"This song centres around loss of a child; spiralling aimlessly day after day as each day leaves behind little reminders of the life that once was, or would could have been.
It's title is inspired by the John Cameron Mitchell film of the same name (based on the David Lindsay-Abaire Pulitzer Prize Play). I wrote the song thinking about a miscarriage of a child and Parent fall into their own internal shells (shock), separately, and find it difficult to discuss the tragedy. The film got me thinking about what if in a parallel life the child's life existed and watched as we
watched on from another... to infinity and beyond. Leaving ourselves little messages for ourselves to ignore/find... and the plummeting through the rabbit hole of the dark space depression and anxiety can take you. I cover the same subjects in many songs but try to colour the songs very differently." - dunkie

You lay in bed and it swallows you up
Your lips imprinted on my coffee cup
The door-handle shows wear; you held so tightly
And I fell to despair...
Folding bedding alone and I crumble inside
I’m finding pieces you once used to hide
A locket of your hair; is held so tightly...
I fall in despair...
I’ll hide behind the garden tree
I’m watching you, watching me
And the words don’t come...
The words don’t flow easily (they don’t flow easily)
Take or leave it I will follow you from here
Through the hat and hole an infinite impossibilities
I’m falling faster but the ground never seems to appear
Opened eyes and this doesn’t seem like it’s real to me
I’ll hide behind the garden tree
You’re watching me, I’m watching you
And the words don’t come...
The words don’t flow easily (they don’t flow easily)
Tumble and fall, this rabbit-hole is funnel-webbed and soaring
I fear I’ll never reach this endless horror
I fold upon myself...
Another pill dissolves; I’m crawling faster to the edge
To the edge for you
I’ll hide behind the garden tree
I’m watching me, you’re watching you
And the words don’t come...
The words don’t flow easily (they don’t flow easily)

The 4th consecutive listen, on first release, made me equal part happy/sad... it's a stunning LP, especially "Trippin #9"; this is what Lennon may have been doing if he were alive today. I'm in love. dunkie
It swims, and swirls. Like a lovely combination of Sigur Ros and Mogwai. Hugely cinematic and atmospheric, it's just a dream to hear., and see now that it's on luscious ocean blue vinyl! dunkie
