lyrics
Stunned n stuck, thunderstruck,
you’re a storm, oh you’re a trip
Overlooked your open book
You tried to hide, but the act would slip
I found love in a God I never knew existed
Does he know me, or just know my face?
...
Brown eyes, blue eyes,
They're green, I know, I see them all the time(?)
Colors changing according to the drug
See him in bright weather,
He lights the sun with his mind
I knew him from when he choked out words
I found love in a god I never knew existed
Does he know me or just know my face?
Know me, know my face
A crystal kind
Sparkling red, when your past is dead
And it is finally fine
With visions of car crashes
And those eyes
Know me, know my face
A crystal kind...
Stupefy me, my honey
For you I'll be an empty vessel
Fill me and take me anywhere, anywhere
Heaven or hell I don't give a damn
Heaven or hell well I don't care
And so if love fades, and fades my dear
Will our love fade and fade my dear?
See me blow away but you will never,
Never fade in my eyes
You will never fade in my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
Are visions, in my eyes
Car crashes, carved my lashes
In my eyes, car crashes,
Carve my lashes
(In my)...
So if love fades and fades my dear
Don't make it soon
So if love fades and fades my dear
You will never fade in my eyes,
you will never fade in my eyes
So if love fades and fades my dear
Don't make it soon
So if love fades and fades my dear,
You will never fade in my eyes,
You will never fade in my eyes
Layering guitars and saxes over synths and drum machines, this Oakland duo's darkwave is as melodically potent as it is texturally rich. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 1, 2024
