just for one moment
the words said it all
laid out before us
on a page in a hall
I feel we're intruding
that this grief just is not mine
but I just wanted to say
that you have touched me inside
as the walls close in I see
an open well before me
the written word
all we came to find
so now we're here at last
on an afternoon in may
in the world outside this room
it's just another sunny day
and this atmosphere it cuts me in two
I'd like to touch the paper
but the glass won't let me through
and now all I can see
an open well before me
the written word
all we came to find
and if the walls come down on me
down an endless hole I'm falling
to see at last
all we came to find
(for Ian)
judas you are my angel
you must be my guiding light
a hero for every failure
no gift of second sight
ceremony's over
watch the sand slip through your hand
to fall and not recover
at all
remind me to go on
when everything I have is gone
the summers take to long
this summer took too long to come
you will be my weakness
all the things I've yet to learn
no sign of your forgiveness
a fire that will never burn
resistance is so useless
you know I've heard it all before
the situation's hopeless
can't take much more
remind me to go on
when everything I have is gone
the summers take to long
this summer took too long to come
ceremony's over
watch the sand slip through your hand
to fall and not recover
at all
when you've come so far
you kind of get the feeling
you're never coming back
down on the shore
while the electric sea
melts and flows in front of me
run out across the sand
with a gun in your hand
you've got no reason
don't understand
now you're looking through me
you just can't see
there is something I can do
I know what you want from me
but being your saviour is not easy
so we take the fall
and the water's spirit
runs between us
old man on the shore
staring out to sea
you know someday that could be me
you sit down on to the sand
with your head in your hands
you've got no reason
don't understand
now the pressure's on me
to make you see
that the joke is all on you
I know what you want from me
but being your saviour is not easy
I know you believe in me
but being your saviour is not easy
I know you believe in me
but being your saviour's just so hard for me
you focus a need in me
each time i close my eyes my mental picture of you comes through
building up always up in my mind as i lose all sense of time
if this is my own design why am i second guessing every line
has someone turned the world around or am i just upside down
cause i can't stop seeing more than i should
in the centre of a minefield with a nail through each foot
i can stand up and i can't sit down
i'm looking for the answers or some common ground
a secret i've yet to find, don't know where this path is leading to
is this the stairway to heaven or hell, from in here i can't quite tell
receiving the clearest of signs, how the interference leaves behind
a trail of destructive desires...i reach out to stroke the fire
and i can't stop seeing more than i should
in the centre of a minefield with a nail through each foot
i can stand up and i can't sit down
i'm looking for the answers or some common ground
your secret's out i'm coming down
you'll never guess what i have found
your secret's out now i'm coming down
you'll never guess what i have found
i can't i can't i can't stop seeing more than i should
i can't i can't i can't stop seeing more than i should
i can't can't can't can't can't
i can't stop seeing more than i should
i can't i can't i can't stop seeing
tearing down the walls
twisting in my bed
sliding down into the fog
and now my veins are glowing
staring into space
nothing in my head
slipping in and out of a coma
when you scratch the surface
I feel cold
when you scratch the surface
of my soul
I find I'm suffocating on thin air
aching for a moment that was never there
and the legion leaves it's aftermath
like a lost soul...a lost soul
despite the reasons
committed treason
locked away for days
for the things I had to say
takes some believing
you change with the seasons
the blood turns to ice under my skin
when you scratch the surface
I feel cold
when you scratch the surface
of my soul
'cause I'm suffocating on thin air
aching for a moment that was never there
and the legion leaves it's aftermath
like a lost soul...a lost soul
give me a wish, a wish for this
a non-violent planet
a second wish in case I miss
a non-violent planet
three wishes...I'll nail it home now
a non-violent planet
a non-violent planet
a non-violent planet
a non-violent planet
god a non-violent planet
god a non-violent planet
god a non-violent planet
god a non-violent planet
god...

Their second album and along with "Hex" another masterpiece, music of extremes...dark, soft, huge, angular; a trip of a record, one to listen to alone on a big set of floor standers..just magnificent. Procession
Chantal's solo debut is a thing of rare beauty, her songs are a world into themselves, her gentle guitar is augmented by fellow creators including Nils Frahm, who adds magic piano touches...perfect. Procession
A great place to start...all of their second period ep's gathered into one album, wildly inventive and with no musical stone unturned; then go backwards or forwards from this point...it's all awesome. Procession
This Tulsa group's shimmering, classic dream pop has the sound of iconic touchstones like the Pale Saints and New Order. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 9, 2024
