Tethered eye, stripping strings of light
Forestries of phosphorescence
Brother of mine stripping off the skin you have known
since this lifetime
Tethered eye, wrapping round my home is alive
shimmering in rainbows
The only place in the world, the bathroom floor you spent the night on
Was it puke or your face that was stuck on the tiles?
On my tongue, stacking skyward
Upside in my mind, turning pictures
I need to breathe in the universe,
hold in, until I am one with her
So I can explode, my traces pave new roads
Fill up a vacuum with sweet,sweet breath
Go explore
Let it fill your chest
"Can't wait to implode"
you spoke under your breath
Is it Carbon Monoxide or some young god
trying to tell me I'm not meant to go this far
And a voice is too small to cause such harm
But can you hear me all the way from here?
I know you hear me all the way from here.
Under my body he'll tuck his cold toes
while I watch the walls breathe from the comfort of my home.
This New Zealand group have a sweet glaze and an underlying toothiness that would have fit right in on mid-’90s alt-rock radio. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 1, 2019
