Alasdair Dunn - Beton Brut Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Spectral lines all lined up
On the cosmic bathroom countertop
Bloodshot eyes in a cracked mirror
In the silence of a throbbing city club
And the void
When I couldn’t see the stars
I stopped dreaming of space
Always keep the beaten path
Always keep a straight face
This year’s galvanised me
But zinc’s a drab-as limbo as any
Trading one grey for another
The music of the spheres spun
In colours I had never dreamed of
I would be lustrous, I’d be rusting in lust
I would be wretched, I would be loved

[Verse 2]
Lеaving home, muscles knot my aching shoulder bonеs
Wash out my veins with the acetone
I wasn’t born in fear, there’s no self-loathing in my genes
But from when I could hear
I heard the hereditary, the poison of misogyny
An amateur wavering, thus traversing
The tripwire of masculinity
Dance, hummingbird! Can you dance?
I had learned the steps before I could walk
I had learned silence before I could talk
[Verse 3]
Where are you, Orion?
Into what abyss goes your hunt?
To black depths I condemn ye
And raise up to heaven
New stars

[Verse 4]
Stare into that void all you like
It won’t meet your gaze
When you can’t see the stars
You stop dreaming of space
