lyrics

I can feel the raindrops falling down
And all the time I’m falling to the ground
We’ll take flight through my window
Starlight is ours
By the light of the moon I hold onto stars
I can feel the raindrops falling down
(What you feel is a light emotion)
And all the time I’m falling to the ground
I’ll pour wine on these mountains
Comb through these clouds
On the other side of the world
Is my backyard
Garden of Eden spirited
Did it need to be protected?
I can feel the raindrops falling down
And all the time or calling to come down
In this silvery night light, stretch out yr arms
By the light of the moon, I hold onto stars
On the other side of the world
Is my backyard
Garden of Eden spirited
Did it need to be protected?
And when will we fly free
We’re still trying to become
In frustration, we came back
To the sea and to the land

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
