The Bush
“The Bush” drifts through the haze of memory and myth, a torch song wrapped in dust and data. Frillici leans into the Lynchian ache of distance and unraveling codes of connection, with echoes of Lou Barlow’s confessional murmur and JJ Cale’s dusky ease. It’s a slow, cracked hymn for the beginning and end-times campfire. A call for the return to the godspeed and an unlikely Irish Luck Shanty.
GET AWAY FROM THE PAVEMENT
ENOUGH OF ENSLAVEMENT
WHEN I SAY THAT THE KEEP
IS A SEVERIN ARRANGEMENT
DU TY TO MANKIND
AND FOOD FROM THE GARDEN
DOGS OF THE WATCH
AND THE PSALMS OF THE HARDENED
WON’T DO ANY GOOD
NOW WILL IT
AND THE ECHOS BEFORE IT
THE GLORY THAT TORE IT
APART FROM THE HONOR
ABLE TANK OF A GONNER
DOWN SOUTH
OF THE GOOD TIMES
AND TRECHROUS
MIND CRIMES
AND THE GOOD FEELS AND BAD
YOU MET YOUR MATCH
NOW GO ON
goooooo onnnnnn gooooo goooooo onnnnnn
THE ASTROIDAL IMPACT
OF ME IN YOUR HEAD
AT THE WORK AND THE BED
IN THE LIVING
AND DEAD
EVEN IF
YOU PRETEND
THAT IM FAR FAR AWAY FROM IT
THE BUSH SPEAKS OF FIRE
AND THE RUSH
FROM THE BASEMENT
IN VENUS AND CHOIR
OH COME NOW
OH COME
OH COME
IF YOU’RE THINKING IN CODE
AND THE BLASPHEMOUS ODE
HANG ON TO THE LAY LINES
INVISIBLE THE ROADS
THAT WHISPER THROUGH THE BONES
AND HUM THROUGH THE STONES
NOWWwwww
COME ON
AND REJOIN THE PARTY
THE KEGS IN THE BACK
BY THE BOMBASTIC HACK
Now COME ON
OHHHHHHH
Now COME ON
oh ohhhhh
