Eggs And Marrowbones

Call me unstable
But I wish I could disable
All the notifications
Don't try to hide it
You're a little bit excited
About the new information
Alright, let’s see it

It's all a shambles
Go mingle with the cannibals
They're not gonna eat us
Out of the loop?

An air of mystique

Grant me at least

This fantasy

We must be greater
Than projections from our data
We're the real generation
It’s just a fable
But I wish I could disable

This fantasy

Cut the cord, cut the cord
Pull the thread, pull the thread

All it takes is to pull a thread
And the whole thing falls apart
So draw the curtains against the world
And join me here in the dark

I'm at the stage
When I can finally entertain the notion
Of consuming human

Cut the cord, cut the cord
Pull the thread, pull the thread
Cut the cord, cut the cord
Pull the plug

'Dregs' creates a comforting atmosphere with acoustic guitar, violin, harmonium and vocals. Conflicting with this simple, dry soundscape we hear unsettling lyrics which describe a desire to dissect the physical body in order to find the answer to emotional unrest.

'Dregs' is the first single to be released from our debut EP “Human Remains” and is the smallest arrangement we see on the EP. anenome proudly engineer their music in-house, mixed by the great Cian Nolan (Lifts), mastered by Harvey Birrell

I am changed
Which is not to say that I have changed
So much as that I have been altered
Made different

I have learned
Which is not to say that I have learned
The grace to see these lessons as a blessing
Or as a strength

Time will take its liking of us all
Time will never, ever give it back
We are simple things 
Seeking simple things
Forever lying just beyond our grasp


All of us
Blind and unknowable
Struggling, stumbling

Friend, may you never learn how truly alone you are

I have learned
Which is not to say that I have learned
The grace to see these lessons as a blessing 
Or as a strength 


I am changed
Which is not to say that I have changed
So much as that I have been altered
Made different
