실버 스완즈(Silver Swans)는 재미교포 여성 보컬 안 유(Ann Yu, 유미선)와 미국인 프로듀서 존 워터스(Jon Waters)로 구성된 샌프란시스코 거점의 일렉트로-드림 팝 듀오다. 팀명은 만화 ‘원더 우먼’ 시리즈에 등장하는 3인조 악당의 이름 ‘실버 스완’에서 착안하였으나, 그들은 이런 파괴적인 캐릭터의 분위기와는 다소 상반된 음악 스타일을 지향한다. 대부분의 곡들이 영미/유럽권 다운템포 그룹의 멜랑꼴리한 무드를 유지함과 동시에 디스코, 신스 팝 등 댄스 음악계의 트렌드를 선별적으로 수용하고 있다. .... ....
Are you Happy? I know you shiver like a stone I know you can’t be, when you have nowhere else to go And your father came to find you here, I covered tracks to help you And I don’t think about you, any more And I don’t think about you, any more
Maybe you’re working in a city far away Maybe you’re satisfied with how boring how life stayed You told me you were gonna be really big or something You told me that it’s everyone else who gets disappointed
In your bedroom, under your covers that is you Outta of your safety, hot air is blowing under you Dreaming like a picture taken of you, when you were young I don’t wanna find you gone, so turn it around
On a light side, you wait for a while Wrap fist like it’s wrong to be allowed Melt a piece of your tongue to feel it burn Touch your skin ‘cause you know, where it hurts I don’t wanna find you gone, so turn it around
I don’t wanna find you gone, so turn it around I don’t wanna know that you’re lost so let me know I don’t wanna find you gone so turn it around I don’t wanna find you lost, you let me know I don’t wanna find you gone so turn it around I don’t wanna find you lost, so let me know
Best friend in love, Fridays nights no longer listening She’s gone away, another place to occupy her space
All the time we spend Promises we keep On a lazy afternoon And after all the time we spent To think it only comes to this And after all the promises To think there’s nothing happening
Cream strawberry skin, sensitive to everybody’s touch What can I say, she sees no wrong in anyone, no one
All the time we spend Promises we keep On a lazy afternoon
Swing soft all night, your mother won’t remember when we left Boys will come and go, she sees no wrong in anyone no one
Best off be dead today, stay down and carry me away Veins swim beneath me now, stream of life slowly pulls away Souvenir under my skin, do you see, do you notice now? Lie down, and take it in, hold on to nothing coming out
Fade away, into a new face, days before, all of our instincs, shimmering, into the sunlight, take me home
Glazed out to glassy eyes, sleep comes to me eternally Comatose remove the pain, touch my lids and help me slip away Beating inside my heart, do you see, do you notice now? Numbness to fade to light, tell me what you see before your high
Fade away, into a new face, days before, all of our instincs, shimmering, into the sunlight, take me home
Do you like to hide inside somebody else’s dreams I don’t know how to be Was your shadow watching me? It must have been too real to see, Were they the reason why, you should meet me somewhere nice, you should meet me somewhere nice….
And your signs I keep for me, ‘cause you smile once in a while, You show them off to all you see, will you save them just for me When no one else is watching, I drink you with my eyes, and you should meet me somewhere nice, and you should meet me somewhere nice
Oh love, come to me again, I never meant to hurt you
In light, we wake… Sunbathing in our glow To never say no When I was a young girl I was brown under the water Damaged by the sun
CHORUS Build up a wall, run circles in your bedroom A club of your secrets For how long, how long, how long Build up a fortress Face painting 'till it's daylight These triangles of gold For how long, how long, how long
Hide Out, in the dark No fear of tomorrow And I took your small hand In dusk, we wrestle At night, we are sleep walkers And we believe in a dream
CHORUS Build up a wall, run circles in your bedroom A club of your secrets For how long, how long, how long Build up a fortress Face painting 'till it's daylight These triangles of gold For how long, how long, how long
Are you Happy? I know you shiver like a stone I know you can’t be, when you have nowhere else to go And your father came to find you here, I covered tracks to help you And I don’t think about you, any more And I don’t think about you, any more
Maybe you’re working in a city far away Maybe you’re satisfied with how boring how life stayed You told me you were gonna be really big or something You told me that it’s everyone else who gets disappointed
