Down The Beach

Vaporize

As it stands………..I am turning the wheel
As it stands………..there’s nothing left here for you to steal
As it stands………..I haven’t seen you for weeks
As it stands………..you’re doubling through these sewer stained streets
As it stands………..I shoot it down, you know you don’t mean a thing
As it stands………..I step slow motion from the flaming machine
As it stands………..you know that I don’t want it to die, but
As it stands………..I know I’ll never leave this alive

It’s got nothing to do with you
Just the fear of forgetting
The bodies & nights that I’ve been used
& I used you too
……………….......……..like a cheap perfume

As it stands………..the only teacher is time, but
As it stands………..this lesson will be my whole life
As it stands………..I know that it is all in my head, 
As I stand…………..a rising escalator to a cliff edge, &
…………………….........I know I’m being obvious, a whale on the beach, but
As it stands………..we both know who is wearing the leash
As it stands………..I’m walking with my head in my hands, just
…………………......…...waiting for the moment when you stab me right back

It’s got nothing to do with you
Just the fear of forgetting
The bodies & nights that I’ve been used
& I used you too
……………………..........like a cheap perfume
……………………...........like a blow-up doll in a backstreet brawl
……………………...........like strangers sharing a bathroom stall
……………………...........gives me panic stabs from a casual glance
……………………...........gives me swollen glands from uncertain chance
……………………...........& I’m seeing stars in a boxer’s hand
……………………...........a one-night stand with a pension plan

Leaving - Reflection [GCR009]

GCR009 is the debut LP from Leaving (Rupert Thomas) - deep drone and gutsy ambience recorded between 2013 and 2017.

Written and recorded on Noongar boodja (Western Australia), Thomas’ inimitable wavescaping is complemented by local photographer Duncan Wright’s aerial landscape on the cover, and speaks to the record's special connection to its country – sound and image forming the perfect package for a cheeky meditation on your morning commute, first brew of the day in hand, or cuddled up somewhere comfy, resonating harmoniously with your beloved. Just listen...

Limited edition vinyl release forthcoming.
