Submission for the 2019 NPR Tiny Desk Contest. “Decorated Panes” written, recorded, and produced by Jared Evers and Adam Griffith. Videography and coloring by Matt van den Meiracker.

Everyone's seen stock footage. And everyone loves it, right?

So we got a stock membership and made this music video entirely from the "best" stock footage we can find. This is the official music video for Walking In My Sleep (Flooded) by Temple Wildlife.

Lyrics:

Lights out, phone call dreaming
Drop down, weary sinking
Flashback all your dying
Leave it and I'll leave you with the rest of me

Grit my teeth at ya, try to speak at ya
Nothing
Walking in my sleep
Walking in my sleep
Build this tower higher, burning slowly brighter
Brighter
Walking in my sleep
Walking in my sleep

Lights out, phone call dreaming
Drop down, weary sinking
Flashback all your dying
Leave it and I'll leave you with the rest of me

Grit my teeth at ya, try to speak at ya
Nothing
Walking in my sleep
Walking in my sleep
Build this tower higher, burning slowly brighter
Brighter
Walking in my sleep
Walking in my sleep

Grit my teeth at ya, try to speak at ya
Nothing
Walking in my sleep
Walking in my sleep
Build this tower higher, burning slowly brighter
Burning slowly brighter
Walking in my sleep
Walking in my sleep

The official lyric video of "Porcelain Animals" from Black Beans EP.

Lyrics
You let me down
I finally figured out
If you'd stand to see
You might have seen me leave

And you let me down
Fly west somehow
Because I came to fight
I turned on my own blood

Try to pretend, stand up instead
Pulling back again
I single you out
A silhouette doubt

I felt it worse before
I finally let it show
Now I've come to fight
Now I'm out for blood

Try to pretend, stand up instead
Pulling back again
I single you out
A silhouette doubt

Try to pretend, stand up instead
Pulling back again
I single you out
A silhouette doubt

The official lyric video of "There Is Fire" from Black Beans EP.

Lyrics:

All was before me
Bending beneath me
'Til I had discovered ground

All of my battles
Written in ink to come
Still won't relent their song

There is fire
There is fire
There is fire
There is fire
There is

Faded behind the
Sheen of my own brilliance
My pain criticizing me

You have your armor
You still haven't laid it down
Calm down the raging sea

There is fire, there is fire
There is fire
There is fire, there is fire
There is fire
There is fire, there is fire
There is fire
There is fire, there is fire
There is fire

There is, there is fire
There is, there is fire
There is, there is fire

There is, there is fire
There is, there is fire
There is, there is

There is, there is fire
There is, there is

There is fire, there is fire
There is fire
There is fire, there is fire
There is fire
