lyrics

pendulum

i can feel the flood
it’s washing over me
deteriorating
everything there is
but leaves a trace
of all that was

to be born
is falling through the years
against a certain death
that i don’t really mind
but now the years
have turned offensive and unkind

i search a word
that can make everything
i’ve done undone
and then light a way for me
the way that i know i am destined
and must walk

the pendulum it swings
indifferent to the furrow in my face
that inch by inch building
an unknown man
out of me

i can feel the distance
between thought and madness
shrinking vastly
i’m no longer able
to clearly separate the gold
from the dross

the pendulum it swings
indifferent to the furrow in my face
that inch by inch building
an unknown man
the pendulum it swings
to the point where time stands still
and jesus waits with open arms
arms that i
once used to fear

i didn’t break the circle didn’t break the circle i know i didn’t break the circle
i must have broken the circle

This EP was created using guitar, delay pedals and a looper pedal. It has an excellent experimental feel with great use of delay, layered sounds and feedback and Roofhare gets a huge range of sounds from the guitar. I really like the development of rhythmic sounds and interplay between the different delay effects which gives an ambience with a darker edge and great tension at times. Andrulian
