Track Lyrics

A Short Term Effect Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Movement, no movement, just a falling bird
Cold as it hits the bleeding ground
He lived and died, catch sight, cover me with earth
Draped in black, static white sound
[Chorus]
A day without substance, a change of thought
An atmosphere that rots with time
Colours that flicker in water, a short term effect
[Verse 2]
Scream as she tries to push him over
Helpless and sick
With teeth of madness, jump, jump, dance and sing
Sideways across the desert, a charcoal face bites my hand
Time is sweet, derange and disengage everything
[Chorus]
A day without substance, a change of thought
The atmosphere rots with time
Colours that flicker in water, a short term effect
A short term effect
[Outro]
An echo and a stranger's hand, a short term effect
An echo and a stranger's hand, a short term effect

The Hanging Garden Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In the hanging garden, please don't speak
In the hanging garden, no one sleeps
[Refrain]
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)
[Verse 2]
Catching halos on the moon
Gives my hands the shapes of angels
In the heat of the night, the animals scream
In the heat of the night walking into a dream
[Chorus]
Fall, fall, fall, fall into the walls
Jump, jump out of time
Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky
Cover my face as the animals cry
[Refrain]
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)
[Verse 3]
Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In a hanging garden, change the past
In a hanging garden wearing furs and masks
[Chorus]
Fall, fall, fall, fall into the walls
Jump, jump out of time
Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky
Cover my face as the animals die
[Bridge]
(In the hanging garden)
As the animals die
Cover my face as the animals die
[Outro]
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)
(In the hanging garden)

Cold Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Scarred, your back was turned, curled like an embryo
Take another face, you will be kissed again
I was cold as l mouthed the words and crawled across the mirror
And wait, await the next breath
[Refrain]
Your name like ice into my heart
[Verse 2]
A shallow grave, a monument to the ruined age
Ice in my eyes and eyes like ice don't move
Screaming at the moon, another past time
[Refrain]
Your name like ice into my heart
[Verse 3]
Everything as cold as life (Can no one save you?)
Everything as cold as silence (And you will never say a word)
[Outro]
Your name like ice into my heart
Your name like ice into my heart
