Faith / You’re the superficial bait / to my suicidal days / you’re the words that I won’t pray / but I love you anyway / I’m addicted to you /
Faith / You’re the leap I had to take / You’re the back that I’ll keep straight / cause when I kissed you on the cheek / oh, yeah, we kissed, just you and me / I’m addicted to you /

When we we’re young we used to play cops and robbers on our bikes and I would be king of the street / I’d held your hand while I washed the blood off, dear lady Macbeth / and at night we slept like babies / Don’t go don’t go don’t go don’t go /
At summers end we went skinny-dipping in our local creek where I first tried out some booze that I struggled to keep inside / Now every time I dance I keep my eyes closed or I’d cry em out / There’s something about not facing fears / Don’t go don’t go don’t go don’t go /
Words cannot convey / All my love for you / & with my arms outstretched / I am coming back / Words cannot convey / All my love for you / & with my arms outstretched / I am coming back / Words cannot convey / All my love for you / & with my arms outstretched / I am coming back / Words cannot convey / All my love for you / & with my arms outstretched / I am coming back / (I’m gonna go out for a swim and never reach the shore / gonna reach the shore / You’re never gonna make it) /

I don’t want to be over you / I don’t want to be close with you / I don’t want to be in control / You’re so fucking adorable / Just a pinch under the nose / Get me back up on my
feet /
I don’t want to be missing you / I don’t want to be kissing you / I don’t want to submit to you / You’re fucking irresistible / Will you take me in by force? / Will you sweep me off my feet? /
...
A horse / My kingdom for a horse / My kingdom for the sea / that will just end me / We’ve been waiting for / sad and joyless draught / You’re smiling when you’re down / My kingdom for some horse / My kingdom for the sea / that will just end me /

We parted ways in Amsterdam ‘till you called for me in Cadzand-Bad / Your daddy owned a penthouse there where you starred in your show about childhood trauma / From lovers to brothers to ‘just friends’ now / you seized me up as you feigned a smile / ’So, how do you do?’ / We had coffee with amfetamines, while we pretended you’d get clean / I left you to die & you sure didn’t mind /
Connect for a while / Connect for a while / Connect for a while / Connect for a while /

Do you remember June? / A bright eyed young boy, overly twitchy, with a tendency to stutter on long words / You were the most beautiful being I had ever seen / which you had no intention of knowing /
You forced yourself on me / Said it was an act of love / Well, you don’t know what love is / You don’t love me / I think of your curls, your lashes and your smile / You smelled sweeter than most / said it was due to your skin /
You’re there when I’m alone / When I keep my eyes closed / You’re there when I fuck & I can’t get it up / Every time I’m too drunk / Or in love / I won’t forgive you /

Indigo Pastel Rotterdam, Netherlands
Imagine neon signs on a desolate boulevard, night swimming in the Westerschelde, wine mixed with salty seawater, slurred
speech and the sound of the waves crashing onto the beach.
Indigo Pastel could live inside a still of a Wong Kar-Wai film or in a picture by Nan Goldin.
