lyrics

Closed my eyes and all the colors
Of the leaves already bled
In the vapors of the slumber
Fled the orange and the red
Now the beaver moon has shown us
Her enormous glowing bloom
All your sticks and earth are sewn up
You may retire to your rooms

Everybody’s gone to sleep
I don’t know where you are

And the hawk I used to talk to
And watch him spiral in the vents
Found a wife and then there was two
And away and off they went
Now the bed is feeling cold now
In the vacuum of the snow
here ain’t no one here to hold now
As the winter’s razors blow

Everybody’s gone to sleep
I don’t know where you are

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
