Asteroseismology (Starlings)

from CROW by BAAN

/

lyrics

She needs someone to conjure her an angel
A beautiful man with golden wings
She will come when the angel sings
Like a shot of heroin wearing her skin

The murmuration rainbow dances in the sky
It’s evening already, but she can’t tell why
It seems to her the birds know everything
She promises she will dance, but only if they sing

Asteroseismology oh-oh-oh-oh
Helio-eccentricity oh-oh-oh-oh
Starlings making melody oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Starlings making melody
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

But instead of love a shadow falls
Monsters climbing over crumbling walls
Inside her mind she sings her own sweet song
Then despite it all she is gone

Starlings making melody
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

She came to dwell amongst the red tenements
Learned to love, and lost her innocence
Fell for someone new who loved to sing
In the end her song turned into everything

No-one knows what’s coming down the line
Wake up hurting, then you’re feeling fine
Asteroseismology oh-oh-oh-oh
Helio-eccentricity oh-oh-oh-oh
Starlings making melody oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
