lyrics

In parted latitudes the starlight's hindered by
A moratorium for what we left behind
I'll be my enemy and you'll part out of sight
This forlorn universe sings redshift blues tonight

The long lost acuity your psyche sacrificed
A revenant entity laid down here by my side
I'll be my enemy and you'll part out of sight
This forlorn universe sings redshift blues tonight

Swim in the deep sea of molten flesh
Spread your parables all over my chest
Pain-fraught lungs underwater
Desolate oceanography
Nine months navigating and I'll fly above the sea
Of stars that tempest violently
Sparks of kindred orbs wash over me
Flickering sorrow ignites redemption's fuse
But how can a man sail this galaxy without staring at the abyss

I would voyage wide across the seven seas
To atone for the frail canvas I mend since
Ships sailing space sometimes see storms
And astray the winds sent me

I would hoist the whitest flag
Celestial body repossess
But your satellite can't escape
This catatonic tenderness
Beyond the veil I've searched for
Shadows of you
Before the red-eyed fractured you

I would voyage wide across the seven seas
To atone for the frail canvas I mend since
Ships sailing space sometimes see storms

To See the Next Part of the Dream
by Parannoul

supported by 29 fans who also own “Ships Sailing Space”

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
