Snake friend 03:31
Are there any colors in your eyes? What if you’d see more than black or white? There’s no good or bad my snake friend You love the sun though you know it could all burn Anger is fire Slay or smile there’s nothing to hide To cry or shine there’s no better time Look at my eyes They hurt and touch Gently giving love turning into dust Asking questions waiting for no good answer Black and light it is all the same Reach out your two arms before I die again To cry or shine there’s no better time My hero and enemy x7 My hero and dear enemy x5 It’s all a dance and nobody fails

Survive 04:12
I constantly was blaming and all I told was sad ----And you mind I constantly was calling the names of prophets I ----Did not find I found the reason why I don’t want to survive One more time I found the reason why I don’t want to survive Well tonight I had some clouds to look after And scrutinize their shapes ---Watch their lines I constantly was blaming and all I told was sad Are you mad I found the reason why I don’t want to survive One more time I finally start seeing What they meant by whole history I found the reason why they are calling me the same Like my dad I found the reason why don’t want to! survive I remember how wild They were with me while I Couldn’t count them all on my hand I should have lied

Little death 04:09
All this longing inside unsatisfied Should I stay here in line waiting tongue tied? Swimming into your blue eyes in my mind Instead of sailing on your skin for a while Bring me back to earth, babe I want to live it like the first Take off your glasses My small death is on sight Shoot right in my mouth Baby won’t you be my tongue? Baby won’t you be my bomb? Feel, High, Fly, Fall, Feel, High, Fall, Fly, Feel, Fall, Fly, High, Soul, Thrill All I feel inside by listening in silence All I feel inside by touching you thighs and, All I feel inside by hearing you breathing All I feel inside by tasting your flower All I feel inside by kissing your smile All I feel inside by Whispers, Feeling I’m lying down on your side watching you sleeping Recalling these dreams brought to light I stay haunted I leave your room keeping your smell with mine Mixing the morning light with this sweet paradise

Lovely 04:00
2x I was a lovely one I did not cry when you were out I did not cry I did not fight I did not shout I was a lovely one I did not cry when you were out I did not see did not know when you were around I should’ve so while… Should’ve done so while… 1x I was a truly one I did not cry I did not fight I did not shout I did not sigh I did nothing I was a lovely one I did not cry when you were around I did not see, did not know when you were around I should’ve so while… Should’ve done so while… I was a lovely one I did not cry when you were out I did not see, did not know when you were around I should’ve so while… Should’ve done so while…

Gift 03:07
Trembling light is hitting me at last Get all this past outside by my shut eyes Now as a child I see clear from below Give me black I want to cry my sorrows These tears in the mirror Turn into wings to fly higher These tears in the mirror Sparkling lights in this fragile sight Could I please stay when you feel ashamed, eyes full with rains, my dearest friend? Let me tell you that your shadows and scars are bigger to give than perfect love, and perfect ends. These tears in the mirror Turn into wings to fly higher These tears in the mirror Sparkling lights in this fragile sight I’ll stay near if you fall in blue and black

Empty room 03:16
An empty room Sunday the afternoon He will be there When the flowers bloom A big crow threw A knife into His old heart When it grew I will cry for you No matter if you say it’s true Oh no The shadow of your name is as big as this whole land I’m alone I am not my home I’m alone I am not in my herd An empty room Sunday the afternoon Soon they’ll be here I guarantee The longest road Leads to my prose Do you mind if I rewind I go wild ? I don’t know how long it will take for me to cry I sigh but it doesn’t make them closer to my home I’m alone I am not my home I’m alone I am not in my herd

Devoid 05:33
2x I don’t if I could be prepared To deceit all my dreams in half a second Calling me forever, The voice fades in You’ve be driving me from heaven to hell Feeling devoid I’ve been trying now for hours - there is nothing to recall So wavering Feeling devoid You’ve been calling me for hours and I haven’t answered yet I’ve been finding bits and pieces You’ve must have called for someone else I got the impression you’re alone What if I felt so because I am gone Feeling devoid You’ve been calling me for hours and I haven’t answered yet So wavering Feeling devoid You’ve been talking me for hours but there’s nothing to understand break Feeling devoid You’ve been calling me for hours and I haven’t answered yet So wavering Feeling devoid You’ve been talking me for hours but there’s nothing to understand

Dead 02:30
I cannot turn on the lights What if they lie and they don’t breathe at all ? And that’d be a mess Why don’t you rule us so hard That we--- would die In a row and in line But you became so rude -- I don’t even know what’s here It is so cold that I’m afraid Of my soul leaving in a corner of my body And that’d be a mess Why am I feeling--- so cold I’m already gone I’m already gone Why, why alone? Oh please come along I don’t what is there I don’t know if they’re I don’t know if they’re dead

Present past 05:30
Everything you are, Everything will go Blame and praises White fears And deep trusts In the game of gain and loss Pure intentions Black desires Misleading trusts In this game of gain and loss Numbers and stories Fleeting feelings Billions heartbeats Will appear and disappear In this present past Numbers and stories Billions heartbeats Fleeting feelings Will appear and disappear In this present past All things come apart In this present past Smiling lips and hot tears Crazy laughs and sad melodies Boredom and orgasm Dear strangers and sisters Numbers and stories Fleeting feelings Billions heartbeats Will appear and disappear In this present past Numbers and stories Billions heartbeats Fleeting feelings Will appear and disappear In this present past All things come apart In this present past Everything you love, Everything will go Millions boiling drops A million miles away will stop Before I end this very quote In this present past All you have is lost And all your pains are already dust Stay there and stare at the next chapter Before all books burn by the end of the sun Inside my heart will grow The root of a cactus toe Let yourself go In this extraordinary show All things come apart In this present past Everything will go This appears Disappear Let it all go Childish games killing jokes Crazy rapes and silent chokes Meaningless funerals After legal murders All will go All will go

about

Geography is the latest effort of Swiss collective Svarts. Geography comes to light after a long metamorphosis, a nurturing nymphal stage that led to the resurgence of the collective in an utterly graceful fashion. Inspired by Boards of Canada's Geogaddy as much as My Bloody Valentine's Loveless, the collective, yet again, meanders between styles without ever losing their own. Geography is a delicate craft, a thing of beauty that feels like an intimate journey in the landscapes of the human self.
