lyrics

I bathed myself in milk, and dried in the moon's rays.
Then I went out walking to the city where you stay.
I stood outside your window until you fell asleep,
and tapped at the frame to bring you out to me.

You rose very slowly and found me there outside.
Without a single word we began to take our stride.
We travelled in the moonlight with a special route in mind.
Trudging through the blueish snow, our bodies were aligned.

We were walking in the snow,
but things took a turn.
We were just outside the city.
Only you returned.
Only you returned.

My skin looked so beautiful covered with glistening ice,
lying there for hours just below your empty eyes.
Shortly before sunrise, your matter disappeared.
My frozen lips couldn't beg you not to leave me here.

We were walking in the snow,
but things took a turn.
We were just outside the city.
Only you returned.
Only you returned.
Only you returned.

Digital Dust

It’s difficult to pick one of Chris Oliver’s albums, because by the time I write this he will have recorded two new albums. He’s made a ton of them, so dig around his page and pick up several. Plasticstatic
