Big Thief - Time Escaping

Copied!

Electric waves a rush of energy
Silent river pouring backward eternally
Through the phase and touch of entropy
Old age and the beginner

To hit the stage and blush wild laughingly
Crush the rage and rush time tappingly
Called her name so much so vapidly
Dissolving in thin air

Turning in two (?...) taped up television
Into tunnel vision
Taking a new (?...) tactile as revision
Working in revision

Time escaping
Time escaping

There is no reason to go down alone
Through distortion secret telеphone
Separate contact sеparate
Poison in the ether

Swinging still incessant pendulum
Lavender nettle calendula
Separate contact separate
Drawing out the fever

Time escaping
Time escaping

Only the winter wind survives
After the heat rush feeds and thrives
After the bushfire burns and dies
Frozen and bitter

Desert ground so cold and clean
Spreading out like a magazine
Reading the dirt like gossip
What do the weeds say?

They say everything, everything everything falls through
Each dimension breaks in two
Like the two hands clapping
Like the two ? clapping

Everything, everything everything for free
As it all eventually
Turns to dust and petals
Molten rock and metals

Time escaping
Time escaping
