  • Crystal-Rose-Neroli Bundle
    USB Flash Drive + Digital Album

    Receive the music on a stick of clear Crystal & Rose Gold, along with a pink salt crystal formed of cambrian evaporate, aged roughly between 540-600 million years; the package is wrapped up with a few drops of precious Neroli oil, which was harvested in 2019 (a fine year, we can all agree) from Springtime's first orange blossom buds (Nangrahar, Afghanistan).

    INSTRUCTIONS: Listen to the album with the pink crystal on your forehead or on your chest, or somewhere nearby. Touch it, play with it, kiss it if you like. Crystals like these were abundant around the studio during the making of this album (as well as Citrine, Pink Quartz, and a lot of wood + water). Finally, before listening to the song Rose Gold, take a deep inhalation of the scent of Neroli oil (which is both subtle and strong, and should permeate the package that arrives on your doorstep, as well as the pink crystal itself). Rose Gold is a song that is as intimately tied to Afghanistan as the flowers buds that offered us their precious oil.

    INFO: Crystal / Rose Gold USB stick has 2GB capacity. Pink crystal pieces vary by colour. Neroli oil is not visible in the package, it can only be smelled and enjoyed; it is provided in collaboration with the fine work of Ishkar and Turquoise Mountain.

lyrics

Synth, drums, vocals Yusuf 'Yoshi' Misdaq

I was on my way when you stopped me
Was on my way when you stopped me
You just had to keep on believing
You just had to wait for me, unreasonably
I would have flowered
I would have flowered
I would have been the man of the hour
I would have rescued your heart
Saved your life
Kissed you one more time
Could have kissed you one more time
We would have gone back in time
We would be in another time
We would be still-always as one
We would be never in no sadness
Never in no hatred
Never in no enmity
No loneliness
Why do we choose it?
Why do we choose it?
Why do we choose it?
Why do we choose it?

We fell together
We'll be falling forever
We'll be always falling forever
Because we fell together
We failed together
We fell together
We failed together
We fell together
We fail together
We fell together

Failed fragrances
Flowers-of-a-memory
Imaginary
This is getting stale
Like a fairy tale
You've lived inside me
For years
You lay there dormant
Like fears
When I'm low
You come near
When it's too noisy
I hear
My voice is showing you
Your face with a stain of regret
I can taste the taste of loss
It's kind of hard to forget
There ain't no reset
Just replay the secret
I lost a keeper
I got left with a t-shirt
My family can see hurt
I stand by the sea, hurt
There's silence in the speaker
With mouth closed
Nobody knows
My pride won't let me reach her
Blinded by the sun
It's a preacher, man
Take a look at my hands
How many more times?
Deepening lines
My face showing the grind
White hairs of time
They call it wisdom
That's a humorous line
I walk it narrow
It used to be a bridge
But now it's thin
Like a sparrow
On the side of a garbage lid

Thin
Like a sparrow
On the side of a garbage lid
