lyrics

(like all seasons turn / none stays the same)

the timing and sparks / contorted by hand
the missing and pining / laid out for other seekers
subjection ahead / a taming of flight
that trembling reaction / keep luring us to be here

i have so much to say / things i never told / still won’t say a word / so nobody hurts
latent murmur to grow / grounds to traverse / stay here by your side / so nobody hurts

(somewhere we belong / somewhere in a song)

bewildered in tune / betrothal by june
in like of a ransom / each won another dowry
temptation is here / call all disarray
now vacant expression / once filled with joy and fear

i have so much to say / things i never told / still won’t say a word / so nobody hurts
i have so much to do / places haven’t gone / stay here by your side / so nobody hurts
outside open window / out by toil and grime / there is my resolve / there is my mind

everything is alive
by Slowdive

supported by 9 fans who also own “Sparks Were Real”

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
