Matmos
Amplifier Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Filtered feelings gathering
Like the holes in a tear
Come touch the air with your fingers
And change the atmospheres here

And hazy are all my memories
And take away from me the past
Your deconstucted soul immortal
Is thinking laughing gas toughts
I know your thoughts

Something clicked in my mind
Incredibly clear
With all the time to arrived
When we were already here
You're pulling me to the ground
Please help me breath air
There ain't no need to decide

So keep your feelings atomised
like scattered ashes on the wind
A dummy head in saturation
With only echoes listening

Remember all the days
Of raising up on high
To steal the sun
Of following the dream
So far away
Better than to hold
Another day

For now the time
Is mine

Something clicked in my mind
Incredibly clear
With all the time to arrived
When we were already here
You're pulling me to the ground
And I'm gravity bound
I need to know that you care

For the love that I found, I found
For the love that I found, I found...





The end of night has come

Just wish this band would get the international recognition that they deserve. No one else can write songs like this.

Jim Walker Would love to see them here in the states.
