LYRICS:
I can see we’re thinking about the same things
I see your expression when the phone rings
We know there’s something happening here
No sense in dancing around the subject
Wounds worse when it’s treated with neglect
Don’t turn now there’s nothing here to fear
 
You can talk to me
Talk to me
You can talk to me
Set your secrets free
 
Silk degrees we’re dancing in the same vein
Loose lies and fully entertained
I always knew we would wind up here
All these calls are making my eyes tear
Suddenly last summer is so clear
They always will tell you what you want to hear
 
You can talk to me
Talk to me
You can talk to me
Set your secrets free
 
You look like a shiny star
Trapped in a tiny jar
Ain’t nobody got the time for scars
Looking at that mirror behind the bar
I respect your reflections
Aside from a few exceptions
Notice the majority authority
Be stepping into traffic with bad directions
I don’t wanna sound like another typical escapist
But I won’t protest if you wanna deviate away from the basics
If you think it’ll help we can celebrate your pain and your patience
They said Hell is made out of self-deprecation
Dressed up head to toe but never felt so naked
So fortunate there ain’t nothing to forfeit
And a torch gotta light it’s own course I guess
Nobody ever told you about the vultures and the hornets nest
I know you wanna move forwards
But you feel like an ornament
And everyone acts so supportive
The distortion sounds disproportionate
 
Talk to me
You can talk to me
Set your secrets free
I can see we’re thinking about the same things
I see your expression when the phone rings
We know there’s something happening here
No sense in dancing around the subject
Wounds worse when it’s treated with neglect
Don’t turn now there’s nothing here to fear
 
You can talk to me
Talk to me
You can talk to me
Set your secrets free
 
Silk degrees we’re dancing in the same vein
Loose lies and fully entertained
I always knew we would wind up here
All these calls are making my eyes tear
Suddenly last summer is so clear
They always will tell you what you want to hear
 
You can talk to me
Talk to me
You can talk to me
Set your secrets free
 
You look like a shiny star
Trapped in a tiny jar
Ain’t nobody got the time for scars
Looking at that mirror behind the bar
I respect your reflections
Aside from a few exceptions
Notice the majority authority
Be stepping into traffic with bad directions
I don’t wanna sound like another typical escapist
But I won’t protest if you wanna deviate away from the basics
If you think it’ll help we can celebrate your pain and your patience
They said Hell is made out of self-deprecation
Dressed up head to toe but never felt so naked
So fortunate there ain’t nothing to forfeit
And a torch gotta light it’s own course I guess
Nobody ever told you about the vultures and the hornets nest
I know you wanna move forwards
But you feel like an ornament
And everyone acts so supportive
The distortion sounds disproportionate
 
Talk to me
You can talk to me
Set your secrets free

Atmosphere - Talk Talk (feat. Bat Flower)

Gone West

LYRICS — “I Learned to Stay With the Quiet”

[Verse 1]
I wanted you to know
I learned to live beside it
Even when the nights grew colder
The walls stopped closing in

Nothing ever warned me
How silence could stay loud
Some things don’t disappear
They just change their shape

And I tell the others
I’m still standing
But that isn’t the same as whole

[Verse 2]
You never left a trace to follow
No unfinished goodbyes
Just a space where something was
That time won’t recognize

I learned to move carefully
Around what isn’t there
Like the air remembers weight
Even after it’s gone

And I tell the others
I’m adapting
Like adaptation isn’t loss

[Build / Reflection]
I was holding onto routines
That didn’t need belief
Someone who learned to function
Without expecting relief

Someone who stopped asking
What any of this was for
Thinking I was waiting for answers
When there are none anymore

[Refrain]
What keeps the heart alive
Can fracture the mind
What made sense at the start
Doesn’t always survive

[Chorus]
Do you feel this distance?
Do you feel this weight?
Because nothing stays heavier
Than love without a place

Do you feel this distance?
Do you feel this weight?
Because nothing teaches silence
Like something you can’t replace

[Post-Chorus / Hook]
It came like a presence
It left like a scar
Not something you lose
Something you carry this far

The days still move forward
The nights still repeat
I don’t stay because I hope
I stay because I breathe

(repeat)

[Extended Final Section]
No one rescues you from memory
Nothing trades for what was there
I would’ve given anything
To return to unaware

The world keeps asking function
While grief asks you to stay
Learning how to live with absence
Without turning away

This isn’t about strength
Or learning to be brave
It’s about continuing
With what was never saved

[Outro]
I don’t wait for answers
I don’t look for signs
I just live beside the quiet
And let it keep its name

(Remains, remains, remains)
