    Lyrics
    Electric feeling, destructive healing open the gates to find
    the secret
    Body’s teaming, I can’t stop
    dreaming, I keep my eyes closed, it feels so crazy
    Electric feeling, destructive healing open the gates to find
    the secret
    Body’s teaming, I can’t stop dreaming,
    I keep my eyes closed, it feels so crazy
    Vivid crystalline, prickle in the
    skin. Chaos twinkling- find the secret
    Vivid crystalline, prickle in the
    skin. Chaos twinkling- find the secret
    Vivid crystalline, prickle in the
    skin. Chaos twinkling- find the secret
    Vivid crystalline, prickle in the
    skin. Chaos twinkling- find the secret
    Sit back and give your eyes to the sky.
    Transform clouds with your mind as they fly by.
    Time is yours and you cannot be late
    Free yourself, give your conscience away
    Sit back and give your eyes to the sky.
    Transform clouds with your mind as they fly by.
    Time is yours and you cannot be late
    Free yourself, give your conscience away

    Took my 9 year old son to see TMBG and Moon Hooch opened for them. The family walked away Moon Hooch heads. We immediately went home and bought the album and he played Contra and #9 for his friends at school. Great to hear an opening band with a sound I've never heard before and I really enjoyed. The vocals on this song were a fantastic add.
