[Chorus]
Headbanging in the mirror
Wish I could see so much clearer
Just let me come down from this speedy
Afternoon interior dream
[Verse 1]
In my late twenties
I flew to LA
Born in New Jersey
I drove on the highway
Working nine to five
I won't play that game
When you caught my eye
I wasn't the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Now they're headbanging in the mirror
Now I can see so much clearer
Just let me come down from this speedy
Afternoon interior dream
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Headbanging in the mirror
And I can see so much clearer
Don't ever let me come down from this
Afternoon interior dream

Into The Sky

There's no way to realize
How long you will be lonely
When will you change your mind?
The water is running dry
Remember December
And you'll know why
The winter it lingered
On into the sky
December you made me try
I tried to change your mind
You never told me why oh why
Why you're never at my side
Remember December
And you'll know why
The winter it lingered
On into the sky
But now winter is over
And spring's close by
I hope you've come around
And changed your mind
The months keep rolling on
And you'll never wait so long
There's no way to slow down love
In fact it only speeds up
Heaven't Room
Oh! I spent the afternoon laying in Heaven's Room
Last night in the evening, I confessed my sins to you
Mary watched me from above
Spend my days in misery
She offered me a room in heaven
Saving me from grief
Oh! now I’m perched up high above everyone
In a big white cloud

St. Catherine
03:18
|
|||
|
Nothing less and nothing more
Don’t know what else to do
Disintegrate into the light
And I’ll fall right into you
It’s a pair of eyes
What a novelty
I’ll distract myself
From the fantasy
Blinded by the light
There’s nothing more to see
St. Catherine comes alive
The image of an angel sighs

The Laughing Woman
03:27
|
|||
|
Laughing woman do you worry about anything?
Nothing seems to bother you not even your bad knees
Your husband is concerned with your behavior
He’s upset
He sits by the window with his head inside his hands
Can you stop thinking life’s a joke
When you know everybody hurts
Pretending everything’s just fine
Leaving your dignity behind
Maybe the laughing woman’s been right along
Her husband just brings her down
But she just rides along

Surreal Exposure

[Verse 1]
Surreal exposure when you come over
It's crimson and clover
Keep my composure
When you told me lies, I wasn't surprised
Time wasn't right
Now you're [?]
[Verse 2]
There's a chance you'll never know
The pain that I had to let go
I feel it running through my veins
And temptation I can't explain
[Pre-Chorus]
Something in your mind changed in time
And I just don't know why
But I'm not asking why
[Chorus]
Surreal exposure is billowing over
I keep it in my mind
Don't leave, don't leave me behind
Soundtrack to my life
I'll see you later tonight
Until then, you'll realize
There's a reason we are alive
[Post-Chorus]
Surreal exposure is billowing over
Surreal exposure, it's billowing over

There's a temporary tracing and light ink
On the ceiling of the only train running underground
I read the first few lines
The characters are fashionable
They never speak and they look away
When I read their words out loud
The music and the dance in the stars
[Chorus]
Pictures are real
Here where your face is so close to the window
No questions asked
Millions of pages that fall out
From the top of the tallest buildings
Tell me your story
[Chorus]
Pictures are real
Here where your face is so close to the window
No questions asked
Millions of pages that fall out
From the top of the tallest buildings
Tell me your story
Pictures are real
Here where your face is so close to the window
No questions asked
Millions of pages that fall out
From the top of the tallest buildings
Tell me your story
[Verse]
There's a temporary tracing and light ink
On the ceiling of the only train running underground
I read the first few lines
The characters are fashionable
They never speak and they look away
When I read their words out loud
The music and the dance in the stars

I’m sending out a picture of myself
Cause you never return
My calls and texts don’t get to you
I just wish to hear from you soon
Until you do I’ll wonder how you
Spend your days & who’s in your arms
You can take yourself away but I will
Still be here today
When I drive past your house at night
The streets illuminated light
Who’s in your room, who do you talk to
It’s all in the past, my feelings for you
Once in a while it goes away
The thought of you it fades
And every time I look for you my heart just pulls away

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way).

everything is alive
by Slowdive
supported by 5 fans who also own “St. Catherine”
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
