bright white light like a searchlight a bright white light

a review

The haunting high range of Portland-based musician Marc Manning’s vocals, coupled with the rustic production quality of his most recent EP, Air in the Trees, gives the record a feeling of polite distance and mild inaccessibility. The music is thread together in a way that lets it exist all around you and nowhere around you at the same time, like a hovering blanket. Track four, “The Woods,” is a perfect example of Manning’s blanket of sound, with its hollow, subtle whistling behind the distorted guitar and bleeding vocals. Beyond being incredibly beautiful, this song seems to emerge from the organic spaces of the Northwest. If I believed in heart strings, I would tell you that Manning is pulling every one of them, collectively, like an orchestra. Instead, I will just say that this song makes me want to walk alone until I stop crying. About what, you ask? I’m not sure.
