I am hiding plain as sight I am outside looking in Twisting through the hairpin turns Need to get up from within... Sitting in this dark, alone Shrouded in mood and tone Riddles in the preconceived Lost in strength that was my own... Hard truth in this magic trick Saw through bone Cut too quick I'm the wonder to behold The skin to which the fire sticks... ...I could tell you 500 times confess every secret come clean and unwind you're the one I really want you're the one Secrets that I situate Concepts that I infiltrate Rolling down the lonely mount Smokey mirrors demonstrate Hidden works in this play Diversion in the everyday I will knock you to one knee with a sideways smile and fly away... ...I could tell you 500 times confess every secret come clean and unwind you're the one I really want I could tell you But I am outside looking in And I need to get up from within You're the one

All the king's horses All the queen's men Can I get a witness Going through the litmus I don't want to talk about It's a revelation A welcome deviation You can scream your doubt about it A sticky situation Mega-penetration I feel the beauty in broken things All the king's horses All the queen's men I've been suicidal You're the one that's liable I know you need to talk about it Something unrequited A fuse that's not ignited But I have that fire And I will burn you to the ground You'll see the beauty in broken things You'll need the beauty in broken things You'll feel the beauty in broken things All the king's horses All the queen's men All the kings You'll see the beauty in broken things

Breath into me Reach right through me My eyes may never see the sun Paper-thin Don't know where I've been Sleepwalking circles into what I might become Hidden in this invitation A quiet smile of celebration Wrapped-up, tangled in mutation Breaking free in exultation Bottle Rocket Butterfly The sweetest flowers bloom late at night but you and I were born to break free into the light break free into the light My darkest deeds My secret needs A thousand fingers feeling every possibility I was crawling down Digging around Diving deep to dreams within my dreams I was rust and stone I was dirt and bone believing that one day the wind might take me on its way Bottle Rocket Butterfly Hidden in this invitation A quiet smile of celebration Wrapped-up, tangled in mutation Breaking free in exultation Bottle Rocket Butterfly Bottle Rocket Butterfly

You Softly Sigh You The Long Night's Moon Will Never Set And the Day Will Never Start You're the Only One I'll Ever Get So Build Me Up And Break Me Apart

Carried Away 04:54
Gravity is destiny And I'm the philosopher of fools You give me a push And I'll pull at your will Just because It gives me a thrill All the places you've got to go And the people you need to see Why can't I just let you be Why should I fall in love? Love only gets in my way Love doesn't do me any good But you've got me carried away I had thought I was a spinning top Out of my mind Out of control You're my salvation You lift me up Sharing everything I should never know All those things I'll miss Lips I'll never kiss Five hundred reasons I should let it go None of them mean anything Why should I fall in love? Love only gets in my way Love doesn't do me any good But you've got me carried away You've got me carried away You've got me

about

Dutch Rall / Positronic Orchestra / Nocturne Blue Texas

"Dutch Rall has created an evocative and chilling sound... brilliant." - Austin Chronicle

"...looks like Massive Attack has eaten the Jesus and Mary Chain..."

"...a pinch of Summer-and-Moroder disco trance, as well as a dash of Bowie’s Berlin"

"Dutch Rall's rich voice bursts into a Jeff Buckley falsetto... think Prince in his most sultry state."
