Am I cold? I cannot tell Have I fallen? Or am I falling down this stairwell? Oh, the cadence of the glow Concussive flashes of distant memories Good God, I feel your hands on me In the dying of the light, my aggressor runs under the lamps Morning light they'll get to see the crime committed on me Sonny Green is feeling slow Pepped up with a bag so righteous he sings all of Rubber Soul Oh, the cadence of the glow Percussive flashes over dimly lit country Good God, I feel your hands on me In the dying of the light, my aggressor runs under the lamps Morning light they'll get to see the crime committed on me Silk, dampened, unknown, over final thoughts Where will I be in two years? Euphoria breaks over the bow, washing up the macabre Out to sea to my mother's arms And I'm losing my ability to fathom Awake and not awake And I'm losing my ability to fathom Awake and not awake And I'm losing my ability to fathom Awake and not awake

A little history about Alt-J, they are an English indie rock band formed in 2007 in Leeds, by Joe Newman, Thom Sonny Green, Gus Unger-Hamilton and ex band member Gwilym Sainsbury. Their debut album An Awesome Wave was released in May 2012 in Europe, and in September 2012 in the United States, and won the 2012 British Mercury Prize. I discovered them in 2018 through my teenage daughter and fell in love with their music ever since..

This is a song about getting murdered. But like all Alt-J songs, it's not about exactly what the subject is, but capturing the intensity of human emotions in various situations of high emotion. The moments before death just so happens to be one of those things this band captures so poetically. So much raw emotion and truths in their music. My favourite band.
@awetistic5295 10 ай бұрын
Taro is still my favorite alt-J song and it also is about a person's last moments before death. They have a gift to turn the intensity of these final moments into pure magic.
