lyrics

gone and down the river
ambrosia down river styx
gone and down the river
amrita down swollen lips

your confidence was misplaced i find
are you compliant in this abstract mess of mine?
could i take a sip of yours instead?
a violent kiss through the back of my head

i'm starving but i've got to kill some time
three years down the river can do strange things to your mind
i'm faltered only halfway up the climb
three years down the river, what's just one more down the line?
if nobody's asking then politely i'll decline
born of a serpent you are no child of mine

your aptitude towards ethos declines
forcing your way forward through non-linear time
the heat is going straight up to my head
this will all be for nothing when you are dead

if nobody's asking then politely i'll decline
born of a serpent you are no child of mine

gone and down the river
ambrosia down river styx
gone and down the river
amrita down swollen lips

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
