SACRED MOUNTAIN

Here's another little window into a collab with deft musical novelist and translator of feels, holy shitshow (@user-649412648). This track peeks in on the tale of a pastor, his vice, and his ever-receding chance at redemption. We catch him on a drive, head back, windows down, two fingers hooked on the bottom of the steering wheel, contemplating ...

summertime
6 o'clock in the evening
don't know if i'm
waking or sleeping again

i woke at dawn's light
for the first time in months
clothes still packed
in the trunk
for the journey west

and you and me
we went out in an open top car
that flashing lightning
torrential rain

and you and me
we went out driving
we didn't go very far
a sweet journey nonetheless

o holiday
take me away
from the everyday
into the otherworld
holiday
in the sun
take me away
from every thing i've done
make me a better man, again

my head is under the water
my head is under the water
my head is under the water

o strange sign
somewhere between
the otherworld
and the everyday

strange how our lives
hang in the balance
across the precipice....

and there is a gentle breeze
upon the summit
and a darting bird...
april the first

and vi-o-lets......

and violets
in your words

and in my head i said
'it's summertime again'
and in my mind i said
it's summer time again

a gentle breeze
wafting on the summit
where the river flows uphill
where the river flows
uphill
uphill

heart ache

rows of faces at the bus stop
in newtownards
on a traffic island

with a run down pub
seen better days
still got the smell of the sundays
in the floorboards
and damp in the timbers

new roads have swallowed up
a little part of the old town
slow erased your memories
the drunken nights
bar-room fights
and innerworlds

i went outside
into the summer heat
no time to wallow in defeat
cause it's summertime
again

sea
sea is inside you
sea birds
sea shells
you can hear the sea
breathing
in your
ear
see shells
purple light
california
gleaming and glistening
spinning right between my eyes
california
[you have me hyp-no-tized]
deep south
of southern california
midday heat
sugar sweet

it's summertime

Lies Are Like Snowflakes

Le cœur vert      Texte Camille C

Viens, on arrête de s’mentir on se parle 
Faire semblant ça fatigue, ça fait mal
C’est en train de me bouffer les entrailles
Je veux plus jouer faut tout qu’on déballe

Je sais pas si c’est possible de recoller des firmaments 
Je pense que ça vaut le coup, d’essayer de le faire vraiment 
Est-il possible de rallumer un ciel noir ?  
Et peut-on vivre quand on ne peut plus voir ?

Viens, ça suffit de se voiler la face
Il est temps que se brise la glace
Toi tu te caches derrière tes grimaces
Pendant que notre histoire boit la tasse
 
Je sais pas si c’est possible de replanter des étoiles 
J’ai jamais eu la main verte mais en se donnant un peu de mal 
Poussent-elles là où il n’y à plus rien à boire ?
Peut-être en étant douce, en gardant espoir

Viens, on se remet des étoiles plein les yeux
On n’a pas été bon, trop paresseux
A l’intérieur de moi ça sonne creux
Je suffoque sous ce ciel gris, orageux 

Je sais pas si c’est possible de cultiver ce qui n’est plus là 
Peut-être qu’avec du temps, peut être que si l’on y croit 
la vie peut-elle renaître de ces cendres ?
Comment faire pour que le ciel m’entende ?

Refrain : 

Je n’ai pas le cœur vert, pas de ceux qui prospèrent
Et qui savent transformer en oasis les déserts
Je n’ai pas le cœur vert pas de ceux qui grandissent
Et qui nous font se sentir bien moins petit et triste 
Je n’ai pas le cœur vert pas de ceux qui élèvent
Qui soigne de leur amour nourrissent de leur sève
Je n’ai pas le cœur vert et aucun papillon
Sur mon cœur de verre ne termine la saison

Le Coeur Vert    Texte Camille Courtial   chant : JuliA

Im Dunkeln !

Fuzz Feel 

Don’t ask me how I am
If you don’t want to know
It all could be good 
High 
or low 

Fuzz feel 
It all starts with the fuzz feel 
Noise colliding in the fuzz feel 
Slight touch electric
 
Fuzz feel 
Freeze somehow In the fuzz feel
Frontal lobe busy in the buzz kill 
Forget what I should know 

I fall into a long pause 
Am I tired or just relaxed?
I shift behind my mask 
Into myself I will collapse 

Fuzz feel 
IQ falling in the fuzz feel
Lose cohesion in the fuzz feel 
Chaos in your flow
 
Fuzz feel 
Storm warning in the fuzz feel 
Light is blinding in the fuzz feel
Shutdowns will come 

Fuzz feel
Can’t explain it in the fuzz feel 
Strange sensation in the fuzz feel 
Words don’t mean a thing 

Fuzz feel 
I’m eroding in the fuzz feel 
Lose ideas to the fuzz feel 
And then tension grows 

Fuzz feel 
Fuzz feel 
Fuzz feel 
Fuzz feel

Fuzz Feel
