i just wanted to stop by and say this is one of my favorite songs, and it's deeply inspired several of my own stories and characters. six years later, and i still come back here to listen to it. thank you so much for making it. i hope wherever you are, you're doing alright, and if you ever post more music here again, i can't wait to hear it <3

this is my favorite song. i'm serious. i want to cover this but i feel like im not worthy

So this track has been mixed again, and hopefully your dear, sweet heart finds it much improved. I like it, anyway. But what do I know?

Lyrics:

My whole mouth was filled with blood before I had a say
And sometimes even the soft-hearted snap and then start to look for prey
And hiding in the snow
The foxes watch to see where they'll go, so
Little rabbits, don't dally
Just make your way home

Don't hurt me...
... don't make me.

(Mother, I do not need your help. I can take care of myself.)
(No I must not love you so. God, you're just so perfect, though.)

"Victims are what we make them," he said, red all on his face
But still they go wandering away from the burrow to settle their own pace
And inching closer, marveling at my pointed ears and fangs
The duet is sung and it's old as sin
Just pick your proper phrase:

Don't hurt me...
... don't make me.

My whole mouth was filled with blood
I think I liked the taste
...
So chewing my fingers and biting my lip
I think I found my place
Hiding in the snow
The fox will watch to see where you go, so
Little rabbit, don't dally
Just make your way home
He whispers,
"Little rabbit, just make your way home."

From "A Trick of Physics," out NOW on @subviolet
zerotep.bandcamp.com/album/a-trick-of-physics

'A Trick of Physics,' the third full-length from Zero Tep, is a retrofuture melt of jazz fusion, footwork patterns, and late-night Moog jams. Inspired by natural phenomena (the "everyday psychedelic") and library music, 'A Trick of Physics' is a compositional dive into the beautiful and exotic.
