about

Our deepest most alien fears live all around us all the time, separated from us by a paper thin wall. A deep abyss subtends the lulling surface of the sea, a whole unseen dimension and monsters live there. If you sit up in your hospital bed and meet the devil (he tells you he is god), watch the great ocean road crushed into the sunrise under burning rubber tires, return to everyday life knowing people’s eyes want to jump off their faces at any opportunity.

But TRUST IS REPLENISHED, and ancient history reaches an invisible hand to guide on the slow incline to peace of mind. Swim through the noise and sprouting through the chaos are transient modicums of bliss reminding you that heaven is just around the corner for those who are looking.

lyrics

Hearts glow
Wind blows
Sunset
Overgrown
Mystery
History

Caught up
Paper cut
Malevolent
Undertones
Secretly,
Secretly

Dark soul
Devil rose
Melting underneath your tongue
Very sweet, seemingly

But the days go turning with my eyes closed
And tomorrow only goes to show

Heaven is around the corner,
Hanging right above your doorstep
Once again the world will end and you'll come out a better man
Don't you know, don't you know

All alone
I'm falling into pieces on the road
Watch the whole world fade, just let it go
I'm severed from this world of flesh and bone
Live in wanderlust and now
You never think about the beginning

Lay you down
On the bed of judgement hold your hand
Promise you that this is not the end
Every single day we start again
You never think about the beginning
You never think about it now

Heaven is around the corner
Hanging right above your doorstep
Once again the world will end and you'll come out a better man
Don't you know, don't you know
