about

this is the full stop at the end of a 15 year anthology of pointless yearning. and it's nice to be able to mention gasometers in a song.

lyrics

Gasometers they rise and fall, too slow to see them breathing, just like the shadow that comes and goes between desire and grieving. just like the shadow that comes and goes, I know where this is heading. When could I ever say no to you? Of course I'll sing at your wedding.
I lost my marbles years ago - they look better on you: glowing softly at your throat like some segmented rainbow, reflected in your engagement ring - that small, surprising halo. Of course I'll sing at your wedding - when could I ever say no?
The wedding singers come and go between the cake and the speeches. They take the stage and take a bow between the ring and the disco. Between the ring and the disco, between the truth and pretending. When could I ever say no to you? Of course I'll sing at your wedding.
