Weekend Showcase 4.06

Lyrics ✨

Your name burns slow in my backlit skin
Mirror city blinks, we begin again
Tasted lies in the perfume rain
You said “forever” in a midnight frame

Siren pulse in the back of my skull
Everything sweet goes sugar then dull
But your ghostkiss lingers, glitching my soul
In the rearview of control

Chrome skies, baby, I’m lost in the hue
Static in your voice still sounds like truth
Wrapped in echo, neon bruise
If I can’t have light - I’ll haunt with you

Vapor touch, digital sigh
I fall for you like satellites die
You're the virus in my lullaby
I still dream you in ultraviolet cry

Say my name through the smoke delay
I’d fade for you in a heartbeat’s decay



Ghostkiss Under Chrome Skies

Life line 


She dangles her legs, sat upon the ledge.
A detached gaze.
A pale face.
Universal sadness in her eyes.
"Hey, who are you?" I shout at her.
I was just passing by, but something compelled me to look up.
She replies:
"Sod off."
"Okay, okay."
"You don't need to be so nervous."
I know that people often make rash decisions.
Put the brakes on!
It's tough today, it'll get easier tomorrow.
I can't promise that life will pass without pain.
But let's just live, if only to see the bloody credits roll.
Don't cut it short halfway through.
I keep trying somehow to reason with her.
She keeps saying:
"Clear off. Don't stop me from finishing what I started."
I didn't even understand why I gave a toss about her.
But she's barely nineteen.
What the bloody hell?
I didn't know the situation she was in.
But jumping is definitely not the way out.
"Oi, you. Try and switch your brain on, you daft sod!"
"I'm absolutely knackered trying to talk you down here."
"That's it, I'm leaving," I say.
But.
I know that people often make rash decisions.
Put the brakes on!
It's tough today, it'll get easier tomorrow.
I can't promise that life will pass without pain.
But let's just live, if only to see the bloody credits roll.
Don't cut it short halfway through.
I just walked away. I suppose I'm weak.
I ran out of ideas.
I never heard any news of a tragedy.
The city never brought our sights together again.
But if you hear this song, you will remember.
That's the bastard who tried to help.
I know that people often make rash decisions.
Put the brakes on!
It's tough today, it'll get easier tomorrow.
I can't promise that life will pass without pain.
But let's just live, if only to see the bloody credits roll.
Don't cut it short halfway through.

Me hearties. It's a bloody miracle. 
 
How many great tracks can you get on one album? 
 
My new album Glue Moon is finally being loosed upon the world on the 2nd of November, and I thank you for your patience! I also want to thank all the genies, daemons and muses hiding in the walls, waiting to inspire us.
 
I'm so proud of Glue Moon. I hope you enjoy hearing it as much as we enjoyed making it.
 
The songs on the album are written with a specific place in mind, 'Glue Moon'. It takes place in the wee hours, in the woods, by a lake, under a big pale duck egg blue/green moon.
 
Glue Moon is a positive farewell to things you can’t control. It's about letting things happen organically.

"Like a bird of prey, I will not feed it, it will not stay."

Lonely

DESTROYER lyrics

well I’d rather be poor than to take anymore
these are delicate things these are people with dreams 
and you’re pushing them down until they can’t make a sound
yeah we've seen it before

here now meet your destroyer
oh yeah electric warrior
here now meet your destroyer
oh yeah electric warrior warrior warrior

no you can’t take my love away
no it’s all mine it’s here to stay
and when I’m lonely feeling blue
i close my eyes fly back to you fly back to you fly back to you

open it! that’s your vice for life for life 

here now meet your destroyer
oh yeah electric warrior
here now meet your destroyer
oh yeah electric warrior warrior warrior

i walked a mile for 7 days
and on the 3rd i kneeled to pray
i had a wish a dream a clue
i know that face i swear it’s you i swear it’s you i swear it’s you

open it! that’s your vice for life for life for life

well I’d rather be blind than to live off your dime
you keep pushing them down you’re just watching them drown
until they draw their last breath until there ain't nothing left
yeah we've seen it before

here now meet your destroyer
oh yeah electric warrior
here now meet your destroyer
oh yeah electric warrior warrior warrior

you’re the man on my back I been sent to attack
you’re the snake in the tree you’re the evil in me
these are criminal times better get back in line
you’ll see it all comes back to you it all comes back to you it all comes back to you it all comes back to you

well this was the last the time no we’re not doing fine
at the end of the day well there’s no other way
this is it at long last won’t be stuck in the past
it’s the end of the line

open it! that’s your vice for life for life for life for life for life for life
open it! that’s your vice for life for life for life for life for life for life

Catch It
