lyrics

Where were you sleeping when the oceans ran dry?
When we learned that powder was all we could cry
What were you thinking when the sun wouldn’t rise?
‘Cause you were the only one who wasn’t surprised

Aimless, we wander through scattered debris
Swallowed by the night, no visibility
Scavenge for shelter to heat up our bones
No sign of the coastline

A desert of black sand beneath our feet
A rainstorm of ashes is all that we breathe

Nothing for miles but fire and salt
Silently sit, watch the trembling faults
In the desolate wind, you bent down by the stream
Just like in my dream

The color returning slow
Your tears made the water flow
The atmosphere breathes again
Your touch, it was heaven sent

The atoms, they reunite
The skyline is pierced by light
Clouds break and return their sight

In the desolate wind, you bent down by the stream
Just like in my dream

A desert of black sand beneath our feet
A rainstorm of ashes is all that we breathe
A desert of black sand beneath our feet
A rainstorm of ashes is all that we breathe

No Joy
by Spanish Love Songs

supported by 5 fans who also own “When The Oceans Ran Dry”

viscerally affected by covid, this album has a less optimistic but more accepting message than the previous. it reaches the heart of my experience (and others'?) in a cathartic and depressing acknowledgement. it's nice to know you feel the same niq
