Collide
Whistles up and high
Too tall's the way to hide
On the chessboard great minds
Don't always think alike
Head-shaping crown
Triangle or round
Great minds on the rise
Don't always think alike
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide
Cast us aside
To your belt we're tied
Who's Jekyll and who's Hyde
We'll pick peroxide
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide
Give us shape and sensation
Give us faith and oblivion
Feed us what prophecies forecast
Alone in the dark
Plebeian, oligarch
On deathbeds great minds
All oddly think alike
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide
Cast us aside
To your belt we're tied
Who's Jekyll and who's Hyde
We'll pick thalidomide
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide
Give us shape and sensation
Give us faith and oblivion
Feed us what prophecies forecast
Lower the tide
To your belt we're tied
Who's Jekyll and who's Hyde
We'll pick cyanide
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide
A promise will collapse
Stardust will collide

Bakelite
Meet the satellite
Under broken lights
Let unwanted sights
Find common grounds
Or dry, walk upright
Never wondering what's yours or mine
All seeing eye
Be the judge and I'll strive
To fit in to fit into the plan
Improper unsold and gold
Paths to parallel lines
Tales forever untold
Will find a channel
Or dry, walk upright
Never wondering what's yours or mine
All seeing eye
Be the judge and I'll strive
To fit in
Gears kept pristine white
In coats of bakelite
Won't be safe from what
Is woken by the fire
Claws out
Never wondering what's yours or mine
All seeing eye
Be the judge we'll aim right
Straight and sharp
Fire
Claws out
Claws out
Be the judge we'll aim right
Straight and sharp
Claws out
Bewilderer

Daleth
Walking through the gates
Sand a sea of shapes
Please be closed be shut
As you ought to be
There rare she is
In ten feet bright red sheets
Her legs growing
Unruly
Long after she woke up
Up
Long after she woke up
Wake up
Long before I did
She walked up to me
Beyond reality's
Demands
My loneliest ear
Was delivered what seemed
The loudest breath coming
From nowhere
Neither from life nor death
Daleth
Long after she walked ahead
Long after she walked ahead
Long after she woke up
Up
Long after she woke up
Long before I woke up

Postmodern Prometheus
The world had a face
My one and only witness
Summoned me from nowhere
With stitches and a prayer
Unheimlich
Why is it that they all stare
Are we our mutual nightmare
Never been told where to go
I guess it isn't there
I'll run and hide
Crawl underground
I'm new and blue
Borrowed from you
I don't have a name
Guess I'm the one to blame
I'll believe them when they say
They're smoke and I'm the flame
Undesired
Am I no son nor the heir
And just a source of despair
Never been told where to go
They make it clear it isn't there
I'm new and blue
Borrowed from you
I'll run and hide
I hope I'm lost and found

Fender Bender
Gather round
Fathers bound
Your pride
Is our lie
Lanterns out
Don't need that
We ignite
At one sight
Crafting stars
Behind bars
The lighthouse
Comforts mice
Out of sight
Out of mind
Zone out
Restless child
Under water
Up the ladder
And down your wall
Warning sign
Live and loud
We're back
At your side
Closer
Fiercer

Stunning album and artist. Dark love. The best dark vibes in genre. I prefer the first works because they are darker than the last. We're waiting for her come back. Get well soon.

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of Haze
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.
