about

The Guardians are a new & emerging band from Seattle. Our sole aim is to create strong, memorable songs with engaging lyrics and lasting presence. ♥

For us, the song is everything. Melody, arrangement, and lyrics must form a coherent & complementary whole. Only what is essential remains!

We have a large reserve of material and recently embarked on a six-song recording project. The songs currently available on Bandcamp, YouTube, and elsewhere are a small yet representative sampling of what we do. Our music is wide open--crossing boundaries & genres without hesitation while appealing to human beings of all ages, origins, and orientations.

We hope you are rewarded for having listened to our tunes, and we thank you for your interest in our group and the songs we write!

lyrics

THE INITIATE

What poisoned me
I'll never tell
The antidote
Was strong as hell
It was you

Other people
Stroked my chin
But I would not
Let them in
They weren't you

{CHORUS:}
What world are you from?
What makes you glow?
I must have answers
I must not know!

Bring me a tear
That I can frame
A cup in my hands
That can't be filled
That never stops pouring
When love is spilled

{Repeat CHORUS}

You're so kind
To my body, my soul
And my mind
