Blue Spell

from Hidden Hips by The Young Shaven

about

"A crowd favorite begins with a softly sung protagonist trapped and kicks into a Black Sabbath-like riff in which the words are repeated with renewed vigor and strength. A psychedelic meandering on “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” - Simon Pegg, Jealousy Suits Me

lyrics

Closed my eyes
and I saw, I saw barbed wire
closed my eyes
and I saw, I saw barbed wire
running blue, running blue
over my mind
you said
"don't sleep like that
unless you're tired"
"don't you sleep like that
unless you're tired"
the pollen broke, the pollen broke
rust is your voice
I closed my eyes
and I, I saw
barbed wire
I closed my eyes
and I, I saw
barbed wire
running blue, running blue, running blue
you said
'don't sleep like that man
'less you tired" ('less you tired, 'less you tired)
you said
'don't sleep like that man
'less you tired" ('less you tired, 'less you tired)
and the pollen broke, the pollen broke, the pollen broke
rust is your voice
went back and forth
with a kicked up dust
of a memory just gone by
went back and forth
with a kicked up dust
of his memory just gone by
went back and forth
with a kicked up dust
of his memory just gone by
went back and forth
with a kicked up dust
of his memory just gone by
bye
you look at me
so hungrily
can you look me in the eye?
you look at me
so hungrily
can you look me in the eye?
I
Closed my eyes
and I, I saw
barbed wire
Closed my eyes
and I, I saw
barbed wire
running blue (harmed and broken, broken and harmed)
running blue (harmed and broken, broken and harmed)
running blue (harmed and broken, broken and harmed)
(harmed and broken, broken and harmed)
