Lightning Bug — Luminous Veil (Official Music Video)
We’re waking up our channels to prepare for the vulnerable thrill/thrilling vulnerability of releasing new music this month. This is a film Tomonari Nishikawa made for our song “Luminous Veil,“ from our first album, “Floaters“. He’s a filmmaker and artist who had a huge influence on me.

LYRICS:
I pushed plainly through the membrane
We’ve been drifting for so long
We’ve come this far
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Will they shut me out from heaven?
7 8 9 10 11
For this, they’d shut me from heaven
Up so high I cannot see
What’s lying still in wait for me
Sea is strong
Sky is true
I am so in love with you
Skin turns red
I stay blue
Will I stay in love?
When I was young
I disappeared
And my brother found me there
He called my name
I turned away
And the echoes still decay...
(1 2 3 4 5 6 7, will they shut me out of heaven?)
Is it wrong to disappear?
To find Nobody and hold him near?
(if they were the hand that knocked
And I the one with key to lock
Would I forbid them entrance or
Allow them gladly through the door?)
Forget all the playgrounds and the parks
And grow accustomed to the dark...
