Fit To Burst 03:27
CK: A tide went out and left Left still streets back Back when we cared And our fear inclined more More towards love Than it does today. fear into love love into fear SW: reflections of glass distortion I see you through a hole in the ground trees…….. little (the golden reflection of the sun) like a word with infinite meanings (a world….) a shadow that stretches forever no thought for the ears when the stars have all become satellites

Observe, be observed Wrinkles smoothing, fading Hasten to place pieces before imminent bereavement Mountains already climbed meant something but those ahead approach so fast CK

Finding I don’t know about you The world begins But you know I’m no longer human Finding I’m no longer here or there Human It’s funny what they say A whole face of reality And the physical elements I mean to say I’m no longer here There’s no way to make any sense of it How 'bout we do this another way There’s no ‘it' to be any more How ‘bout we do this a better way How ‘bout we do this we do this Somehow vaporised Force of introspection and doubt I’m no longer a thing Somehow vaporised Demystified Please I thank you Ja love I love Nothing to tell about how this could be Or if it was ever actually other It’s not about lifting a veil Or dodging an illusion (Suggest the echoes by chasing them away) Because however hard we think we think The thinking part is irrelevant There’s no way to know When you’re no longer human The first day of our eyes SW

Fear ate their souls and left a blank They steal what’s ours and sell it back Appropriate our inner lives in digital attacks They drive knives deep to pre-empt a tiny scratch Pile on debt, own us future and past They steal what’s ours and sell it back Before you breathed, should have thought of that They steal our world and sell it back What’s the profit from a heap of ash?

about

These remote recordings, which became songs, came about through a "virtual residency" during Covid 19 lockdown times. SW lives in Germany, JE and CK in the UK. Ideas, words, sounds, field recordings... over a summer that was very rainy in both countries, all were sent back and forth and eventually made a whole.
We received welcome support from the Goethe Institut.
