Phish

Phish is an American rock band noted for its musical improvisation, extended jams, exploration of music across genres, and adoring fan base. Formed at the University of Vermont in 1983 (with the current line up solidifying in 1985), the band's four members—Trey Anastasio (guitars, lead vocals), Mike Gordon (bass, vocals), Jon Fishman (drums, percussion, vocals), and Page McConnell (keyboards, vocals)—performed together for over 20 years before breaking up in August 2004. They reunited March 2009 for Phish in Hampton, a series of three consecutive concerts played in the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia, and have since resumed performing regularly. more »

No more promises that no one could keep
No more lies to keep us from sleep
No more phone calls (It's today the vows are broken, it's today the charade is over)
When you don't say what you mean (It's today the curtain's coming down)
I've got faith (Now the battle-lines are chosen) in a fairytale (It's today my eyes are open)
Devotion to a dream (It's today the time to turn around)

No more knowing glances or places we can hide
No more chances to keep this thing alive
The two of us together it wasn't in the grand scheme
All it was, was a fairytale and devotion to a dream
Devotion to a dream

No more promises no more keeping score
No more wondering what I stay here for
We broke the awkward silence with polite and practiced lies
But we were just preparing our "good byes"

A long and fruitless voyage that stranded us upstream
All it was, was a fairytale and devotion to a dream
Devotion to a dream

Yesterday my path was chosen
Yesterday my smile was frozen
Yesterday my doors were closing down

Tomorrow I can cross the border
It's today a new world-order
Yesterday my head was spinning 'round

Now I see where this is leading
Tomorrow glaciers are receding
Now I'm mending things I broke inside

I'm completing thoughts unspoken
Now I see that webs were woven
Now I keep the windows open wide

It's today, today, today, today
It's today, today, today, today
It's today, today, today, today

It's today, today, today, today
It's today, today, today, today
It's today, today, today, today
