nobodycares Another great pair of tracks from Avenade. I am really excited to listen to the full project. This is definetly not getting the attention it deserves.

concretecastleslistening My first intro to Avenade. Swim is an alright track, but holy god Closure is amazing. Lovely job! I can see why you are a prime example of a good musician / AOTY reviewer! Favorite track: Closure.

Swim 05:44
Tell me your secrets, young one I can feel you breathe on the wire The system’s at it’s finest hour So you should just hang it up I want to know you, Frusciante You play with such a fire burning wild The system has it all worked out Competing just like this And I'm feeling estranged I’ve waited ‘til you were tongue tied I will never live an honest life When mother melts, we’ll all just end up swimming Take it in, one by one You hate the way I play? You're just a menace Go ahead, make my year Are you through with that? I begged in slo-mo I draw my final card Who would think I owed you a turn You sucked up to everyone with a thorne You won’t beat me You're losing time It's still your meltdown And I want to break you free And I’m feeling estranged I’ve awakened you all to a new life I am never going to give this up When father dies, we’ll all just keep on swimming These light lies These cold tears These dark times These bold fears And I’m estranged Swim

Closure 05:44
Bright lights and the sounds With my dreams as an excuse To be next to you, 'cause that's who I choose Awake in delight Hold this true 'cause you're in my loop It's the love I'm talking about To hear my roots, and to bleed my blues I whisper, if we run we can read this out It's not safe for us to live in this place What we do here is the same choices I'm taking you with me And she nods, yes, she nods If I can take this back to the start again Then I'd be just too afraid to miss the end She moves me and tears up my skyline If God doesn't break through, then she'll bring you closure Hold this true 'cause I'm in your view It's the way you speak in my voice To live like gods and to share our flaws She whispers, if we run we can live this out It's more safe for us to flee from this place What we do now is to take those chances She's taking me with her And I nod, yes, I nod If I can run this back to the end again Then I'd be more than okay to be missing out She moves me and clears up my eyesight If God throws you away, then she'll bring you closure And she won't die And she will never die Everytime she caught my eyes, I cried Everytime I touch the sky, she flies She brings me closure
