lyrics

The web the net
The players well met
How do you do with an elvish smile

Light goes in
Only to make a stronger black
Light goes in and life stirs
But oh, alas
Light goes in
It gets taken and quickly turned to black

I was only trying to be a light
And make it bright enough to see by
Enough to see by
I couldn't make it bright

Should have looked straight
And heeded all the signs
Oh they were there
End maker
Golden it's true
But after the show
Hands that played love
End maker
Threw down your ace
In some tired old game
No-one knew was in play
But you love

I was only trying to give you light
And make it bright enough to see by
Enough to see by
I couldn't make it bright

The web the net
The players well met
How do you do with an elvish smile
The web the net the players well met
How do you do
It's been a long while

(spoken)
There had always been two
They made their whole world on their own
They were reckless and restless
But good enough for the task at hand
He was steadfast, earthy and likely to get mad
She was kind of fizzy, excitable or sad
They made a complement for one another
Building mountains, flats and rolling greens
And ways between
The two had never seen past the outside
Into the darkness
Shade made by other
Then it was past
He was gone from her
And they were looking
Everywhere

Cat Came Back Sydney, Australia

When Bandcamp first featured us they described us like this - "This Australian duo excel at writing glitchy bedroom pop songs, ornamented with twinkling keys", so that's us apparently....
Ourselves, we'd probably tell you we're an experimental pop duo from Sydney Australia with one foot (Gina) in the city and the other (Graeme) up in the Blue Mountains.
