Release date: November 12, 2013.

Documented on Post Planetary in 2025.

Written and performed by Faris McReynolds. Artwork by Michelle Blade.

Fly By Life was a massive undertaking in terms of programming the automations and sounds, and overall musical complexity. This was me wanting to have more fun with it, simplify, and incorporate sounds from ExDetectives, as I was wrapping up that project.

Boredinaire - Lyrics:

Lifted Off

Feeling so born inside
Open wide, airy
Grieving brokenhearted cries never sound that good

Clouds got lifted off

Clouds got lifted off

Dreamy California style
In the sky, stranded
Reaching out
Come inside
Over out for good

Clouds got lifted off
Clouds got lifted off
Clouds got lifted off
Clouds got lifted off

Rabbit Hole

I won't set it down
I won’t let it go
Tunnel into something deeper than we know
Thrust into the sky
Mirror in my eye
Am I getting close?
Am I already arrived?
Adjusting for the times
Ease into disguise
Fella mellowed out on the breeze until he died

Powered on, alive
I, I
Powered on, alive
I, I

Almost good enough
Almost got it done
Couldn't catch the wind blowing through my heart again
Adjusting for the times
Ease into disguise
Fella mellows out on the breeze until he dies

Powered on, alive
I, I
Powered on, alive
I, I

Sunlite Lullaby

Dreaming aloud
Undecided
No one gets in the way of the heart
Dreaming aloud
Absent minded
Honestly, it’s not that hard

Dreaming aloud
As you like it
Take it with you
Take it apart
It turned out I decided living gets in the way of the heart
(So what)

Sunlight won’t peel you up
Ain't no lullaby gonna put you away

Sunlight won’t peel you up
Ain't no lullaby gonna put you away

Sunlight won’t peel you up
Ain't no lullaby gonna put you away
