Sweeter than water 03:59

Give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life Hold on loose to the slaughter Give it up, do it right Got a minute? Talk to me, cough it up Interrogation by the third degree I smell a fight Something's brewing in the lane tonight Satellite send the data Crying emoji, react on VR Show our emotions on the state of the art A 90% chance of forgetting who we are Turn it off cos I wanna live Has it really got to be like this? Give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life Hold on loose to the slaughter Give it up, do it right Lying in the dirt A body overturned Tell me this, is that how we're doing things now? So give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life As above, so below I'm sure you know An augury vision is telling us that we're gonna blow So we light the fuse, we market it, we call it a show Streaming it live in the comfort of your own home Everything that has ever been must end Illimitable we are not my friend I feel the heat hit and the rage ascends Come on lets sing it Give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life Hold on loose to the slaughter Give it up, do it right Lying in the dirt A body overturned Tell me this, is that how we're doing things now? So give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life Are we taking the reins? I gotta know So tell me now before the feeling goes They've been telling lies And I wanted you to know it could be sweeter than this It could be sweeter than life So I say has it really got to be like this? No Give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life Hold on loose to the slaughter Give it up, do it right Lying in the dirt A body overturned Tell me this, is that how we're doing things now? So give us something sweeter than water Something sweeter than life

Meet me in the desert 02:57

Imaginary I did sell I kept a part of my own self I wanna build my own house And take the drink in my own mouth I've been feeling insane but why? I'm hearing choirs in the open sky I wanna take a drive, 55 Lying in my arms Lusting, drinking in the moonlight You didn't know me well Served me right I showed you hell and it felt so right Meet me in the desert yeah and we'll be fine Meet me in the desert We could follow the heat Hand in hand And keep one hand free to smoke pack after pack Our feet on the ground got us feeling so right Another memory of days gone by You didn't know me well Served me right I showed you hell and it felt so right Meet me in the desert yeah and we'll be fine Meet me in the desert Put a dollar in my top pocket and hold my hand through the dirt Meet me in the desert Who cares? Just forget me You didn't know me well Served me right I showed you hell and it felt so right Meet me in the desert yeah and we'll be fine

Chaos 25 04:02
lyrics

Sun shines right through on a freight bed Fifty thousand miles more let's make it Just one touch of the gold and it's amazing Or so I've been told I've had enough of that news It's been giving me the blues An uprising and a trip to the horizon instead And a general disregard for existential dread So get up now Getting up, getting lost in the minute oh No hesitation or the slightest superstition We're lost But we're living where the chaos lies So we project our apparitions in a roundabout way All the boys and girls I know they do it this way Yeah we're living where the chaos lies Another turn in the room Exclusive only to you Every opinion is doomed And every eye is on you So you wanted the truth? I'd say it's infinite and guised up Sweating at the trial that we're calling this life Speeding along at fifty thousand God only knows where the words have departed to The silent song is getting louder Pulling towards a life so far away Getting up, getting lost in the minute oh No hesitation or the slightest superstition We're lost But we're living where the chaos lies So we project our apparitions in a roundabout way All the boys and girls I know they do it this way Yeah we're living where the chaos lies Just once We were alive Show it what you want This life Think it just once Nah, don't think twice Yeah we're separate and paralysed Oh but that's just fine Cos we're living where the chaos lies Getting up, getting lost in the minute oh No hesitation or the slightest superstition We're lost But we're living where the chaos lies Yeah we're living where the chaos lies

Ghostin 04:32
lyrics

I'm passing over like a ghost The glitter and the girl out there Who they travelling with? I don't really know what's real But i'm buying in Flying in a golden sphere Cutting heads off Hold that pity, don't cry For the close up shots Are we all just coping with our fever dreams? I don't know Is it so exciting? Do you feel so cool? Tell me something new I'm passing over like a ghost City light Watch me go, disappear Vanishing into the night where the spirits go Take my hand, disappear The bottle really hit the ground spinning this time Turn the seasons off Take another trip on the deep inside Would it be so wrong? Checking and I've got no money But it won't be long Cut from the same cloth Hold it closer if it means a lot Synchronising this heartbeat Eternal light in this flame I'ma go insane Shrouded up in this darkness Hiding up in my brain Don't forget my name I'm passing over like a ghost City light Watch me go, disappear Vanishing into the night where the spirits go Take my hand, disappear

Bubbatrees Glasgow, UK

Bubbatrees are hard to pin a genre to. They began creating music that even in it's early stages was described as 'subversive from the norm in it's lingering, menacing textures'. The Glasgow based group set themselves in a league of their own with a combination of synths and punchy drums, being described as “Sonically powerful” and “Certainly ones to watch”. ... more
