lyrics
If life is a candle, blow me out through the wind
Yonder sings a blonde girl, desperately thin
I have her number in my phone,
Holding but the key
To everything you know,
I’m just a feather in the sea
Tracks once well worn are now suspiciously thin,
The mud that gets between your toes, is nowhere to be seen
I built a sandcastle with my uncle I haven’t seen since I was three
The tide came in and washed it down now it’s nowhere to be seen
But I try
Oh I try
I try to believe in something bigger than me
But I can’t
I can’t bring myself
I can’t bring myself to forgive myself
To strife and to troubles, I hold out my hands
Gathering the rubble which justifies my wartorn land
Gallantly wholesome, my mother and father weep
Holding in their hands an everlasting truth but I just don’t believe
But I try
Oh I try
I try to believe in something bigger than me
But I can’t
I can’t bring myself
I can’t bring myself to forgive myself
But I try
Oh I try
I try to believe in something bigger than me
But I can’t
I can’t bring myself
I can’t bring myself to forgive myself

Five ghostly folk songs described by Dayydream as being on the border of imagination & reality, all wreathed in delicate echo. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 6, 2022
One-man project Vlimmer exists in the borderlands between post-punk and industrial/EBM, creating danceable darkness. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2022
The striking synth/goth songs on the latest from Vlimmer feel 50 stories tall, with gigantic walls of sound and bleak, ominous vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 26, 2021
