dream pop, trip-hop, 72 BPM, minor key progression, warped analog synths, detuned pad clusters, phase-shifted oscillators, reversed tones, pulsing sub-bass, distorted radio chatter, static sweeps, Doppler sirens, metallic drones, bowed vibraphone, clean guitar harmonics, tape saturation, plate reverb, sudden silence, uncanny accusation

Lyrics
I hear my thoughts
Moving under the floorboards…
Quiet little animals
Scratching at the door
Smile for the picture frame
Hide the wires in my brain
Everybody thinks I’m sweet
Cause I learned how not to speak
Ceiling melting into blue
Every shadow looks like you
Static drifting through my head
Words I never really said
If I tell you what I’m thinking
Would you still stay?
Or disappear like smoke
Inside the hallway?
Hidden thoughts under my tongue
Little secrets come undone
Dancing slowly through my veins
Like colored lights inside the rain
I don’t sleep
I just drift away
Into the places
I don’t say
Mm-mm-mm…
Inside my head…
Mm-mm-mm…
Nothing rests…
Mirror talking back to me
Like another personality
Tiny galaxies in my eyes
Trying hard to stay disguised
Every feeling multiplies
Butterflies electrified
Touch me lightly, watch me fade
Like a memory replayed
Do you hear them too?
The quiet thoughts behind the room?
The ones that never leave me alone…
Hidden thoughts under my skin
Pull me deeper in and in
Every whisper bends the light
Turning daydreams into night
I don’t cry
I dissolve instead
Into the colors
Inside my head
Quiet little animals…
Scratching at the door…
