lyrics

As I tow my mauled body
Through the playground
My little nuclear fallout
Will rain on your sleeves
If we are all potential carcasses
What do we do with all of
This time!
Running out!
Out of time!
Out of time!
Make an impression that counts
Forget to paint your face and just
Get out
Of your mind!
Of your mind!
Of your mind

We are not made in God's image
If so then I should look to you
Your teeth aren't straight
All lies are pathological
To an extent
Tell me how I should be
Read the manual to me

I am not a girl
My rocky horror romance (I'm a human being)
We shall burn at the stake
In colour TV
Not gazing at you, gazing through you
Gazing through you
Gazing through you

No private parts, no sexual dimorphism (Gazing through you)
Just two orbs on the world wide web
What are you performing day by day
What's your silhouette straight-legged
Circle skirt does it matter? Does it really matter? (Gazing through you)
How would you like to be addressed?
What's the meaning of sir versus madam?
A for affect feeling more than human (Gazing through you)
Sometimes less than human
I'd do anything to be content with the outer shell
B for behaviour tearing up my scabs (Gazing through you)
A nervous queer tremor
Arching my back and tensing to maintain the form
C for cognition thinking 'bout (Gazing through you)
Changing something and not knowing how
D for dying always dying (Gazing through you)
I'm looking for a way out

To See the Next Part of the Dream
by Parannoul

supported by 4 fans who also own “Dreaming of Flying”

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
