Taking influences from Jean Cocteau, New Wave Cinema, and Bowie he fuses together glamour, tragedy, and passionate-love; and charges them into a slice of punchy pop-noir with decadent-undertones.
He writes music for those on the dance-floor drenched in sweat and neon light; for those who have loved and lost with intensity; for those who have that chemical rush when a kick-drum thumps through their chest; or for those who simply love that electric high." Bright Young Things Blog.

The Shimmer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Это не любовь, я этим сыт уже по горло
Каждая неделя кажется такой тяжелой
И если спросишь почему?
Я коротко отвечу
За твои глаза
Смогу ли выбраться?
Из этой бездны я
Я люблю тебя
И ни за что
Не стану упускать
И никогда
Не стану забывать
Я тратил время зря
И трачу его по сей день
Не стану умолять,
Но всё равно остался бы с ней
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу тебя голой
Это не любовь, я этим сыт уже по горло
Каждая неделя кажется такой тяжелой
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу тебя голой
Это не любовь, я этим сыт уже по горло
Каждая неделя кажется такой тяжелой
Во мне будто от тебя остался осколок
Хоть ты была ко мне не слишком лестнойЯ не забуду словно запись на кассете
Я берегу будто игрушку дети
Но много раз терял
Сможешь ли ты услышать боль в моём ответе
И если спросишь как я справился с этим
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу тебя голой
Это не любовь, я этим сыт уже по горло
Каждая неделя кажется такой тяжелой
Во мне будто от тебя остался осколок
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу голой
Каждая неделя кажется тяжелой
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу голой
Во мне будто от тебя остался осколок
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу голой
Каждая неделя кажется тяжелой
Стараюсь забыть, но снова вижу голой
Во мне будто от тебя остался осколок
The lyrics to The Shimmer's song "The Shimmer" delve into the complexities of heartbreak and the struggle to move on from a past relationship. The singer expresses a desire to forget but constantly sees their former lover naked in their mind, a vulnerable and intimate image that reinforces the pain they are feeling. The repetition of this image emphasizes the lingering impact of the relationship and the difficulty of fully letting go.
The lyrics convey a sense of emotional saturation, as the singer feels fed up and overwhelmed with the memories and emotions associated with the past love. Each week feels heavy and burdensome, highlighting the weight of carrying these unresolved feelings. Despite recognizing that the relationship is not true love, the singer still finds themselves unable to escape its hold on them.
The refrain "За твои глаза, Смогу ли выбраться?" ("For your eyes, will I be able to escape?") hints at a glimmer of hope for liberation from the emotional turmoil. The singer questions their ability to break free from the grip of the past and move forward. The repetition of this question underscores the internal struggle and uncertainty surrounding their path to healing.
The lyrics also touch on the theme of nostalgia and holding onto fragments of the past, even when they bring pain. The mention of a lingering fragment or shard from the past lover suggests that despite efforts to forget, a part of them remains embedded within the singer's being. The conflicting emotions of love and pain, longing and resentment, create a poignant and bittersweet narrative that captures the complexities of heartbreak and the enduring impact of past relationships.

@bink4921
She calls me from the cold
Just when I was low, feeling short of stable
And all that she intends
And all she keeps inside, isn't on the label
She says she's ashamed
And can she take me for awhile?
Can I be a friend, we'll forget the past
Maybe I'm not able
And I break at the bend
We're here and now, but will we ever be again
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools who fall behind
And I'm somewhere in between
I never really know
A killer from a savior
'Til I break at the bend
We're here and now, but will we ever be again
'Cause I have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
It's too far away for me to hold
It's too far away
Guess I'll let it go
