Journey/A Mountain of Yeses (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 Weighing in at six pounds I can't wait to see the day Fleshing out the in bounds As I call out my hooray! Beware the vacuum 'Cause the air just dissipates Crawling down the fire escape You can smell my body in you I see my path and walked down the road So I could get out of town Tried to make connection And follow it through I'm over the moon I was late for the countdown I missed the race Never fear I'm here G-force flowing through you I can count to ten I can count to ten Growing 'til I have momentum On the other side Voices call to me And the sound like BOM BOM BOM (etc.) Go away now I'm done with you I was fool not to know Everything flashes Behind my eyes No love I could have ever, known

Space 03:32
Space (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 Feeling better than I have for days and days Further on my way to be a superstar I can't recall the time at all A distant sun revealed Nice to see a different world That's spinning round and round to welcome me Hello dear you seem sincere and looking good Help me on my way to meet the gang? If I was in my right mind I'd tell you what I think Never share my deepest feelings So they can't be used to use the pain I can travel alone while I'm singing a song I can rocket across the sky You were not right You weren't my type at all I can only say that it was fun But now it's time to go away

Spark 22 02:08
Spark 22 (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 I have come to the conclusion that I am a fake Never have I asked you questions How you spend your day I could not disguise my take on you I looked on as you were brutally cold Never have I felt so out of touch but in control I have come to the conclusion that I am a fake Never have I asked you questions How you spend your day I could not disguise my take on you

Passion For Displacement (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 Tell me I'm right and I belong No place I know I can call my home Scientists mock me They say I'm immune To waves of depression and impending doom What do you know? What do you get? Dreams I had Lies I have Recently I fortified the strength in resolve Barely intact I can't blend into the scene I summoned the work of inconceivable dreams Study the cosmos Intellectual fact And I proved that a map can't tell me where I'm at. I'm traveling fast enough for time to slow down. Moving much faster than light and sound

Whiteout 02:29
Whiteout (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 Living but only to dream In the face of Defeat to define on your mind The distractions of Deepening thought that defies The occasional Streak of malicious belief From angelic decree Masochistic elation I like to talk and take In a whiteout Just like a blackout I would celebrate If I could Only find the door Vacantly Pleasant You have to follow your nose Perfection is what I'd call this game In a whiteout Just like a blackout I would celebrate If I could Only find the door In a whiteout Just like a blackout I would celebrate If I could Open up the door Vacuously seen Immaculately contrived Icing is the ensnare to entice me
6.
Planet of Knives (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 I can love you I can tame you I decide life I will shape you I will break you Feel the cold knife Me I'm not so bad Don't confuse that I could thrill you I could kill you Now that the tables have turned I will destroy The person you are For trying to make me bleed Oh you tried so hard You pulled the death card
7.
Valley of No 03:14
Valley of No (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 You can run You can hide Lock your pain inside 'Cause I'm loose I'm tight I can put up my dukes because I'm ready to fight Ooh, ooh I got to tell you Ooh, ooh I want somebody to talk to Ooh, ooh I got to get to you Oh yea I do, I do I really do! What a release 'Cause you fill my cup up You seal the deal Have you got the guts to be strong girl I know you well Even if you think I don't 'Cause I've been in you Your heart is dying to sleep In the Valley of No On the Planet of Knife Unopened You cut me deep Uncover the truth I left a surprise for you Uncover the truth I left a surprise for you

Nature of Body (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 How did all this happen? Still drunken and confused The moments of my nights abuse Kissed Morning dew I feel Something new Putting on my clothing I can't recall your face You're the prettiest imperfect one... mmm Won't notice me 'Cause I'm so Fond of you I can love you I can tame you I decide life I can love you I can tame you I decide life Your song it calls to me And it sounds like I am looking for you I got to get to you I can stop anytime But I won't I have left the Mountain of Yes To discover relief From self-made distress I have been through it all Just to be the ball Down the corner and a jog to the left I am drawn to your beautiful song You can smell me coming for you Hello dear You seem sincere And looking good I'm here to take you up to meet the gang Come on now We can't miss the boat I can't wait to show you my home No time to speak We have a long way to go I think it can wait We were running As the hole began to fill up Nothing left to buy us time Just in time for the countdown We've won the race Never fear I'm here G-force flowing through you 10-9-8-7-6-5 I can count to ten 4-3-2-1 If I were in my right mind I'd tell you what I'd think If I were in my right mind I'd tell you what I'd think I could not disguise my take on you

Wasted 02:03
Wasted (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 Time again I'm going to give it my all I'm gonna knock back two of that stuff that makes me get Wasted Fucked up Wasted I fly by so low Scraping up my body All alone Pass the phone I gotta call my home I wanna make sure everything's nice 'Cause I want to get Wasted Fucked up Wasted I fly by so low Scraping up my body All alone

By the Tree (free) 02:53
By the Tree (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 By the tree I am whole in your arms Even though I'm holding the knife I am here To tell you goodbye Even though I'm missing you I am here to say goodnight There was a time when you laid by my side I had no fear as I held you tight I am here To say it's alright I understand that you had to go I didn't know that your candle burned low Oh my dear I loved your life (Wail) You were limp in my frozen arms Your eyes were open and waiting Oh my Boi You made me smile I laid you down to embrace the sky I lit the match and I burned you high I'm here To say Goodnight

Over the Moon (Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009 Hello dear It's nice to meet you I'm here because I'm feeling incomplete I never got your name Because I never tried And I can't shake emotions that I have inside You moved me And I don't know why You move me Until I cried And now... It's nice to meet you I'm now Over the Moon Never to come back And now That I'm over you On this day A million miles away You told me that you could not ever love again I climbed aboard my vessel And you waved to me goodbye I never knew you had blue tears behind your eyes Move me Through the distant skies You moved me Until I died And now I have to leave you I'm now Over the Moon Never to come back And now That I'm over you Cause now, that I'm insane Aftermath remains There's no more looking back It's time to face the facts I'll love you just the same As rocket engine flame Since that day has come It’s multiplied Fantastic tales of living out a life I wanted to explain the fear behind my eyes I wanted you to know the painful plight You moved me And I don't know why I'm now Over the Moon Never to come back And now That I'm over you

about

A Mountain of Yeses (2009)
UNiPEGaDONG Records - DONG-0001
Available on Haymaker Records 2020

Recorded with the loose concept of being a story set in space.
After many weekly collaborations with Devin Brown, Be/Non finally had a skeleton of what would become a full-on, fleshed-out concept record. Act one and act two.

Fully realized. In 2009 Brodie Rush set out to turn the album into a 50 minute film. Still in post production, Be/Non hopes to have a completed film by spring 2025.
