time escaping & wild whistling - live Songtext
von Adrianne Lenker

Electric waves, a rush of energy
Silent river pouring backward eternally
Through the phase and touch of entropy
Old age and the beginner
To hit the stage and blush wild laughingly
Crush the rage and rush time tappingly
Call the name so much so vapidly
Dissolving into thin air
Turning the two fork taped up television
Into tunnel vision
Taking the new fork tactile as revision
Working the revision

Time escaping
Time escaping


There is no reason to go down alone
Through distortion′s secret telephone
Separate contact, separate
Poison in the ether
Swinging still, incessant pendulum
Lavender, nettle, calendula
Separate contact, concentrate
Drawing out the fever

Time escaping
Time escaping

Only the winter wind survives
After the heat rush feeds and thrives
After the bush fire burns and dies
Frozen and bitter
Desert ground so cold and clean
Spreading out like a magazine
Reading the dirt like gossip
What do the weeds say?
They say everything, everything, everything falls through
Each dimension breaks in two
Like the two hands clapping
Like the two wings flapping
Everything, everything, everything for free
As it all eventually
Turns to dust and petal
Molten rock and metal


Time escaping
Time escaping
