Sisterland 07:15
Please keep dressing down This moment of impact The stained glass chiming Soft wind purr Through autumn leaves Like confetti Up against the sky Blowing cigarette smoke Soft wind purrs This is an emergency Hearts prone to eruptions X and Y and X Now drifting back I see Joy drunk languid tropes Kiss me Tongues locked ancestral Kiss me Fake blood and acetate Kiss me Midnight female bones Not someone I know

Palace 06:40
I make elastic work out of the lonely moon now I take this late night voice out Through the palace in the moonlight Held hands in the garden Reel around the fountain Can you feel the drift? Work out in the pull-up Some smoking section Do you feel the drag? Does it make it drag? I make the candle drip I make them wax the tip I'll make them lose their grip

Lock down the animal instinct Avoiding things I don't want Kissing boys in the dripping crypt A cellar-dweller tongue The usual grip Straight people get themselves Caught up and confused about The seperation and the difference between Love and lust Marriage and a fuck Friendship and a crush Dancing all night long Lit up in the crypt baby That's what I want Push up on me I want it all tonight I want two I want you Hazy brain in action Weighing me up in the neon I'm sorry I don't feel that way about you I know what I want And he's already gone Dancing all night long Lit up in the crypt baby That's what I want Push up on me I want it all tonight I want two I want you Dancing all night long Lit up in the crypt baby That's what I want Feel your tongue dancing on mine now Through my blood Working on Dancing in the crypt all night long We've got nothing to fear Feeling it drip on me Talking about it all year Dancing all night long Kiss me in the crypt It's what I want Who am I? What have I become? Tonight I am one Dancing all night long Lit up in the crypt baby That's what I want Feel your tongue dancing on mine now Drugs working their magic Putting the damage on Dancing all night long Lit up in the crypt baby That's what I want Push up on me all night Feel your tongue on mine I can taste it Dancing in the crypt all night Arms around me We've got nothing to fear Feeling it drip on me Music pounding Talking about it all year What if I wake up?

Ultra Violet 04:47
I woke up in the middle of the night To the sound of helicopters Circling the palace where I slept I awoke alone In the dark I found my way Across the hall to the light from a window The lace and voile blowing gently In the night breeze And then all through the night Your voice it calls to me It opens up a pathway in the palazzo To a garden The deepest shade of blue Flowing through the trees It's the moon And all it's mysteries That lights the ground and all it's surroundings And your voice leads me through To gallows A footstep to a noose Can you hear the angels singing In their choirs just for you All these violet rays they paint with their voices Come to take you away from the palazzo

Ambulant 05:40
In the moonlight The blood flow Shines bright in the chrome light To blinding white A moonlit forcefield to touch She's woken by noises in the night From somewhere in the darkness out of sight Her motions cast shadows on the floor Her secrets can't save us anymore The breeze blows quiet in the trees But the terror of the unknown never ceases We're alone but somebody else is watching Surrounded in our shadows A moonlit forcefield that they can't touch
7.
Crossfade 06:05
When the fog clears It moves down Creeping near Still so far away Smoke makes the air Chokes the night from the day Can't see my hands Can't feel my breath on the air Creeping near Still so far away Touching the darkness Not so far away Underwater Fingers feel numb Skin across the boards :: :: :: howl :: :: :: In the night glare Sway Trembled fingers lay Still kicking Not breathing __ A crossfade from life to death Not yet in the fog of decay ...Still so far....

I FIND NOTHING HERE Where once was something else Now concrete slabs Where once was something pure Derelict and full of rats The only colour scheme That differentiates from grey Exists inside my mind A colour of my making A colour I am dreaming _______ I FOUND SOMETHING HERE! It must be re-arranged Your eyes can't comprehend Enter the dreaming realm And try to understand The only colour scheme That differentiates from grey Exists inside our minds It cannot stay this way New colours of our making New colours we are dreaming New colours we created Like relics of the past Though never coming back Have left their mark upon these walls And add a shade to the colours

about

ETERNAL RETURN


Desolate highways leading to a returning point

Night view forcing everything into monochrome

A burning distance encroaching towards you

Is passion really what you want?

Do you really believe there is an afterlife waiting to accept you?

We accept TV static as a form of colour that no longer exists

In these crumbling palaces, there are memories, but not ones we should examine

This is a blending of multiple worlds

You may be unloved but I will retain you

Eternal Return - it sounds heavier.
