Red Tea

Saw you drinking red tea
On Venetian docks of Philly
I whispered your name
But it didn't sound the same
Gentle wind that graced my face
Push and pulls me to each place
And if only you knew where
Maybe then I'd catch your stare
Break down for nothing new
and the strays all bow to you
Howl out their warming tune
Rest now it'll all be over soon
Swear I've been here before
This time there's something more
Secret memories are ever fleeting
This dream just keeps repeating
Crush me under your wave
I'll make your shadow my grave
I know that I don't need you
I swear, that I don't need you
Break down for nothing new
and the strays all bow to you
Howl out their warming tune
Rest now it'll all be over soon
Rest child, it'll all be over soon

Dancing With the Sun

Are you far away
Too far to hold
Onto me, love
'Cause it's so cold
Where are you
now that it's done
are you dancing
dancing with the sun?
Did the stars
show you the way
or did you wander
in gamma rays?
In dreams I cross
Infinite planes
to see your smile
and feel your pain

Daydream

In every way you move
and the energy that seeps
from you straining smile
can't help but feel
denial
It couldn't be
Not you and me
as close as it might seem
a distant daydream
You're like me
can't you see
you're all I'd ever need
Just please, please love me
What do you know
that takes away the glow
from your frozen eyes
that captivate mine
It couldn't be
Not you and me
as close as it might seem
a distant daydream
What don't you see
In you and me?
you're all I'd ever need
Just please, please love me
My most treasured memories
are one's I've molded
and hoped would one day come true
someday with you

Your Voice

It's so cold but it's okay
Put it off another day
Left a note on down the way
The colors slip down into gray
If i could just hear your voice
I could see the spring
If i could just hear your voice
I could hear you sing
Oasis not far away
an old bridge in the haze
Water rushing to the bay
Hushed and lit ablaze
If I could just hear your voice
I could see the spring
If I could just hear your voice
But I don't hear anything

Sleep the day away
Where the pain won't reach
Ice cold fingers
Black nails that breach
A scarred conscious
A gloom spawning mind
Never to come back
No substance to hide behind
Dreamless in bed
A mind never rests
Haunted by shadows
And unwelcome guests
Weight on my chest
Crush the life from me
Astringe my sins
and leave me by the sea
ebony for bones
crude oil in my veins
bound to this place
by invisible chains
cyanose skin
a telltale display
will this be the end
or perhaps more pain
seeds left to grow
and entangle me
is it rooted in myself
is it a sun I just cant see

Sun Tunnel recommends:
Below the House
by Planning For Burial
PFB is relentlessly crushing; a little sweet, but a whole lot more bitter. Their live shows are a f***ing blast (a sonic one). Below the House is raw, cathartic, and a huge inspiration for me.
go to album
A major influence for the Wildfire EP. It sounds sad but the lyrics are cute and clever as heck. I wish this group was still around.

Like Author, Like Daughter
by Midwife
Haunting sounds to lie awake to.

The video for "Theurgist," from True Widow's forthcoming "Avvolgere," is as prismatic & hypnotic as the song it accompanies.

Plinky shoegaze-inflected guitar rock confronts the world with both nihilism and hope on the sophomore release Philadelphia band Knifeplay.
go to album
The first new music from Philly group Knifeplay, “Hurt Someone” is a dark-hued dreampop song with rippling guitars and ample shadows.
