lyrics

I saw a black sun rising
It was behind your eyes and
I know that you were lying,
But you had no right babe

I bet you think you’re real bad
With your sad boy blues and
You told me I was trouble
I guess I finally believe you

Its hard to love a girl
Who’s mad with the moon
But if i’m leaving this place
I’m leaving you too

There was a dark star rising
It was behind my eyes and,
It wakes me in the night when
Im just trying to get by

Its that time of the night when,
When he hides the good knives and,
I only wanted to know,
Wanted to know what you felt like

It’s hard to love a girl
Who’s mad with the moon
But if i’m leaving this place
I’m leaving you too

You can’t love a girl
Who would burn the world
Just to get,
Just to get her way
Just to get her way

It’s hard to love a girl
Who’s mad with the moon
But if i’m leaving this place
I’m leaving you too

about

Lux Lyall London, UK

In Lux Lyall’s dark and decadent world, little is as it appears. Theatrical songs steeped in sumptuous strings owe a debt to old-school Hollywood, but have their roots in Camden’s gritty rock haunts. Lyrics littered with nods to film noir spring from modern-day issues including mental health. Even the femme fatales come with a twist – they always win the day.

Cool EP. The remixes are excellent, and I kinda love how raw Long Year sounds compared to the album version. pen_umbra
