lyrics

sate (ft. tim de cotta)

time comes, relentless
running your moments into minutes
and whole days dry

clock tickin’, youth slippin’
beating on you all the time
you feel never enough

when your life is running you down
do the hours justify the money?
when you feel the
weight of longing for everything but,
but you’re never ready
to give it up

and you know it you know it you know that you
got much more than the world
lets you give
and you know it you know it you know that you
want much more than this life
lets you live

and that’s when i know i

see it in your eyes, that your life is passin’ you by
tell me do you feel it?
(do you feel it?)
it’s all in your mind, you gotta stop lookin’ behind
tell me do you feel it?
(do you feel it?)

yeah
ain’t no other remedy, know fundamentally
we depend on, on real joy
to keep us floatin’

if you look into your memory
past all your cheap vanities
when was the last time you felt pure?
and truly human?

when your body is wearing you down
does the money justify insanity?
when you feel your
back breaking you had enough but
still you’re never ready
to break it off

and you know it you know it you know that you
got much more than the world
lets you give
and you know it you know it you know that you
want much more than this life
lets you live

and that’s when i know i

see it in your eyes, that your life is passin’ you by
tell me do you feel it?
(do you feel it?)
it’s all in your mind, you gotta stop lookin’ behind
tell me do you feel it?
(do you feel it?)

Tucked in between dark beats, deft lyricism and immersive vocals lies Singaporean indie-electronic duo .gif (pronounced |dot jif|).

Made up of weish and din, the pair started out in late 2012 as a passion project and shared hobby.
electronic music that combines lush soundscapes with lyrics that are intensely personal and hopefully, meaningful. ... more
