Lyrics:

*smiling* 
You’re magnified in light 
I watch you wade inside 
I’ll memorize the way the lake looks and your hands look in it 
I could trace a line around your shoulders and spine 
I fantasize, I wish you knew what I was thinking. 
I wish that you would hold me, without grace and ungently-- 
I wish you’d wrap me up tight, I wish you’d hold me inside… 
*still smiling* 
I could watch you dive,  
For the rest of my life 
I see you like a photograph, or a hologram when you CANNONBalL! and it splashes and the light catches--outstretched on the wet grass 
It’s obvious I want you bad. 
I wish that you would hold me, without grace and ungently-- 
I wish you’d wrap me up tight, I wish you’d hold me inside… 
I had doubts when you coaxed me out, I can’t swim so I float on my back.. 
I watch you butterfly from the corner of my eye I did not know you were so 
Good I wish you could teach me, I hold my breath to touch the bottom of… 
The lake I swear I’d stay,  
I’d stay 
I’d stay forever if you asked me to.

Music Interiors

New York-based producer, composer and sound artist Nick Zanca has been releasing music under the name Mister Lies since 2012. The project began in a Chicago dorm room with the release of a four-track EP, Hidden Neighbors – over the years, his music has inhabited a specific intersection between intimacy and atmosphere in a maximalist mosaic of field recordings, sample-based textures, glitchy synthetic soundscapes and nocturnal pop songs. Zanca currently lives in Queens and is a founding member of the band Quiet Friend.
