If you think the title says it all, you have no idea. What is this you might ask? Well it is the most beautifully written song ever composed in my opinion. It's the song you wished you wrote. The one that you can play over and over and over again.
A few months ago Imar brought 'Radical Face' album name: ghost, home. I have never been the same. It is beautifully written (already said that) with a stunning mixture of compositions from an artist with crazy poetic lyrics. Very different and VERY deep.
My favourite of all is "wrapped in piano strings". Below are the lyrics
I saw your father in the hall.
His ghost is living in our walls.
I heard him crying while you slept.
I heard him breaking things after you left.
I watched you crawl into my bed, with curses spilling from your head.
You said "We're just the walking dead."
So I pulled the trigger and we floated off.
Into the air
I used to worry about the time, but I lost my teeth along the line.
So I carved the apple from my eye and gave it to you before I went away.
Blood ran into the kitchen sink.
Your hands and arms were running pink.
I sat and watched you as your rings slipped off and rolled across the kitchen floor.
They cut your eyes wide open, and bore into your precious head.
My reach don't got hat far, dear. But please, oh please, don't let them in.
I sank into the sea wrapped in piano strings.
Few words could open me.
But you knew them all.
Now I just sleep beneath your floor,
and my ghost just tries to keep you warm.
I've seen the end; I've lost the war.
And one day you'll join me here just like the rest.
I hear the engines.
They're roaring in our mouths.
Those metal creatures are clawing tooth and nail to get out.
I see the airplaines. (that's how the artist spelt it)
They're pouring from our chest.
They fill the air.
And burn and bury you just like the rest.
