lyrics

It was the first forbidden curse
To unfold you
On your knees, a blackthorn tree
Did behold you
On the brinks, you play between
The right and the taboo
I would go, confess it all
But I don't know you

I heard the song
It was shaped beyond
Recognition but still rung clear
The blush it paled
From the storm it weathered
Sails soft and sheer

Oh, an apparition, it stands by
Follows where you go
Like a bidding of a rose
A baiting of a ghost
Like a blush
Slowly hushed
Let it hold you
For the rush
It silenced us
But it holds you

Let it hold you
Let it hold you
Let it hold you

Fallen horns, broken thorns
I'm the one who
Digs up bones, paints them all
I will show you

I heard the song
It was shaped beyond
Recognition but still rung clear
The blush it paled
From the storm it weathered
Sails soft and sweet

Oh, an apparition, it stands by
Follows where you go
Like a bidding of a rose
A baiting of a ghost
Like a blush
Slowly hushed
Let it hold you
For the rush
It silenced us
But it holds you
Let it hold you
Let it hold you
Let it hold, let it hold you
Like a blush
Slowly hushed

Let it hold you

everything is alive

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 Daniel Welsch
