Floats Away 02:42
Oblique incoming wind Squeezes water along the coast Generates a current Sediment move by your lifetime Buried at high tide Tied in to every place you ever lived or been Far and near, you always felt that you never belonged here Some people hold onto the edge Some bob in place for hours on a calm sea But that's not me I like to sink Let the riptide carry me On a black sea Tied in to every place you ever lived or been Far and near, you always felt that you never belonged here

The Wounded 03:20
I didn't think that you would fall back That you would walk back All the things, instead I'm cut up and needy Tied it off just to stop the bleeding Wrestle with your pain, Wrestle with your wounds I wiped those tears for you Turn on me, I turn on you A hostage, love's prison Disappear without a reason Life passes through this prism Is this what's love's for? I have to be really sure Is this what's love's for? It's always leaving me wanting more What's love for?! I didn't think that you would come back Regressing and unraveling I'm tied up in your arms No promises, I can't stay for long Wrestle with your pain, Wrestle with your wounds I wiped those tears for you Weathered your changing moods A hostage, love's treason Disappointed for no reason No light will leave this prison Is this what's loves for? I have to be really sure Is this what's loves for? It's always leaving me wanting more

Morii 04:02
It’s in your head One more round and back to bed For years you’ve waited here in silence You’ve had your doubts you’ve stood your ground This is the moment you’ve been waiting for Get your things together Only take what you need You’ve had this feeling forever And you’re about to jet, run for it Run for your life, you have your pride, It’s all you have, you’ll get through this Ya, lipstick, rear view kiss It’s about High time, gotta live your life It’s all you get, just run with it You got the top down, you’re rocking out It’s in the way you talk subtle inflection’s off You’re unsettled And you bide your time, watch the clock This is the best chance You’re at your bottom This is the moment you’ve been waiting for Get your act together Only take what you need You’ve had this feeling forever And you’re about to jet, run for it Run for your life, you have your pride, it’s all you have, you’ll get through this Ya, lipstick, rear view kiss It’s about high time, gotta live your life It’s over now Driving through the crowd with the top down You’re rocking out

Clarion Call 03:12
I'll make the case Rewire and captivate I'll put the work in and believe ID'ed the problem and it's me Before I go I hear the sound, it's a warning To reach for higher ground I hear the sound, it's a warning Try to be still Draw a black line like a tattoo And then it's real It's taken shape To relieve the world undercover Of it's fate Before I go I hear the sound, it's a warning To reach for higher ground I hear the sound, it's a warning

There was a sign Everywhere I looked it’s dark times In the state of disillusion I turned away from everyone I walked my own path I drew a circle, it leads me back I will never give into The false gods that got a hold of you It was just a series of bad days I went through what you’d call A nervous phase I sought refuge in a cleansing fire Awakening, a soul inspired It was just a series of bad days I went silent and I lost my faith I was drawn to a violent sea And stood in the waves As they washed over me I tried to anchor in every port Each one cut the cord I knew as I fell apart I’m the captain of the lonely heart

Signals 03:18
You were blinded I covered both eyes Couldn’t see all the way Through those patterned lines You breathed in in excited surprise Then a swell of screaming That was way way too loud We were here for just a moment Life was hard but beautiful We are all antennas pointing up at the sky Sending our signals back home We are all spheres of light Energetic beings in temporary bodies We vibrate when we get close to a light A cup of colors and loud

Loose Ends 03:21
It’s a rupture that defines us every time A thinning out that separates the weak The weak from the desperate A substance, a message, That calls you back in time Everything you put out, come back to you I find loose ends and tie them But still makes no sense If you want to see, I’ll show you I can understand them but I can’t hold them together, forever A fragment, a loose end, Not every story gets a happy end You pick up the pieces as you go And know yourself when it’s raining fire A perfect liar that’s fo sho

about

Postlooperish New York

Enigmatic Post-Punkish Postlooperish seizes the tormented pathos and the emotive tension of trailblazer ’80s bands such as The Cure and The Chameleons, at times haunted by murky undertones, with a right measure of hypnotic rhythms, sparkling guitar work, evocative melodic synth elements, boosted by an alluring and poignant vocal delivery. ... more
