Widowed Summer, I Sink

It's my obstruction in your words
That holds me close to you
Preventing some contingency
The folly of our dreams
I can't brand the tendencies
A fleeting industry
The grave pretender comes to you
Seeking casualty
The valley of a caustic breed
Resting in the sea
Depending on the marbling
Of festered plasticine
Moonlight-stifled breast of dawn
Inciting vanity
Gleaming off the blackened sea
Derangement on the brink
Wave on
Wave off
You don't have the curses
I know I'm the problem
Wave on, wave off , crashing
Widowed summer, I sink
I sink

Waking up in California
Running from your memories
It seemed like everything you took was all I had
Getting lost, it's not easy
Change your mind, don't come with me
Cause I don't know if I'll have the time to kill
You say that my love won't set you free
Despite your insecurities
I see you love them more than me
I guess, I'll call you back
Going to a circus show
Waves of colors ebb and flow
Everyone will wait for you by the Alamo
Taken by the Apollinaires
You run around, and envision dares
But your troubled mind would come to cease if you saw me there
You say that your love won't comfort me
Despite your insecurities
I see you love them more than me
I guess, I'll call you back
It's so sad to see them come and go
They say that even god won't know
I'll call you back
I'll call you back
I'll call you back
I'm coming back

Admired Someday

Everybody's got it out for you and me
They laugh and joke behind their irony
once was worshiped in the hands of your own disbelief
Don't you care what other people see
Talking to you, one afternoon
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Talking no one but me
with the wisdom that I just don't seem to have
I'll understand
There's no reason to be cross about it now
I wanna be the one to turn you down
With all these strangers in your house, it must be pageantry
Don't you care if other people leave
Talking to you, one afternoon
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Talking no one but me
with the reason that I just can't seem to grasp
I'll understand

Myoclonic Fall
03:54
|

I Lie awake as the meters run
And the changing states leave my body in place
After hours of lying alone in my bed
My receptors promote a fall from grace
A vacant corpse of a man in fear
Clinging in vain to his lucid phase
With suspicion about his weightless state
But nothing compares to the moment when he fell down
Now gasping for breath and conscious again
Just straining my neck with the chains on my head
Cry out for mercy, make it end soon
With the deafening winds, and a deep sense of dread
The weight on my chest has me helpless tonight
Surrounded by creatures that just want me dead
So submit yourself now, and prey for release
It's just a typical night for a sickly, gaunt young man
I thought I'd left too soon
Although I've never followed through on anything like this before
I thought I'd left too soon
But seizing is the means by which we break silence here
Sometimes I want to feel nothing
Sometimes I want to break something
Sometimes I want to feel nothing

Everyone says you looked so happy
Blowing out the candlelight you made a wish
If I can only see you now, If I was made to figure it out
Then I'd hang around and talk until you smile
Cause I know it's hard to say
Never thought it'd be this way
Tired of hearing that you're special
They're too dull to recognize it's far too late
Felt the knife before the dawn, cut you loose you're hanging on
And now that everyone's here for recompense
All of this is hard to say
I'll see right through you anyway
Yeah it hurts to play the game
I've seen that same mark across another's arm
You've been remiss are you not the first to talk
Walking around on a full avenue
You are the worst thing that happened, in your life
We stood up the night
We stood up the night
Yeah it sucks to be alive

The void it speaks though you've denied
Every time you close your eyes
What seemed like tears, your only crime
A vacant mass, a paradigm
The consequence of being alive
You deceive yourself
You deceive yourself
You deceive yourself
To relieve yourself
To relieve yourself
To relieve yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself
Tonight tonight
You conceive yourself
You conceive yourself ...a lie
Misguided by a soothing light
Forgetting you, a new demise
The pleasures feign, the sun is high
The friendly hue of cruel delight
Arranging me, the dread inside
You deceive yourself
You deceive yourself
You deceive yourself
To relieve yourself
To relieve yourself
To relieve yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself
Tonight tonight
You conceive yourself
You conceive yourself ...a lie
Casted in the sky
With sparks that won't align
The candlelight, it burns too bright
The only string that ties
The broken bonds at night
Were alive, and obliged
You deceive yourself
You deceive yourself
You deceive yourself
To relieve yourself
To relieve yourself
To relieve yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself
Do you see yourself

On The Pyre

A calm before the storm
Jaded and adorned
A blank society
Calling out to me
For those who are imbibed
Walk with me tonight
Ascending from a needle, you deserve more wine
Drink to our demise
A Juxtaposed delight
A never-ending plight
Callously afraid
Your mind will soon betray...your eyes
How can I explain
This manifesting pain... this time
A calm before the storm
Awaits us when we're born
Blind authority
Here to comfort me
Walking towards the light
But Something isn't right
Ascending from a fatal wound, devoid of life
I'll drink to our demise
A juxtaposed delight
A never-ending flight
The blood that's spilt today
Forgiven and displayed on trial
They'll let it wash away
Though everything was stained on file

Disparity

Waiting out the irons cold
Staring at the marigolds
The neck of woods, your haunted dreams
None of which seems real to me
The choice is yours to be made
We can all go out this way
The kindred soul when on to say
The shots are fired
The world will burn
No one knows to whom to turn
The ashes piled will soon degrade
And break apart
They'll break apart
We'll break apart
It'll break apart
No
Far away from the sun
A city trails against the night
We're the ones beneath the gun
Singing fades across the sky
You can run but you can't hide
Having said one-hundred times
This is when and where you'll die
There's nothing more, nothing less
Disparity can't count us bless
Everything that is alive
Will soon depart
Will soon depart
We'll break apart
It'll break apart

Dousing the cracks of labyrinth wounds
Memories fade this havens tomb to find
Carnival fires trail on by this ride
Simply a child on fever flight...for now
Hang tight
Call if you know the feeling, we'll make it out alive
Just for the sake of your undying goodbyes
Goodbye
Innocent shrines impaled I'm blind
Bludgeoning force of static lights... good try
Sandpaper walls to claw away the grime
There never was a mutual grace...for now
Hang tight
Climb if you see me running, they'll turn me inside out
Just for a glimpse of your profound goodbyes
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

You smile like the fall when it sings in the rain
without a refrain
Consigning the shores as you make your return
to a nephilim's bay
The sounds of the void the oblivion cries
but nothing remains
It's not like the cause was a means to an end
so don't be afraid
You were alone when I came back
A nestling crow with a helpless hand

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über. https://tortue.substack.com/i/140348114/slowdive-everything-is-alive-dead-oceans

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
