Dark Light

All songs written by Aldous Harding

Sadly, I feel nothing
I’m so down on life
High people pull me into their faces
They are so lucky

Elation came when you chose me
Elation
I have not died
Though I’ve never tried in relation

When they say, “Enjoy”
I try so hard to
Some trees move like Limón
But Limón died

The beauty is so close to me
The beauty is so close to me

Elation came when you chose me
Elation
I have not died
Though I’ve never tried in relation

The beauty is so close to me
The beauty is so close to me

Written by Aldous Harding. Taken from the single Elation

I can see the golden sprinter
Covering the line with feathers
Oh, take me to your best kept secret

I’ll choke a cartoon
I’ll rattle a bud till it blooms
Oh, such thankless treatment

I can see the old eye open
Rolling at a pre-made moment

Focus has not been the same
Since I gave it such rave notice

I colored your mane
He’ll do what he did in the rain
Nature called it by its name

I can see the hunted splinter
Doubled over at the interplay
Nature called it by its name

Hopeless
I never knew your best kept secret
Hopeless
I never knew your best kept secret
Hopeless
I never knew your best kept secret

Right now at the top of the count
Hot clown and the creek is turning
Give back the sheets of Easter
Get more for your money, man
Right now, kick out
Kick out for the light and lighter

Give that which you mean to get back
See these are the streets of favor
Hang down like the feet of Easter
You’re bad for me now, baby
Right now, hang down
He won’t meet if you don’t meet, baby

Throw up if you mean to move up
See these are the cheats of labour
No one’s too cute to see that
You won’t leave if she just meet, baby

Old peel
No deal
I won’t speak if you call me baby
Old peel
No deal
I won’t speak if you call me baby

Right now at the top of the count
Hot clown and the creek is turning
Give back the sheets of Easter
Get more for your money, man

Old peel
No deal
I won’t speak if you call me baby
Old peel
No deal
I won’t speak if you call me baby

Written by Aldous Harding. Taken from the single Old Peel

I am saved, I am saved
And oh, would you believe it?
All of the day
I felt his presence near me

I know they won’t believe me, but
I’ve got favorite memories
I am saved, I am saved

And, oh, could you believe it?
You won’t regret if you choose to believe it
Freedom, silence, always
All this darkness, always

Always
Oh, oh

Darkness, always, they don’t make no sense
Darkness, always
Away from me darlin’

Three hours from sundown
Jeremy flies
Hoping to keep
The sun from his eyes
East from the city
And down to the cave
In search of a master
In search of a slave

Three hours from London
Jacomo’s free
Taking his woes
Down to the sea
In search of a lifetime
To tell when he’s home
In search of a story
That’s never been known

Three hours from speaking
Everyone’s flown
Not wanting to be
Seen on their own
Three hours is needed
To leave from them all
Three hours to wonder
And three hours to fall

Three hours from sundown
Jeremy flies
Hoping to keep the sun from his eyes
East from the city
And down to the cave
In search of a master
In search of a slave
