Art: Kefka's Tower by Yoshitaka Amano
Song: The CN Tower Belongs To The Dead
Artist: Owen Pallett / Final Fantasy
Album: Has a Good Home

Lyrics:

We the dead, we the dead find a country road
Country road, lead the dead from our homes to the ground
Keep a book of the maggots our bodies will snare
'Cause the earth is the earth, no need to travel in the air

The CN Tower is built upon our bones!
The CN Tower will always be our home!

Decorate 'round the base, all the graves of our lost loves
Cabbages, ginger root and a crucifix

Never rode on the plains, never thought I couldn't stay
Had a good run anyway, had a good run anyway
I could fill up the lake with all the things I didn't say
Had a good run anyway, had a good run anyway

From the top of the tower
Radio buzz in our ears
We can see your house from here
We can see your house from here

From the top of the tower
Radio buzz in our ears
We can see your house from here
We can see your house from here

  • I love Owen Pallett! His songs are freakish, but beautiful

  • what an amazing track

    

  • fucking genius eargasm

  • Even though it's weird, the instrumental part always gets to me.

  • I love his voice....sooo much...

  • had just the melody of this and a vague feeling of the voice stuck in my head and after a long hard thought, got it in one. YES.

  • He has a voice that could sooth me after the fall of an atomic bomb ... I find a shelter in the vibration of his vocal chords, in his detachment from the trivialities of life that combines easily with his devotion to the beautification of sound ... i.e., this guy is underrated.

  • @FEAR0226 Eh.

  • @RSLiquid Yeah. About five years ago. ;p This song is amazing.

  • thumbs up if erik bailey/valo brought you here.
