about

For the title track, Jacobb was trying to write a song like an Alex Chilton composition using a capo on the 4th fret and “Ambersands” was the song that manifested. Two separate layers of acoustic guitars (Martin & Taylor 6 strings) were recorded for the main rhythm guitar section of the song.

lyrics

I’d lie on a beach and wait to die
Feeling no regrets in the high tide
Knowing the moon was always on my side
While a million specters are holding hands
Their bodies lie on amber sands

Hear an interpretation of the divine?
As told by humans, a hypocritical rhyme
Benefit from a creed that bleeds
All for the snake of belief

I’d rather lie on a beach and wait to die
Adding to the populous brings regret
Fortunate upbringings, did they forget?
A simple repetition of reality
Now a million bodies lie on crimson sands
Waiting for some afterlife ampersand

Hear a deviation from the divine?
As told by humans, a hypocritical rhyme
Benefit from a creed that bleeds
All for the snake of belief

Little reminders of how life’s too big and small
Tiny suggestions to trust no one at all
Reminds you not to believe in some grand plan
Drifting away on my own river
Red shores for crimson sands
Expectations are divine
Just don’t let go of your mind
Activate another spinning vignette
Through rough handling, spine adjustments
