A side of you I'll never see
This mystery that can't be solved
Dissolves the resolve in me
It slows my orbit down
Around the bend is where I live
Give me more than what I've found
What you've turned into
I'm afraid to lose
So we engage in a dance
A lance I hold behind my back
Attacks the dagger in advance
What you've turned into
I'm afraid to lose
I can't move without you
What you've turned into
I'm afraid to lose
What you've turned into
I'm afraid to lose
I can't move without you

My inner city blues
Like curtains drape over the walls
With you in my lonely room (lonely room)
I hear the ocean call
Imbued in misty views (misty views)
What I want can never last
I ride the tide the moon will sway (moon will sway)
To a day where my future is the past
I want you (the right way)
And there is only one thing I can do
Soon I know I will be back
To return to my state of matter
To obtain that jewel I lack

the water wars

I had been drenched in your thirst
A thirst you sang about to me
You drank, thought you had your fill
But I know you're dying, baby
Now here you are
In my reservoir
Here you are
When it's all that I have left
An elixir wasted
In our innocent shame
I will absorb what's left of my lake
Cry a waterfall out of view
Before you swallow me whole
I must pretend this world anew
Now here you are
In my reservoir
Here you are
When it's all that I have left
Lying in the dunes
Where mirages play mind games
An oasis poured over
Arid skin we used to bathe
An elixir wasted
In our innocent shame

lacrimal lake

|

|
Seeking shelter from rain
Underneath a weeping willow
My psychic tears become a reflex
When I look back in time
Submerged in my fears
Too many regrets are a future threat
I don't recognise my scene
When I'm drained empty
You'll see right through me
No, I don't recognise my scene
When I'm drained empty
You'll see right through me
I don't recognise my scene
When I'm drained empty
You'll see right through me
No, I don't recognise my scene
When I'm drained empty
You'll see right through me
Lady, take me to Avalon
Recover
What I thought was long gone
My lover

Soft Construction recommends:
If The Streets were darker and experimental. Brooding with wintery chillwave synths, powerful beats and cutting words.
go to album
Dense but cool, the EP feels like entering through a empty battlefield where you don't know which direction the shots flying above your head are gonna come from.
go to album
A jagged but pretty collection with lots of neat effects and warm, sweet personality. Listen for an exquisite fusion of noise and shoegaze and indie pop.
