SEA 008 : Swimming Elephants - At The Zoo

A letter…

Lyrics:
— verse I
For another day I fall back into that cave I made
If there’s a better way
I’d have to clear out all these things I hate
— pre chorus  I
But I don’t mind
That it’s always near by
I think I like the pull
So I’ve been told
Any power’s not mine
Just let me fake control
— chorus I
Just so you know 
You’re lying if you tell yourself
The time we spent is something I don’t carefully turn
So much deeper
Than I could ever tell
Your fingers reach just like mine
But only dream to make em stop
— verse II
For another day
I run back
Into that maze I made
The more the better ways
I can find myself far out of place
— pre-chorus II
Her feather writes
I don’t want to define
But I can’t lose my hold
A different place
An impossible time
That’s where I call my home
— chorus II
Just so you know 
You’re lying if you tell yourself
The time we spent is something I don’t carefully turn
So much deeper
Than I could ever tell
Your fingers reach just like mine
But only dream to make em stop
— outro
I tried to live as someone else
But consequences move themselves 
There might be four of a kind
But I’ve seen which one I’ve got
Your fingers reach just like mine
But only dream to make them stop

First Demo

Written, Produced & Arranged by "Noirless"

Engineered & Mixed by Nabil Favian H.
Recorded at Als Studio, Jakarta

Indecisive

Lights out and we began to fade in
A hazy part of my brain
Doing something for things
That will cancel all the murky days
We'll never be the same

Though we are fools tonight
We'll save it forever

And now you're ensuring
You're in the strangest part of my brain
Loosing yourself whole, again

Though we are fools tonight
We'll save it forever

Slaves to our own selves tonight

Smaerd

Constant
Everything is haunted
Everything is haunted by
The feeling of unsafe

I fear nothing but the hollow
The hole I shouldn't follow through
The hole inside of me, inside of you

Fly me
Fly me to the bright place
The place where I can see my face
The clouds are turning grey

Is it okay?
Tell me that it's okay
Tell me that I'm safe and sound
Away from caving in

Why don't you let me find a home?
Why don't you let me dance alone?
Why don't you leave me on my own?
Oh why don't you?

I don't know
Why should I know?
Why should I go?
Oh it took a long time to tighten my grip While it took a little time to slip all over you

Sometimes i'm looking for the day
Waiting for a magic
I'm not gonna get it

So i get the words to say it all
So i get the way to say
I feel like i should wait
I used to be so down

Sometimes i'm looking at the sun
Waiting for a magic
I'm not gonna make it

So i get the words to say it all
So i get the way to say
i feel like it hits my eyes
I used to be so down

You know I've been there for a while
Yesterday is gone.. Yesterday is gone

You know i could heal the past
So yesterday is gone.. Yesterday is gone

The Cottons / It's Only A Day

We've been waiting for so long to make it happen, and finally you can hear our new song here. Debut LP coming really soon on January 2017. Thanks for sticking by for these couple of years, you're awesome!

Lyrics:

Regret
Stories i've been dying to get over
Remenisce incompetence
Of what i should have done
And i erase every line
On every pages i wrote down
Try to make it new again
But all of those can't be undone
And i said to myself
Somethings once you do
Can't never be undone
So i just write it off, write you off

You are mistake i desperately made
And i am tragedy you won't ever be
I wish you won't be

What's left behind me will just be memory
Remind me who i used to be
I know it's heavy the weight you carry
But i believe that you will be just fine

I've been dying to get over
Remeniscing tragedy
Prolonging anxiety
Try to hold a grip than mourning over guilt
Get over it

Writing another page
Things i'm about to face
I'm burying my own trace
It's only memory

Changing Pace

Write You Off

Hollow

LAZYROOM - WAITING UPON A PILLOW

I don't want anything
I just want that look in your eyes
I don't want anything
I just want that love from your heart

I promise, i promise
I promise not to act stupid with you
Not gonna say a thing
Can't you see i just want your attention

I don't want anything
I just want a place in your life
I'll do anything
I just wanna say that i like you

I promise, i promise
I promise not to act stupid with you
I promise, i promise
I promise not to act stupid with you
