little bit of afterglow
separate from the moat
the cracks they start to show
in the form of stones
the dog in the street
chasing me in dream
catch fire to the streams
another time it seems
afterglow

Big City, Real Time
04:19
|

without a parting glance
some kinds of love just disappear
took off down the only road
to the place where everyone goes
to the big
city
gonna have a real time
half articulate
you're a daydream to be with
cloudy like a cup of mist piss
inhuman for an instant
so you light your cigarette
with a blowtorch to forget
took off down the only road
to the place you saw in shows
big city
real time
big city
gonna have a real time

discolored shapes
and jagged faces
stare through the clouds at me
As the night spills on the trees
A blue light paints the scenery
I remember the way things used to be
but I long for nothing
but what's in front of me
yet a distant unfocus
a spike in my eye
far off barks and guns
up and rattle the sky
and I try
primitive things swim through the dreams
and into the screens of machines
it rises up with panic and it glides with such speed
it takes on expression
that I cannot place or see
see
can you reach through
the midnight
and pull me in?

Hypnotic Take-over

often I have
these kinds of moments
of hypnotic takeover
takeover
turn my eyes to a lens
and in these kinds of moments
what do
what do
what do
you see for me?
when I look around
what do I see
curved spines
distant dreams
of falling to another
repose turns to run us
numbers are for scanning
going under
what do
what do
what do
you see for me

Images of Living
02:45
|
|||
|
a wind
I cannot feel
a maze
that conceals
a breathless exhale
a breathless exhale
the dawning of the triple sun
assailing constellations above
carmine alcoves
of hidden love
unheard laughter lurks beyond
and ever the mist of faces looks on
peering into the disk
a luster so pitiless
images of living
images of living

Engineer's Hammer
04:42
|

|
rest your head
in your hands
only those who understand
right now I think I should scan
and take that car to the land
half these days there's dogs that run
find myself a little sun
the road to somewhere's filled with guns
where I'm going
no one runs
I can't find it anywhere
I can't find it anywhere
I can't find it anywhere
so i...

Desperate Town
03:47
|
|||
|
on a black cloud made of dust
to make a house fall to the ground
to destroy a desperate town
without a key
silently
prisons open
so do doors
causing visions to appear
horses, dragons, dogs show up
meadows, gardens, mountaintops
description of a vengeance starts
to cast a spell upon the heart
to make a house fall to the ground
to destroy a desperate town
without a key
silently

It Seems to Desert You
03:15
|
|||
|
punished for the negligence
savor every walk across the bridge
running about
from place to place
it seems
it seems
to desert you
sound
reflects
and memory collapse
and end to the stitch
I knew it wouldn't last
to desert you

Anodyne
03:00
|
|||
|
you got me in the palm of your hand
another dragon from another land
taking solace in the anodyne
running out of time
you know I cannot seize or define
waltz across the sea to realize
taking solace in the anodyne
you're just coming down the line
I have drunk and seen the spider
distant vistas, reignited
taking solace in the anodyne
running out of time

This record is stunning. Such a niche sound from so long ago has not only been replicated perfectly - But even improved upon in many aspects. This is music for your soul to dance to, even if your soul might be in a dark place or somewhere lost. Close your eyes and let these dark and gothic tones fill you to the bone. And if you think the listening experience on here is one to write home about, see them live. These songs will become infectious and even more memorable.
