lyrics

I’m on a mission to feel
But someone else’s steering the wheel
This wagon jumps off the main track
I’ll be back
But not soon enough
I’ll be all but forgotten

sharing our separate beds
mind set where the sun never sets
We're not there, we're not halfway there
I'm a drop in the ocean

love is what you want
just keep your eyes shut
it migth pass you by
love is what you want
what makes a dream come true?
what makes a lie?
love is what you want, is what you want
love is what you want

planning the perfect escape
trying to not make mistakes
my ego get stuck in the way
When I thought everything was ok
You start foaming with hatred

waiting for three magic words
some easily overheard
have you heard
I was almost there
At the registry office

what is the one and only
for how long can you leave a door open
its a cold comfort
that we’re equally lonely
if you let me in,
might work it out

everything is alive
by Slowdive

supported by 4 fans who also own “Love Is What You Want”

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
