lyrics

Turn it up, the resolution
We want the high definition
Spin the focus, zoom in on it
I see you, your light flickering
Across the lake on a clear day
With your laser at the bay, baby

You wanna catch the moonlight?
In a glass on a cool night
Test the water, is it alright?
Spit it out, I’m listening
You can say what you really mean
It’s on the table, coming clean

Hold it up, a level spirit
If you get tilted you’ll feel it
Keep it inside the double lines
There you go, causing trouble
Busting everybody’s bubble

Bubble

Can I get a little bit of your time?

If we get in the furnace
Crank the heat and let it burn up
Everything that don’t concern us
What is left? You’re still steaming
Smoke lifts and dust settles
White hot precious metals
White hot precious metals

Yeah if we jump in the furnace
All the heat on us burning
Everything that don’t concern us
What is left? You’re still steaming
Smoke lifts and dust settles
White hot precious metals
White hot precious metals

Probably my favorite album of the year, also probably one of the best debut album I’ve heard in a long time. The production and instrumentation are so gorgeous, the way a track can start from a simple quiet banjo and voice to grow in to something with synth and other instruments is simply beautiful. I hope to hear more from this artist. weehawmans6969
