about

Originally a two-part song ("Introduction to the End of the Beginning," an instrumental + "I Can't Take Today") this song was part of Umbrella EP #1 known as "The Boy and the Tree." That limited CD release was packaged and released by the band and has long been out of print.

Sunset Alliance encouraged Umbrella to combine EPs #1 and #2 to remaster and release on a large scale. This was done New Years Day, 2019 and officially released under the title "I & II," accompanied by new artwork conceived by DPJ and designed and crafted by Sam Salima.

lyrics

Take another look at me, a broken man, no empathy
I can’t stay here
Falling out of history, a shadow makes me
But I can’t stay here
Time goes
And I can’t stay here
Lies show
And I can’t stay here now
You lost your favorite watch, I’m searching, now
But I can’t stay here
I believe you, I believe in you
But I can’t stay here
Time goes
And i can’t stay here
Lies show
And I can’t stay here now
We’re leaving forever
And everyone knows their way, there
Time doesn’t travel still
And everyone there is way, way late
I can’t take today
Hello, I can’t know, now
My time is running out
I might have to turn you over
Can you say that again
I can’t stay here
I might have to turn you over
But never again
I can’t stay here
I might have to turn you over
But never again
I can’t stay here
I can’t stay here.
