VIDEO PREMIERE: Dear Life


DARK SKIES ASSOCIATION are proud to present the video premiere of Molly Nilsson’s “Dear Life”, song taken from the upcoming album The Travels. Video by Chris Filippini and Molly Nilsson. Starring Tómas Lermarquis. The Travels is out June 21st 2013 on DARK SKIES ASSOCIATION / NIGHT SCHOOL.

Dear Life,
I would never call you a bitch
All my miseries have made me rich
Dear Life, you know I love you secretly
even when you’re talking dirty to me
And I’m not only saying this cause I’m drunk
(though I am) I should tell you more often
if I think that I can
I really mean it, I really mean it
I really really mean it tonight

Take me through these avenues and boulevards
my rushing blood is a racing car tonight
I felt so high on life
These endless streets, my tired feet
are gonna get us far from wherever we are tonight
it felt so close tonight

Dear Life,
you felt so close tonight

From the airplane window the cities far below
look like glowing vomits in the snow
These sails will bring me where the wind is gonna blow
where we’ll go don’t tell me cause I don’t wanna know

Dear Life,
you felt so close tonight

My Modern Museum

Music video by Ernst Markus Stein. Song taken from History (DSA 2011).

 

Baby, sometimes I don’t understand you
You’re the abstract art in my Modern Museum
Baby, sometimes we fall apart
but the ruins of my heart stand like the Colosseum
I hope you die, by my side
the two of us at the exact same time
I hope we die, long from now
the two of us at the exact same time

 
Maybe it’s all beyond control but baby you can have my soul
I hope you die, by my side
Maybe it’s all ages away but I can’t help but think of the day
I hope we die at the exact same time
 
Baby, your lungs are bigger than a football field
I’m the hooligan of your heart
sometimes we win and sometimes we lose our dreams
but I‘ll always wear the colours of your team
 
Baby, you’re the coolest moon when the nights begun
I’m a goth in the sun and we can sleep through the summer days
I know you think I’m morbid when i say
I hope you die, by my side
the two of us at the exact same time
I hope we die, long from now
the two of us at the exact same time
