lyrics
Once again you have been the angel on my shoulders
Guide me through when no one can percieve this state I’m in
but I know the sky lies heavy on your mornings
and we’ve seen the winter rain
reflected in our fathers’ eyes
In everything I do
I will try to show you all that grows
behind the weeds and all the hurt you see
and if I could
I would take your hand across the land
and stop with every miracle we find
oh brother I will love you ‘till I’m gone
we’ll overcome
When it comes around let your foggy whispers paint the story
Feel the waves the tide comes rolling in like mountain storms
I know soil has gathered around his bones now
but we still see the bitter shadows
dance behind our tired eyes
In everything I do
I will try to show you all that grows
behind the weeds and all the hurt you see
and if I could
I would take your hand across the land
and stop with every miracle we find
oh brother I will love you ‘till I’m gone
we’ll overcome
Guide me through when no one can percieve this state I’m in
but I know the sky lies heavy on your mornings
and we’ve seen the winter rain
reflected in our fathers’ eyes
In everything I do
I will try to show you all that grows
behind the weeds and all the hurt you see
and if I could
I would take your hand across the land
and stop with every miracle we find
oh brother I will love you ‘till I’m gone
we’ll overcome
When it comes around let your foggy whispers paint the story
Feel the waves the tide comes rolling in like mountain storms
I know soil has gathered around his bones now
but we still see the bitter shadows
dance behind our tired eyes
In everything I do
I will try to show you all that grows
behind the weeds and all the hurt you see
and if I could
I would take your hand across the land
and stop with every miracle we find
oh brother I will love you ‘till I’m gone
we’ll overcome

One-man project Vlimmer exists in the borderlands between post-punk and industrial/EBM, creating danceable darkness.
go to album -
The striking synth/goth songs on the latest from Vlimmer feel 50 stories tall, with gigantic walls of sound and bleak, ominous vocals.
