about

Song For The Waves is about social ghosting, disillusionment and the healing power of music. The song is driven by hard-panned, squealing guitars, a slap-bassline and theatrical vocals, juxtaposed by the sounds of smashing crockery, and an eerie, operatic choir. The words themselves are a “thank you” to the energy transference made possible by waves.
(Sound waves, radio waves and ocean waves.)

lyrics

Get your violins out
Make room for empathy
Break all cynical bones in your body
Reset them all for me...
Elephants in the room are reaching to the knife
It wasn’t particularly nice being cut out of your life...

You said you would never hear a happy song from me
I maintain that you were never listening properly...

(You’re) vicariously feeling flames that you have fanned
Do I stand in the pillory with holes for my head and hands?
I take from invisible matter
I conjure the waves
In resolution and catharsis
I’m forever saved...

Judges judge you Counsellors counsel
Teachers teach Come and do the job that you signed up for
Make your mind up Please
You once called me ‘famalam’
now I do not know where I stand
Do I stand in the pillory with holes for my head and hands?

You said you would never hear a happy song from me
I maintain that you were never listening properly
Hope you enjoy not-so-cryptic messages from the waves...
I’ll be breathing ions from the water
I think I’ll be okay...
