From the recording Ondoezik.2: The Sharpest Shade
The lyrics of 'Lightship' paint a picture of disintegration and escapism, symbolized by the dystopian race records and escapism pills. The references to the 'angel's share' and 'piano teeth' create a mysterious and dreamlike atmosphere, suggesting a desire to escape reality and find solace in a different realm, alluding to the turbulent times of the sixties paralleled with modern issues, and the need for a lighter, brighter existence.
Lyrics
Race records
Disintegrate with me
I’ll take the angel’s share
The clock hands
Sweeping up the dust
Sweeping stars from my ceiling
You smile
With your piano teeth
So let light have the hour
Hello wasteland
Stasis stay sis
Two fingers
Escapist pills
And when they all woke up
It was the sixties
This lightship isn't light enough
Coming down
Two fingers
This lightship isn't light enough
This lightship isn't light enough
