lyrics

Falling in spears; your light is marking the tombs out for your mice and your insects. People you know. You say, "You have your festival, Just leave their hearts..." - El que acomete vence. Leave them inside. Fingerprints smeared in eclipses. Black crescent moons
smothering our Virgin Mary's face in the church. Couldn't tear her down; they couldn't work the nails from the walls. You're heating embers for their stomachs. Open and drain out your youth. But he says, come on and throw me off of my palace roof. All you flowers,open and drain out. Even in, in the dream, you're still dreaming of. Even in, in the dream, you're still dreaming of somewhere else, and...so they cut new Mary with their nettles and skulls. Blood and their seed dough and feathers. You say "Is this war", while you heat embers Collect your harvest of dead. But they still know what you're thinking; they're gonna be right. Cos they get right behind. They get right behind and ahead.

Everything rings out with gentle loss nothing to hold, hanging below.
Still I can't shake the idea, it's why they're so, so, afraid of the horses now the stable's is on fire.
All of us spread out for miles - nothing to hold, hanging below.
Nothing but new clouds arms outstretched like you'd reach for your mother to carry you home.

about

Thumpermonkey London, UK

A person in space, walking, or adrift, but safe, exploring, freedom, discovery.

A clockwork piano contraption, like a giant ballerina box, but turning a big totem pole, around which smart office dressed people slowly dance with dead glazed eyes as a slightly out of tune slow Satie-like Lydian melody loops round.

White men in pith helmets hunting large animals to extinction.
