Description
I just discovered Ted23 and was blown away by his tunes; sent him a PM saying we should do something together and then found an open collaboration he had posted. Wrote the lyrics and melody in an afternoon, and came up with the 2nd verse today.
I played it for Bryn and he said it reminded him of the Peel sessions, and I just went in that direction. This is pretty reminiscent of the Smiths and Echo and the Bunnymen, but it seemed right to me. In keeping with the spirit of the Peel sessions, I ran everything super hot for a kind of crunchy sound. Think it sounds okay, but what do I know.
Here's the link to Ted23's open collab: "Collab?"

Lyrics
i've been torn apart
i've been lucid at times
i've been wrapped in the arms of love
and then hated by some
whispers and kisses and sex without love
still make me feel like i'm something
nothing that's painless can mean anything
nothing that's sacred can tear us apart
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when you're discontent
you're reckless at times
you don't seem to care anymore
when you're turning to dust
whispers and kisses and sex without love
still make me feel like i'm something
nothing that's painless can mean anything
nothing that's sacred can tear us apart
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
you're drawn away
from the things you need
it's so hard to see
i don't fell that way
you get lonely
lonely
you get lonely
lonely
lonely
lonely
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
la la la la la la
la la la la la la...
i've been lucid at times
i've been wrapped in the arms of love
and then hated by some
whispers and kisses and sex without love
still make me feel like i'm something
nothing that's painless can mean anything
nothing that's sacred can tear us apart
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when you're discontent
you're reckless at times
you don't seem to care anymore
when you're turning to dust
whispers and kisses and sex without love
still make me feel like i'm something
nothing that's painless can mean anything
nothing that's sacred can tear us apart
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
you're drawn away
from the things you need
it's so hard to see
i don't fell that way
you get lonely
lonely
you get lonely
lonely
lonely
lonely
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
when the luster is gone
it gets easier
la la la la la la
la la la la la la...
particledots

its interesting (to my ears) how you have brought this into much sharper focus than the 1st version i heard
i love the feel and sound of this
nicely done
