LYRICS


Come let me in
I'm soaked to the skin
And the wind begins to blow
The sand in the hourglass has turned to snow
But if you let me lie
Awhile by your side
I will go with you come the dawn

Where did they go
All those tomorrows
That turned and fled so fast
I've no plans for the future
Just for the past
I don't fear the fall
I don't fear it at all
But I call call call to you
Don't face this fall alone.

For blood still flows
Where once it flowed
Still flows though now so slow
I can't give you joy
But I'll take your woes
Widow
If you let them go

I should've stayed
If only to fade
Along with the photographs
Old age is a disguise you can't take off
How can you deny
The lure of these lies
And why why why
Won't you lie to me no more?

Blood still flows
Where once it flowed
Still flows though now so slow
I can't give you joy
But I'll take your woes
Widow
If you let them go.

LYRICS:

You did this to me
In a siege both soft and slow
The venom now runs deep
And the rivers overflow

You did this to me
At the ruin of the day
I still recall the scene
You wore green and I wore grey

You did this to me
Lifted the veil off your intent
Revealed the hole hidden beneath
Down and down it went

You did this to me
As the leaves began to fall
Exposed your heart and all its teeth
While shadows dripped from every wall

We returned to a world of corners
On a sea without a tide
Always trying to go forwards
But only ever moving side to side

And down in the froth and foam
Where we began to sink
I dreamed you'd been sculpted out of precious stone
While I was merely pen and ink

You did this to me
As the mad studied the sane
In all their grim varieties
Their endless shapes and shades

You did this to me
Yeah you did this to me
You did this to me
Yeah you

Botany, 'Dimming Awe, The Light is Raw' out September 18th on Western Vinyl

Under the Botany moniker, Spencer Stephenson creates rich psychological and emotional experiences through audio. When he started creating his own music at age 15, he was enamored with Four Tet, Stars of the Lid, Madlib, and Dilla.  In his late teens, he went through a heavy period of discovery with Psychedelic rock, Krautrock, and Brit-folk. "I started imitating a lot of those forms in my own music, sampling them sometimes, recording from scratch sometimes, but really just trying to bridge a gap between those worlds and sample-based hip hop, and I’m still trying."

On his latest effort Dimming Awe, the Light is Raw, the 27-year-old producer and composer continues dissolving the borders between his disparate-yet-beloved psych, hip hop, and ambient influences.  Unlike his debut LP Lava Diviner, which peaked and valley-ed through a narrative arc, Dimming Awe focuses on the artist's ever-unfolding, present state of mind.  As a former jazz student, spiritual/free jazz philosophy regarding what he calls “emergent” music has increasingly become a guiding light when he creates.  "The more emergent I let my music be when I'm making it, the more I like the result, it feels like a truer reflection.  I feel like I am getting closer to doing that with computer-made music," he says.  "This album is a document of what I do, not a statement in any explicit way. I feel like I'm moving closer to a jazz underpinning that I've always felt, philosophically more than aesthetically…making music feels more like exhaling as I grow older.”

Tontario X Leo Islo - Coexist

LAMP member Leo Islo joins forces with Tontario on an emotionally charged journey in 'Coexist'. The subtle crackle of a vinyl can be heard as Islo's soothing lyrics echo through the shrouds of a hazy, cavernous abyss. A soft piano chord calmly progresses resting underneath a thin layer of warm, ethereal synths that slowly crescendo into a collective auditory atmosphere. Soft shakers melt together with loose claps and other percussive layers to create an aqueous soundscape. The track looks to leave the listener with a renewed sense of clarity, unity and hopeful outlook on the world that is recurrently divisive.

Tontario's grasp for sewing the threads of talented vocal artists with delicate melodic compositions is acutely demonstrated in this latest collaboration with Leo Islo. The Finnish producer has clearly made his mark as well as a lasting impression on his audience that will resonate for some time to come.

Lyrics
strange nature.
to feel your tether.
strange to feel,
anything at all.

strange knowing.
the circle goes forever.
hard to tell-
if I was bound to fall…

spent my whole life.
chasing rainy weather.
in the rivers
and the valleys of my heart.

it took some time.
but now that were together.
speaking soft
your voice inside the dark…

— — —

cause in a new way.
in a new light.
we could be there.
on a new high.
and if it feels good.
if it feels right.  
as imperfect as love is…

— — —

Tontario x Leo Islo - Coexist

Come let me in
I'm soaked to the skin
And the wind begins to blow
The sand in the hourglass has turned to snow
But if you let me lie
Awhile by your side
I will stay with you until the dawn

Where did they go
All those tomorrows
That turned and fled so fast
I've no plans for the future
Just for the past
I don't fear the fall
I don't fear it at all
But I call call call to you
Don't face this fall alone.

For blood still flows
Where once it flowed
Still flows though now so slow 
I can't give you joy
But I'll take your woes
Widow
If you let them go

I should've stayed
If only to fade
Along with the photographs
Age is a disguise we can't take off
How can you deny
The lure of these lies
And why why why
Won't you lie to me no more?

Blood still flows
Where once it flowed
Still flows though now so slow
I can't give you joy
But I'll take your woes
Widow
If you let them go.

Widow

No lies
I've seen through them all
And looked out the other side
Over all those sorry goodbyes
We throw away
Like so many broken toys
Heaped up in a pile
With their painted on smiles

As we doubt
The beliefs we can't live without
Well they come and they go
Turning from icons to logos
And I
I talked to myself all my life
But my Self never once replied

I said Boy
The only thing that'll last is your shame
It'll cling and stick fast to your name
And remain
The one beast you can't tame
But have faith
Just not in myths

Sometimes
As I read between the rhymes
I dream of how to
Empty my heart of you
So I'm tense
Future, past and present
At the edge of his thoughts
A man sees all sorts
So I keep a picture of her with me
Although it's more of a diagram
But who gives a damn?

Because boy
The only thing that'll last is your shame
It ain't joy we measure love in
It's pain
And gain
And more of the same
But have faith
Just not in myths

{instrumental}

Because boy
The only thing that'll last is your shame
Your heart beats in time to the blame
That stain won't wash away
But have faith
Just not in myths

When my soul is weighed upon the scales
And I can pore over the souvenirs
Of all the years
I know some maps can show you too much
And some merely show you the way

Turn the keys in all the locks
Take the puppets from the box
Stop the cogs in all the clocks
Because a moment of defiance
Turned our magic into science
And I long to return
So come let's mend our tempers
Throw earth upon the embers
And cease to be, yet still become.

What goes on will go on
And on and on
But boy we don't go on
For long.
