Moonage Daydream (Bowie)

Rare Creatures
Lyrics D. Smith

when the light hits inside your eyes
and you're looking like you do
never thought we'd make it

when I looked into the sky on a night like this
never thought we'd make it to this place
it's true

on a night long before I knew
myself
still lost

and the light told me you were there
but on the other side of the world

when I looked into your eyes
on a night like this
never thought we'd make it to this place
it's true

can you attend the fire?
is it enough to keep us warm
from the certain coming storm
when all the lights go down

will you walk with me
wanna walk with you
till the end
till our dust is in the stars
hand in hand
this rare creature that is us
till the end

Rare Creatures

Stars Fall
Lyrics D. Smith

straight lines
turn your compass east
caravan trail
filled with starlight

unkind 
dunes go back too far now
roll away
fade away from vision

and you know it's there

if you don't know where
you can see it shine
in perfect silence
yeah, so quiet

and you take my hand
stars fall like apples
in perfect silence
yeah, so quiet

and you know it's there

let it go this time

Just Go

Still
Lyrics D. Smith

insatiable like a hungry animal
like a prophecy that you self fulfill
it's lonely when you go behind your eyes
did you know each time, a little part of you just starts to die?

I know you can't hear me anyway
trying to fill that hole inside
like a splinter it cracks
and you are gone

pace yourself, you don't even know yourself
just take your time, you can always stop tomorrow
it beckons with a promise of still
did you know each time, you were made for so much more than this?

I know you can't hear me anyway
trying to fill that hole inside
like a splinter it cracks
and you are gone

the rush inside

and they tear you down
the walls with no sounds
it's a lonely ride, when you're trapped inside
just break this down and rise
break this down and climb the sky
rise
and climb the sky
like a flame

Still

Tonight
Lyrics D. Smith

feels like it's always my first time
I can't remember when this ever was
we laugh so hard it's like our heads are gone
sometimes I feel like I could die

now I lay me down, we'll look into the stars
just hold my hand, it's what I never had
if we get lost I'll look into your eyes
no lies

tonight we'll set the summer sun on fire
tonight we'll ride into the sea
tonight they'll never say those words again
tonight the road is you and me

now I lay me down, we'll look into the stars
just hold my hand, it's what I never had
if we get lost I'll look into your eyes
no lies

meet me outside when it gets dark, go down to the shore I'll see you there
take my hand don't ever stop we'll fly away, just don't look back
who are they to shut us down, you know they'll never understand
take my hand don't ever stop, our love is gonna live forever

c'est l'impression d'une premiere fois
je ne me souviens plus comment c'etait
on rit si fort que nos tetes s'envolent
sometimes I feel like I could die

now I lay me down, we'll look into the stars
just hold my hand, it's what I never had
if we get lost I'll look into your eyes
no lies

Tonight

Monkey Scratches
Lyrics D. Smith, P. Faivre

he wants the money, she wants to party
is it a hole or a wall?  last call
nobody's on the throne just the old dirty crows
it always goes the same way

a mortal machine, disintegrating view
crown the ideal, let the cities feed
oh such brittle stars, they're heading straight for Mars
spark up the tinder, make the most before it's gone
a voice inside your head no

we just don't wanna see, I don't know why
makes me wanna scream into the sky
monkey scratches, you throw it all away

grand slam pay dirt, don't even reach those itches
a riot inside, the fire this time
oh such brittle stars, they're heading straight for Mars
spark up the tinder, make the most before it's gone
a voice inside your head no

and the people cried
they cried into the sky
but there was no one there
there was no god there
no one to save their wretched skins
we threw it all away

monkey scratches
don't even reach my itches

we don't wanna see, the monkey don't know why
makes me wanna scream into the sky
monkey scratches
you throw it all away

Monkey Scratches

Toxic Overload

see them slowly drowning like dying dogs
see the castles in the air lying wasted
by all the baby-kissers with their dirty hands 
they got their souls in the pockets of the syndications

no no don’t knock she don’t live there no more
oh my love these are the spoils of war 
they pimped her out like a super sexy whore

oh my sugar then you know what you have to do
you felt the chill in the air for a long, long time
it cuts your flesh like a knife, like a splinter in your brain
that you don’t have to let them bleed you

see them rush and hustle like tiny ants
see the dispatch broadcast faking
when glimpses of the naked truth have been dissolved
they got the swindle down, it’s free for the takin

no no don’t knock she don’t live there no more
oh my love these are the spoils of war 
they pimped her out like a super sexy whore

oh my sugar then you know what you have to do
you felt the chill in the air for a long, long time
it cuts your flesh like a knife, like a splinter in your brain
that you don’t have to let them bleed you

make them bend down, make the stand down
make them turn this around
said you don’t have to let them bleed you
you don’t have to let them bleed you
 
they bleed you


Bleed You

Static People is germinated in post punk/alt turbulence, a mix of dirty pop and melodic indie swells with a lush and urgent voice flying above the riot.

“For a performer who defies facile definition, Smith does boast a single defining feature – her voice, which she wields with virtuosic command…with a natural warmth that adds a sultry dimension to the band’s challenging, punk-infused arrangements.” –Bullpit Magazine, LA

"The Late Projectionist brings us deeper into the mind of singer Dmitra Smith…painting vivid pictures of the goings-on of a haunted mind.  With top-notch recording and an album full of hooky songs, all they need now is the right company backing them to finally shoot to the top!"  --Vandala Concepts, Canada

“Static People are destined to be your next favourite band. They combine distorted greatness, old school punk vibes and a touch of noisy indie – you need them in your life. --Somojo Magazine, UK
