No Lightning Fix

Swung out to the tiled plane
Stretching each direction the same
Under a purple sky, uncertain
I called your name
And I came upon a fountain of stone
The very same as on the shore back home
I look down to my reflection
A shimmering ghost
Among the rattling past
There’s a layer that packs
All the heat won’t let it go
A riddle crying to be told
And under that where the rattling never rests
There’s a sunken chest
You enter through a silvery door
I heard the innards are a cloud of smoke
You’ve seen before
I dipped my feet inside
Like Rome back in ’45
Violence and history
Have no boundary
In this light
And the water turned black and cold
And pulled me in by the toes
Into a thick, unending ocean
A million holes
Among the rattling past
There’s a layer that packs
All the heat won’t let it go
A riddle crying to be told
And under that where the rattling never rests
There’s a sunken chest
You enter through a silvery door
I heard the innards are a cloud of smoke
And no, no lightning fix, babe
No lightning fix, babe
And then underwater all alone
The purple circle of light above slowly closed
I climb down into my vessel
To sink below

Under an Ocean of Holes

Under an ocean of holes
With no sign of the lodestar
Dipped outside of the known arc
This vessel will crack before it blows
I’d have a moment to mourn ya
Through a window
Ooh, you can’t run from the spell
Ooh, no, you can’t slip out unheld
When it’s all premonition
On the edge of oblivion
And the whole sunken world is your cage
Whose death is this?
I’m dipping under the black
Beyond all going back
And repeating
Under an ocean of holes
I’m not sending a postcard
I ripped up what I owed ya
Now, way deep down on the floor
You know that I’m getting closer
To the silvery door
Ooh, you’re in the midst of the spell
Ooh, you didn’t slip but you fell
You cut up like a knife
Teeming with life
And were thrown to the bottom of the sea
Whose death is this?
I stepped out of the night
Into a tunnel of torch light
Heart beating

Good Timing
by Adeline Hotel
supported by 6 fans who also own “Tethers”
Big thanks to one of my favourite new blog discoveries Petal Motel for hipping me to Adeline Hotel's new LP for Ruination Records. Like a vivid & most pleasant dream, guitar notes suddenly appear twinkling all around, before slowly settling into a snug, winter warming ambient folk blanket. Honestly this album has made my weekend.
