lyrics

the sedative is wearing off
and clarity feels sharp
a stranger's voice speaks in my head
i recognize as mine
talk and talk and talk and talk
and talk and talk to me do it now
talk and talk and talk and talk
and talk and talk to me do it now
the sedative is wearing off
it's ugly when there's light
a drop of blood upon an eyelid
a love a stain a blot a ruin
talk and talk and talk and talk
and talk and talk to me do it now
talk and talk and talk and talk
and talk and talk to me do it now

Sine
by RoBERT

Quirky melodic 1993 electronic pop from France. I love the adventurous atmosphere in the music & the breathy crystalline vocals of RoBERT. A blend of infectious alt electropop with esoteric influences Alien Skin
