about
“Bury Me (By Where My Baby Walks)” comes at the listener with vocal chants, beats and wild horn solos, realizing a dark ecstatic musical direction for the band. The lyrics and music combine to describe a journey of the soul (complete with references to the Egyptian Book of the Dead). The track conjures a religious sensibility with lyrics that read like a hymnal and beats that feel like a ritual. “Bury Me (By Where My Baby Walks)” signals a musical rebirth for the band. The third full-length from Superhuman Happiness, Beacon, arrives on October 19th via the band's new label, Yeggs Records.
lyrics
Bury me by where my baby walks
Everything you dream of in this world comes from below; it's possible for you.
Start again Alpha Omega, different name Nothing you hold will be the same
I am the wicked and the brave Dancing in the light of yesterday Building up a pyramid I build it up and start again
Wings of a vulture say your name Knowing this body ain't the same
I am the wicked and the brave Dancing in the ash of yesterday
Bury me by where my baby walks
When you dance the Nile Will you find me waiting? After every mile Will you find me waiting? With the Pharaoh's treasure Will you find me waiting? As your heart is measured Will you find me waiting?
When you rise again Will you find me waiting? With a dying flower Will you find me waiting? In the final hour Will you find me waiting?
Bury me by where my baby walks
Everything you dream of in this world comes from below; it's possible for you
Start again Alpha Omega, different name Nothing you hold will be the same I am the wicked and the brave Dancing in the light of yesterday Building up a pyramid I build it up and start again
Wings of a vulture say your name Knowing this body ain't the same I am the wicked and the brave Dancing in the ash of yesterday
