Hum - Downward Is Heavenward (2004) by Hum (보컬) on maniadb.com

she's just along for the ride
wings melt and we hide
all this means nothing to the sun
are we leaking this one
mine comes true here
bruised, expanding clear
mine full of you here
I won't claim (?) in the sun
are we leaving this one
and swift out, she goes to the last frame
short lives and long days in a fast state
then we'll lay way to you
your ocean spreads out on sunbeams
radiant, knowing
and your hand looks so nice in mine
and its been a thousand new seams since inception
and radiant, glowing
they say that we're doing fine
and your ocean spreads out on sunbeams
radiant, knowing
and your hand looks so nice in mine
and the new-come struggle has both of us
stapled to the island for awhile.
and they say that we're doing fine

we're two points collapsing
supercharged from the storm
sun drench in our faces, too deformed
bliss with intent to see us
peeling locust skins from the locust tree
hang on to these places she says to me
clearly in this afternoon
clearly we will have to turn and come home soon
she fell into me a point collapsing
with her loving face in the snow
the mission could be corrupted
and we wouldn't know {and we wouldn't know}
my baby reads for the sound
I've got my feet against the ground
my baby reaches for the sound
I'll take you anywhere you want
loving us more as you see us
peeling locust skins from the locust trees
hang on to their faces she screams to me
clearly in this afternoon
clearly we will have to turn and come home soon

I'm thinking of your wide open eyes
smiling as they feed the nerves
that push the field of silver and the colorful lines
like only you could see, like only you could do
I'm picturing forcep in ice
that you would see if you could reach
and reconnect the engine to the delicate lens
but I just sit and wait for a blip to break the perfect little
then green line
I dreamt of jet-less high
seeing clouds from the other side
and rolling softly until the underbelly shines
and the back skims through the steam
feeding upturned mouths and sprinkling away
a dusty sleep you took too soon
and you need watering if you are to bloom
I'm thinking of your failing green eyes
smiling as they greet the day
they can't see me
and now I'm picturing us opening up wide
drinking down our days in haze and bliss
together till it stumbles aside
but I just sit and wait for a rhythm in a perfect little
feeling
it's true
so soon
and the coil speaks
I'd like to see us together
I'd like to lay my head low
I need to lean on a soft one
and bring the spin of the world to a halt
and the coil sleeps
and you've been gathering angels
and fading further each day
I love you right now as I never
remember my face as it quietly you make your rain
I dreamt of jet-less high
seeing clouds from the other side
and rolling softly until the underbelly shines
and the back skims through the steam
feeding upturned mouths and sprinkling away
a dusty sleep you took too soon
and you need watering if you are to bloom

She hits the blade with both hands high
Downward is heavenward
And we are not alone

Condensers on and a drop is found
A fingertip trace says to me
"I can see you when you are red"

A bed of dead leaves grace the ground
A quick glance to the other side
And we will not be found

Symbionts in haste command
"Come close", screams to me
"I can see you above the rest"

And through it all, she seems secure
Downward is heavenward
And we are not alone

Head thrown back a second time
Eyes shut, he yells above
"Can we do this without a net?"

The morning image from the satellites
Is all blue and green
And we've all got wounds to clean
Here's a rag, here's some gasoline

She wakes up fine and rested well
Released at last from in the sleeping cell
Breathing comes with ease

It's a sweet revenge, built on a chemical ride
My medicine man is the best wires to the temples
Place them on let's see how we sound

It's all green to me
What a sweet revenge
It's all green to me

See them lift off one by one, I see a cool spot here
Let's bring her down, level to the ground
A lovely mess that I am blessed to see, of me, of me

She lifts her wings up high
Sensors show a lifetime until we die
And all the dreams' details perfected in the colored sky

The morning image from the satellites
Is all blue and green
And we've all got wounds to clean
Here's a rag, here's some gasoline

It's all green to me
(Lift up your skies and all the other times, you realize)
It's all green to me
(It lifts up your days in a single phase, I felt your hand)
It's all green to me
(Lift up your skies and all the other times, you realize)
It's all green to me
(It lifts up your days in a single phase)

you swore the earth was round
and you said that there was no upside down
I hit the starship left and let the parallax flip
like you showed me in the lighthouse
I did the math and it came up ones and 0's
I know a girl who makes me shine
my dreamboat's leaving on a submarine
she's got a second set of tanks and all I ever want and need
I know a gril that makes me whine
my dreamboat scatters with her submachine
she's got a second set of tanks
and all I'd ever want or need
and you swore the earth was sound
and you said that we could go upside the ground
but the starfish sends a message in code that you can't see from
the
lighthouse
and we will dive in the afternoon.
I took a simple time to wander
engaging twilight through the trees
if she needs help among the kelp ways, then I'm not tied to
these
no I'm not tied to these
I know a girl who makes me shine
My dreamboat's leaving on a submarine
she's got a second set of tanks
all I'd ever want and need
and to the one who makes me whine
my dreamboat scatters with her submachine
she's got a second set of tanks and all I ever want or need
for me

I took a worn out strand of your cellophane hair
And stretched it sideways
And oh my, my, slip though
Between the seam with me

My brain stopped working from the cold
I sort of strayed from what we know

So I'll be like you and do what's right
And win a love I don't deserve out on the ice tonight
Teach me the bluest song you know
The moon ain't comin' up
And I swear to God tonight it feels like snow

I'm glad we got your hands warm
So my arms can feel like trust again
I can promise true waves
When the summer comes

The world still fits the same form
We engraved when it all began
Maybe catch a new wave
Feels right, feels right

So we ride whales and drag race time
And I draw fires from the traces of trilobite hives
You sleep like god inside her womb
And you see clearly to the silicon wasteland
They left inside my mind

I'm glad we got your hands warm
So my arms can feel like trust again
I can promise true waves when the summer comes
The world still fits the same form
We engraved when it all began
Maybe catch a new wave

We've lost the road now, injecting charms
And we care for all of ours
We stand in rows now
Transfer alarms just like the
Inuit with the promise song

To come down and see
To come down and see
To come down and see
To come down and see

(Your solvents frozen here)
On the petal rung is all we have to see
Enlarged inside as we espy the warming sea
(Your breath diffused and never realized)
Aside from where the panicked hide
And I just a subtle lift provider on the other side

I'm thinking of a number between everything and two
I'm thinking of a number between everything and two

She said, you can find a space between my arms if you will stay
Like if we ignore the systems, they'll just blink out and quickly go away

She said," I'll keep all the signals that you send home to me
And I'll meet you back here on the ground"
It's lift off, lift off again, she's pissed off, pissed off again

Moonlight brings me back again this day
And I know if she had a way, I'd always be through
And tethered to a glass ring, she keeps beside the phone
And never ever stepping out into

Blankness and darkness like underneath the leaf
Have settled on me here and scraped away the sound

She said, you can find a place inside my heart if you will stay
And I need you back here on the ground
It's lift off, lift off again, she's pissed off, pissed off again

Moonlight brings me back again this day
And I know if she had a way, I'd always be through
And tethered to a glass ring, she keeps beside the phone
And never ever stepping out into

I'm thinking of a number between everything and two

And moonlight brings me back again this day
And I know if she had a way, I'd always be through
And tethered to a glass ring, she keeps beside the phone
And never ever stepping out into

And moonlight brings me back again this day
And I don't feel a thing here anymore
The strings of information slowing to a stop
The tether's end is slipping from its knot, I'm stretching out in two

I'm thinking of a number between everything and two
I'm thinking of a number between everything and two
And it's molecules of you

Electrified and lit up by an outline of herself
And smiling now as only she can be
She said, "I made some new connections to astound them all
In ways we've never dreamed about"

Her lovely hand is glowing from a light inside itself
From soaking in the esters stacked for miles on a single shelf
Holding my eyes still
So she can see all the super-undercover custom hybrids got to me

It's too much, you're too late, I want to see it all again
She says, "Keep this benzene ring around your finger
And think of me when everything you wanted starts to end"

And I saw living lusters form in pools beneath her feet
Invertebrates that only she can see
And I said, "What on Earth are all these ampules for?"
She says exactly, "We're not gonna wait around here anymore"

Systems back down slow, watch the dust cloud we send
And I will keep you, I will keep you to the end
Set your head back low, watch my ears ring
I will take care of you, I will take care of everything

Systems back down slow, watch the dust cloud we send
And I will keep you, I will keep you to the end
Set your head back low, watch my ears ring
I will take care of you, I will take care of everything

It's too much you're too late
Too much you're too late
Piloting my head spins to the ground
And I think, I see myself again
Through the pinhole

But the pinhole captures all of you
And the pinhole captures all of you
And the pinhole captures all of you
And the pinhole captures all of you
And the pinhole captures all of you

Too much, you're too late
Too much, you're too late
Too much, you're too late
Too much, you're too late
