Tethered by Earth, roadmap and compass They can out run us, let's go
 Drawn from the stone, unlike any other You were the brother, foretold I can't believe you've never been to the garden You've got the keys so come on through Players can change season to season It's within reason to fall
 Move beyond self, think to the future A wound you can suture, I'm told I can't believe you've never been to the garden You've got the keys so come on through If it was
 You would know I'd be happy I can't believe you've never been to the garden You've got the keys so come on through

Accordion spring back to me Golden opportunity
 Driving into hurricanes I know that you are over it Crippling anxiety There’s nothing left for you in this Protected by parenthesis I know that you are over it Balance on your fingertips I know it’s not enough 
 Manhattan, cosmopolitan Pleasantries, then let’s begin 
 Flowers draped in history Now that you are over it Withered leaves of hickory There’s nothing left for you in this Your wings are barely fluttering Now that you are over it What’s the use in bickering I know it’s not enough

St. Albans 02:46
Take a look at the facts Molehill memories Weed, fable and poison Apologize, repeat I was overwhelmed
 I was overwhelmed by you Had we gone for a walk You’d bum a cigarette We would never survive In my self defense Now it’s all silhouettes An X over a dream Channeling stars and galaxies Regret, resolve, release
 I’ve lost my way I’m running late No returns, you can never go back

Always 05:19
Breathe slow and deep March silently This all must end This all must end I know what this is And I know what to do I will not run I will not run Stay close to me now Stay close to me now Stay close to me now

about

GS027

Blue Canopy's 'Mild Anxiety' is the debut EP from Portland-based multi-instrumentalist, Alex Schiff. Under the Blue Canopy moniker, Alex combines versatile songwriting chops and timeless, exuberant melodies to comprise four distinct pieces that utilize nostalgia as a force to move forward.

Formerly the keyboardist and co-writer for indie band, Modern Rivals, Alex has shared the stage with bands such as Ra Ra Riot, Stars, and The Black Keys. The EP's lead single, "656" enlists the four other members of Modern Rivals (performing drums, guitar, bass, synth and backup vocals) as an official send-off to a relationship that was a formative part of Alex's youth and time living in New York City.

'Mild Anxiety' was produced by Alex Schiff & Patrick J Smith (A Beacon School/Modern Rivals).
