The farthest you have come is here
with heavy desires
driving down like endless weight
pulled off the strings
clamoring downward
like lowered bass and haunted chello
closing the velvet tapestries
on this mournful set
(dim the lights)
your wrath burns brighter here
prideless warmth on glowing embers
that melts the wax
seals it inside
carried from my palms
where i lose control again
a haunting wave that sweeps
through your dreams
wraps around
memories and leaves
blank stares there is
nothingness in your eyes
close your heavy lids
and sweep your hair away
your forehead is wrinkled
with a hundred years of anguish
caverns filled with the darkest waters
night sweats that
drown you out and you
The farthest vou have come is here
with heavy desires
driving down like endless weight
(dim the lights)
your wrath burns brighter here
prideless warmth on glowing embers
that melts the wax
seals it inside
carried from my palms
where i lose control again
Smooth, sophisticated pop with neoclassical flourishes from the Berlin-based duo of Fabian Till and Birk Buttcherey. Bandcamp New & Notable May 2, 2024
This is a wildly uneven, unpredictable collection. And that is as it should be. From spoken word to rap to singer/songwriter acoustic to hard rock, this has at least one song for everyone. John Gaunt
