about

From Soft Plastics' album 5 Dreams from Paper Bag Records 2020.

lyrics

Here’s where the sun was

You can feel where the sun was

Put up your palm on this eucalyptus tree

You’re reflected and renewed

The attics are singing

The hangman is singing

His contract’s renewed

I’m a poor boy from the siltland

Second singer in my uncle’s band

When we play the night right

Silver sounds right

From the devil’s nuclear moon

Swirling and swirling

The world’s wet swirling

In the fabric of the loom

And the beat is a temptress

She shall tempt us to tempt us

Into relations trapped in a tempest

Of the unanswered gloom

Green mists are rising

My violin is crying that my Uncle’s gone too

And the band is adrift, their wine I shall grift, and offer offerings

Up to the moon

Yet there’s some left for the Empress

I saw a postcard of her green dress

Apples and gardens and lanterns for the bards

That float on towers that bob on pontoons

Singing sweet songs in Spanish I long for a world in its noon

And the sun has done set and the courtyard I’d wet

And I have to be

Swimming on soon

(I hear the roar of)

The engines

Beautiful and heartbreaking album, man I just want to hug the Minotaur and take away his pain. When I think of music that marked me I think of this album. _parangon
