Second track off of Elmer & The Ceramic Trees fourth album, Isolation Masquerade.

Copyright 2019. Written, recorded, and performed by Robbie Haas.

Loveliness,
I've watched you sleep
Through a rain that's spanned across the centuries
Through the cool white noise I have heard you speak
From the undertow
I watch you sleep.

We're stranded in rivers where highways should be
The flow of the current's so bitterly sweet
Islands of dreams all succumbing to fate
And fall to the winds of your age.

I guess we'll have to pray for a holiday
For a holiday
My god what a waste of your holiday
Of your holiday

Loveliness,
I've watched you sleep
Through a rain that's spanned across the centuries
Through the cool white noise I have heard you speak
From the undertow
I watch you sleep.

So where was the sunlight when we were still young?
Now it's plastered on ceilings and spoken in tongues
How I cling to your ghost though it were some sort of god
In hopes that you'd break with a smile.

I guess we'll have to pray for a holiday
For a holiday
My god what a waste of your holiday
Of your holiday

Another holiday in the rain, hey, hey, hey. x

Song Comments

Expedition
Autumnal shoegaze with a voice reminiscent of Tindersticks' Stuart A. Staples. The song sports a mesmerizing fuzzed out atmosphere which gets better with multiple listens.
