Lyrics
Looking down on empty streets, all she can see
Are the dreams all made solid
Are the dreams all made real
All of the buildings, all of those cars
Were once just a dream
In somebody's head
She pictures the broken glass, she pictures the steam
She pictures a soul With no leaks
Lets take the boat out Wait until darkness
Let's take the boat out
Nowhere in the corridors of pale green and grey
Nowhere in the suburbs
In the cold light of day
There in the midst of it so alive and alone
Words support like bone
Dreaming of mercy st
Wear your inside out
Dreaming of mercy
In your daddy('s arms again
Dreaming of mercy st
'Swear they moved that sign
Dreaming of mercy
In your daddy's arms

"Lui’s tireless attention to detail can be seen through every facet. It plays with freedom and restraint, nestling back into ideas of lightness and weight." - Bearded Mag
Electro art pop that combines the love for sound and song form that is tactile and surprising. She plays with space and impact, glitch and gloss as a way to map mind into sound.
