Big Thief - Time Escaping (Official Audio)

’Time Escaping’ by Big Thief is taken from new album ’Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You’, out now via 4AD. Listen to the album here: Lyrics: Electric waves a rush of energy Silent river pouring backward eternally Through the phase and touch of entropy Old age in the beginner To hit the stage and blush wild, laughingly Crush the rage and rush time tappingly Call the name so much so vapidly Dissolving into thin air Turning the two-fork taped up television Into tunnel vision Taking the new fork tactile as revision Working the revision Time escaping time escaping There is no reason to go down alone Through distortion’s secret telephone Separate contact separate Poison in the ether Swinging still incessant pendulum Lavender, nettle, calendula Separate, contact, concentrate Drawing out the fever Time escaping time escaping Only the winter wind survives After the heat rush feeds and thrives After the bushfire burns and dies Frozen and bitter Desert ground so cold and clean Spreading out like a magazine Reading the dirt like gossip What do the weeds say? They say “Everything everything everything falls through Each dimension breaks in two Like the two hands clapping Like the two wings flapping Everything everything everything for free As it all eventually turns to dust and petal Molten rock and meadow” Time escaping time Escaping
