When you first saw me you ah, When you first told me you ah, Don’t let me stall you Don’t let me starve you I left you old and washed out what a weary way to live it’s dragging and I wanted you whole what a dreary game we play it’s draining You left me no choice, you left me no choice I left you old and washed out What a weary way to live It’s dragging And I wanted you whole What a dreary game we play It’s draining It’s cold, it's cold You left me no choice, you left me no choice

How do we remove all of the dirt of our past? How do we wash the shame that she felt off our tongues? How do we scrub the story that comes with this face? How do I see when all you want to do is drag me down? Echo, echo Many years to the east How do we remove all of the dirt of our past? How do we wash the shame that she felt off our tongues? Echo, echo Many years to the east

Oo The lips of the moon The highways here (Lead to nowhere in particular) Cheek of the night, Misty sunlight, Misty sunlight, A road for lovers to hide, Dawn of the light, Sweet night Ah The highways here (Lead to nowhere in particular) Cheek of the night, Misty sunlight, Misty sunlight, A road for lovers to hide Dawn of the light, Sweet night Ah

I like the way we sound How it floats around my mouth How it twists around my tongue And it tangles all around I like the way your skin Is water I want to swim in I'd get lost and never leave In its softness I can breathe You're so warm And you're keeping me warm at night And I'm so grateful for it Don't deserve it And I really want to thank you for it I like the way your skin Is water I want to swim in I'd get lost and never leave In its softness I can breathe You're so warm And you're keeping me warm at night And I'm so grateful for it And I don't deserve it And I really want to thank you for it

God is invisible Love is invisible Creativity it's invisible When you close your eyes Are you happy to live that life? Is it alright? You say its never enough You say where is the sun? You say am I enough? You say where is the fun? You may take part and i’ll see you You play invisible Where are your people? Never enough God is invisible Love is invisible Creativity it's invisible When you close your eyes Are you happy to live that life? Is it alright? If you say it's alright I lost touch with everyone I lost touch with everyone You say its never enough You say where is the sun? You say am I enough? You say where is the fun? If you say it's alright

I’m only a part of that torn woman Here is a jar to put the pieces of my heart Or the remnants of your breath or your sweat The sour smell I’ve tried to wash off of me all day I’ve hoped the aging the sagging are all but a dream But I am thirty something Yet still always smiling I’m only thirty.. A soft place to fall While the shadows crawl Not afraid of dark But terrified of you As I lick my paws The lips of the moon And the stars are bright We walk at night As the cars drive by And I spellbind And you keep an eye out Don’t be polite
7.
I would bleed It would pour all over me Like the sea It would pour all over me If you wait, I’ll disappear I’m gasping for air don’t follow me But these parts But these parts just let me down If you wait, I’ll disappear I would bleed It would pour all over me Like the sea It would pour all over me + I’m gasping for air Don’t follow me
8.
I am earth, I am air, water dripping Be it, feel it, dream it, breathe it Ég leita í ölduróti drauma Djúpu dimmu hafi hugans Út í vindinn ein ég hvísla svarið anda, Fylli lungun af því I feel it under the ground The rumbling in my thighs You think you feel the pulse Beating to your stride And if you don’t see me Do I even exist? I hear it in your sighs And if you don’t see me Do I even exist? And if you don’t see me Do I? Stay Inside Let’s say we’re all free, we're all free, we're all free

about

MSEA Reykjavík, Iceland

MSEA is the solo project of Maria-Carmela Raso. Her music has been described as nightmare pop, ethereal and moody with hints of Julee Cruise and a more demented Anohni. Using electronics, voice, and various instruments, she creates a sound world of her own - exploring the boundaries between beauty and discomfort.
