Artist/Band: Jack Johnson
Lyrics for Song: Inaudible Melodies
Lyrics for Album: Brushfire Fairytales (2001)



Brushfire fairytales
Itsy bitsy diamond wells
Big fat hurricanes
Yellow-bellied given names
Well, shortcuts can slow you down
And in the end we're bound
To rebound off of we

Well, dust off your thinking caps
Solar-powered plastic plants
Pretty pictures of things we ate
We are only what we hate
But in the long run we have found
Silent films are full of sound
Inaudibly free

Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that

Inaudible melodies
Serve narrational strategies
Unobtrusive tones
Help to notice nothing but the zone
Of visual relevancy
Frame-lines tell me what to see
Chopping like an axe
Or maybe Eisenstein should just relax

Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that

Well Plato's cave is full of freaks
Demanding refunds for the things they've seen
I wish they could believe
In all the things that never made the screen
And just slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when
You're moving like that
Slow down everyone
You're moving too fast
Frames can't catch you when you're moving like that
Moving too fast


Inaudible Melodies

Jack Johnson's "Inaudible Melodies" appears on his 2001 album *Brushfire Fairytales*, a collection that solidified his reputation for blending acoustic guitar with introspective, often whimsical songwriting. The track exemplifies his signature style, characterized by laid-back rhythms and lyrics that explore themes of memory, quiet observation, and the subtle complexities of human connection. Released during a period where Johnson was establishing himself as a consistent voice in alternative country and folk, the song reflects the gentle, storytelling approach found throughout his early discography. It stands as a testament to his ability to craft melodies that are both accessible and deeply personal, resonating with listeners who appreciate music that prioritizes mood and narrative over high-energy production.
